LONDON, Dec. 22, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- International
Game Technology PLC ("IGT") (NYSE: IGT) announced that it now
offers content from the legacy GTECH game portfolio on its social
gaming app, DoubleDown Casino®, with
today's launch of Treasures of the Pyramids™ for
mobile and desktop.
"Launching our first legacy GTECH title on DoubleDown
Casino establishes a significant milestone for the new IGT,
showcasing our combined strengths from the two legacy
organizations," said Joe
Sigrist, DoubleDown Interactive Senior Vice President
and General Manager. "Treasures of the
Pyramids is a well-known, top-performing title in land-based
casinos. Leveraging its popularity provides our social
players with more engaging content as we continue IGT's momentum as
the leader in cross-platform content creation and
distribution."
Treasures of the Pyramids features an Egyptian-themed symbol set

recognize from the land-based game. Its five-reel, 40-payline
configuration displays the legacy title's iconic wild panther
symbol spread across two reels, and can give players the chance to
trigger 100 free games in the bonus round with a variety of
multipliers.
