Austin Power Hits Nevada
Casinos
- LAS VEGAS, NV - A new video slot machine game based
on the "International Man of Mystery" will begin making
an appearance in Nevada casinos April 10, and will turn
up in other jurisdictions by early May. The Austin Power�
game, which was already approved by Gaming Laboratories
Inc., received Nevada Gaming Control Board approval on
April 4. Approval in Mississippi was also received earlier.
"We
had a lot of fun developing the game and designed it with
the goal of making players laugh, maybe even gasp," says
Joe Kaminkow, IGT's vice resident of product development.
One bonus round features the alluring Fembots and in another,
players help Dr. Evil eliminate his incompetent subordinates
by flipping selected henchmen backward into a pit of flames.
IGT says that while all ages will be attracted to the
''fast-paced, outrageous action," the Austin Powers video
slot was developed with players in their 20s and early
30s in mind. The bright yellow cabinet and ''Groovy Baby!"
topper will make the Austin Powers game easy to spot on
the crowded casino floor.
An
estimate of 1,300 new machines will be installed in casinos
throughout North America.
