bwin Launches GTECH G2's New 'Casino Dice' Mini-game

New games also added to GTECH G2 download casino software

bwin will be among the first GTECH G2 licensees to offer the new Casino Dice mini-game developed by GTECH G2’s subsidiary, Dynamite Idea. Both the new Casino Dice and the popular Triple Chance Hi Lo are now offered in full, mini and mobile versions at bwin and will soon be available at other GTECH G2 powered online casinos and gaming suites.

Casino Dice is a single number draw game where players try to predict the roll of a pair of dice. When players correctly predict the combined total of a pair of dice, they win and get a chance to double their money.

“Quick, easy to play mini-games like Casino Dice have proven to provide an excellent supplemental revenue stream for licensees of G2’s casino, poker and sportsbetting products,” said Dominic Mansour, Head of Casino & Games at GTECH G2. “By combining the resources of Dynamite Idea, Finsoft, Boss Media and St Minver, and with the strength GTECH behind us, we are able to offer operators a broader range of igaming products than other games and back-end providers.”

“We’ve found that many of our customers enjoy playing simple side-games. They like the pace and their odds of winning.” said Kevin O’Neal, Press Officer of bwin. “For bwin as a “House of Games” it is important to offer our customers alternatives, and products from GTECH G2 integrate well with our management systems.”

Casino Dice was developed by the games designers at Dynamite Idea, one of four leading digital gaming companies acquired by lottery industry giant, GTECH to form GTECH G2, their new interactive gaming division. The Dynamite Idea team specializes in developing innovative online interactive betting games including several unique hi lo, dice and number games.

In addition to the new products in its suite of mini-games, GTECH G2 is also adding two new games to their Boss Media download casino. Keno Cash and 4Play Hi Lo Bingo will now be included in the downloadable games at online casinos such as Casino-Club.com, PokerHeaven.com and Virgin Casino.
