Light & Wonder Content Goes Live on The Mill Adventure’s AI-Powered Gaming Platform
Platform and white label solutions provider The Mill Adventure (TMA) strengthens its fast-growing content offering with Light & Wonder. Their market-leading games, joining more than 3,000 casino games from other leading content providers, are now accessible to all operators and white label brands powered by TMA. Light & Wonder has one of the broadest and most integrated game portfolios trusted by gaming operators globally. The company, formerly known as Scientific Games, has recently rebranded to reflect its transformation into a games-focused business that offers players a seamless experience across platforms. TMA’s SmartLobbies feature will showcase player-favorite titles from Light & Wonder’s studios and aggregation services. SmartLobbies uses artificial intelligence (AI) to automate casino management tasks and to curate personalized content for each player — the same way popular streaming platforms personalize content.
Enrique Boedo, New Business Manager at Light & Wonder, comments on the partnership, “We’re committed to creating high-quality gaming experiences across the globe; The Mill Adventure providing their partners and players access to our games through their portfolio is an important step towards this goal. We’re excited for their players to finally experience the unmatched digital entertainment that millions around the world have come to know and love.”
Bjørnar Heggernes, Head of Gaming at The Mill Adventure, responds, “Everyone knows the quality and service Light & Wonder delivers. Not only do they have a huge selection of top games in-house, but they also have one of the best selection of 3rd party game providers. What’s more, their focus on delivering engaging content, efficient operations, and innovative technology aligns with everything that we do at The Mill Adventure.”
The successful integration of Light & Wonder content follows TMA’s recent upgrade on their SmartLobbies feature. Through a data partnership with SlotCatalog, TMA optimized the metadata in their internal game catalog; leading to increased relevance and higher accuracy in their machine learning-powered recommendation engine. Now, online casinos can create unique, themed lobbies and tournaments by using relevant game tags and, at the same time, deliver more meaningful game recommendations to their players through SmartLobbies.

Real-money casual puzzle tournament startup says an EU private investor backed the April 2026 round.
EasyWin, a U.S.-based real-money gaming startup, said it has closed its second seed funding round at a $20 million valuation. The company announced the round in April 2026 and said it was backed by a private investor from the European Union.
The company previously closed its first seed round in December 2025 at a $15.5 million valuation. That round included funding from Velo Partners, Vladimir Nikolsky and several private angel investors.
EasyWin was founded by Ivan Leshkevich, a former executive at mobile game publisher and developer Mamboo Entertainment. The startup, which currently has a team of eight, says it has built a global tournament platform for casual puzzle games with cash prizes and operates across major markets.
Since launching in 2025, EasyWin reported 25% month-over-month growth in user spending and a 4.9 average user rating. It also said it has expanded into 12 countries with localized legal opinions and payment infrastructure, received PayPal approval for its MCC, and completed payments-stack integrations with global providers.
The company also said it has obtained GLI certification “confirming compliance with U.S. regulations for skill-based gaming products.” Leshkevich said: “In the long term, we aim to become a leading global skill-based gaming platform. To achieve this, we focus on a strong product USP and new AI-based dev tools.”

Downtown Las Vegas property says the July Super Bingo will be its largest prize purse to date, with sessions on July 4-5.
Plaza Hotel & Casino will stage a $250,000 “Super Bingo” event in Las Vegas July 3-5, positioning it as a special edition tied to the nation’s 250th anniversary. The operator said the prize pool is the largest in the series’ history.
“The Plaza will be celebrating its 55th anniversary and the 250th anniversary of our great country in July, so it is only fitting that we make our Super Bingo event that month our biggest and best ever,” said Jonathan Jossel, CEO of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “Our Super Bingo events have always drawn a packed crowd to our convention space, and we anticipate the July event to sell out quickly.”
According to the Plaza, Super Bingo draws nearly 1,000 attendees, including visitors traveling from Hawaii and Canada. For the July edition, bingo-only registration is set at $250 per person for gameplay on Saturday, July 4 and Sunday, July 5. The Plaza is also offering an optional five-night hotel package priced at $200 per person, with no resort fee, for check-in July 2 and check-out July 6.
The Plaza outlined the payout structure as 20 games paying $1,999 each day, plus a daily “super coverall” of $60,000, second place of $15,000, and third place of $10,020. The casino said prizes will be paid in cash and players must be present to win.
Outside of the special event, the Plaza said its bingo room runs six daily sessions at 11 a.m., 1 p.m., 3 p.m., 5 p.m., 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. and is located two floors above the main casino.
