US – Ainsworth to show Grand Fortunes series at Indian Gaming Association Tradeshow
By Phil - 13 March 2023
Ainsworth Game Technology will exhibit more than 30 gaming cabinets across Class III and Class II markets, including the North American debut of the Grand Fortunes series, at the annual Indian Gaming Association Tradeshow on March 29 to 30 at the San Diego Convention Center.
Grand Fortunes will follow the recently released Treasure Spirits and Ca$h Stacks Gold game series that also offer the Hold ‘n Stack Feature as part of a bonus that can award a Standalone Major Jackpot and a Linked Grand Jackpot. These two companion titles – Wild Wins and Temple Riches – offer player-selectable multi-denomination play with the chance to win a Linked Progressive Jackpot, instant bonus prizes up to 800x, and the Hold ‘n Stack Feature.
Also on show will be Ultra Shot, a two-game series scheduled to be available in North American casinos in Spring 2023. It provides a player-selectable multi denomination experience on a Linked Progressive title. These two games – Tiger and Panda – offer the Ultra Shot Feature, which gives players a three-level Coin Collection bonus. New games will be available on both the A-STAR Curve XL and A-STAR Curve cabinets.
Deron Hunsberger, Ainsworth President – North America, said: “Our focus at the show will be on sharing with our valuable Tribal partners some new game concepts and strategies aimed at improving low denomination performance on casinos floors.”
“Ainsworth has invested heavily in R&D over the past year, and we believe new Linked Progressive titles like Treasure Spirits, Ca$h Stacks Gold, Ultra Shot and Grand Fortune represent significant progress in our ability to attract players,” he added.
Ainsworth Chief Technology Officer David Bollesen added: “The games we will showcase at IGA will give a snapshot of the step forward Ainsworth has taken in improving the overall sight of our games, the overall sound of our games and the general action-packed experience of our games. We’re excited to be able to share our work with Tribal gaming operators.”
Ainsworth will also showcase new titles like Fai Cai Coins, a 243-ways Linked Progressive series with multiple bonus levels; Falcon Cash and Coyote Bucks, a pair of low denom “Win Before” Progressive titles based on Ainsworth’s High Denomination games; and Cash Attack and Prime Time, new high limit three-reel games offering a persistent state bonus feature.
The show will also see the North American debut of an improved Gambler’s Gold MultiGame Keno package. The Gambler’s Gold package now has significant upgrades. Improvements include the additions of the 2 to 20 Card Keno, Seahorse Keno, and the QuickSpin Super Sonic 7s slot to the nearly 20-game pack.
Gambler’s Gold focuses on Keno by offering an array of bonus Keno experiences that give players to chance to win extra draws, Free Games, multipliers, and other bonus awards. It will be available in many Class III Tribal markets soon.
