Slot with Vitousse: one-day event or potential?
This is the second part of our interview with TRUE LABS, who recently released a slot with Vituss (and before that with Lord Treputin). Today we discuss the risk that such a slot will not take off, and why game providers do not create slots with casino streamers.
⚡️ Is there a chance that an Influencer slot will become a «one-day slot»? Or is that out of the question, given that the protagonist of the slot is a well-known character and the player will already be emotionally attached to the slot?
- One-dayers are more likely to be so-called fillers - quick copies released between major releases.
- A slot with a recognizable character is different. It has its own identity and purpose. When a player enters a game and sees a «living face», there is always a story behind it, and that automatically gives engagement. Games with character don't live one day.
⚡️ What is your interest in creating slots with Influencers?
- TRUE LABS doesn't just release games - we build a TRUE WORLD, a connected universe where each game becomes part of a shared mythology. When a hero comes into this world with his audience and energy, he enriches the ecosystem, adds storylines and new emotions.
- We want the player to feel not only the RTP, but also the rhythm, the story and the emotion. So that every game is a small world, not just a function of winning. This is how not just releases are born, but stories that the player can live in.
⚡️ Why hasn't every other game provider made a slot with a streamer or other casino-streamer yet? Why isn't it a trend yet?
- Because with most providers, it's organizationally difficult.
- Large players are not interested - they have everything stable, the flow of releases goes according to plan. Large studios are too clumsy to make such decisions.
- Young studios can't afford to experiment: every release is important to them. Plus small studios don't have the experience, expertise and technology to do it quickly within the timeline a partner expects to see.
- But independent companies like TRUE LABS remain flexible. We have our own RGS (Remote Gaming Server) & GDK (Game Development Kit), which allows us to quickly test new formats without breaking the structure. This is our advantage - technological maturity at startup speed.
