Mohegan Sun in Connecticut announced that Riches of the Golden Dragon, the newest title in the Video Game Gambling Machine series from GameCo, Inc., will be added to the ROGD_logo_.png gaming floor in Casino of the Earth. The first installation of the game in the U.S. is now live near Seasons Buffet at Mohegan Sun.
“Providing entertaining and unique gaming experiences across our beautiful casinos at Mohegan Sun is always something we are focused on,” said Ray Pineault, president and general manager of Mohegan Sun. “Being the first entertainment destination to launch GameCo’s Riches of the Golden Dragon, not only in the Northeast but in the United States, is something we’re very excited to roll out for guests.”
Riches of the Golden Dragon features three dragon tiles, and within each there is a reveal of either an immediate cash reward, tokens that can be used in Mini-Games, or a chance at a Bonus Round or Mini-Game.
The Bonus Round and Mini-Games are where skill comes into play, and also where tokens earned up to that point can be used to instantly win cash inside a Mini-Game. In some cases, a selected tile will take players directly to a fun Mini-Game like the “Melt Coins,” where players melt falling coins, while avoiding falling rocks, with an electric current by pressing the corresponding buttons.
There is also a “Match Dragons” Mini-Game, where players use the buttons on the deck to match three of the same type of dragon on screen at one time. The Mini-Games provide players with a return to player (RTP) of 100 percent or more when playing optimally. At any point, the initial selection among three tiles can reveal an immediate progressive jackpot win up to $5,000.
“The pick-and-win play style provides a really unique gaming experience, and we are thrilled to have Mohegan Sun as our first launch partner,” said Blaine Graboyes, founder and CEO GameCo LLC. “Mohegan Sun’s commitment to providing the newest and best experiences to their guests makes it an ideal location for our debut.”
