Summary:
The table game market has a new entrant in the form of Australia-based digital games producer Lightning Box. The game requires players to pick between three and 10 numbers from a grid of 80 possibilities. Once numbers are chosen, the play round begins, and 20 numbers are randomly drawn and displayed on the grid, with at least two matching numbers awarding a win.
Light & Wonder Inc unit Lightning Box, an Australia-based digital games producer, says it has entered the table game market by adding a new game to its product range.
The game requires players to pick between three and 10 numbers from a grid of 80 possibilities. The option to pick numbers themselves or have them determined randomly is available to players.
Once numbers are chosen, the play round begins, and 20 numbers are randomly drawn and displayed on the grid, with at least two matching numbers awarding a win. A “lightning respin” round can be triggered if you land six or more awards.
The initial two weeks of the product will be exclusively on the Rank Interactive platform. It will be made available to customers of Light & Wonder’s OpenGaming aggregation platform, as well as the Lightning Box digital slot products.
The vice president for game development at Light & Wonder was quoted in a press release as saying: “Keno demonstrates Lightning Box’s flexibility to produce engaging and entertaining titles, with this being the first table game created by the studio.”
The new product was a blend of traditional table game with a lightning respin mechanic that we are confident players will enjoy.
Light & Wonder, formerly known as Scientific Games Corp, acquired Lightning Box in August of last year.
