The Six TAS Platforms, Explained
TAS is the software group behind a family of sweepstakes platforms that most operators still know by their previous names. Over the last release cycle every title in the family was renamed and rebuilt: VBlink became Dragon Fury, Ultra Panda became Ultra Thunder, EGame became Estar, Glamour Spin became Royal Vault, Golden Treasure became Royal Treasure, and AceBook became Crown Codex.
This site is a plain reference to what each of those six platforms actually is — what changed in the rename, which titles run on it, what the operator backend does, and which kind of storefront each one suits. Each platform has its own page below.
Every TAS Platform, One Page Each
Six platforms, all renamed from something operators already knew. Each page covers what changed, what runs on it, and who it suits.
Dragon Fury
Previously VBlink · 27 released titles
The oldest lineage in the family and the most recognised name of the six. Reels and fishing in roughly equal measure.
About Dragon Fury
Ultra Thunder
Previously Ultra Panda · 27 released titles
The rename operators ask about most. Built around link and wheel mechanics where bonus rounds chain rather than resolve.
About Ultra Thunder
Estar
Previously EGame · 32 released titles
The broadest shelf of the six — reels, fishing and bingo together. The usual pick for a floor serving mixed audiences.
About Estar
Royal Vault
Previously Glamour Spin · 36 released titles
The largest catalogue in the family, and the most titles that appear nowhere else in it.
About Royal Vault
Royal Treasure
Previously Golden Treasure · 30 released titles
Deep on fishing tables and skill arcade. Suits floors with seated players and longer sessions.
About Royal Treasure
Crown Codex
Previously AceBook · 4 released titles
The newest of the six and the smallest catalogue. Early ground for operators who want in before it fills up.

What TAS Platforms Covers
Six platform profiles
One page per platform with its former name, the full released title list with artwork, backend notes and the operator profile it fits.
The rename reference
A single table mapping every old name to its current one, so a search for the name you remember lands somewhere useful.
How credits reach a store
The distribution chain in plain terms — who issues credits, who resells them, and where a storefront sits in it.
How TAS Credit Distribution Actually Works
Most confusion about these platforms comes from the supply chain rather than the software. Four links, in order:
The platform
TAS builds and hosts the software and issues the credit supply for it.
The distributor
A distributor holds a wholesale account and resells credits downstream. Elite Entertainment Games operates at this level across all six platforms.
The storefront or agent
A shop, arcade or online agent buys credits from a distributor and loads them into player accounts.
The player
Players hold accounts created by the storefront. They never buy from the platform or a distributor directly.
The Operator Backend and API
All six platforms share a family resemblance in the operator backend: account creation, credit issue and recall, sub-account tiers, session history and per-title reporting. If you have run one of them you will find the others familiar within an afternoon.
Step-by-step walkthroughs of the backend live on our resource library at sweepsguides.com, which covers account setup, loading and recalling credits, and reading the reports.
Automation is available as well. Operators running several storefronts, or syncing balances with their own ordering system, can request API access rather than loading by hand.
Backend tutorials at sweepsguides.comChoosing Between Them
Operators usually run more than one platform, because players follow titles rather than brands. If you are starting with one:
- Largest catalogueRoyal Vault — 36 released titles, the widest spread of themes.
- Strongest fish and arcade mixRoyal Treasure — Deep fishing and skill-arcade shelf alongside the reel titles.
- Best-known nameDragon Fury — Carries the VBlink player base, which is the largest of the six by history.
- Newest buildCrown Codex — The most recent of the six; a smaller catalogue today, adding titles each cycle.
