US – Zynga prepares for ten years of Game of Thrones with new slots
By Phil - 7 April 2021
Zynga has announced a month-long series of in-game celebrations for the hit mobile game, Game of Thrones Slots Casino, in honour of the 10th anniversary of the acclaimed Game of Thrones television series from HBO. Mapping out a month of new features, events and activities, players are invited to the game’s Iron Anniversary celebration throughout the month of April.
Kicking off the festivities, players can re-experience the realm with the new Archives of Westeros, a limited-time event that sets challengers on an epic tour of memorable moments from the series to reap massive rewards. From ‘Arya’s List’ to ‘Dracarys’, players must complete four themed challenges in this comprehensive quest to earn the bounty.
Rolling out to players mid-month, two new machines will be released for the celebration, featuring both beloved and infamous characters. ‘The Pack Survives’ slot machine will feature the offspring of House Stark including Arya, Sansa and Bran, set against the northern backdrop of Winterfell. ‘The Night King’ slot machine spotlights those that served on the Night’s Watch, from the Free Folk king, Mance Rayder to reluctant leader Jon Snow, as well as the Night King himself.
As the finale to the Iron Anniversary, at the end of the month, the new Spins of Fate event lets players confront the ultimate evil, the white walker army. Earning Battle Tokens as they spin any slot, these tokens give players the chance to defeat the Night King’s army, delivering blows by spinning the Spins of Fate wheel.
Since its launch, Game of Thrones Slots Casino has provided players with a mobile game touchpoint to Westeros. Through special social features like joining a House and game features like ‘Raising a Dragon’ players can experience iconic elements of the realm while connecting with other fans. Since the start of 2021, players have shown their fandom for the series by hatching more than 100,000 Dragon eggs in the game, amassing more than 121 million Collection Cards, and by sharing more than 210 million in-game toasts with one another.
“It’s hard to imagine there was a time when the names Stark, Lannister, Tyrell and Targaryen weren’t part of our shared vernacular,” said Yaron Leyvand, Sr. Vice President of Games at Zynga. “But since the finale of the series and the launch of Game of Thrones Slots Casino, the fire of fandom continues to burn bright for Westeros. We’re excited to invite our players to celebrate the Iron Anniversary, and join us in-game for events, social activities and content that connects us with the mythic series and each other.”
In Game of Thrones Slots Casino, players are immersed in the epic drama, arresting dialogue, iconic characters and riveting musical themes of the series. From cliffhanger moments across the Seven Kingdoms, to sweeping landscapes and locations like The Wall, the slots gameplay is infused with the fire and ice atmosphere of Westeros and its most illustrious inhabitants, including Cersei, Jaime and Tyrion Lannister as well as House Stark members, Sansa, Arya and Jon Snow.
