International Game Technology announced the successful installation of its Star Wars™ Droid™ Hunt video slot in five Monte-Carlo Societe des Bains de Mer (SBM) casinos. Located in Monaco, the five casinos that now feature Star Wars™ Droid™ Hunt are Casino de Monte-Carlo, Casino Monte Carlo Bay, Casino Café de Paris, Sun Casino and Casino Rascasse.

“We are very excited to have the latest Star Wars casino game at our properties,” said Eric Guazzonne, director of slots of the Monte-Carlo SBM casinos. “Our players truly enjoy the Star Wars theme and we are thrilled to offer them the newest game on our casino floors. It’s an engaging game with fantastic graphics and it’s full of brand appeal.”

Star Wars Droid™ Hunt, new to IGT’s Premium Products (also known as MegaJackpots®) lineup, virtually takes players far, far away. The recognizable Star Wars theme makes the game attractive to a diverse demographic.

“We are happy to partner with Monte-Carlo SBM to bring IGT’s latest Star Wars casino game to their customers,” said Craig Churchill, IGT senior vice president of international sales. “For more than six years, casino players in Europe have enjoyed Star Wars games, and Star Wars Droid™ Hunt is set to be one of our biggest games from this successful lineup.”

Star Wars Droid™ Hunt offers simple game play, multiple bonus opportunities, frequent feature activity and sustainable game sessions. Familiar Star Wars sounds and images enhance the player experience with strong brand appeal and entertaining features. Plus, a wide area progressive top award appeals to players seeking that big jackpot win.

The intergalactic excitement starts in the base game; after any reel spin, a Star Destroyer might appear, triggering the Star Destroyer Wild feature, in which TIE fighters blast from one to 10 symbols on the reels, making them wild.

Four interactive bonuses create a high-energy game with plenty of action to engage players. Three bonus symbols trigger the Droid™ Hunt feature, which then instructs players to press a red button that awards one of four bonuses: Droid™ Match, Astromech Free Spins, Ion Blaster or Tusken Raider.

The Star Wars Droid™ Hunt game uses IGT’s MEGAfx Surround Chair, which wraps players in comfort and delivers seat-shaking sound to bring the galactic action alive. Visit IGT’s YouTube Channel to watch a video about the Star Wars™ Droid™ Hunt video slot.
