Gambling software developer Million-2-1 gets its slots game added to iPhone's App Store

7 August 2009, Staff Writer

While there are a number of iPhone casino games available for users to play on their iPhone, as yet none have been endorsed by Apple and added to their App Store for quick download.

That is until now. Million 2-1, subsidiary of gambling software specialists Game Technology (IGT) have had their latest slots game, Cleopatra added to the App Store...making it one of the first gambling operators to do so.

But before you rush out and download the game, bear in mind that is only available in free play mode - all it will cost you is the $1.19 download fee. Although some commentators are suggesting that the achievement gives Million 2-1 a leg up on the competition in the race for the first 'real money' gambling game to be added to the app store should Apple change their policy on gambling games if and when the legislative environment in the US changes accordingly.

Cleopatra is a 5 reel, 16 pay-line slot which offers global leader board of free play credit winners. But the game is easily convertible to a real play slot game should Apple give the green light.

No doubt this development will have the folk at Playtech, Spin3, Probability and Hop-On salivating at the possibility of getting their games added to the app store as well, albeit in free play mode.

California based mobile handset application provider Hop-On Inc have made no secret of their ambitions to be font and centre in the iPhone App Store in anticipation of Barney Frank's UIGEA repealing legislation getting up be years end.
