Huff n’ Puff has probably got among the most attention of any game I can think of in recent years in terms of fervent demand to play it, so this sequel will probably draw a lot of attention. The Lock it Link series has been a popular one on the casino floor, so it’s not surprising that the games are seeing sequels this year.

Others, like WMS, didn’t see their games being updated for new cabinets, and so as casinos removed the old machines from the floors, the games were disappearing. Some of their subbrands, like Shuffle Master, succeeded in keeping their popular brands out there and doing brand extensions (think 88 Fortunes). Scientific Games has been a company that’s been in some ways a bit uneven until recent years.
