KamaGames releases video poker app

Social mobile poker operator KamaGames has announced the release of a new standalone video poker app, Video Poker by Pokerist.

The app, which is now available via the App Store and Google Play will host three game types — Deuces Wild, Bonus Video Poker and Jacks or Better — and is designed with “the look and feel of the traditional Las Vegas video poker machines.”

Established in 2010, KamaGames Europe’s largest social mobile poker operator, with over 630,000 daily active users. The company’s flagship game, Pokerist, was the #1 grossing app in 101 countries on the App Store.

Andrey Kuznetsov, chief executive of KamaGames, said he believed the game would be attractive to both Pokerist players and new customers.

“We are placing a strong focus on differentiating our portfolio of social casino games in many directions this year,” Kuznetsov said. “As an iconic element of the Las Vegas casino, video poker is very familiar to our audience and in-line with the products they want from KamaGames. With this exciting new addition, we hope to both satisfy both our existing players whilst also attracting a fresh, new audience.”

Kuznetsov said the company had focused on diversifying the range of content it offers with the launch of new products, and the video poker roll-out was “perfectly aligned with this goal”.

“In the short time since launch, it’s certainly helped us build on our global presence in the social casino landscape and we’re looking forward to adding to this offering in the remainder of 2019,” he added

Earlier this month, the company announced that H1 2019 revenue increased 11.2% from the previous year to $46.3 million.
