Gibraltar, 23 July 2015 – Champion of Champions is a high-octane martial arts slot with an arcade combat genre theme. It is the first game collaboration created by AppleJack Gaming, Odobo and Coral Interactive. It offers a five-reel, fixed 20-line mechanic, plenty of action and three bonus features.
The anime-influenced artwork gives the game personality while its vibrant characters and distinctive style complements the strength of the storyline. As with all classic arcade fighting games, the ultimate aim is to defeat the big boss ‘Yoshinobu’, who rules a covert crime syndicate with an iron fist. As the story goes, he draws his power from the spirit energy derived from the will of brave fighters and seeks ultimate world domination. Only four warriors are strong enough to face him and one of them may just become the Champion of Champions.
The game has multiple bonus features to keep players engaged. Striking three ‘Versus’ symbols across a pay-line triggers the ‘Champion’s Bonus’ feature. Control of the warriors then falls to the player in an epic four-stage battle culminating with the fight against Yoshinobu. The ‘Golden Dragon’ bonus feature is triggered at random and ignites the symbols in a sensory explosion that turns them wild and brings home some big wins in the base game. The third bonus feature is a ‘Free Spins’ round, where every spin has wilds on the second-to-fourth reels and can further retrigger.
In addition to the high-impact game play, there are 29 achievements for players to collect. This casual gaming feature encourages return visits and persists between sessions, irrespective of the player’s device.
