Be the king: A bespoke game created to celebrate LeoVegas’ 5 year anniversary

Gamevy have announced that the bespoke game they created to mark LeoVegas.com’s 5th birthday celebrations has just gone live on LeoVegas’ award-winning casino. Be the King is an instant win game where players choose when to cash out – or whether to risk their winnings as they collect Leo symbols to win up to €1 million.

Be the King is a completely bespoke product from its board to the soundscape. 10 Leo poker chips are hidden on the board – players must search for them. With every chip found, the lion will roar in triumph and players must decide whether to cash out or keep looking. A player has four lives – which reset each time a chip is found. It’s a nail-biting game of courage and judgement as players choose when to take the money and when to risk it!

We’re delighted with the finished look and feel on this new addition to our portfolio,” writes LeoVegas’ Head of Casino, Karolina Pelc. “At LeoVegas we value mobile innovation and being able to offer something different, that is not only customized with our branding, but also gives players an opportunity to instantly win up to €1 million. It is a great way to celebrate our fifth birthday!

The game was created after the two companies discussed the idea at a dinner in Malta. Ten breathless weeks later, the game is fully tested and launched. The speed of delivery and quality of design is testament to how agile the innovators in the i-gaming industry can be.
