PRODUCT TEST DRIVE: IGT ‘MULTISTAR CHAMPION SERIES – PLATINUM’

December 5, 2016/in Hero Products /by LindaJoannides

Position: As a multigame product it works particularly well in outdoor gaming rooms where small numbers of machines often limit the game choices. With 6 games in the pack you can increase the game variety for players. There are 3 long term $1 dollar games favoured by regular punters in this pack so you can also place this machine in your high denom area.

Denomination: Mixed denominations. Includes 3 very strong dollar games that most regular punters will be familiar with, as well as 3 low denomination games each with different features.

Game Pack: ‘Taipan’ (5 line), ‘Heavyweight Champion’ (5, 10 lines), and ‘King of the Castle’ (5, 10 lines) – all well-known and very popular $1 games now available as a 20c. The 1 cent games ‘Navaho Legend’ and ‘Blue Moon II’ are Ultra Chance games where players increase their stake through an ante bet to purchase an extra scatter symbol to achieve the feature faster. Both the 1c ‘Dragon Master’ and ‘Navaho Legend’ are multiway games where players are chasing scatters rather than line pays, giving them the perception that it’s easier to win.

SAP Profile: 3 levels of on-screen jackpots that fit a growing market in NSW.  Available in two different start-ups. If you are targeting your higher end players then the $9000 grand jackpot is your best choice, but the $5,000 start up will cover all markets and will be large enough to interest top players without leaving you too exposed to high jackpots.

Volatility: On this game, volatility varies based on which game is being played. Bigger players will naturally get a good run on the high denomination games, but Blue Moon-Extra and Navaho Legend (both 1c ante bet games) are also quite volatile. Only the 1c Dragon Master falls in the medium volatility range

Performance: Currently ranked at No2 in NSW hotels* rankings since its entry into the market.

Negotiating a Purchase: Available only on the CrystalDual-i machine so you won’t be able to get this one in as a conversion unless you already have a Crystal machine. Before buying a new machine talk to the rep about a game conversion to a ‘Multistar World Champion’ for any Neo machines you have on your gaming floor. (Some Neo’s may require a button panel upgrade)
