Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt Live by Evolution Gaming

New game, obviously the first byproduct of Netent aquired by Evo earlier this year. I was expecting it to be Starburst, but makes sense to do it with something else, if they expected high chances of negative outcome.

This is how Evo describe the launch in theier PR article:

“Evolution today announced the launch of Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt™, a ground-breaking online live game show and the world’s first live casino game to bring together live and slots-style gameplay, and the first with the option to play in VR (Virtual Reality) mode.

Inspired by the famous Gonzo character and intellectual property (IP) from NetEnt’s popular Gonzo’s Quest™ online slots title, the all-new Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt™ is the latest addition to Evolution’s live game shows portfolio. Blending the worlds of live and slots and representing “a whole new direction”, the new Gonzo live game show is the first Evolution game to use NetEnt IP following Evolution’s acquisition of NetEnt at the end of last year….”

I was very excited when I heard it coming, and considering two of the best of the breed game stuios… but when I actually played the game I felt a bit disappointed. I think this is a bit of of fail, very little fun experience, quite slow and even despite max 20000X win. Not sure I will play it again.

Evo, you’ve got to do a better job than that…..
