Arévalo by MGA Games Joins Celebrity Slots with a Comedic Spin

After supplying the market with Golden Lucky Cat at the beginning of June 2020, the Spanish-based MGA Games brings out its latest and final month release, a comedy slot inspired by Francisco Rodriguez Iglesias, artistically known as Arevalo.

This legendary comedian, actor and comic bullfighter will be joining the provider’s series of jokers such as Chiquito de la Calzada and Senor Barragan, earlier releases created in their own image. The studio’s most recent slot is already available with Spanish operators since June 15th, and it’s on a trajectory to becoming a top-selling release starring a celebrity.

Un, Dos, Tres... Responda otra Vez

Imagined as an overview of the comedian’s career, the slot revisits some of the most memorable moments in Arevalo’s life, further popularizing the mini-games series which now counts five sequels in total.

The plot revolves around two periods in actor’s life, his early career when he worked as a comedian bullfighter in Latin America and later rise to fame after starring in Un, dos, tres… responda otra vez – a very successful TV game show in Valencia. Apart from the roaring scenes of live shows across Spain, players will also see other references to Arevalo’s acting career, including images of his usual day activities, roles from various movies, pictures of his home and the port city of Valencia where he currently lives.

The Spanish actor is very active on the stage as well, as he appears in many plays and participates in reality shows or television comedy programs. Arevalo was raised in Catarroja, while his first appearances on television date all the way back to 1970. His nickname is actually the middle name of his father who was a bullfighter, which is the reason why Francisco began his career in El Bombero Torero, a comic show founded in 1948 by Pablo Celis Cuevas.

Fun, an Important Role in Production

Due to his relevant experience in showbiz, the comedian has been actively involved in the slot’s production. His career spans over 40 years, making him one of the most beloved and endearing comedians in Spain. By developing the Arévalo slot, MGA Games has conjured a product that perfectly matches the comedian’s own personality and features, incuding his recognizable lines and jokes, voiced by Arévalo himself.

Joan Sanahuja, chief executive officer at MGA said that the end product is a game replete with Arevalo’s fantastic sense of humor, from which the users won’t be able to contain laughter.

“Winston Churchill said it well: a joke is a very serious thing. This is especially so when it helps boost product sales and attract users’ attention. We fully embrace this approach and humour and fun always play an important role in our productions. We develop products that are flawless on a technological level, highly competitive and that also put a smile on players’ faces,” explains Sanahuja.

Just like the rest of the gaming suite of MGA productions, Arevalo comes with full graphic support and optimal usability on mobile devices. It is played in a 3x3 configuration, while its mechanics rely on medium volatility and a moderate bet level ratio ranging between €0.20 and €10 for a single spin. Maximum exposure is set at €10,000.
