Lightning Box CEO Q&A: Blood, Gold, and Maths-First Slots
Peter Causley, CEO of Lightning Box Games, gives VSO News his insight into upcoming release Blood and Gold.
Lightning Box Games has been a mainstay of the iGaming industry since its launch in 2004. Its upcoming release Blood and Gold was recently named VegasSlotsOnline News’ Slots of The Week. VSO News spoke with Lightning Box”s founder and chief executive Peter Causley to get his insight into the upcoming game.
Lightning Box Games has been providing online slots to the industry for more than a decade. Lightning Box has benefitted from having US content design in its DNA. The company has recently been able to get its European games quickly approved for US and Canadian online casinos.
Online slot gamers want to be taken on an emotional ride with the chance of a win. They also want new ways of experiencing this. The core of the design will stay the same, but we will try something new alongside it.
Lightning Box was founded by mathematicians. Lightning Box has a math-first focused design. The key game mechanic dictates what illustrations, animations and audio will go into the game.
Blood and Gold has the popular Cash on Reels re-spin feature. The player chooses a side and a battle round takes place during each spin. If the player's chosen side wins the battle, they win all the prizes shown for that spin and if they collect a heart on any winning spin, the spin ends.
The game will launch into the European market on September 21.
The ChickenFox series, three games and the four-game Lightning franchise are the most successful slots for Lightning Box. Silver Lion was the first big hit for the company.
Lightning Box has a game in the Lightning & ChickenFox franchises and a brand-new born again franchise coming in December.
