Total Entertainment has announced that all online casinos owned by its wholly owned subsidiary, Intercapital Global Fund Ltd., will begin offering Bingo Blast, the first in a series of new multi-player casino games.
The game was created and licensed to Total Entertainment by Atlantic International Entertainment, an independent software developer from whom Total Entertainment also licenses other casino gaming software.
"Our relationship with Total Entertainment has been an exciting project for Atlantic. Total's gaming choices show a keen understanding of its player base," said Richard Iamunno, president of Atlantic International Entertainment. "We are pleased Atlantic has contributed to Total's success and look forward to pursuing more opportunities in our partnership."
Bingo Blast will offer a gaming experience that includes voice-overs and effects that will shout numbers and announcements in (initially) English, Spanish or Chinese. Users can play their cards manually or choose an auto-play feature which will allow them to control multiple cards. Winners and prizes will be broadcast live over the network.
The game should be available online within a week and Total Entertainment plans to hold several daily bingo sessions. The international bingo market has shown much growth, with more than 100 million bingo enthusiasts worldwide.
Total Entertainment 's online gaming sites can be found at www.theonlinecasino.com, www.slotsvegas.com, and its three Asian sites, www.dragongaming.com, www.theluckydragoncasino.com, and www.dragonbet.com. The company is also developing a portal site (www.go2total.com) which will offer products and merchandise on online gaming, casinos, sports, sports betting, financial information, news and other related topics. Total Entertainment expects to debut the site in the third quarter of 1999.
