Gaming equipment maker and operator Novomatic AG says it has made the “first ever” installation of its “Sapphire Package” of casino slot machine product. The firm describes it as “an innovative gaming solution that combines premium hardware, captivating game play, and cutting-edge signage technology”.
The installation was at Casino Partouche d’Annemasse in Haute-Savoie, France, near the border with Switzerland.
The deployment features four Diamond X 3.32 cabinets (pictured) – each with two 32-inch screens and a 32-inch topper – along with the “Superia Ames Link 1”, according to a Tuesday press release.
The game mix is said to blend the established games “Cash Connection” and “Golden Link” with new titles, “providing a diverse selection of 25 thrilling games and exciting jackpot opportunities,” stated Novomatic.
The announcement cited Patrick Delbauffe, sales manager at Novomatic France, as saying that the group was “delighted to celebrate the first-ever installation of the Sapphire Package”.
“This achievement highlights our strong partnership with Groupe Partouche and our shared commitment to delivering innovative and high-quality gaming experiences,” he added.
Arnaud Moumdjian, director at Casino Partouche d’Annemasse, said in prepared remarks that the venue was “proud to be the first casino worldwide to present” Novomatic’s new concept.
“Since the moment it was installed, the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive: players are drawn to the vibrant LED signage and thrilled by the game selection,” said Mr Moumdjian.
