The game recreates all the excitement of one of the most prosperous gameshow formats of the 21st Century. Playtech already has a long association with the popular brand with its loyal Bingo room.
The New Game:
The player has one ticket with fifteen numbers, representing the suitcases, with the sixteenth suitcase being the player’s prize. After the balls are drawn, the prizes and numbers are removed from the ticket, and at the same time, the banker’s bar is being filled. The banker will make the player his first offer when there are seven numbers on the bar.
If the player likes the deal, he can accept it and the game session ends there. If the player is not into the deal, he can buy five balls to continue the game. In that case, if the player rejects the deal from the banker, the suitcase will be opened to reveal the prize.
Also, players can decide to boost one of five prizes before the round begins and enter the mini draw side game, with rewards based on the first twenty balls drawn.
Bringing the excitement:
Edo Haitin, Managing Director at Playtech Live Casino, comments: “We’re delighted to be bringing the excitement of one of TV’s most enduring formats to Live. With the addition of the mini draw side game, allowing players to buy multiple tickets with up 6 points of decision making during the game, whether it be to buy more balls or take the bankers offer, Live Deal or No Deal – The Big Draw brings the player a new level of engagement and strategical involvement. For many players, Live play is as much about the experience as it is about gambling, and we’ve seen a growing trend towards gameshow-style formats – which is why we’re so confident Live Deal or No Deal will definitely be a big draw.”
