Spot The Ball, Gextech's latest development of its Fantastic League(TM) virtual football game, will kick off on the Octavian Symphony platform (available in both Downloadable Games and Lottery Editions).
Spot The Ball is a new and unique multi-lingual football game that updates a universally recognised and proven betting format using the latest technologies. Using its groundbreaking, versatile Smart Stitch(R) technology, Gextech is able to reproduce the complexity of team sports and replicate betting opportunities readily available in real football matches. In Spot The Ball, realistic animated action sequences are played out on the playing terminal screen. The ball is passed from virtual player to player, as well as being deflected from its course by tackles and interceptions. The winning number is the square containing the ball when the action is randomly stopped. The game has an easy-to-use interface with all odds displayed. An on-screen betting panel allows customers to increase bets and select other betting options.
"We are delighted to have teamed up with Gextech and excited by the
potential of Spot The Ball," said
"We are excited to be working with Octavian as they have extensive
experience of delivering game content on a broad range of playing terminals,
and a wide range of land-based venues," added
With global interest in football set to increase in the run-up to the
FIFA World Cup 2010 in
Spot The Ball, previewed at IGE in January and due to be showcased at other major gaming exhibitions during 2009, is currently available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Cantonese and Mandarin.
