Developed in partnership with games and technology company Nordeus, as well as Win, the bwin.party-backed publisher of social casino games, the new game offers a range of different modes for sports betting.
Players can also bet on virtual matches where the outcomes are determined using real-world stats and the game’s proprietary odds prediction engine.
Additional game-play features include Bet Race where players can compete in groups in a real-time, multi-round bet race for the highest score by placing bets on virtual matches, as well as Interactive Quests where players unlock new challenges as they level up.
“Nordeus fans requested the ability to bet on sports matches, and we’ve been hard at work designing a dynamic new gaming experience for them,” Nordeus project manager Nebojsa Djuric said. “Together with Win we’ve created the ultimate fan experience in Sportster—Bet and Win where football fans from all over the world can bet on real and virtual matches in an entirely new way.”
Barak Rabinowitz, CEO of Win, added: “Sportster—Bet and Win is one of the first and most unique social sports betting games. “Virtual match betting with interactive features like ‘Bet Race’ keep the heart-pumping action going even when there are no real-world matches happening.”
