Ladbrokes and The Osbournes
X Factor star Sharon Osbourne has been immortalised in an all-new online game, along with husband Ozzy, children Jack and Kelly and her pampered Pomeranian pooch Minnie. The first ever family to appear in an illustrated slot game of this nature, The Osbournes will go live on Ladbrokescasino.com today, in a game as mad as the wild rocker’s family.
Following the recent illness of Sharon’s favorite pet Minnie and her transatlantic dash to see her, Sharon is thrilled with Minnie’s inclusion in the game and the online personas of her family. Sharon says, "The game is fantastic. All the family have been brought to life and they even managed to immortalize my beloved dog, Minnie! I'll certainly have a little flutter when it's launched."
Made famous with their award winning fly-on-the-wall television series, the Osbournes have become one of the most recognizable families in the world. Despite their well-publicized troubles, the family remain close and supportive of each other. Since being launched into the media spotlight, the family as branched out into a range of successful careers. Sharon is currently filming her fourth series as an X Factor Judge, Kelly is appearing in the West End musical Chicago as Mama Morton, Jack hosts his own television show Adrenaline Junkie, whilst Black Sabbeth rock star Ozzy oversees his family and remains the original Prince of Darkness.
The Osbournes is an online slot game packed with free spins, multiplier boosts and impressive cash prizes of up to £150,000. Sharon’s dog Minnie becomes a star in her own right as the game also includes an additional feature where players can be rewarded with free spins. The game features four levels - one each for Ozzy, Sharon, Jack and Kelly - with the goal of reaching Ozzy for the full reward - although each level carries it’s own cash incentive if completed.
Isle of Man – October 26 2007 – Microgaming announces it has launched its eagerly awaited Osbournes video slot. The cutting-edge game, starring Ozzy, Sharon, Jack, Kelly and even Minnie the dog, is the latest high profile offering from the Microgaming stable and follows in the footsteps of another blockbuster release earlier in the year - Hitman.
The game – the product of an exclusive licensing agreement with the Osbourne family, will be available to all 120 casinos powered by Microgaming as of tomorrow and will soon be available in over 19 languages. It is expected to attract massive worldwide interest within the playing community.
The Emmy Award-winning reality series – The Osbournes ran through to March 2005 and propelled the family into the global media limelight. Since then, all members have branched out into other successful careers, with Sharon currently fronting her fourth series of X Factor and Kelly starring in the West End musical, Chicago.
Sharon Osbourne says, “The developers at Microgaming have done a fantastic job at bringing all our family to life within the game and they’ve even managed to immortalise my beloved dog, Minnie! I’ll certainly have a little flutter when it’s launched.”
The Osbournes game is a 5 reel 20 pay-line slot jam packed with free spins, multiplier boosts and solid cash prizes.

In an industry first, the new game features an on-screen trail feature above the slots themselves, where Sharon’s dog, Minnie acts as both trigger and indicator. Get three, four or five Minnie symbols across the reels and ten Free Spins are triggered, together with a trail feature. Minnie will trot across the screen as free spins are achieved, moving across four levels - one each for Ozzy, Sharon, Jack and Kelly - with the goal of reaching Ozzy for the full reward - although each level carries a cash incentive if completed.
Roger Raatgever, CEO, Microgaming, says, “This announcement isn’t just about one of the biggest game launches of the year, but one of the biggest game launches since this industry started - from any software provider. To be launching a video slot featuring one of the most famous families in the world just shows how far into the entertainment industry we’ve come and long may it continue. We set out to create a video slot that blends fantastic graphics and gameplay with striking new features and a touch of celebrity; and we believe we’ve achieved that. From the moment we announced this game was coming, we’ve had players from all over the world contacting our operators for the release date. Well, the wait is over. Enjoy!”

In the base game, players can win up to £75,000 and in Free Spins £150,000, whilst in the new Door Knocker bonus a further £50,000 is available and additional bonuses can bring in another £3,000.
