Wazdan takes the Highway to Hell for a new Deluxe experience
Reading Time: 3 minutes
Friday, July 13; 2018, Malta – A homage to AC/DC’s famous road song, Wazdan’s Highway to Hell Deluxe hits the market ahead of iGB Live! celebrating the “living free” embodied in the song penned by Angus Young, Malcolm Young and Bon Scott. “Like a wheel, gonna spin it” pretty much sums up this piece of entertainment from Wazdan’s studios, who are cranking out hit after raucous hit across this summer.
Highway to Hell Deluxe is a 5-reel 5-payline slot bursting with Expanding Wilds and a Wall Bonus feature allowing players to multiply their wins by up to x5. In the thrilling Gamble feature, players can meet frisky blonde and ginger angels on their easy riders that coast down the highway. The highway sizzles with fun, and Wazdan’s ground-breaking technology sets the player experience at full from the first spin. The Unique Wazdan Features, that include the world’s first Volatility Levels
, Energy Saving Mode, Double Screen Mode and Unique Gamble Feature are a central element to deliver Wazdan’s HTML5 slots for mobile, tablet and desktop.
The themed paytable brings familiar Route 666 symbols such as the Roadie, Biker Girl, Truck and each plays a key role in the excitement. A powerful red truck is the Wild and a substitute for any missing symbol. With Double Screen Mode players can see the pay table and win values of all game symbols in portrait during gameplay, even on a mobile telephone, and be in control of their wins at all time. This new technology provides players with a quality of entertainment that matches the standards that they have come to expect in other environments.
Head of Sales at Wazdan Andrzej Hyla said: “Rock music, no limits, and multipliers are at the heart of the gaming experience in Highway to Hell Deluxe. It’s among the new-breed of innovative, fast-moving Wazdan games which have taken the industry by storm. When it comes to delivering some of the best content in the industry, we know our players enjoy bold and striking games like Highway to Hell Deluxe, and that operators have understood our Passion for Games on top of that. We are going to exhibit at iGB Live! 2018 in Amsterdam with a willingness to present our product to an appreciative audience and to reach more global partners.”
Wazdan’s portfolio of over 100 HTML5 slots is growing rapidly following a further 9 game releases since May 30, a prolific number of releases in a very short time. Apart from Highway to Hell Deluxe, recent releases include Sizzling 777 Deluxe, Hot Party Deluxe, Corrida Romance Deluxe, Fruit Mania Deluxe, Football Mania Deluxe, and two magic games: Great Book of Magic Deluxe and Magic of the Ring Deluxe. These are the kinds of products that partners like EveryMatrix, Videoslots, SlotMillions, Tipbet, Iforium, iSoftbet, Evenbets and Globalplay, amongst others, value and Wazdan aims to keep delivering exciting games like this for all their partner operators and players. Wazdan will be on stand T20 at iGB Live!

Everything comes back around in popularity or at least that is what they say. It has happened with vinyl records and now the same is occurring with retro video games. Yes, classic video games have become popular as children of the 1980s and 1990s have grown older and moved into the workforce. But classic games haven’t just become popular to play. People are spending large sums of money on classic games from 20 and 30 years ago and owners who sell the games are making tidy sums. Gamers looking for classic games online can find free casino slot games inspired by retro video games.
Why are classic games popular again?
Classic video games are becoming popular as many older gamers look for a nostalgia factor. Playing games from their childhood brings back memories of yesteryear. Old Nintendo games are a link to the past for many gamers and it is something they don’t want to lose. Nintendo announced in August that it would release a back catalogue of classic games for a new platform. The move will capitalise on the growing number of people looking for older games rather than newer ones. Many older games have inspired online slots which has driven their popularity sky-high.
In addition to personal reasons, today’s mega-blockbuster video games are seen as too violent by many. While video games of the past were an escape from reality, modern games are based – at least loosely – on the problems of the world. From first person shooters to Grand Theft Auto, many older gamers want to play games that don’t reflect reality.
How much are rare video games worth?
A recent study of rare and nostalgic video games from the last 30 years has found a number of old games selling for large sums of money. According to one source, a copy of Nintendo’s Campus Challenge 1991 sells for around $22,000. Amazingly, the now rare game cost just $30 back in 1991. Gamers who had a copy could cash-in on Campus Challenge if they are able to find it. Other rare games selling for big money include the 1988 Sega Megadrive edition of Tetris and Atari’s Air Raid from 1982.
Ultimate 11 is another that is high on the rare games list. According to reports, only 10 copies exist and each goes for $10,000. Kizuna Encounter had only 15 English versions created and is reportedly worth $13,000. One video game collector paid $55,000 for a copy of both games in 2009.
…And then there’s E.T.
In 1982, Atari rushed E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial video game into the marketplace. Atari gave E.T.’s creator just five and a half weeks to develop the game. The company wanted it out in time for Christmas and to reap the rewards of the holiday season. The rushed game was awful and gamers hated it. It barely sold and Atari had warehouses chocked full of E.T. games it couldn’t sell. Unable to move the games and with Atari becoming obsolete by the mid-1980s, the company buried hundreds of thousands of copies of E.T. and other games in the New Mexico desert. Some have been dug up and rare copies of the game have sold for $1,535 at auction. The excavators of the long-lost cartridges found 900 E.T. games in total. After selling them on eBay, the group made $108,000.
Keen to use the technical know-how of SoftSwiss, combined with their profound experience and insightful knowledge of igaming, the team behind the brand is poised to give it their all to entertain players using the best that technology can offer.
