Rainbow Riches: Pots of Gold
Mobile version of the 5-reel, multi-line slot game released.
Manchester, England, 4 June 2009 – Million-2-1, the UK's leading provider of interactive mobile phone services and an IGT-UK Group subsidiary announces the release of the legendary Rainbow Riches® Pots of Gold™ to its mobile platform. Rainbow Riches® joins other leading Barcrest Group game titles that have been ported for mobile, including Ooh Aah Dracula R.I.Peater, Elvis Top 20 and Hi-5.
Rainbow Riches® Pots of Gold™ is a 5-reel, multi-line slot game with three exciting bonus rounds. The ‘Pots of Gold’™ bonus features three progressive jackpots (Bronze, Silver and Gold) which increases every time the reels are spun. Additional bonuses include a ‘Pick Me’ feature and the legendary ‘Road to Riches’ bonus trail.
As with all Barcrest Group games on the Million-2-1 platform Rainbow Riches® Pots of Gold™ will be available with a number of stakes and players will have the opportunity of competing in a unique tournament mode, battling to get to the top of the leader board to win prizes.
Rainbow Riches® is the UK’s best known land-based slot title and has significant presence through bingo halls, motorway service areas, AGC’s and betting shops. Million-2-1 is confident that fans of the land-based version will not be disappointed.
Chris Sheffield, Director and General Manager of Remote Gaming at IGT-UK Group said, “The launch of Barcrest Group’s most popular land-based slot game onto the mobile platform signifies a massive step forward in our mobile strategy. The mobile version uses exactly the same maths and game logic as that in the land-based game making the players experience second to none.”
Million-2-1 will continue to expand its range of top quality mobile content, with Rainbow Riches® being joined by Cleopatra® and a suite of table games in the coming months.

About Million-2-1
Million-2-1 was founded in 2003, and immediately made an impact on the market with the introduction of the first reverse auction – now an international phenomenon. The company followed this success by creating some of the most innovative and interactive competitions, lotteries and SMS games for the mobile phone market. Million-2-1 offers partners the ability to access millions of mobile phone users and leverage additional revenues from interactive gaming solutions.
In 2008, IGT-UK Group acquired Million-2-1, cementing the strategic relationship developed between the two companies and marking IGT’s entry into the mobile gaming market. This gave the company access to some of the best known game titles in the industry to be offered through its mobile platform.
