Project pens licensing deal with NetEnt

UK-based independent games creator Project has entered a licensing partnership with NetEnt.

The first game to be licensed will be NetEnt’s ‘Gonzo’s Quest’ platinum video slot, which is based on the adventures of 16th century Spanish conquistador Gonzalo Pizzaro.

The title is the first to feature NetEnt’s Avalanche feature, which replaces the traditional reel spin and provides players with extended game play.

Tony Boulton, managing director of Project, said: “Whilst the movement of players is most commonly seen as being from bricks and mortar gaming to online, we want to approach this licensing agreement as an opportunity to attract and engage with NetEnt's loyal community of desktop and mobile players but in a bricks and mortar environment.”

“We recognise the imperative of keeping our product offering relevant to a generation of players which is both agile and mobile and NetEnt, which has a catalogue of top performing and recognisable content, is an ideal partner.”
