Flows Releases Sphere Wheel, a 3D Wheel Game

Flows has launched Sphere Wheel through FlowsWave, its player engagement layer. This free-to-play mini game reworks the popular wheel mechanic with a three-dimensional look. The company says this allows operators to offer a much wider range of rewards.

Sphere Wheel can be deployed at different points depending on player activity. Operators can use the game in reward programs, tasks, sign-up bonuses, player retention campaigns and other gamification initiatives. Being able to set rewards and win probabilities separately also allows higher-value wins to be highlighted with more striking visual effects.

Through FlowsWave, brand, campaign, currency and visual style can be customized for each operator. Flows manages the technology, security and final outcome. Because the platform works alongside existing systems, operators do not need to rebuild their infrastructure from scratch.

Sphere Wheel is the second mini game officially published under FlowsWave. The company's first product was TakeDown, a free-to-play crash-style game. Flows product manager Nicola Testasecca noted that wheels are already a mechanic players recognize, and said the 3D format works well on mobile devices while maintaining high visual quality. The company plans to announce further new interactive experiences in the coming period.
