BetGames launches debut tap game Penguin Rush – Casino & games

Leading games provider BetGames has bolstered its RNG product portfolio with the release of Penguin Rush, its inaugural tap game that fuses strategic gameplay with crash-style multipliers to deliver a dynamic gaming experience.   

The action takes place on a frozen lake in Antarctica, where the adventurous penguin is tasked with crossing the ice without being hit by a sledge. Each tap of the following lane moves the penguin forward, where the designated prize can be collected. 

Successfully navigating the penguin further across the ice increases the value of subsequent prizes, but moving one lane too far can result in a collision with a sledge, forfeiting the accumulated winnings.

BetGames has designed the title to facilitate players in crafting their own strategy with four difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, Hard, and Daredevil, with 24, 22, 20, and 15 lanes to cross, respectively. Opting for a higher difficulty enhances the size of the multiplier, boosting win potential but also increasing the likelihood of a collision. This provides the player with full control over how much they are willing to risk and for what potential reward size. 

Following the completion of a successful cashout, the level the penguin would have reached is revealed, allowing players to analyse gameplay trends to aid in implementing an optimised betting strategy.

Penguin Rush, which can be tailored to include bespoke branding, showcases BetGames’ commitment to diversifying its RNG suite with simple, entertaining content that offers real win potential, helping operators bridge the gap between sports bettors and casino games.

Ian Catchick, chief product and business development officer at BetGames, said: “Our priority at BetGames is delivering maximum entertainment value as efficiently as possible to capture players’ imagination and make effective use of their valued time.

“The simplicity and uniqueness of Penguin Rush, coupled with the strategic elements introduced by different levels, provides something a little different to what we typically see in the genre. It grants the player a feeling of control to aid and align their strategy with the level of risk and reward they wish to play with.

“The distinctive gameplay is supplemented with the potential for bespoke branding to place the operator at the heart of the action, and we have no doubt this is a recipe for success.”
