Wicked Witch

What is Wicked Witch?

That familiarity is the point. BGaming explained that the game has been inspired by the success of other games featuring the Duel mechanic. In other words, the studio is iterating on a framework it already trusts and attaching its most recognizable characters to it.

The commercial profile stays within conventional bounds. The game serves up a maximum win of ×5,000, with a 97% RTP and medium-high volatility. A layered Buy Bonus menu sits on top of the base engine, offering variations of the Free Spins round rather than a separate headline mechanic.

The most distinctive product choice is presentational. Chicken and Johnny Cash are brought to life with voiced exchanges between the two characters, a detail BGaming describes as an industry-first for the studio and one aimed squarely at retention rather than math.

“Of course, the room to grow is going along with the increasing penetration of mobile. And of course, demographically wise, a quite important area, a generation that is looking into online entertainment always wants more and more.”

The next stage for Peru may therefore depend not only on how operators compete for existing bettors, but on how they engage a new generation of digital consumers. “It’s our responsibility, of course, to educate those newcomers into the online gaming world to always play responsibly, with their head on their neck,” Rossi concludes.
