Vesaro partners with D-BOX technologies to equip up to 30 Kindred Concepts entertainment centers with 60 racing simulators
D-BOX Technologies Inc. , a world leader in haptic and immersive entertainment, is partnering with Vesaro, a British designer and manufacturer of high-quality racing simulators for the new Kindred Concepts entertainment centres. This new type of entertainment center provides an immersive, state-of-the-art Formula 1 racing simulation experience, gamified for a mass audience in a unique global licence agreement with Formula 1®. Vesaro will design, engineer, and build unique and advanced racing simulators meeting the high standards of the Formula 1 organization, which will be deployed in all Kindred Concepts centers. A first venue equipped with 60 racing simulators will be installed in the city of London, England by the end of 2022, with potentially as many as 30 venues worldwide over the next five years.
The pandemic paved the way for sim racing and the market is growing quite rapidly. The quality of racing games has greatly improved, and we are now approaching the realism of car racing both in terms of the virtual representation of established racing circuits as well as the sensations felt when driving a race car. The deployment of Kindred Concepts will undoubtedly benefit the identification and training of a new generation of Formula 1 racing drivers by allowing them to familiarise and memorise the different circuits and various race car settings, without a time limit and at a fraction of the cost of a real racing practice session.
“We really believe in this concept of Sim Racing centers and are proud to have been selected by Vesaro, our long-time partner in racing simulation. Kindred Concepts wants to bring together racing in a social environment all around the world. Each center will be supplied with state-of-the-art Vesaro simulators equipped with D-BOX haptic system, giving racing fans the best immersive social racing experience. They want to provide the best-in-class experiences, and with the strength of the Formula One brand, they are going to break barriers in competitive socialising. Cutting-edge technology from Vesaro and D-BOX with the excitement of F1 will create an unforgettable, adrenaline-fueled experience,” declared Sébastien Mailhot, President and Chief Executive Officer at D-BOX. “This will give fans a slight idea of what it is like to sit in the cockpit of a vehicle that is capable of traveling at more than 300 km/h.”
“It was obvious for Vesaro to involve D-BOX in this project. Haptic systems are essential when it comes time to recreate the realism of a race, and D-BOX is the best in that field. Our racing simulators will bring to life the experience of driving a Formula 1 car in a stylish and fun environment, giving more people the opportunity to enjoy and get closer to the world of Formula 1,” declared Nevil Slade, Chief Executive Officer at Vesaro. “D-BOX provides experiences like we do. When people sit in our simulator, we have to wow them, and this new concept developed by Kindred Concepts is going to make them experience something special and take their breath away.”
The first center is expected to open at the One New Change center in London at the end of this year, with plans to extend to the USA, Middle East, and Asia in consideration as well.

Spinomenal debuts Queen of the Amazon slot
Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has released its new hit, Queen of the Amazon. Set amongst the lush rainforest, this 5×4 slot welcomes players on an adventure where treasure awaits intrepid explorers.
A majestic Amazon headdress, tiger, gorilla, and snake, make up the Medium symbols on the reels. At the heart of the story stands the queen herself, representing the Wild symbol. Her symbol can substitute for any other symbol on the reels, except for the Free Spins and Bonus symbols. Discovering five Wilds on a winning line will multiply the bet line by 2000.
Synced Reels, where two random reels on the screen mirror each other, are in play to potentially boost players’ chances of winning. Furthermore, with the Expanding Wild feature, wilds appearing on synced reels expand to fill the entire reel, unlocking even greater winning potential.
Players will be able to enter Free Spins when three Scattered Wilds appear. Before commencing the round, players face a choice in the gamble feature: collect the current free spins total or risk it for the opportunity to win as many as 50 free spins. During Free Spins, the entertainment goes on with Stacked Wilds where 1-3 stacked wilds are fixed on random reels for every spin.
The Bonus round will trigger with three or more Scattered Bonus treasure chest symbols. Players are tasked to uncover treasure chests to complete the multiplier metre on the left. Each segment is completed with five treasure chests to grow the multiplier, while a +1 spin symbol extends the feature.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: “Queen of the Amazon is a powerful presence and this new game celebrates the ferocious female warrior. This slot is bursting with fun features and the bonus round promises huge returns for players.”

Playson, the fast-growing digital entertainment supplier, has combined the striking themes of its most successful games in its latest title Energy Joker: Hold and Win.
With coins, electricity and a grinning joker, this fast-paced release has lightning running through its reels. The blue Collect feature strikes the cells and gathers all values, including the Mini, Minor and Major jackpots and Bonus symbols.
The game’s Wild symbol, the joker, substitutes for all symbols on the reels, except Bonus and Collect icons.

This feature sees coin, jackpot and collect symbols enhanced by random multipliers of x2, x3, x4, x5 or x10 within a cell.
If a Multiplier symbol lands in a cell that already has a multiplier, the previous amount will increase by the corresponding one. They remain on the reels and apply to respective cells when the Bonus Game ends.
Four in-play jackpots appear during the Bonus Game and trigger the corresponding amounts. On Bonus symbols, the Mini equals x25, Minor x50 and Major x150, while all 15 Bonus symbols landing on the reels triggers a Grand jackpot of x5,000 bets.
Another iconic feature of Playson’s titles is the Pile of Gold. Any Bonus or Collect symbols landing on the reels during the main game grant the chance to trigger it, then add Bonus, Collect or Multiplier symbols in quantity enough or more to activate the Bonus Game.
This unforgettable release demonstrates Playson’s deep awareness of its players’ tastes and combines its most successful games into one epic title.
Tamas Kusztos, CCO at Playson, said: “We have a well-established reputation for delivering high-energy slots with unrivalled graphics and animations. With Energy Joker: Hold and Win, we take this to a new level.
“The electrifying lightning, abundant coin imagery and iconic Joker offer a new level of gaming experience, while features such as in-play jackpots and Multipliers create the chance to achieve impressive wins.”
