Pop goes the poker.

By RP, April 30, 2006

Software developer Play First.com has launched a new poker game innovation called Poker Pop, which combines a “tile-turning, round the world escape” with elements of poker.

Kenny Dinkin, vice president and executive producer at PlayFirst described the new product as: “Poker Pop fuses the simple charms of tile matching with the compelling fun of good old-fashioned poker. It teaches the novice, while challenging the expert with all kinds of perils and strategic choices. With its fresh gameplay and around-the-world theme, Poker Pop is an innovative blend of casual gaming and poker playing fun.”

The game features a global journey advancing across the continents, avoiding perils, and sending postcards home, and it is open for a 60 minute free trial online at the Play First site.
