AGS recently partnered with Yaamava’ Resort & Casino in San Manuel, California, for a two-day world premiere event of its newest slot family, Ultra Werewolf.
Yaamava’ Resort & Casino hosted filmmaker, actor, director, writer, podcaster and comic book aficionado Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes as their well-known characters Jay and Silent Bob from the ’90s cult-classic movies Clerks, Mallrats, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Smith and Mewes were the first customers to play the game March 4 and then spoke about their experience in a live recording of their SMPodcast, Jay & Silent Bob Do Yaamava’.
“Yaamava’ Resort & Casino is the perfect venue to celebrate the dedication and partnership that goes into a world premiere of a slot game,” AGS Senior Vice President and General Manager, Slots, Mark DeDeaux said in a statement. “The Ultra Werewolf brand extension builds on the thrilling story line of the original Werewolf, one of AGS’ most successful premium games. The new franchise takes it even further with its unique comic book theme, more bonus features and all-around excitement. Our relationship with the team at Yaamava’ and a shared focus on delivering innovative, unforgettable player experiences, made this the ultimate way to ‘Catch the Wolf.’”
The celebration continued March 5 as representatives of Yaamava’ Resort & Casino and AGS were part of an unveiling celebration followed by a slot pull for Club Serrano Members.
At the event, guests were immersed in the comic book-come-to-life scene, including a living, breathing Werewolf, two werewolf hunters from the game, interactive photo-ops, and custom werewolf slot chair covers. The VIP reception for Club Serrano members leveled up the fun with thematic mocktails, wolf ear headbands, and free spins on Ultra Werewolf Fury and Ultra Werewolf Strike.
Four lucky winners who entered to play one of the Ultra Werewolf games were automatically entered into a drawing for $1,000 in free play. One winner walked away with $5,000 in free play.
“Ultra Werewolf represents the kind of creative, high‑impact game design that elevates the entire industry,” said Yaamava’ Resort & Casino General Manager Kenji Hall. “Yaamava’ is dedicated to leading the market in entertainment innovation, and we’re pleased to be the launch location for AGS’ latest breakthrough.”
Ultra Werewolf slot drawings will continue March 22 with four Club Serrano players winning $1,000 in free play, and one winner walking away with $5,000 in free play and a limited-edition, real silver Justice League comic collector card.
Ultra Werewolf will be available exclusively at Yaamava’ Resort & Casino for a limited time before being released at additional casinos nationwide.
