International Game Technology (IGT ) has announced the release of its second omnichannel Wide Area Progressive (WAP) game in Canada, Money Mania slots. IGT is the only supplier currently to offer omnichannel jackpot games with shared jackpot liquidity across the land-based, online and mobile versions of the games.
"We know our players love the excitement that the Powerbucks games offer, so BCLC is thrilled to launch IGT's Money Mania, another title that draws upon the same opportunity for cross-channel jackpots," British Columbia Lottery Corporation (BCLC) COO Dan Beebe said.
"Both BCLC and IGT are passionate about bringing innovative games to players and fueling responsible growth in the industry. We also recognize that BCLC is in a unique position with our ability to offer cross-channel experiences for players. Whether players choose to play Money Mania at the casino or online, we're confident this is another game they'll love."
The game is currently available on BCLC's PlayNow.com and at 22 BCLC-governed casinos throughout British Columbia.
"IGT's Money Mania omnichannel WAP game is designed to frequently deliver mid-to-large-size jackpots, drive cross-channel gameplay and engage BCLC players online and in casinos” IGT SVP of Sales for Canada, South and Central Americas David Flinn said.
"Like Powerbucks, IGT's Money Mania is at the forefront of jackpot innovation and supports IGT's commitment to and leadership in omnichannel content and innovation."
Money Mania is a multi-level progressive game that features player-favorite game mechanics and multiple base-game themes. It includes a $100,000 top-level Money Jackpot along with a second-level WAP jackpot, Mania Jackpot.
With a jackpot-reset value of $4,000, the game's Mania Jackpot is designed to hit frequently, especially with land-based, online and mobile gameplay all simultaneously feeding the jackpot meter.
BCLC was the first gaming operator in the world to offer an omnichannel jackpot game when it partnered with IGT for the 2016 launch of Powerbucks slots.
