We’ve produced this title exclusively for Napoleon, and provided them a bespoke product to stand out from the competition.
Our bespoke games allow operators to leverage the popularity of various iGaming concepts, while putting their own unique spin on titles across their lobbies.
Vegas Dice Megaways™ is yet another example of why 1X2 Network and Iron Dog Studio have emerged at the cutting edge of slot development, and illustrates why so many big-name operators are looking to work with us to strengthen their content offering.”
Melissa Deboelpaep, Gaming Content Manager at Napoleon Gaming added: “It started with a casual chat about making bespoke games together a couple of months ago, and before we could even blink Vegas Dice Megaways™ was live!
It was a no-brainer that 1X2 Network would be the ideal partner to extend our dice slots portfolio, and with this release, they’ve proven to be the right choice. We want to keep innovating our content, so Vegas Dice Megaways™ is just the beginning!”
