Yesterday, April 16, Digital Chocolate launched its first mobile game for real money Slots! Pocket UK in the UK, according to Inside Mobile Apps. Read about the new game and how you can enter the gambling entertainment market in the material.
For all aspects related to possible fraud, checking accounts, payout of winnings and the like in Slots! Pocket UK is responsible for the Betable platform, which last year already brought Big Fish to the British gambling market.
“Betable has helped us go all the way to real money games,” said Jason Loia, Digital Chocolate’s chief operating officer. – “In addition, they have a license to engage in gambling in the UK.”
As explained by Inside Mobile Apps, the latter circumstance is of critical importance, since there are only three ways to get into the gambling market. First, you can sign a contract with an existing real money gaming operator. So did Zynga, coming out on bwin.party. Secondly, any company can get a gaming license itself, but this is a very long and expensive procedure. Thirdly, it is possible to acquire a company that has such a license, but such a step will require restructuring and, possibly, unnecessary proceedings with the country in which this license was originally obtained.
After weighing all the pros and cons, Digital Chocolate decided to enter the gambling market together with Betable, becoming one of the ten gaming companies also cooperating with the platform.
“We are not experts in the gambling industry, unlike Betable. We are experts in creating cool social games for mobile devices and the Internet. So this cooperation definitely makes sense,” Loya stressed.
As you can understand from the name Slots! Pocket U.K. are slots. So far, there are only seven “one-armed pirates” in the game. Each car has its own original mini-game, apart from the usual spinning of the reels. By playing mini-games, the user gains game experience and levels. The higher the level, the more cars are available for the game and the greater the possible winnings. Yes, the more friends a player has, the more combinations bring winnings.
The game also has a bonus system that rewards users with virtual currency, but it is inactive when users play for real money.
At the moment Slots! Pocket U.K. is only available to iOS users.
