IGT launches House of Cards on DoubleDown

International Game Technology announced the introduction of House of Cards slots to the company’s social gaming app, DoubleDown Casino.

Leading slot manufacturer International Game Technology announced that it has introduced its House of Cards slot games to its DoubleDown Casino social gaming app.

Inspired by the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning sensation, House of Cards Slots is the latest IGT premium licensed brand designed for play on multiple platforms and premiering on DoubleDown Casino.

The social version of House of Cards Slots complements IGT’s land-based games, House of Cards Power and Money, and House of Cards Welcome to Washington, which were introduced at the 2015 Global Gaming Expo (G2E), and are slated for placement in casinos in the first quarter of 2016.

“As part of our successful cross-platform content distribution strategy, IGT is thrilled to bring another famed licensed title to DoubleDown Casino players with the launch of House of Cards Slots for desktop and mobile,” said Joe Sigrist, DoubleDown interactive senior vice president and general manager. “IGT has a deep history in leveraging licensed brands to create dynamic player experiences, and with House of Cards, we’ve taken iconic elements from the show and created gaming experiences that fans will be able to enjoy at their favorite casino and in a social gaming environment.”

DoubleDown Casino’s House of Cards puts players at the helm of Washington D.C.’s most famous office and conveys the “stop at nothing and conquer everything” attitude of the show’s main characters, Frank and Claire Underwood. Reels full of cast members and iconic “House of Cards” memorabilia including Frank’s class ring, money origami and other patriotic icons from the show make up the symbol set of this five-reel, 40-payline game. Wild symbols trigger free games bonuses and can lead to big virtual currency wins.
