BARCREST GROUP ROLLS OUT THE D.I.C.E.
04/01/2010
After a highly successful industry-wide test Barcrest Group is now launching the D.I.C.E. SWP cabinet and games.
The D.I.C.E. cabinet has been developed to deliver quality SWP content from Barcrest Group and partner Fatspanner. The stylish cabinet features a 22" high resolution LCD screen delivering superb game presentation. Using reliable Fatspanner software and proven Barcrest Group MPU technology, the D.I.C.E. cabinet benefits from industry standard peripherals including the SR5i coin mechanism, compact hopper and serial meter.
A suite of innovative new games for the D.I.C.E. cabinet has been developed and is being released during December. The new titles include Pop the Question, a game aimed at the younger generation or the avid music fan, and talkSPORT – a quiz for sports fans which takes advantage of the popularity of the talkSPORT radio format. Tribal Towers is a classic strategy card game designed to suit players of all ages, while Star Lines, featuring astrologer Russell Grant in a fantastic reaction skill game, is definitely ‘one for the ladies’!
The D.I.C.E. SWP cabinet has been tested by the IOA and Sceptre Leisure with all major UK retailers and has earned a reputation for performance and reliability. Paul Langham, of Town and County is delighted with the D.I.C.E. cabinet and commented: “The combination of Barcrest Group MPU technology and Fatspanner software, both with a powerful track record for reliability, means customers can have complete confidence in this product.”
Mitchells & Butler has been a key participant in the test, and their results have shown the D.I.C.E. returning indexes well over 100, week after week. John Appleton of Mitchells & Butler says of the D.I.C.E. cabinet: “it is the most promising new entrant into the SWP market and we are looking forward to ‘rolling out more D.I.C.E.’ in our estate!”
Tim Kennedy, Sales & Commercial Director for Barcrest Group, added: “We’re very excited about the forthcoming launch of the D.I.C.E. product and we have a well-designed roadmap for continued development of the games library with both Barcrest Group and Fatspanner content.”
