Sega has added to its range of ‘Vid-Demption’ titles with Pirates of Monster Island.
By adding a video display to a ticket redemption game, the company said it has been able to create much greater game content and more compelling gameplay experiences.
“A typical mechanical ticket redemption game delivers the same gameplay experience every time,” said Sega’s sales manager, Tom Keil. “Sega’s Vid-Demption games have much greater depth, delivering a unique gameplay experience with every play. Our Vid-Demption games contain stories that create curiosity in players – they want to see what’s next. It’s proven to be a sure-fire formula for attracting repeat play.
“For a Vid-Demption game to really work, it needs a sympathetic character that players get emotionally attached to. All our Vid-Demption games have introduced players to a cute character they connect with and want to see succeed. The characters in Pirates of Monster Island have that captivating quality.
“It creates the desire for the player to win for themselves and for the monsters they’re trying to help.”
