LAS VEGAS, Aug. 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Earlier last month, slot manufacturer Gaming Arts launched a very unique new slot game, Brian Christopher's Pop'N Pays More!™.

Upcoming installations are also slated for Morongo in California, Coushatta in Louisiana, Grand Casino Hinckley in Minnesota and Saratoga Black Hawk in Colorado.

In the coming months, Gaming Arts will continue installing the new Brian Christopher game along with adding the other new Pop'N Pays More! games, Piñatas Olé and Big Top, across the rest of the country. To date, the response to Brian Christopher's Pop'N Pays More!™ has been outstanding with performance numbers in many cases, consistently running more than 4X house average.
For many of these locations, Brian has made appearances with live streaming videos, hosting group pulls and free slot pulls, along with the unique opportunity for fans to meet with Brian and take photos. The reception by Brian's fans has been astonishing with wait times up to several hours and with lines over 300 people long, all done happily by his legion of followers!
The Brian Christopher game with 1,047-ways-to-win, has a feature that very often expands reels 2-5 up to eight symbols high. At full expansion, there are 16,384 ways to win on every spin. In addition, there is a rapid free game feature offering up to 15 free games with frequent re-triggers. For added entertainment, throughout game play, Brian Christopher's avatar pops up as cash-on-reels symbols, uttering his most popular catch phrases including: "Oh Nelly!" after a big win, "Line it UP!" in anticipation of a winning spin and other favorites including "Do it to it!", "It's all about timing!" and "Rude" where a symbol lands just short of a combination!
The collaboration between Brian Christopher and Gaming Arts is a natural fit as Gaming Arts is a supremely inventive slot company with an understanding and appreciation for how the rapidly evolving social media will influence gaming in the years to come. Gaming Arts has proven itself as a top industry innovator with a long list of successful slots, including the extremely popular Kung Fu Empress™ and the world's most advanced electronic table games (ETGs), Casino Wizard™, as well as the soon to be released Casino Wizard VIP™.
Brian Christopher's more than 5 million monthly viewers on social media have received this first-of-its-kind partnership with open arms. Brian and the Gaming Arts design team delivered a game loaded with features appealing to both superfans and general slot players alike. This winning formula has earned rave reviews and generated unprecedented interest among players. They are not only coming out to the casino properties that have installed the game to date, but they are also asking their local casinos to add it to their gaming floors!
Jean Venneman, Chief Operating Officer of Gaming Arts commented, "We're really excited to be working with Brian," Venneman continued, "He's been an amazing partner to collaborate with, and we're confident that his fans and players alike will really enjoy this exciting new game."
Brian Christopher added, "We're a perfect match. We are both super innovative and forward thinking. As my fans already loved the original Pop'N Pays games with their constant action, fun bonuses, free games and catchy music, Gaming Arts was the obvious choice to partner with."
In true YouTuber fashion, Brian Christopher’s slot machine was played for the first time with one hand on the button and another holding a phone, livestreaming it all to thousands of viewers.
The social media influencer unveiled Pop’N Pays More, a slot machine featuring his likeness and created by Las Vegas-based manufacturer Gaming Arts, at the Plaza on Wednesday night.
Stars like Madonna and characters like Homer Simpson have been the subject of slot machine licensing deals for years. But a licensing deal with an internet celebrity, and one already familiar with slots and gaming, is something new.
“As a slot manufacturer, we keep our ear to the ground and see what’s going on out there,” CEO Mike Dreitzer said. “We were very impressed by the remarkable popularity of Brian and his legion of fans, and he’s a triumph.”
The YouTube personality already reaches about 1.1 million followers over multiple social media platforms — and has made an impression on Las Vegas. Three of the new machines sit in the Brian Christopher Slots section of the Plaza as he and the casino have partnered on projects for years.
The area, the first smoke-free area in downtown Las Vegas, will be renovated to be “social media friendly” later this year by welcoming cameras, giving more control over music volume and adding interactive elements designed to make people want to take photos.
“I think it’s important to adapt with the time and social media, YouTubers are very important features in today’s society,” Plaza CEO Jonathan Jossel said. “Nobody isn’t taking pictures of everything that they see, so why deny that? Obviously, you have to follow game protection, you have to respect people’s privacy. But as long as you’re doing it within your own space, we want to encourage it and embrace it. That’s what we do.”
Christopher said he was proud of the game and his fans’ support. He said Wednesday’s livestream was his channel’s biggest audience of the year, with 19,000 live viewers. It gained hundreds of thousands more in less than a day.
“My fans absolutely love the constant action of the game with the numerous features and use of my catchphrases,” he said Thursday.
On Wednesday, fans and gawkers gathered around Christopher, his husband and his parents each playing on the machines during the livestream.
California resident Juli Mangun said she and her husband came to town to watch the unveiling. They met him previously through meet-and-greets and group pull events.
“He uses that catchphrase, ‘Rude,’ but he’s not rude,” she said. “It’s like being with this little family. You watch every day or so, you get to know the others and other fans.”
Pop’N Pays More will operate in several casinos, including M Resort and Palms locally and tribal casinos in Arizona, Oklahoma and Minnesota.
“This market is very competitive,” Dreitzer said. “We’re obviously looking for ways to bring interesting value to buyers. They want good content and it’s always getting better and better. We thought that this was a great way, given where social media is.”
