This Morning hosts Alison Hammond and Dermot O’Leary launched WordSurge live on air, inviting thousands of viewers at home to join the live mobile competition.

WordSurge combines the delights of recent word game crazes with the thrills of live gameplay and has been specially developed for ITV’s free This Morning app. Players can compete, battle and interact with each other to win cash prizes, sponsored by ITV Win.

The partnership between ITV and Live Tech Games offers new entertainment for UK audiences and allows viewers to become part of the game using their mobile phone, rather than simply watching the action on their TV screens. WordSurge has already secured the number one spot in both the App Store for Free Games and the App Store for Trivia Games. As well as having over 1.6 million minutes of game play.

“We are thrilled to announce the launch of WordSurge on ITV’s This Morning. We cannot thank ITV enough for the support it has given Live Tech Games, and are looking forward to seeing the results that this fun, entertaining and competitive game creates. We’re thrilled to be targeting a different audience with our new word play game and can’t wait to see the response WordSurge receives from players,” Samuel Worsley, co-founder and co-CEO of Live Tech Games, said.

Live Tech Games aims to create captivating, competitive mobile experiences that will engage customers. WordSurge offers a unique, exciting mobile experience for viewers in order to encourage everyone to play games. Viewers are instantly transformed into players as they go head-to-head in a live virtual tournament, taking place after the This Morning show. In game, viewers compete to find the answers to simple trivia questions in an evolving grid of letters, with a number of prizes available to winners of each tournament. The game rapidly rose to claim the spot of number one free game and number one trivia game in the App Store, surpassing huge titles like Wordle, Roblox, Candy Crush, Pokémon Go and FIFA Football.

“We are planning to grow WordSurge in the coming months, expanding its audience and enticing more players. We are also discussing the possibility of introducing different combinations of prize allocations to the game and hope to add more new features as the game progresses. We see huge positive growth for WordSurge and are anticipating further advances for the game,” Samuel added.

This is a really exciting new form of interactive entertainment that will enhance our reach with a younger audience and create innovative sponsorship opportunities for brands,” Bhavit Chandrani, Director of Digital and Creative Partnerships at ITV, said.

SHINE ON DRAGON’S DIAMONDS

This text contains puns. Reader discretion is advised.

“Dragon’s Diamonds” is now live, a fang-tastic 6×5 new scatter-pays slot from the Berlin-based developer Hölle Games with wins of up to 12,000x.

Unlike the miserly reputation they’re known for (a tall tail), the Hölle Dragon is a generous beast (with a fiery personality). With every matching cluster that lands, the Dragon will breathe flames onto the reels – removing winning symbols and allowing more to fall into place. There is no limit to the number of potential cascades that can occur here, so lucky players can quickly scale-up their hoard of wins.

Plus, hitting 4 or more scatters to enter the Free Spins will unlock the Feature Multiplier, which cumulates all Multiplier wins across the entirety of the Free Spins. Re-triggers can be clawed out too, with only 3 scatters needed.

For any players who find the base game is dragon-on, there is the Stake Boost feature, which increases the chances of hitting the Feature for a slightly higher stake, or also the option of directly entering Free Spins via the Feature Buy. That’s no fire-drill!

The game is now available for MGA with other territories winging it this way soon.
