New York-based GameCo, Inc. announced that its new skill-based video game “Pharaoh’s Secret Temple” is now live in Atlantic City at the Tropicana and all three Caesars Entertainment properties. It is the second game to go live on GameCo’s Video-Game Gambling Machine (VGM), the arcade-style machine with a controller allowing players to apply skill in shooter games and other traditional video games.
In “Pharaoh’s Secret Temple,” players embark on an adventure to unlock the riches of the Pharaoh’s temple by matching gems to collect rare treasures before their time is up. Pirates Gold Studios developed the original game specifically for GameCo’s proprietary VGM platform.
Next month, GameCo will debut “Nothin’ but Net,” a basketball-themed game developed in collaboration with Free Range Games. With “Nothin’ but Net,” players hit the basketball court with 16 shots to win big. Players’ virtual skill in making layups, jump shots, free throws and half-court bombs is challenged in a fast-paced game, which also includes bonus money balls.
“As skill-based gambling offerings are introduced to casino players, continuing to broaden our VGM catalog with new games that address multiple video game genres is a top priority for GameCo, and we believe a critical deliverable to help drive new revenue on slot floors,” said Blaine Graboyes, co-founder and CEO of GameCo. “We are committed to providing unique and engaging content that will appeal to current casino players and attract new audiences, by developing a variety of relatable video-game gambling experiences that feature familiar entertainment based on popular brands from movies, TV, video games and casual-style games.”
