Vegas Partner Lounge Offers Mahjong Mania Software With 28Mahjong

The fast growing following of the Asian-inspired game is about to receive the Vegas Partner Lounge group’s newly licensed Mahjong Mania software on 28Mahjong.com. As it is, Mahjong already attracts an estimated one billion players worldwide and is expected to become one of the fastest growing market segments over the next five years.

Online gambling companies are increasingly turning their attention to the huge potential of the Asia Pacific region, so the announcement comes at a most opportune time.

With Microgaming’s virtuoso software version, developed in partnership with Dynasty Gaming subsidiary Mahjong Mania, the full thrill and complexity of the game is brought to a new on-screen level of tension and sophistication with big and plentiful winnings at stake.

Mahjong is now the oldest of all gambling games to be updated by the rapidly expanding online gambling industry. Amazingly, the 136 to 152 tile game that claims to have been developed by Confucius, the great Chinese philosopher, in about 500 BC, still manages to offer today’s players all the tension and excitement of other internet games.

Microgaming will continue to offer operators an unrivalled games rollout schedule of four new games per month in addition to Mahjong Mania.

The CEO of Microgaming, Roger Raatgever, said: “Microgaming has an unparalleled ability to explore new boundaries for our operators in global online gaming. We are confident that it will provide the estimated 1 billion Mahjong players worldwide with the first aggregate online version of the most widely played game in the world.”

“Localization is vital if one is to secure long-term success in new markets. The secret to that is cutting edge software that offers a dependable, rich gaming experience for experienced and novice payers alike. This is just the beginning.”

The Mahjong Mania President, Adriaan Brink, added: “Our agreement with Microgaming enables us to efficiently and credibly create relationships with a large number of well established and successful casino operators. Vegas Partners and 28Mahjong are the first.”

“We recognize the importance of moving quickly in this market and we believe our link with Microgaming is critical in achieving early and broad market penetration.”
