Unibet and Genesis Gaming Announce World's First Simultaneous Launch of a Video Slot Game in Flash, HTML5 and Native Device Formats

LONDON, April 2, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --

Unibet's Triple Play launch of Mystic Monkeys in its online casinos, mobile casinos and Spin City app at the same time represents an industry first

Today, Unibet and Genesis Gaming are pleased to announce that the brand new video slot Mystic Monkeys has been launched simultaneously in Flash, HTML5 and Native formats in both the Unibet Desktop and Mobile Casino plus the Spin City app. This is the first time a video slot game has been simultaneously launched in Flash, HTML5 and Native Device formats. By providing all three delivery options simultaneously, Unibet can offer a consistent player experience across all three channels, and players can enjoy the same game in different contexts, at their desk, in a mobile browser or from a smartphone application.

"We are pleased to achieve this significant milestone. By making game releases live simultaneously on all our Casino channels, it creates a better experience for our players. Once they hear about a new game, they can play the game on their preferred channel, or on all three. Players appreciate the convenience of finding new games available in all our Casino channels," said Daniel Eskola, Head of Gaming at Unibet.

Mystic Monkeys is a fun and vibrant five-reel, 50-line video slot featuring three playful wise monkeys under the watchful eye of Buddha. Three to five Scatters will trigger the Mystic Monkey Free Spins where one of the monkeys acts as an additional sticky wild with the Buddha to generate bigger and more frequent wins.

All three versions of the game are hosted and delivered via Relax Gaming. Spin City is a mobile application for Apple iOS and Android that is produced by Relax Gaming for Unibet. The Spin City version of Mystic Monkeys features both a trophy collection mechanism and coin triggered bonus features to offer players an enhanced experience.

"A 'Triple Play' release, where all three formats are made available simultaneously,  is essential for engaging players optimally where and when they want access to our games," said James Watson, Director of European Sales for Genesis Gaming. "Our partnership with Relax and our proprietary development tools made it possible to offer this unique milestone for Unibet. We have four more games scheduled for 'Triple Play' release this Spring for Unibet players to enjoy."
