Tom O'Halleran, Product Director of GameAccount Network commented:

"Incredible Technologies have a unique approach to slot design with games that have visually rich experiences and interactive bonus features that can then be leveraged online, particularly onto mobile Internet gaming devices like smartphones and tablets. When brought to life online, the richer audio visual experience engages with a wider mass-market online player demographic, as we have seen with games like 'Crazy Money' and 'King of Bling' being favourites of players from the age of 24 all the way up to 101."

Dan Schrementi, VP, Gaming Sales & Marketing at Incredible Technologies commented:

"GameAccount has been a successful partner for IT. We design games that are exciting and different with robust mathematical features and GameAccount has proven the ability to deliver a matching experience online. As GameAccount's online casino markets continue to overlap with our ever-growing land based footprint, the reach is driving new player demand across markets. We're excited to be bringing Medusa: The Quest of Perseus online with GameAccount – it's a proven land based title with a unique experience for the online demographic. We look forward to more successful launches soon."
