Interblock Installs its Universal Cabinet at Holland Casino Venlo
Interblock, a luxury gaming manufacturer and market leader in electronic table games (ETGs), has installed its first Universal Cabinet (UC) at the Holland Casino Venlo.
The UC suite of games represents a new and unique segment of ETGs designed with players and operators in mind. The UC provides casino operators with a variety of games options, including Craps, Roulette, Blackjack, Baccarat and Sic Bo games, in a solitary environment and in a smaller footprint.
For operators, UC offers complete configuration flexibility in 3, 4 or 5 seat carousels. For players, the UC provides an intimate ETG experience that flows at the playerās own pace. Each cabinet consists of a classic slant top diamond play station and game topper that could contain a roulette wheel, bubble craps generator, card generator or a horizontal video PID displaying results.
āThe pilot project of Universal Cabinet in Holland Casino Venlo is the first such project in Holland as well as in the region. Holland Casino Utrecht project is to follow soon. Our collaborative partnership has produced a strategic game mix offered by Interblock, which was finally chosen by Holland Casino experts. We are thrilled and have high expectations for this installation. We strive to add additional, new games to this premium product set up in the near future,ā Klemen Sitar, Regional Sales Manager at Interblock Europe, said.
āWe expect the new Interblock Universal Cabinet and the range of games to become a great success in our casinos. Holland Casino will be offering the different games catering for both experienced players as well as new players who like to learn to play the classic table games in a new way. We think the new cabinet and the look and feel of the Universal range has an added value to our floors,ā Jelle van Battum, Product Manager Slots at Holland Casino, said.
āHolland Casino offers its guests the enjoyment of safe and responsible gaming and an exceptional experience. Thanks to Interblockās innovative techniques and services, we are able to do this together. It goes without saying that we also have high expectations for this Universal Cabinet with its unique user interface,ā Pieter Boers, Director of Gaming and Services at Holland Casino, said.
