Slingo Quest Hawaii released

HACKENSACK, New Jersey -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- The fresh, floral air energizes you. The warm, tranquil waters refresh you. The breathtaking, natural beauty renews you. Aloha, welcome to paradise where you can relax and unwind with the latest creation from the minds behind the award-winning casual game Slingo Quest(TM). Slingo Quest Hawaii(TM) is being produced by the casual games publisher Funkitron, Inc. and the digital interactive entertainment company Slingo, Inc. This Slingtastic new game has something for everyone; whether you're a seasoned Slingo Quest(TM) player or new to the combination of slots and bingo, you're sure to find fun and entertainment with Slingo Quest Hawaii(TM) with over 60 levels to explore in this Hawaiian-themed casual game.

Go island-hopping and discover fun new twists to the classic Slingo game, while collecting as many points and Hawaiian-themed postcards along the way as you can. Travel around Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Maui, Lanai, Kahoolawe, The Big Island and areas specific to Slingo Quest Hawaii(TM) like Sunken Ship, Coral Reef, where you can play a huge 7x7 reef board with lots of Slingo Coins to find, and dark and mysterious Pirate Ship Island.

Expect new twists in Slingo Quest Hawaii(TM) like Slingo Tricks which can be played like magic spells before a spin. Some examples include "Match 3 Numbers," "Match the Pattern" and "Extra Joker." The new Tiki Joker can match an entire row or column and gives you an automatic Slingo! Players can also find the elusive Powershot that matches 4 extra numbers at once.

With two modes of play, Quest and Classic Plus, in addition to new exciting elements like Wild Squares, Cherub's Treasure, which doubles your score, and more, this new version of Slingo Quest really takes the game to a new level. Players of the first Slingo Quest(TM) will recognize some familiar lovable Slingo characters with a few twists to them and a few new ones like the competitive Tiki guy, all set in a gorgeous Hawaiian setting. The classic Slingo female cherub is back to giggle, cry and laugh along with the player during their entire adventure. The joker still helps the player match more numbers on the Slingo board and the cowardly snickering devil is there to take away the player's hard-earned points, darn that devil.

"Slingo Quest Hawaii is sure to be another Slingo hit that players will be able to enjoy for hours, thanks to a great mix of classic Slingo game play with some great new exciting elements like Platinum Coins, Bonus Tiles and my personal favorite, the Volcano," says Eric Lamendola, General Manager for Slingo, Inc.

Dave Walls, President of Funkitron, Inc., adds, "My favorite new feature is the Slingo Tricks. I love to finally get a joker just when I need it."

Slingo Quest Hawaii(TM) has several new game twists, including Volcano Slingo: Play against the Tiki Guy and erupt the hidden Volcano with hot lava action and bonus points. But play wisely, because Tiki Guy knows his Volcano.

Players will also have a chance to test their Slingo skills in a round of Speed Slingo: How fast can you play? Spin once and the reels spin automatically. Can you make matches before they spin again? This is fast and furious Slingo game play for the first time in a Slingo game.

Slingo Quest Hawaii(TM) features all of the best in Slingo action and much, much more...
