Alice Cooper an American rock icon is famed for stage shows featuring guillotines, electric chairs, fake blood, boa constrictors, baby dolls, and dueling swords. Spike Games has teamed up with one of the most iconic Cooper songs:’Schools out for Summer’ for use in the world of digital entertainment. When asked about the inspiration for this song Cooper once said “What’s the greatest three minutes of your life?… The last three minutes of the last day of school when you’re sitting there and it’s like a slow fuse burning.”  Bringing one of the best feelings of anticipation to a slot format is why Spike Games has inked this deal. In Britain, the song went to #1 on the UK Singles Chart for three weeks in August 1972.

Rob Anderson founder of Spike Games said “I love everything about this song. Alice Cooper is a huge deal worldwide, he’s as popular in China as he is in his hometown. What attracted us most was how visually stunning Alice Cooper is. Everyone instantly knows the band when they see the famous one of a kind Alice Cooper makeup.  School’s out as a song has a timeless chorus and guitar riffs known by everyone young and old.” Alice Cooper’s merchandiser and licensing agent, Global merchandising Services, said: “ We love the team at Spike Games and their whole approach to the Alice Cooper brand. Rob’s knowledge and experience in slot game design stretches back 25 years and the quality of Spike Games product speaks for itself.”

Spike Games has an existing library of proven slots aimed at the UK and international markets. This new must have game will be available for mobile, tablet and PC in HTML5 hosted on the SpikeRGS and is available for licence and distribution Q1 2016.

The game, which requires players to pick the score in six of the weekend’s English Premier League fixtures, is available on the firm’s colossusbets.com B2C site and is to be rolled out to the firm’s B2B partner sites over the next few weeks.  The B2B product will be built into the Colossus B2B partner consoles, allowing partners to offer free play tickets across Colossus Bets’ multi-sports pools, to different segments of their customers.

Bernard Marantelli, founder and CEO of Colossus Bets said: “We have built a free-to-play game which puts all other predictor games to the sword in scale and functionality.

We have also added a very slick social media option that rewards our clients for sharing – a win-win CRM tool.”

“This game will also give our B2B partners an unparalleled tool to acquire, reactivate and retain customers. It provides a soft entry level for new customer acquisition, can be used to reactivate lapsed customers and it can be used to reward active customers. We think this product can become the industry’s biggest CRM tool.”
