New Social Casino Games Go Live!
As of recent, social gaming industry has become enriched by two new social casino-style games - Bingo Rider and StackJack. Both titles have been launched into both social and mobile gaming arena.

Bingo Rider, a 90-ball multiplayer social bingo game is the first game for mobiles launched by Spanish social casino gaming company Akamon Entertainment. It is now available in the Apple Appstore for iOS mobile devices and tablets, but there are plans to release it on the Android platform in the coming months.

Bingo Rider is played in real-time, and it offers players multiple levels, social elements such as collectible cards, gifting capability and a chat option on the iPad version.

About the company's future plans, Vicenç Martí, chief executive officer of Akamon Entertainment, said: "The launch of Bingo Rider and five other mobile games throughout 2013 is the first step to turn Akamon into a mobile-first company, and will allow Akamon to consolidate its position as a main player in social gaming throughout the company's natural markets -Latin America and Southern Europe."

As for the other new title - StackJack 1.0, it has been developed by an already popular start-up Lost Island Entertainment, and it is at present available for iOS in the Apple AppStore.

Basically, this is "Blackjack Reborn for Adrenaline Junkies", as the company described it, and it's a single-player game where as cards are dealt, the player places them in one of five columns, building their blackjack hand up to the maximum of twenty one. Once the round finishes, bonus points are awarded and if the hand totals are high enough, the player makes it to the next round.

StackJack also has a multi-player mode, where players can compete head to head with their friends using the same exact deck of cards.

The company co-founder Christopher Cundey spoke about the start-up and said: “I decided to start simple. A basic, fun, easy to learn game that can be picked up at any time but which takes practice in which to develop skills. Anyone who's a fan of card games, casino games, or solitaire will love it. StackJack is just the beginning. We already have our next few games in the works at this time, and each one is really strong, and even more ambitious than the previous.”
