Evolution Gaming's new Lightning Roulette.
Attachment 5544
Not a new game as such, but a new roulette table from Evolution, with the potential to win up to 500x on straight up bets.
Attachment 5545......each round 1 to 5 (lightning) numbers are selected at random to pay 50x-500x (also random).
If you placed a straight up bet on a lightning number and it comes up you win at the increased payout figure.
The new roulette table,
Attachment 5546
...place your bets like normal.
Then its time for the lightning round - the random numbers are selected and increased payouts assigned to them.
Attachment 5547
In this round 3 lightning numbers were generated & if the ball lands on 27 the payout is (the max possible value) 500x for straight up bets. :)
Just a "regular" roulette straight up win here,
Attachment 5549
Regular......except you don't win as much on standard roulette, only 29:1 on the Lightning table.
Attachment 5548... other bet payouts are unchanged.
Ahh ... but since the lightning round numbers are selected AFTER you place your straight up bets, you have to take the low paying straight up to be in the shot to have a lightning number right?Quote:
only 29:1 on the Lightning table
So that's how they hook you into the 29:1 paying bet
Yes, exactly so.
Popping up at a few more casinos now...888, William Hill, Betsson, Genting and Bwin
Finally got around to recording some Lightning Roulette action...

Have to say, I'm not normally one for the flashy, game of chance type games but this one did hook me a bit. If you manage to pick a lightning round number you do watch the spin quite closely.
One thing I thought worth pointing out...
Return to player rate
Is published in the rules (quite cheekily) as being exactly the same as European Roulette (97.30%), however this RTP applies to all bets OTHER THAN the straight up bets, which of course are the bets which distinguish this game from regular roulette.

Bit of an accolade for Lightning Roulette at last month's EGR Operator Awards - named Game of the Year.
Would have thought this is more of a B2B award than an operator award, but congrats anyway. EGR describes the award criteria as follows:

The Game of the Year category will recognise the game studio or operator that has produced the stand-alone game that has made the biggest impact during 2018
Players in New Jersey can now play lightning roulette with the game launching there this week.
Seems the plan is to install a lightning roulette table in all of Evo's US dealer studios, pending OK from each state regulator.
From Jeff Millar, Evolution's Commercial Director in North America...
Quote:
“We are delighted to launch Lightning Roulette in New Jersey and to be able to offer the game to our operators and their players in the state. Following Lightning Roulette’s phenomenal commercial success and immense popularity across our network, we are sure operators and players alike in New Jersey will love the game.
Lightning Roulette is a homegrown Evolution brand and has truly revolutionised Roulette. The technology behind the game is incredibly advanced, as is the studio setting itself. Subject to the necessary regulatory approvals in other states, our aim is to install a Lightning Roulette table in each US state where there is an Evolution live casino studio. It’s our belief that the game, quite literally, has the potential to take the US online gaming market by storm.”
