Monday 29th September 2008 Tournament Skill Games, Got Juice?
With the casual and games for fun market being the most popular segments in on-line gaming, a $2.5 Billion annual market beckons – and it is rapidly growing! The St. Minver, Boss Media & Finsoft family brings to market a pioneering tournament skill gaming platform – Skill Juice (Skilljuice.com).
Skill Juice comprises tried and tested games for fun in cash tournament format. In partnership with independent operators like Butlins, the first to join the Skill Juice network, Skill Juice offers not just a new stream of gaming revenue, but a unique way of acquiring and retaining real cash players. ”There a number of skill game offerings in the market, but we wanted to create the largest scaleable back office and game engine where over a million players could play concurrently in a heads up tournament format' says Gary Shaw, Chief Innovator within the New Media and Sports Betting Co. and founder of Skill Juice. 'Even our games are intended to be different.'
The network is hosted and maintained by white-label gaming services leader, St Minver, which brings to Skill Juice the tried-and-tested strategies to successfully manage Boss Media's highly popular International Poker Network and St. Minver’s own International Bingo Network. High score matches are held daily and tournaments arranged frequently.
Shaw quips, 'We hope that over the coming months many of our group’s existing and new customers around the world will adopt this.' Say’s Shaw. “Together our distribution would be truly Global.”
Skill Juice currently offers ten entertaining games, but will eventually offer a broad selection of casual games designed both in-house and by popular third-party developers. 'Games like Juicetetris, Jurassic Golf and Albatross Overload are easy to learn, yet give players a challenging, fun game experience,' says Shaw. 'By the end of the year, Skill Juice will release four new games to quench your gaming thirst.'
