“We love being part of IGA because it reaches the heart and soul of the industry. This year we decided to showcase several of our classics – many of which have been updated in new and exciting ways. We strive to bring the best new games to the casino floor, like our award-winning Go Go Claw, and there’s nothing better than an update on a casino legacy like craps. Shoot to Win Craps has been on casino floors for decades — and we are making it better for each and every generation of player.” – Yugo Kinoshita, Global CEO, Aruze Gaming Group
Aruze has created innovative products that do not sacrifice the spirit of the casino, such as its captivating suite of Activ-Play™ slots and exceptional ETGs. While Aruze continues to improve its suite of offerings, the company will be reintroducing several of its modern classics, updated to improve the experience of tribal gamers, such as the popular Shoot to Win Craps™.
Shoot to Win Craps™ Lucky Roll, a player-initiated craps game commonly known as “bubble craps,” is now a more engaging experience for all players. A “help” menu initiates those interested in but intimidated by craps – allowing gamblers of all levels to feel welcomed into tribal casinos. A live camera feed and light-up shooter button help players see the outcomes and launch their bets into a bubble of larger-than-life dice. These extra elements work in tandem to make every bounce of the dice memorable for everyone gathered around the table.
Tribal operators can now tailor the gameplay to house preferences with custom settings including odds, commission, simultaneous bets, jackpot features and “don’t bet” areas.
A new function for configuring minimum and maximum bets now comes standard on this upgrade – making floor customization easier than ever. The lights, sounds and graphics are customizable, fitting it to the theming of any home casino.
To make it even more enticing for tribal casino players, Shoot to Win Craps™ Lucky Roll received several visual upgrades – calling people in to see the giant dice bounce around for a chance at an even bigger jackpot. A new overhead display wrapped in bright LED lights creates spectacular optics, a modern upgrade that harkens back to the classic casinos many patrons may be nostalgic for. By continuing to improve these legacy games, tribal operators do not sacrifice their existing demographic while appealing to a more modern one. Aruze provides solutions that cater to everyone, from the casino connoisseur to the nervous novice.

“Light & Wonder is incredibly excited to showcase our products and services to our tribal customers at IGA.

Light & Wonder has shown immense drive through maintaining its title as the leading cross-platform games company, and that same drive has culminated in the exceptional upcoming Cosmic cabinet. Cosmic is truly a sight to behold on all levels, and its first-in-the-industry lighting package makes certain that it will be seen.
Cosmic’s claim to fame is the control over 247 diffused-fiber-optic cylinders that run along the sides of the intensely curved 4k 49-inch and 27-inch panels, as well as down to the attached base all of the way to the floor. Capable of intense precision, every game on Cosmic will have a tailor-made lighting system that coordinates with its features, bonuses, and base game mechanics in a way that hasn’t been seen before. Likewise, unseen on a property floor is the immense care that has gone into capturing this level of majesty in such a narrow form factor, coming in at a mere 28 inches wide and 31 inches deep.
Naturally, it is a necessity for a cabinet like Cosmic to be exciting experientially as well as visually. Thanks to Light & Wonder’s creators, Cosmic will play host to swathes of aesthetically stunning and wildly enchanting gaming experiences for players of all kinds. Frankenstein, Ultimate Fire Link® Cash Falls®, Dancing Drums® – Power Trio, Zodiac Lantern, and Gold Fish Feeding Time™ Deluxe are just a handful of the future offerings on this magnificent piece of hardware.
