NEW YORK, Nov. 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Slingo Inc., the creators of the
exciting online combination of Bingo and Slots, announces the installation of
the Slingo Classic Bonus progressive game in the New York Video Lottery
Terminal (VLT) market with plans to expand to additional lottery markets in
2009.
Slingo Classic Bonus is a 5-reel, 20-line nickel game with a bonus round
that plays like the Classic Slingo game on http://www.Slingo.com. Loyal
Slingo followers are sure to connect to the Slingo brand with many familiar
icons on the reels, including wild Slingo Jokers. In addition, the games have
a scatter pay function that is triggered when three "Slingo Scatter Symbols"
appear anywhere on the reels; the symbols don't have to be on pay lines to
win.
The new Slingo Classic Bonus game features a statewide progressive jackpot
that starts at $20,000. Every Slingo Classic Bonus game throughout the state
is linked to the top progressive jackpot with a chance to win. There are also
three local progressive jackpots that link Slingo games at each individual
gaming facility. The combination of four progressive jackpots means more
jackpot wins and more excitement for players!
"We, at Slingo, are very excited to bring Slingo Classic Bonus games to
New York's Video Lottery market. For years, Slingo has been extremely popular
in many other gaming markets and we are happy to see that New York customers
now have an opportunity to play this great new version of Slingo slot
machines," said Dave Lyons, VP of Casino Division, Slingo Inc.
