Scientific Games Launches Jin Ji Bao Xi Outside Asia

Scientific Game announced the launch of Jin Ji Bao Xi, one of its most successful games in Asian markets, to the rest of its gaming jurisdictions, including the U.S. Class III market.

Scientific Games Corporation announced that the company has launched Jin Ji Bao Xi, currently the No. 1 linked slot product from Scientific Games in Asia, throughout the rest of its markets, including Class III casinos in the U.S.

Following on the company’s internationally successful Duo Fu Duo Cai series, Jin Ji Bao Xi was created by the same studio that developed the hit slot game 88 Fortunes.

Jin Ji Bao Xi, along with the company’s New Wave XL cabinet, is launching with the theme Rising Fortunes. It showcases a unique Player’s Choice bonus feature. If six or more Red Gong symbols displaying credit prizes land on the reels, a Feature Selection is triggered and the sum of the credit prizes creates the Shou Bonus, which can be won in the feature selection options.

Players choose between a Free Games Bonus and the innovative Top Up Bonus in which Gold Gong symbols award the Shou Bonus and lucky Green Gong symbols award the sum of all Gong symbols, resulting in a rising fortune!

The Free Games Bonus awards eight free games, during which additional free games can be won and each Gold Gong symbol that lands on the reels awards the Shou Bonus. There is also a Jackpot Feature where players pick from gold coins to match three lucky symbols that correspond to one of four jackpots, the top two jackpots being near-area progressives.

Jin Ji Bao Xi—Rising Fortunes is a five-reel, 243-ways-to-win game, and is now available on the hugely successful TwinStar J43 cabinet or the new TwinStar Wave XL. It can be found in casinos throughout North America, South America, Europe and Africa.

“Since Jin Ji Bao Xi was released in Asia and Australia, it has already proven to be a smash hit, attaining impressive sales and performance numbers,” said Bob Parente, senior vice president and chief revenue officer of Scientific Games. “We are thrilled at the initial performance of this game and are very excited to offer this outstanding game to our customers and players across the globe.”
