Those who are familiar with the animated, Danish troll, Hugo, will be pleased to know that Play’n GO and Hugo Games will be teaming up to deliver an exciting new slot game, based on the character. It is scheduled for release sometime in the third quarter of the year.
Hugo’s character comes from the TV show of the same name, which aired for the first time on Danish television in 1990. Due to its major popularity and large fan base, the show went on to air in over 40 other countries, as well as serve as the theme for multimedia across the globe.
Now, players can look forward to the famous character being featured in an online slot game, something that’s not yet been done. Owned by Denmark’s, Hugo Games, this collaboration with Swedish gaming supplier, Play’n GO, will serve as the company’s first real-money adaptation. It is slated to feature 5 reels, 10 paylines, and a number of characteristics inspired by the show.
RoyalCasino.dk has been given distribution rights in Denmark, and Play’n GO has been given the role of supplying the forthcoming slot via direct operators to markets on a more global scale. It will be released in both HTML5 and Flash.
Also in development is an animated feature film, based on the character.
According to Martin Zettergren, chief operating officer for Play’n GO, “We are extremely excited to work on Hugo – a character that many around the world grew up with and remember fondly. We can’t wait to bring Hugo and friends to the world of premium slots, and I’m certain that the agreement with Hugo Games A/S and RoyalCasino.dk will bear fruit for all parties.”

I was pleased that there is now a Hugo slot. Who doesn't know him from his childhood, the game is fun, offers cool features and extra wilds. You won't get bored, keep it up.

Why didn't someone come up with this idea before? Hugo is certainly one of the almost forgotten cartoon characters from the 90s. My slot machine with Hugo as the main character is certainly very entertaining and has great potential to become a good video slot machine, but there are still a lot of other cult figures from the 90s that make it into the casinos with their own slot games for example a HE Man slot machine would be really interesting or Ninja Turtles slot.

I'll be honest, I've only really heard of Hugo in passing a handful of times over the past few years, I guess he will be more familiar with our Danish friends here at LCB, but I love Play n Go games and so will be checking out this new slot all the same.

I'll be honest, I've only really heard of Hugo in passing a handful of times over the past few years, I guess he will be more familiar with our Danish friends here at LCB, but I love Play n Go games and so will be checking out this new slot all the same. The quality of their slots has improved dramatically since they first appeared on the scene and I now rank them up there with the big boys like Microgaing, Netent and so forth. Bring it on PnG!
