With the industry’s largest expo opening its doors later this (January) month, ICE(i) exhibitors have been advising the market what to expect from their participation. Among them is Wagerworks, the Internet gambling software development subsidiary of IGT which offers a popular range of online games to Internet gamblers through its own licensees and through deals with major companies like 888, PartyGaming, Ladbrokes and Betfair.
As part of IGT, WagerWorks has access to a broad catalogue of quality and diverse content, and its ICE(i) presentation this year will feature a preview of two brand new ‘household’ game titles: Dungeons and Dragons: Fortress of Fortune based on the popular role-playing game and film, and Battleship: Search and Destroy an all-time favourite of classic battle strategy.
WagerWorks will feature both games with full audio and cutting edge graphics and offer visitors the opportunity to try them out and win one of two Nintendo Wii games consoles to boot.
Commenting on the past year and IGE/ICEi 2009, Oliver Lofthouse, Director and General Manager of IGT-UK Gaming and WagerWorks, said, “2008 was a successful year for WagerWorks and our business results reflected a positive step forwards. Since joining [the company] in September I have recognised the importance of combining top brands together with great game mechanics in order to deliver top performing games and this will continue to be our focus.
“IGE/ICEi 2009 will be the platform to preview the latest of our games and launch the company towards greater success in the year ahead. I look forward to seeing new and existing customers on our stand at the show.”
