In order to compensate for a decreasing Classic Casino Population, Operators will at minimum need to engage 12.3% of the SWig Population to offset the projected decline in Classic Casino Population revenues.

The Answer is right in front of us: Hybrid Games

HYBRID GAMES

SkillChance

• Hybrid Games provide elements of Chance and Skill

• By providing a chance component, a sizeable portion of player return can be at parity, leaving an element of skill to tip the balance on player benefit

• Provides a more inclusive product incorporating player achievemento Chance provides an element of excitemento One not need be a “Ninja Master” to have real opportunity to win

• A significant chance component provides for precisely understood economics for banked games

Hybrid Games – RTP method

for Hybrid Games• Chance RTP would be controlled by a traditional RNG + Par Sheet + Paytables

approach• RTP for a pure skill game aspect of the hybrid game must be known within a

range• RTP for a blended skill/chance aspect of the hybrid game can be precisely known• Given the RTP of two domains are known, the hold range or a precise hold on a

banked skill game can be determined (popular with Operators)
