Freeverse Software announced today that Burning Monkey Casino, its electronic gambling simulator, is now shipping to retail stores.
Burning Monkey Casino features five high-stakes games of chance and skill. Players select from up to eight animal avatars, and gamble with imaginary dollars or bananas* in five addictive games:
Blackjack - Play with one to eight decks, and try to tie or beat the dealer in this traditional casino game.
Poker - Eighteen variations of this five-card video game provide hours of enjoyment.
Slots - Pass the time with 3-slot, 4-slot, and 5-slot games, with up to two holds. Big payouts are just a pull away!
Scratch n' Win - Players can savor the experience of scratching lottery tickets, without all of the gummy residue to clean up. Pick from two instant win games, and use six different scratchers... including a Taco!
3-card Monty - The classic street game of finding the Queen is brought to life in vivid color. Keep your eye on the queen!
And what Casino game would be complete without a Lounge Act and a bad Borscht-Belt comedian? Burning Monkey Casino will take your wife... Please!
Finally, as an easter egg, a basic pachinko simulator is also included. To activate it, type "pachinko", and watch the hypnotic action of the ball take your money away.
Featuring an OpenGL engine created by Mark Andersson for spectacular particle effects, monkeys by Steven Tzé, and authentic lounge music by Andrew Tokuda and Kevin Serfass, Burning Monkey Casino is the swingin'est casino game ever made, exclusively for Mac OS X!
Burning Monkey Casino has a suggested retail price of US $19.95. The game will be available at Apple resellers, and at the Freeverse Store.

*Imaginary banana wagers available only in Video Poker and Slots. All other wagers are in imaginary U.S. dollars only. You may imagine that the dollars are from Canada or Hong Kong, but an imaginary agent of a state gaming commission and some imaginary guys that go by the names of "Solly" and "Fatso" will make sure you imagine otherwise.
