Introduction
GigaSlot Wireless Casino targets the new area of casino gaming on mobile phones, cell phones, smart phones, and wireless PDAs. GigaSlot has recently released the first client/server game GigaSlot available on the www.gigaslot.com portal. This is one of the first implementations of five-payline, three-wheeled slot machines, which is the same for wireless devices supporting Java(R) technology as well as for the Internet.
All mobile phone games are available also on the Internet without downloading for all standard Web browsers, including Mac, AOL, WebTV, and MSNTV (R), and on a broad spectrum of wireless devices supporting Java technology under the same player account.
GigaSlot Game Concept
The wireless gaming market represents a lot of new challenges, as well as several obstacles. The biggest challenge is that the player can play really everywhere in a comfortable enough fashion in an alternative way to classical Internet casinos, the obstacles are technical, as for example limited wireless device possibilities, required proper device setup for network awarded applications, support for a broad range of different and not fully compatible types, as well as business, which is currently the lower familiarity and understanding of all required wireless technologies among players.
The smaller display size of wireless devices brings the requirement to design enough simple games, but which are still fun to play. Such games should have skill-based features as well as some story behind them. They must be optimized for several different sizes of displays of wireless devices, as well as for their Internet versions.
Recently GigaSlot released its first game, which is a five-payline, three-wheel slot machines, where 0.5, 1, or 2 coins can be bet independently on each payline. During the game, the player is allowed to hold wheels, and he collects star bonus symbols whenever there are 3 or more star symbols shown anywhere on the reel window of the machine. When the player collects the 3rd star, he wins a bonus spin for which all payouts are multiplied by 10 times.
The GigaSlot players need to own an ordinary mobile or cell phone, smart phone, or wireless PDA, which supports Java(R) technology. Then the player also needs a wireless plan from the wireless network provider enabled for data transfers via analog CSD (R), GPRS (R), or EDGE (R) technology. The games can be downloaded from wap.gigaslot.com within a few minutes; the account registration, as well as the initial deposit can be done through the downloaded application without the necessity to switch to a classical Internet Web browser.
