Skill 4 Prizes sign partnership with Finsoft

Skill 4 Prizes, a games content provider with developers totalling over 20 years experience in the 'skill with payout' (SWP) pub kiosk arena, and Finsoft, a sportsbook and gaming platform provider with clients including Bet365, BetFred, Stan James, Paddy Power, Boylesports, Sporting Index and others, have signed up to a partnership for provision of Skill 4 Prizes content as part of Finsoft's FINAL Gaming portfolio.

After three years research and development by Skill 4 Prizes, combining their kiosk skill set with Internet games development, the company has launched a brand new range of Internet based Skill/Fixed Odds Hybrid games termed eSWP's.

Games include a range of picture puzzle titles and an Internet 'Brit Quiz' featuring over 10,000 questions! The games feature a skill element, whereby the 'best' players have a higher chance of winning bigger cash prizes. All games are played against the house for instant cash wins, making them both innovative and unique.

The first in a series of games is planned to be released by mid 2007.

Jim Preedy, the Managing Director of Skill 4 Prizes said: "We have been developing a game format, which falls somewhere between peer to peer skill games and traditional fixed odds soft games for several years. Working closely with many major operators and addressing their concerns, we have developed a game format that is safe, secure, fun and has a rapid game turnover. Our agreement with Finsoft is the beginnings of a great future within the Internet gaming space".

Finsoft Managing Director Predrag Popovic commented: "Skills-based games are crossing over into the fixed odds gaming space. We are delighted to be at the forefront of this transition by partnering with innovative and proven developers such as Skill 4 Prizes.
