will not be satisfied with simply providing
similar games; instead, they are doing their
best to integrate more advanced technology
into the games. They hope that their players
will be able to have a whole new experience
when playing their games.
Take the latest game, PLUMBER, for
example. PLUMBER is a five-reels and
five-lines linkable slot machine, whose
operation interface is not as complicated as
other similar games. This slot machine has
a unique winning model that is composed
of multi-angle "pipes". This model enables
players to understand the winning rules,
items, and the amount of prize money to
be won without spending too much time to
understand the rules. As a result, it's easy
for new players to grasp game concepts
and start playing.
Furthermore, with the
diverse angles that the "pipes" will be in, the
increasingly numerous winning models are
available so that players will be able to have
more fun when playing the game.
Currently, Z Link Technology cooperates
with specific commercial agents for each
product. They have successfully marketed
their products to China, Latin America, North
America, and elsewhere through active,
positive, and flexible marketing strategies.
Mr. Hung stated, "Although Z Link Technology
is not as big as other famous international
companies who have a big team, 'being

industry impressed.
