Its state-of-the-art technology combined with Microgaming’s vast content offering makes for a winning partnership. Wheelz has what it takes to become a firm player favourite, and with David Hasselhoff as the face of the brand, it will do so with added glitz and a little Hollywood glamour.” – said, Neil Bancroft, Microgaming Head of Partnerships.
“Microgaming has been instrumental in the success we have enjoyed with our first two online casino brands, Wildz and Caxino. Given our rapid growth, expectations are high for Wheelz, and with the support of Microgaming and its market leading content, we are confident the brand will be as successful as its sister sites. I’d like to thank Microgaming for the support and assistance its team has provided Rootz to date and look forward to even greater success now that Wheelz is live to players in markets around the world.” – concluded, Lasse Rantala, Rootz Limited CEO.
