Platform provider Leander Games in partnership with Pavilion Worldwide Group has developed and will distribute a slot based on the American Emmy-award-winning sitcom Taxi.
The game, developed under a CBS Consumer Products license, will offer 5-reels and 25-fixed-paylines featuring beloved characters from the popular series.
Players will be able to use a “Flag this down” instant prize bonus that centres around the trips the taxis take.
A free spins bonus “Make it out the garage” will provide players encounters with the motley crew from the sitcom such as struggling boxer Tony, art gallery receptionist Elaine and frustrated actor Bobby.
Once a character leaves the garage, they will become wild for the rest of the free spins to potentially return generous wins.
Pick me bonus ‘Let’s get this garage moving here’ will ensure players pay attention to dispatcher Louis as he shouts out trips for the other characters. If the player finds the correct driver, a prize will be awarded – but they must be careful, as three mistakes will see them lose the bonus.
“Taxi will enable players to meet their favourite characters from the TV show and feel the excitement of being part of the team,” said Steven Matsell, chief executive officer of Leander Games. “It continues Leander Games’s tradition of providing exciting, innovative slots games on a variety of platforms.”
“We are delighted with the work that Leander has done to bring this iconic sitcom back to life as an online slots game,” said Jeff Calman, Pavilion’s Chief Intellectual Property Officer. “Leander’s game designers and developers have excelled and we’re sure it will be a hit.”
