DigiDeal’s new games: Top electronic table game company
unveils three new games at G2E Asia
Casino International – June 2007
One of the world’s most successful electronic table game companies, DigiDeal
Corporation, is unveiling three new exciting games at G2E Asia in June. East meets
West with our newest games, Taraccab™, DragonBacc™ & Buddha’s Fortune™.
“The Asian
market is ready
for games that
resonate with
their culture
and histor y.”
Targeted for the rapid growth of the Macau and Asia table game markets,
DragonBacc™, Taraccab™, and Buddha’s Fortune™ will be fast paced, profitable
additions to any pit. Already being played in Cambodia, DragonBacc™ delivers the
appeal and social interaction of classic Baccarat with card curls and player/banker
reveals. Played on the next generation of DigiDeal’s hosted, multi-player electronic
table system, DragonBacc brings all the classic appeal and social interaction players
enjoy.
Making its debut at G2E Asia, Taraccab™, features the new Mahjongg-styled Dragon
Deck from Gamelot®. This unique game plays like face-up Baccarat, but the winning
hand is determined by the best match of the best cards. Luck is with you if the hand
you bet on reveals paired Feng Sui or Dragon cards. Incorporating the favorite
elements of Baccarat and Mahongg, Taraccab delivers excitement and variety to the
casino floor.
The latest addition to the DigiDeal game portfolio, Buddha’s Fortune™ combines the
thrill and imagery of slots and with the feel and camaraderie of traditional table games.
Players can “Double Down” on their original bet as well as buy a “Bonus Card” in order
to win big with the best three-of-a-kind match. This table promises mass appeal for
both slot and card players.
“The Asian market is ready for games that resonate with their culture and history,”
states Dave Krise, VP of Design and Development at DigiDeal. “We believe these new
titles will be well-received by players and bring some game diversity to the casino
floor.”
Dealing 700-800 hands per hour, the DigiDeal platforms bring a new level of security
and accountability never before seen in table games. With DigiDeal’s electronic table
platfroms, associated equipment costs such as cards, peeking devices and shufflers
are things of the past. The benefit of faster play improves productivity that goes directly
to the bottom line. DigiDeal electronic table games are the perfect blend of fun and
ease of play that players are looking for with the security and profitability the casino
operators demand.
Featuring a live dealer or host, DigiDeal’s DTS (Digital Table System) can be
configured to use traditional chips, or offer full virtual play by using on-screen virtual
chips and player banking through its built-in bill validation and ticket printing
technology. The DTS is the only hosted electronic table game that has full network
capability and is compatible with all SAS back-end management systems. The DTS, in
its full virtual configuration, allows the system to meet many “slot only” jurisdictional
requirements. And, with our new “Automated Play” feature, this table can practically run
itself.
DigiDeal’s newest platform, the DTS-X, or X- Table™ is a stand-alone, Linux based
game system. The table can be configured to accommodate from 4 to 10 players. This
new system incorporates fifteen inch player LCD touch screens and a large center LCD
display to display the game action. The X-table™ is fully networkable and compatible
with all SAS back end management systems. The X-table’s graphically enhanced
virtual environment allows the players to interact like never before with life-like chip
betting, card peeking and flipping. And this platform is not limited to just poker! DigiDeal
has a vast portfolio of patented games being developed for the X-table. No longer
limited by human capability, this technology allows stand-alone electronic table games
to go where they have never gone before.
“We felt that
it was time to
join teams with
IGT because
the industry
was receiving
the product
so well.”
Players love the simplicity and speed of DigiDeal games. There are no long down
times waiting for a shuffle because a truly random digital shuffle takes only a few
seconds. Plus, the intimidation factor is gone for new players worried about making the
right play decision. Friendly status graphics help keep the player updated to the game
play and hand outcomes.
Today’s casino players are more sophisticated and are looking for that social
interaction/experience made popular by televised table game play. Their inherent
comfort with electronic game play and their desire for fast paced, more complex games
makes DigiDeal tables a perfect blend of fun and ease-of-play that players want, with
the security and profitability that casino operators demand.
With over 300 tables in operation around the world, and a heavy demand from
established and emerging markets, DigiDeal is excited about their new alliance with
gaming technology leader, IGT.
“We felt that it was time to join teams with IGT because the industry was receiving the
product so well, and because we were getting inquiries world wide,” states Mike Kuhn,
CEO of DigiDeal.”We had need for certain progressives, game content and technical
expertise that a company like IGT could bring to the table.”
