Synergy Blue, a supplier of “skill-influenced” gaming machines, announced its arcade-style games have been officially approved for statewide rollout in Nevada, and will go through field trial phases at two Station Casinos properties in Las Vegas, the Palms and Red Rock Casino.
The trial will debut a variety of Synergy Blue games to the Las Vegas market via an initial placement of real-money, arcade gambling machines.
“We’re very excited to introduce our games to the Las Vegas market and to be working with Station Casinos,” said Georg Washington, CEO of Synergy Blue. “This agreement marks a key milestone for our company and the Las Vegas market, as we work together to progress the industry with engaging new experiences.”
Synergy Blue’s skill-influenced arcade gambling machines are currently available in a large format VGM2 cabinet or a standard width (28-inch) slant-top cabinet. The machines are offered in a multi-game configuration, allowing casino guests to choose from seven titles.
The machines placed at Palms and Red Rock casinos will feature a variety of skill-influenced games and offer styles for all types of players—including classic gambling games like video poker, as well as a library of new titles like Candy Ca$h, Mahjong and the Safari Match.
All of Synergy Blue’s games are built on the company’s HAWG (Hybrid Arcade Wager-based Gaming) solution, blending regulatory-compliant, skill-influenced, Class II and Class III gambling with the uninterrupted entertainment of arcade and mobile style play, providing unique entertainment offerings for a burgeoning demographic.
“Synergy Blue’s HAWG platform and gambling solutions are incredibly unique, both in the flexibility they offer our operators and the variety of arcade-style game play they offer to guests,” said Roger Pettersson, corporate vice president of slots for Station Casinos. “We see huge potential in skill-influenced games, and we’re proud to have Palms and Red Rock Casinos offer Synergy Blue’s products to the Las Vegas public.”
Designed with familiar game play and enticing graphics, Synergy Blue’s casual gambling games reflect popular arcade and mobile style game play, adding variety to traditional casino options, as well as a unique marketing element for operators.
