Betware delivers 6 new Instant Games to the Danish Lottery

20.9.2005

Crossword (Bogstavjagt): The customer gets 21 letters which he must scratch off on a corresponding crossword table. In order to win a prize the customer must collect 3-10 words. The game also contains a four letter bonus word with a special prize.

Eldorado: The customer must get a set of numbers in one line on any of the three pyramids in this game.

Sea Battle (Sænke Slagskibe): The customer has 27 boxes to scratch. If the scratched area reveals one or more pictures of ships the customer wins a prize.

Miniquick, Quick Lucky Number and Quick Match 3: All three games are variations on the original scratch game.

The customer may choose a “demo mode” of all these games to familiarize himself with how to play them.

Betware and Dansk Tipstjeneste have been working together since 2001, where Betware’s platform has made it possible for Dansk Tipstjeneste to offer the games that are sold at retailers also to be sold on the Internet. The games sold on the Internet are: sports action games, lotto games, keno and joker and now, the instant scratch games.

“The Betware Gaming Platform is powerful and flexible. The easy integration of secure instant games into our Platform is more proof of its flexibility,” says Stefan Hrafnkelsson, Betware’s CEO and Managing Director.

“We have worked with Betware for many years and have full confidence in their solution. The games were easily integrated into the Betware Gaming Platform currently used by us,” says Jorgen Falsvig, Director of IT at Dansk Tipstjeneste. He also added that, “The instant games were delivered, like all other projects Betware has provided before, complete and in time”.

Within this project Betware has also successfully installed and included a new instant bet generation and audit system for these games. The system, called Trusted Play? will be used to generate the bet outcomes for instant games offered by Dansk Tipstjeneste. The Trusted Play? system, developed by Szrek2Solutions based in the USA, will be used by Dansk Tipstjeneste to verify the integrity of the instant game outcomes produced as well as satisfy remote audit requirements of the Danish Gaming Board.

Walter Szrek, who was at the Betware Headquarters in Iceland, while Trusted Play? was being integrated into the Betware Gaming Platform for Dansk Tipstjeneste says, “I am very impressed by the quality of the Betware product and professionalism of their team. It was a very smooth and fast project to integrate our betting system with their internet platform.”

Since Betware’s Gaming Platform is flexible and can adjust and accommodate most random generation and auditability systems, it was quick and simple to connect Trusted Play? to its platform. Both solutions are constantly evaluated and tested for security.
