Parlay Entertainment, Inc., a supplier of Internet bingo software,
and NetPlay TV, plc, the interactive TV gaming company, jointly announced an
agreement to further develop Big Box Bingo, one of NetPlay TV’s core properties.
The multi-phase plan involves Parlay developing an online bingo
solution that lets fans of the Big Box Bingo TV show play additional bingo games
and a host of slot games online. Additional phases over the coming months will
include mobile phone integration, television streaming and the integration of
Parlay’s back-end software to power the televised bingo game.
Big Box Bingo launched in July 2007 and became the UK’s first-ever
live interactive TV game show. Airing weekly on Sky Channel 847, the show allows
viewers to play along with an interactive bingo game from home. Players purchase
and print cards at BigBoxBingo.com, or they can choose to receive them through
the post.
As part of the agreement, Parlay will also add additional Web games
to the Live Roulette offering as it migrates to its new domain, www.supercasino.com. For
