R & R…but it’s not what you think!

By Matthew King, July 24, 2010 1:13 am

Greetings and Salutations Everyone!

We just got back from an exciting event in Crystal River, Florida and literally have one day to catch up, and then we’re off to Grand Cayman!  We’ve definitely got some work ahead of us, but we’ve also scheduled some extra time for vacation while we’re down there.  You might think this is the R & R from the title of this blog, but it’s not.

The R & R I’m referring to is our all new Risks and Rewards stage game show designed for casinos.  We previously produced this show as Thrill or No Thrill for Harrah’s Casinos.  The response was incredible!  Now, we’ve given the entire show a facelift, adding exciting new technology, new graphics, new software, and even some new game play elements to make the show even more interactive than ever before!

Risks and Rewards will be hitting casinos this fall, debuting in Las Vegas and Wisconsin.  We’ve got an all new set that’s being constructed for this show, and we’ll be posting pictures as elements of the show are completed.  This all new show allows for a high turnover of contestants, with up to 50 people being able to win prizes at every show!  For player development and rewards programs, Risks and Rewards is absolutely perfect and is a definite REWARD for your casino’s bottom line.  Risks and Rewards…We’ll see YOU at the show!

Until next time, keep on playing!

Updates from the road…

By Matthew King, July 19, 2010 12:25 am

Greetings and Salutations Everyone!

We’re on our way to Florida for an event and I’ve got some updates to share with you…

The first update is with our game show murder mystery.  Our original tag-line (from my previous post) mentions nine celebrities.  We’ve already had some questions as to the size of the entire cast, so I wanted to make sure everyone knows what to expect.  For our clients who want our largest production, there really are nine celebrity impersonators, two actors portraying contestants, one actor portraying the game show host, one actress portraying the model, one actor portraying the cop, and a narrator – for a grand cast of 15 people.  Our standard production has two celebrity impersonators, with the rest remaining the same, for a total cast of eight people.  It all depends on your budget.  If you’re looking for something larger than life, our 15 member cast is just the ticket.  If you’ve never done a murder mystery before or are on a tighter budget, our standard production with a cast of eight is absolutely perfect.  We’ll be updating our website with information on both cast sizes.

The second update is about our Tic Tac GO! casino promotion.  The original concept rendering for this game had a game-board with a 3 x 3 grid.  We played this version of the game in-house over 100 times and determined that the promotion needed a little something extra.  So, we changed the game board to a 4 x 4 grid with some fun surprises.  After over 100 test games, we made some final cosmetic modifications and have our new concept rendering posted below.

The 4 x 4 version of Tic Tac GO! is literally ready-to-go.  The original concept had a total of ten video monitors to make-up the game board and scoring screen.  Our 4 x 4 version has everything on a single large projection screen.  The promotion comes complete with screen, projector, back-up projector, animated marquee lighting, and a large slammer button.  Tic Tac GO! will be making its debut in Las Vegas in November and in Wisconsin in early 2011.  For more information about Tac Tac GO! or to schedule a live demonstration of the promotion, call Game Show America today!

The final update is on our GSA Squares Light production.  There are two versions of this production currently available.  The first version utilizes nine 42″ LCD monitors and two sets of risers (4′ and 8′).  This production requires a room with a ceiling height of 12 feet or higher.  The second version utilizes nine 23″ LCD monitors and two sets of risers (2′ and 4′).  This production requires a room with a ceiling height of at least 9 feet or higher.  We’ll be posting some photos with the 23″ monitors in one of our August blogs, as we’ll be showcasing this production in early August for a corporate client in Minnesota.

We also have another new game in our portfolio to share with you.  I’m sure many of you have seen the show “Minute to Win It” on television.  This is a fantastic, hi-tech redo of the classic “Beat the Clock” game show which ran from 1950 to 1961.  It has since been re-vitalized in 1969-1980 in different versions, and again in 2002 and 2006.  While we don’t actually re-create “Minute to Win It”, we have received requests to do a game show with timed physical challenges.  Since Game Show America started in 1996, we’ve been doing physical challenges in many of our game shows.  For the past few years, these challenges have been carefully packed away, waiting for the right time to bring them back.  And that time is now!  We’ve now packaged over a dozen physical challenges into a single production, which, oddly enough, still does not have a name.  We let our clients name the game to fit the theme of their event.  Some of the challenges are timed, while others are a race to finish first.  It’s a wildly interactive production that brings exciting competition to your event.  We’ll be showcasing this production in mid-August for a corporate client in Minnesota.

And with that…I bring this post to a close.  Until next time, keep on playing!
