IGT social casino enhances popular online game

News on 5 Nov 2014

International Game Technology’s Wheel of Fortune game has proved such a success on the company’s DoubleDown Casino social offering that the company has augmented the inventory with Wheel of Fortune Triple Extreme Spin.

The new addition to DoubleDown has bonuses and gameplay “….straight from the casino floor to a desktop or mobile device,” a statement from IGT claims.

Players can spin for the Mini Wheel Bonus, where scatter symbols transform into three mini wheels that spin simultaneously, or the Triple Extreme Bonus, where the player picks from a selection of envelopes to reveal chances to win big  when the giant triple wheels are sent spinning.

“DoubleDown Casino players have shown that they love playing Wheel of Fortune Double Diamond, so we’re very excited to follow up with the launch of Wheel of Fortune Triple Extreme Spin on desktop and mobile devices so our players can play anytime, anywhere,” said Will Daugherty, general manager of DoubleDown Interactive.

More Wheel of Fortune titles are currently in development for DoubleDown Casino, as part of IGT’s multi-year agreement with Sony Pictures Consumer Products to develop mobile and online games for DoubleDown Casino and for-wager online play worldwide through 2024, Daugherty revealed.

Launched in land-mode in 1996, the Wheel of Fortune slot machine cemented IGT’s lead in Wide Area Progressive technology and has developed into one of the most successful games in the industry, minting nearly 1,000 millionaires and delivering $3 billion in jackpots. IGT has created more than 200 land and online variations of the game.
