Leading distributor teams up with non-traditional specialist to underscore its status as a definitive one-stop-shop for igaming

QTech Games, the leading game distributor for emerging markets, has launched with innovative games developer SmartSoft Gaming in a new deal for the platform which adds more muscle to its definitive product portfolio, allowing its clients to access another multifaceted catalogue.

Founded in Georgia in 2015, SmartSoft Gaming has swiftly cemented its reputation as a unique igaming software studio by creating many sought-after games, as well as delivering top-quality promotional tools with which to acquire new players and deepen players’ engagement in responsible fashion.

SmartSoft is proven across a number of verticals including slots, keno and roulette, alongside a category of crash titles, known as XGames, whose flagship creation is the hugely popular JetX. SmartSoft’s games are designed with immersive narratives, eye-catching design and high-class gamification components.

The developer’s offering features a rich variety of other dynamic games and slots, as well as virtual casino content. It represents just the latest studio to benefit from QTech Games’ unrivalled speed-to-market and the machine-learning excellence of its AI games lobby, which curates targeted portfolios of games for operators across Asia, LatAm, Africa and the CIS-facing markets.

The ascendant crash-games domain continues to go from strength to strength with a truly global fanbase, particularly in breakout territories like LatAm and Africa, where SmartSoft’s innovative and authentic gameplay have placed its premium content, like JetX, in the vanguard of this must-have igaming vertical. Accordingly, these games now all form part of the progressive portfolio made available to QTech Games, its partners and their culturally-diverse appetites of their myriad players.

Accordingly, integrating this content from one of the most innovative and creative online casino game developers adds more muscle to QTech Games’ thriving platform, which is bringing the widest range of online games to emerging territories with established names, such as Evolution and Yggdrasil, sitting alongside the sector’s rising-star providers.

As the fastest-growing distributor in Asia and other growth markets, QTech’s platform boasts the broadest gaming portfolio around, localised for each region, with native mobile apps, powerful reporting and marketing tools, and 24/7 local-language support.

Philip Doftvik, CEO at QTech Games, said: “We’re pleased to have signed another progressive agreement with a brand like SmartSoft Gaming, whose games need little introduction and are routinely raising the bar for cutting-edge mobile and web gaming.

“SmartSoft produces a range of innovative and interesting titles across a range of gaming verticals, including the in-demand crash format, so it’s fantastic to be able to bring these compelling titles to the QTech Games platform. We firmly believe these games will resonate strongly with our operator partners’ customers around the world and are thrilled to bring SmartSoft aboard.”

Would you dare to summon the most terrifying of Egyptian plagues? That is exactly what’s being asked of players in Fantasma Games’ latest blockbuster slot, Shadow Summoner Egypt, already showing outstanding player engagement KPIs from its initial limited market release. Shadow Summoner Egypt is scheduled for general market release in the very near future.

Players must travel along the Shadow Summoner to unlock the Tomes of Locusts, Blood, Sacrifice and Firestorm if they are to find the wonderful treasures that can be discovered in the ruin and destruction these tomes bring to the reels.

And what are these treasures? The Tome of Firestorm turns itself into a Multiplier and destroys 4-12 random symbols. For each symbol destroyed, the Multiplier increases by 1x.

The Tome of Locusts brings an explosion to the reels, turning itself and all neighbouring paying symbols into the same random paying symbol. Meanwhile, the Tome of Blood turns 1-4 neighbouring symbols and itself Wild for even more win possibilities.

The Tome of Sacrifice wields great power and can bring one of four upgrades to the reels. This includes turning all of the low symbols into their corresponding high symbols before the Tome of Sacrifice itself becomes the corresponding high symbol of the last upgrade.

But that’s not all. Sometimes the Tomes of Blood, Locusts and Sacrifices will turn into a Multiplier after activation. That’s not the only time Multipliers can appear – they can drop at any point during the game and range from 2x to 100x.

The darkness of the plagues is followed by the brightness of the sun. Sun Free Spins see players receive four spins initially with a guaranteed Tome in play. If enough winning symbols are collected during the initial spins, another four are retriggered.

The total win Multiplier is semi-persistent and is applied to the win if there is a Multiplier on the reels at the end of a winning spin.

Then there are the Moon Free Spins where all Tomes can land. If a further four bonus symbols drop, players receive an additional 10 Moon Free Spins. Again, there is a semi-persistent Multiplier in play.

Fredrik Johansson, CEO and Founder at Fantasma Games, said: “Shadow Summoner Egypt is the latest in our Shadow Summer series.  Players must be bold and brave, summoning plagues and tomes if they are to discover the exciting and thrilling treasures they contain.

“Shadow Summoner Egypt really showcases the excellence of our games, combining a great theme with striking design, a compelling narrative and gameplay that promises to put players on the edge of their seats spin after spin.

“This is a solid addition to our portfolio of premium online slot games and we look forward to seeing players travel along the Shadow Summoner in their quest for potentially big wins”.
