The Malta-based company Hero Gaming, which operates gaming sites Casino Heroes and Speedy Casino along with sports betting site Betser, has launched an innovative product branded Blitz which creates an interface to NetEnt’s platform allowing online punters to play six times faster than normal.
Blitz enables the punter to play at a higher tempo without having to wait for the slots to be displayed for each spin, something that is considered time-consuming and unwanted by many players. Blitz allows the gamer to stop the game at any time, always with the updated account balance and remaining spins completely visible.
Tomas Bäckman, CEO of Hero Gaming, said: “There’s a lot going on in the gaming world right now and our focus is always on developing innovative gaming experiences that are both entertaining and technically in the forefront.
“Behind Blitz is a complex technical solution that meets the needs of today’s gamers – it should be easy and fast while the pleasure factor is high. You should not be disturbed by information and graphics if you don’t want these. We’ve spent a lot of time and effort in developing a technical platform that has both flexibility and strength. Blitz is an example of what we can create on it.”
Blitz is developed on NetEnt’s technology as a so-called overlay, a collaboration that has proven to be successful.
”This is a collaboration between two driven and innovative players, utilizing both companies’ strengths. NetEnt has contributed with significant insights and technical know-how in this process. My assessment is that Blitz will be a contribution to the gaming market,” concludes Bäckman.
Henrik Fagerlund, chief product officer at NetEnt, added:
”We are pleased that Hero Gaming has chosen to develop Blitz on NetEnt’s platform. Our ambition is to be at the forefront and we welcome innovative thinking and creative initiatives from our customers. In the future, I think we will see more of this type of products and solutions – to tailor the experience to different gamers. It will be exciting to see how gamers will use Blitz and we are looking forward to following developments.”
