SPRIBE secures approval in Romania and Italy
Developer powerhouse has Mines, Hi-Lo and Goal titles certified by Gaming Associates for launch in fast-growing regulated markets
SPRIBE, the award-winning developer of next-gen online casino content, has significantly increased the distribution of its games in core European markets after receiving certification from the renowned testing house, Gaming Associates.
The certification allows SPRIBE to launch its Mines, Hi-Lo and Goal titles in Romania and Italy. The approval to go live in Romania is also recognised by the Malta Gaming Authority, which means SPRIBE can roll-out these titles in all Malta jurisdictions as well.
SPRIBE is the developer behind the world’s number one crash game, Aviator, but it also has a portfolio of Turbo Games packed full of engaging and entertaining titles that have proved to be a big hit with players.
Mines takes the popular minesweeper format with players having to reveal as many stars as possible without hitting a mine. The more stars they collect, the bigger the win. Players can cash out after each successful play if they wish.
Hi-Lo is a quick wagering game where the player has to guess if the next card will be higher or lower than the current card. But SPRIBE has added an extra layer of fun – the player must then choose the next three cards and if they get that right, their win gets boosted, and the game carries on. Again, they can cash out after any win.
Goal sees the player go from one end of the field to the other and score a goal. They do this by clearing lines but in each line, there is a bomb – if they land on the bomb, it’s game over but if they can clear the field and score a goal, they win the biggest prize.
All of SPRIBE’s games are super light so play incredibly well on mobile and also offer a chat function where players can interact. This combination has seen them hit the market with the lucrative but hard-to-reach Millennial and Generation Z demographics.
Giorgi Tsutskiridze, CCO at SPRIBE, said: “SPRIBE is known for Aviator, but we also have a portfolio of Turbo Games that are just as fun to play. Having secured approval from Gaming Associates, we can now launch these titles with our operator partners in Romania and Italy, as well as all Malta markets.
“This will allow our partners to stand out from their rivals through next-generation content that appeals to an important but hard to engage audience. Ultimately, our games offer superior levels of entertainment, and we can’t wait to see players in Romania and Italy experience, Mines, Hi-Lo and Goal for the first time.”
