Casino kiosks offer users choice of 60 games

October 5, 2003

DODOMA, Tanzania -- Baraka Casino is the first of a new generation of land-based kiosk networks aimed at the growing remote game-terminal and electronic slot-machine market. Playtech, licensed online casino systems vendor, developed the network. Playtech also launched an identical online version of the casino.

Baraka Casino offers players a choice of over 60 games, accessed through a richly themed casino "lobby," and available at game terminals situated in locations throughout the Republic of Tanzania, on the east coast of Africa, according to a news release.

Playtech's kiosk system offers a range of payment methods, including pre-paid cards and scratch cards. The vendor offers a variety of game terminal styles and interface peripherals, the release said.

Variables can be adjusted at different levels of the network -- from individual terminal settings such as game speed and sound effects to agent- and network-level variables such as session length and bet and deposit limits. These are all configurable by the network operator through a single management console, according to Playtech.
