WMS’s "Reel ‘em In" installed in France for the first time

Groupe Partouche will also install “Reel ‘em In Compete to Win” at eight of their other casinos before the end of 2010.

Ari Sebag, General Director of Groupe Partouche noted: “We wish to offer our customers the most exciting entertainment experiences by maintaining a selection of the most attractive games. The concept of this community game is unique, as it gives players the chance to compete against each other through their chosen avatar. Players are compelled by the potential to register their individual scores, which they can find and improve at each subsequent visit. This competition encourages player relationships in a friendly atmosphere.”

Sebastian Salat, President of WMS International, added: “We are very thankful to Groupe Partouche for the confidence they have shown in our most popular games and are pleased to further our long-term relationship with this major customer in France.  WMS believes the success of Reel ‘em In Compete to Win in France is confirmation of this game’s global appeal and we plan to bring this product to additional European casinos in the months and years ahead.”

As the industry innovator of Community Gaming, “Reel ‘em In Compete to Win” takes the exciting game concept to the next level. It features a competitive element never before offered in a slot machine, allowing players to select from four characters to compete in an exciting fishing contest for a grand prize, all in high-definition. Overhead leader boards add to the excitement and publicly recognize leading players.
