RPM Gaming launches CricketSim
Data-driven product brings a new level of reality and in-play pricing to the in-demand virtual world
RPM Gaming, an emerging force in online and retail betting and gaming, has launched CricketSim, a new simulated cricket product that delivers a best-in-breed experience for operators and their players struggling to find realistic, engaging alternatives during the sporting shutdown.
This innovative offering fuses the latest algorithms with a deep database of real-world cricket stats to create the most authentic and accurate representation of live-traded cricket available. The sport’s favourite formats, including Test, ODI and T20, are all featured, while every match is based on actual teams and players. Operators can then press these games into the service of varying schedules and timeframes across a glaring sportsbook void.
Partners now can offer these industry-leading API data solutions – designed for pricing precision, comprehensive coverage and ease of integration – both pre-game and in-game.
This virtual product comes into its own in the in-play domain, where a host of short-form betting opportunities (e.g. over-by-over runs and next man out), coupled to informative ball-by-ball text commentary and live scoreboards, help recreate the feel and excitement of engaging with a real cricket match, without the onerous demands of risk management.
CricketSim’s advanced statistical modelling drives a realistic-yet-random ball-by-ball betting experience and is the first virtual offering to market from RPM Data, the bespoke pricing and data-feeds wing of RPM Gaming, which provides the fastest feeds and lowest-latency data on the market, allowing its partners to stay ahead of the game.
Richard Thorp, Director of RPM Gaming, said: “As most operators pivot their attention to developing vertical-spread during these unparalleled times, virtual sports are emerging as a go-to product for plugging the gaps after this live sports suspension which has followed the outbreak of COVID-19.
“Historically, virtuals have already surprised many with their ability to prize double-digit market share away from real sports betting. So, this trend will naturally extend in the current climate where their convenience is unmatched. In-play was the missing piece in that virtual jigsaw, but now CricketSim can fill the void with accurate in-play odds and innovative content that affords fans the chance to still enjoy their favourite sport in a familiar live betting environment.
“RPM Data was set up to provide zero-latency cricket trading feeds on the biggest range of matches and markets to serve the voracious appetite for live cricket betting across the planet. While we can’t wait to roll out this unique feed when the real cricket action resumes, CricketSim was a logical stepping-stone product that we could create in the meantime for all our interested partners. It showcases our precise pricing ball-by-ball, and elevates in the in-play UX on virtuals too.”

HelicopterX: Another innovation from Smartsoft
SmartSoft, a leading provider of non-traditional casino games operating on the B2B market since 2015. The creator of groundbreaking and unique games, with nearly a decade of experience and 70 games to its credit, SmartSoft has pioneered several unique gaming experiences. Among its groundbreaking creations is the flight-based non-traditional casino game JetX, which has set a benchmark in the industry. SmartSoft has introduced its latest marvel, HelicopterX, which has quickly attracted millions of users worldwide. Launched in November, HelicopterX has already took the 4th position in gaming rankings, thanks to its immersive gaming experience, this game sets a new standard for visual excellence and artistic innovation in the gaming industry.
SmartSoft’s CEO, Guga Gotsadze shares his thoughts with us: “HelicopterX represents a significant leap forward in our commitment to providing innovative and engaging gaming experiences. Our team’s dedication and creative approach have truly set this game apart in the market.” HelicopterX features a helicopter as the main object and a diamond as the trigger, combining dynamic casino gameplay with interactive elements. The game’s exceptional visual design, stunning graphics, and captivating animations engage players from the first glance. Every element, from detailed environments to dynamic visual effects, teleports players in a stunning digital world.
The creation of HelicopterX was a collaborative effort involving multiple departments at SmartSoft, each contributing their expertise to deliver a top-tier product. The process began with an initial concept, where the team decided to make the game distinctive – unlike similar games in the industry that are solely based on mechanics, while working on HelicopterX, they decided that the game would feature modern visuals, be as user-friendly as possible, and incorporate outstanding mechanics. After this they planned the core algorithms and game logic. Following this, the back-end development phase involved meticulous coding to bring these ideas to life. The subsequent front-end development phase integrated sophisticated designs with the game logic, ensuring seamless animations and functionality across various devices.
In the design department, the initial stage involved creating drafts or “skeletons” of the game’s visual elements. The objective was to visually express the game concept in the most engaging way possible. Multiple versions of the environment, diamond, and helicopter were sketched before finalizing a distinct and appealing environment. This stage was crucial for the product’s success, as the game needed to be both visually appealing and intuitive. After finalizing the designs, the animators brought these elements to life, ensuring a seamless and captivating visual experience. Continuous testing and optimization were conducted to ensure technical efficiency and eliminate any bugs, providing users with an error-free gaming experience. “Our rigorous testing process and attention to detail ensure that HelicopterX delivers a flawless and engaging experience for all players,” the CEO added.
One of the standout features of HelicopterX is the Diamond feature, which enhances the overall gameplay experience. This unique element helps players navigate through the basic Multiplayer faster, adding depth and excitement to the game. The design elements, including symbols, backgrounds, and animations, are coherently aligned to support and enhance the game’s theme, contributing to a cohesive and immersive gaming experience. HelicopterX is a testament to SmartSoft’s dedication to innovation and excellence in the gaming industry. From the captivating visuals to the rigorous testing, every aspect of the game is handled in-house, fostering a sense of pride and ownership among the team. “We believe HelicopterX embodies the spirit of innovation and excellence that SmartSoft strives for. We are proud of our achievement and excited to share this experience with players around the world,” said the CEO.
With the successful launch of yet another game, Smartsoft is set to fly even higher and reach new heights. Every new creation from SmartSoft prepares new adventures and unforgettable experiences.
