Spribe reaches “milestone moment” with UK licence
Highly innovative game developer gets the green light to launch its suite of Turbo, Poker and skill games to operators and players in the UK for the first time
Spribe, the progressive and innovative casino game developer, has been granted a licence by the Great Britain Gambling Commission allowing it to launch its suite of Turbo, Poker and skill-based games with UK operators for the very first time.
Spribe launched in 2018 and has quickly become one of the most in-demand developers thanks to its hugely popular Turbo Games category, which combines elements of social media with simple but engaging gameplay, for a truly fun and entertaining player experience
The developer’s Turbo Games, which include titles such as Aviator, Mines and Dice, are mobile optimised and have been designed to appeal to a younger audience than traditional slots and table games, and in particular Millennials.
In addition to its Turbo Games, Spribe also offers operators a portfolio of skill games and table games including Poker, Backgammon, Bura, Seka and Domino. All games are designed and developed out of Spribe’s state of the art studios in Kyiv, Ukraine.
Spribe’s games have been developed using cryptographic technology called “provably fair” which means it is impossible for any third-party to interfere in the game process, taking security and trust to the next level. Games are hosted on AWS and Microsoft Azure.
Securing its UK licence forms part of ambitious expansion plans that will see the pioneering game developer enter key regulated markets over the coming months.
David Natroshvili, Managing Partner at Spribe, said: “Securing a UK licence is a milestone moment for Spribe, allowing us to deploy our thrilling, entertaining and unique content to operators in the market for the first time.
“Our games offer something different and have been designed to appeal to the lucrative Millennial player. They have proved to be a big hit in other markets, and we believe they will be just as popular with players in the UK.
“Content is now one of the most powerful ways operators can stand out from their rivals and our Turbo Games in particular allow them to do this while also engaging new player audiences that were not previously interacting with their brand.”
