QTech Games, the number-one games distributor for Asia and all emerging markets, has launched with noted casino-games supplier FA CHAI in a deal which adds more muscle to its definitive product portfolio, allowing its platform clients to access another multifaceted catalogue.

Renowned for its exceptional game design and forward-thinking tech, FA CHAI also harnesses different mechanics and features, including Extra Bet and Buy features. All of its high-quality content has been GLI-certified, guaranteeing fairness and security, while its gaming suite brings together a varied mix of engaging slots, fishing, arcade and table games.

FA CHAI’s most popular titles and recent releases include: Lucky Fortunes, Chinese New Year, Sugar Bang Bang, Night Market, Zeus, Golden Genie. While these hits are also complemented by immersive 3D fishing games like Star Hunter and Monkey Key Fishing. Accordingly, these games now all form part of the progressive portfolio made available to QTech Games, its partners and the culturally-varied proclivities of their players.

FA CHAI is a rising-star studio that has been providing breakout gaming content across Asia for over five years. While, as the fastest-growing distributor in Asia in recent history, the QTech Games platform continues to boast the broadest gaming portfolio around, localised for each region, with native mobile apps, powerful reporting and marketing tools, alongside 24/7 local-language support.

QTech Games’ CEO, Philip Doftvik, said: “FA CHAI’s state-of-the-art studio has been delivering a deeper, more engaging experience for players across Asia’s patchwork quilt of gaming preferences, so we were immediately impressed. At QTech Games, we recognise the industry’s need for one partner for all emerging markets, and naturally one of the key components for sustained success is having all the right games and products readily at your disposal.

“Asian operators don’t necessarily care if you have the “traditional” game providers. You need positive differentiation and FA CHAI brings that in spades. After all, if you don’t have the fishing game in China, there’s little chance of becoming successful! And it’s a similar story in other markets – just take the Andar Bahar card game in India, or pachinko in Japan, as instructive examples.

“FA CHAI’s exceptional game design and tech represent an organic addition for our leading distribution model, equipping our operators and their players with a more engaging gaming experience. At the same time, we are delighted to be in a position to offer FA CHAI a gateway to new markets, improved visibility and reach, and plenty of opportunities to grow as a brand.”

The Gaming Team at FA CHAI, added: “We’re delighted to have teamed up with one of the sector’s platform powerhouses. Our games are known for their compelling gameplay, superior graphics and a unique ability to engage players from all walks of life – and we recognise that no-one does diversity and across emerging markets quite like QTech Games!

“As a result, we are thrilled to add more authentic and original Asian flavour to QTech Games’ deep well of gaming verticals, and we look forward to their platform taking our games to fresh audiences across more growth territories.”

Blueprint Gaming’s renowned folklore series returns in style as a host of thrilling mechanics lead the way including the lavish Cash Strike Bonus round and the studio’s brand-new Rapid-Fire Jackpots™ in Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike.

Similarly, the game’s eye-catching Cash Strike Bonus Round is triggered when cash symbols land on both reels one and three alongside a Cash Strike Collect symbol on reel two. Optimising chances for grand wins, all coins that land during the bonus game are collected which resets the total number of free spins to three and continues until all free spins run out.

Returns are also maximised for players through the game’s Gold Pot feature, which sees every Cash or Cash Strike symbol that lands per spin added to the Gold Pot meter above the reels. With the chance of dropping at any point during the gameplay, players are guaranteed additional access to the Cash Strike Bonus Game.

The newest iteration of one of Blueprint’s most popular series also sees players benefit from the recent launch of the studio’s new networked Jackpot system, Rapid Fire Jackpots™. Landing five Rapid Fire symbols anywhere on the reels triggers the Rapid Fire Wheel, offering stake multiplier wins ranging from 5x to 1,000x or one of five progressive pots from Mini to Mega King.

Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike marks the latest release from Blueprint Gaming’s jam-packed summer slot schedule. A host of titles are still on the horizon and will all feature the studio’s groundbreaking new system as well as Jackpot King variants.

Jo Purvis, Director of Marketing, PR and Events at Blueprint Gaming, said: “Whilst paying testament to the success of our iconic Irish-themed series, we’re confident the incorporation of the engaging and high-reward Cash Strike Bonus Round alongside our new Rapid Fire Jackpots™ mechanic will make Luck O’ The Irish Cash Strike a real winner with players.
