SkillOnNet Launch Live Arcade Game ‘The Coin Pusher,’ with Betterlore

SkillOnNet and Betterlore have unleashed a completely unique game on the industry, one that marries the nostalgia of traditional arcades with a truly high-tech experience. ‘The Coin Pusher’ lets players control real coin-pushing machines beamed live into their homes from Betterlore’s studios in Europe. This one-of-a kind gaming experience is now live on the SkillOnNet network in selected markets and then rolled out globally in the coming months.

Coin-pushers, also known as penny pushers or dozers, are popular in end-of-the-pier arcades the world over. The Coin Pusher works in exactly the same way. Players drop coins into the playfield, aiming to push others over the edge. Then they sit back and watch the action in real time, with each coin and chip that falls instantly credited into the player’s wallet.

With over 100 playfields in different configurations available, players always have access to a game, though each player can only control one playfield at a time. The Coin Pusher guarantees minimal latency, ensuring a smooth, real-time gameplay that accurately reflects each move and coin drop.

It’s the first game from Betterlore, a startup that aims to couple popular physical machines with the power of online technologies. In doing so, the company says it is building an entirely new category of online gaming involving live mechanics and two-way interactions between the player and gaming machine in real time.

SkillOnNet is a global entertainment powerhouse that operates dozens of market-leading igaming brands in numerous regulated jurisdictions across the world. These include household names like PlayOJO in the UK and Ontario; PlayUZU in Spain, Mexico, Peru and Buenos Aires City; BacanaPlay in Portugal, and DrueckGlueck in Germany.

Jani Kontturi Head of Games at SkillOnNet said: “This is not just about pushing coins, it’s also about pushing boundaries. The Coin Pusher blends the excitement of classic arcade machines with the convenience of online gaming – and you won’t find anything like it anywhere on the internet. Betterlore is a truly exciting new company that is bringing completely new ideas to the industry. We can’t wait to see what they come up with next.”

Maximilian Schmitt Sales & Business Development Manager at Betterlore said: “Coin-pushers are beloved by people across the world, and everyone knows how to play. That’s why we’re delighted to partner with a truly global company like SkillOnNet on our very first game, because we believe The Coin Pusher will be a hit in multiple markets.”
