Blueprint’s enhanced Viz™ slot launches exclusively with Paddy Power Betfair
Jackpot King Deluxe added to classic branded title
Blueprint Gaming, the leading supplier of branded slots to the gaming industry, has enhanced its classic game Viz™ inspired by the popular comic magazine, with the new version launching exclusively with Paddy Power Betfair.
The original release marked Blueprint’s entry into the online market and has now been transformed into HTML5, including the exciting addition of the Jackpot King Deluxe progressive system that offers massive win potential.
Coinciding with Viz’s 40th anniversary, the revamped game retains all the crass from the popular hit including iconic characters Roger Mellie and Johnny Fartpants, allowing players to rediscover the timeless slot that first put Blueprint on the map over a decade ago.
During this 5×3 20-line slot, three Showtime Bonus symbols gain entry to the Big Deal round where players eliminate TVs for a free spins offer worth up to 50 spins.
Long-term Blueprint operator partner Paddy Power Betfair is the first to go live with the newly enhanced slot, which will soon be made available to the developer’s global operator network.
Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing and Relationships at Blueprint Gaming, said: “To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the UK’s much-loved adult comic magazine, we’ve put a fresh twist on the game we first launched in the online market some 10 years ago.
“Adding Jackpot King to the gameplay makes perfect sense, providing fans of the original release with an even greater thrill.”
Mike Phelan, Commercial Director at Paddy Power Gaming, said: “We are delighted to be the first operator to launch the new Viz™ slot on its 40th anniversary. With the addition of the Jackpot King and after last year’s £4m winner on Paddy Power, we know how popular these games are with customers. This year, we’re hoping to add another lucky customer into the Punting Hall of Fame and what better game to do it on than this branded slot!”

SCCG Management Announces Strategic Partnership with Playphoria to Advance AR-Powered Prediction Market Experiences Across Live Sports and Gaming
SCCG Management, a leading advisory firm in the global gaming industry, today announced a strategic partnership with PlayphoriaTM, an augmented reality platform transforming live sporting events into real-time prediction market and sports wagering experiences through smart eyewear and connected digital interfaces.
Through this partnership, SCCG will support Playphoria’s business development, strategic go-to-market planning, and global sales distribution efforts across gaming, sports, entertainment, and venue-based ecosystems. Playphoria’s platform is designed to bring real-time predictive market overlays directly into the user’s field of vision, allowing fans to engage with live event forecasting, dynamic odds, and context-triggered market opportunities without shifting attention away from the event itself.
Built as a patent-pending AR interface for real-time prediction markets, PlayphoriaTM combines smart glasses-native design, live event forecasting, instant pricing visualization, and gesture, voice, or companion-device execution. The platform is built to integrate with regulated exchanges, prediction market operators, sportsbooks, stadiums, teams, and smart eyewear ecosystems, creating a new interface layer for live sports engagement.
Playphoria’s technology is centered on winning the in-venue fan experience first, starting with live sports attendees, early smart glasses users, and high-engagement sports bettors. Its phased expansion model includes pilot activations in select stadiums, integrations with prediction market and sportsbook partners, and long-term platform growth through team, league, and smart eyewear distribution channels. The company’s model is designed to monetize through revenue share on wagers, licensing, subscriptions, transaction fees, sponsorships, and AR advertising inventory.
SCCG’s role in the partnership will include strategic introductions, sales support, market positioning, partnership development, and commercialization support across its global network of operators, platforms, sports properties, and technology partners. By aligning PlayphoriaTM with key stakeholders across gaming and sports entertainment, SCCG will help accelerate adoption of an immersive, real-time interface built for the future of in-venue engagement.
“Playphoria represents a compelling step forward in how live sports, prediction markets, and next-generation interfaces can converge into a more immersive user experience,” said Stephen Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management. “As fan engagement continues to evolve beyond the phone, Playphoria is building a category-defining platform at the intersection of smart eyewear, live event forecasting, and real-time market participation. We’re excited to support their growth and introduce this innovation across our global network.”
The partnership reflects a broader shift toward immersive, hands-free engagement models that blend real-time data, live sports, and predictive participation into a seamless venue experience. As prediction markets scale and smart eyewear adoption accelerates, PlayphoriaTM is positioning itself to become a foundational interface for the next generation of sports engagement.

SCCG Management Announces Strategic Partnership with IntualityAI to Advance Predictive Intelligence for Prediction Markets, Sports Betting, and Emerging Gaming Verticals
SCCG Management, a global advisory firm specializing in the gambling and sports entertainment industries, today announced a strategic partnership with IntualityAI to support business development, commercialization, strategic distribution, and market expansion of its real-time prediction technology, with a major focus on prediction markets and sports gaming applications.
The collaboration will focus on introducing IntualityAI’s technology to operators, platforms, strategic partners, and other qualified counterparties across prediction markets, sports betting, fantasy sports, skill-based gaming, and peer-versus-peer gaming.
IntualityAI has developed a real-time prediction system designed to simulate the human prediction and decision-making functions in fast-moving environments. Its technology processes live conditions as they unfold, recognizes meaningful shifts, and generates early alerts for better-timed decisions. Rather than relying mainly on static historical patterns, the system is built to read what is happening now and project what is likely to happen next.
That capability is especially relevant for prediction markets and sports-related forecasting environments, where timing, momentum, pressure, and situational change can quickly alter outcomes. IntualityAI’s technology is designed to see those changes sooner, supporting earlier decisions, stronger forecasting logic, and more actionable intelligence for dynamic event-driven products.
Beyond sports and prediction markets, the company’s system has broader applications across live assessment systems, healthcare alerting, investment management, website behavior forecasting, and remote predictive monitoring. That broader utility reinforces the flexibility of the technology while SCCG’s initial focus remains on sports-related commercialization and prediction-driven gaming opportunities.
Through this partnership, SCCG Management will support IntualityAI in refining its go-to-market strategy and identifying the strongest commercial opportunities for licensing, pilot programs, strategic partnerships, and broader enterprise adoption. Initial efforts will place significant emphasis on prediction markets and adjacent sports-related forecasting products, while also pursuing opportunities across sports betting, fantasy, skill-based gaming, and peer-versus-peer formats.
As part of the agreement, SCCG will lead strategic introductions to operators, distributors, strategic partners, investors, and other counterparties that may create revenue opportunities, partnership structures, capital relationships, or broader strategic value for IntualityAI.
“Prediction markets are becoming an increasingly important part of the broader conversation around sports, forecasting, and interactive gaming, and we believe IntualityAI is well positioned to bring meaningful innovation into that space,” said Stephen A. Crystal, Founder and CEO of SCCG Management. “What makes this company compelling is its ability to simulate the human prediction and decision-making functions in real time. As prediction markets, sports betting, fantasy sports, and skill-based gaming continue to converge, we see growing demand for sharper insight, earlier signals, and more actionable intelligence. Our role is to help IntualityAI bring that capability to market through the right commercial strategy, the right partnerships, and the right introductions.”
“Prediction markets and gaming increasingly reward those who can recognize change sooner and act before the outcome is obvious,” said Grant Renier, Founder and CEO of Intuality Inc. “IntualityAI was built to simulate the human prediction and decision-making functions in real time, and SCCG gives us the market access to apply that capability across prediction markets, sports-related products, and emerging gaming opportunities.”
The partnership reflects SCCG’s continued focus on helping emerging and established technology companies commercialize solutions that address the future of gaming. By connecting new technologies with qualified operators, strategic partners, and enterprise decision-makers, SCCG continues to serve as a bridge between innovation and scalable market adoption.
