Playtech powered Casino.com has reported that one of its European online punters has won a jackpot worth GBP 599,380.45 on Playtech’s Age of the Gods Live Roulette.
The lucky player, a factory worker and father of three, was playing Roulette on his mobile after a night shift when he hit the big time by unlocking the Ultimate Power Jackpot. This is the highest tier in the four-tier mystery jackpot that links both the Live Roulette product and all Playtech’s Age of the Gods slot games, providing players with the opportunity to win bigger.
The player, who has chosen to remain anonymous, told casino management: “I was crying when I saw the big jackpot amount hit my account and I was in total shock. I have three children and this jackpot will change my life. I’m so happy!”
Playtech has published a video showing the dealer’s reaction to the big win here:
The Live game shares jackpot liquidity with Playtech’s Age of the Gods Casino suite of slot games while also offering players a desktop and mobile Roulette experience.
Due to this Playtech ONE innovation players have the chance to not only win on the table if they hit the right number, combination of numbers or colour, but also to simultaneously win cash sums across a four-tier mystery jackpot with every spin of the wheel.
The Live product is the first of many experience games that will feature jackpot functionality, and one in a suite of Playtech products that uses the Age of the Gods brand, including RNG Roulette, and retail and online slot games.
With every spin, a small percentage a player’s stake goes towards a four-tier progressive Age of the Gods Mystery Jackpot, meaning that there is a jackpot level for all types of player.
The ability to share casino liquidity via a Live Casino product also gives operators innovative ways to market the Age of the Gods brand including driving traffic into the games and rewarding players in real-time using both Free Spins in casino and the Live Casino free spins equivalent of Golden Coins.
The new game was developed at Playtech’s new studio in Riga, Latvia that opened earlier this year (see previous reports).
Shelly Suter-Hadad, COO and managing director, Mansion Group, said: “Here at Casino.com we love making dreams come true – so seeing one our players hit such a huge jackpot is incredible! We strive to constantly be innovative and take a conscious decision to deliver a mobile-first approach, so we are delighted to see a record-breaking win on mobile”.
