Midnight Romance

What is Midnight Romance?

Patent squabbles, including those pertaining to geolocation services, aren’t unheard of in the online gaming space. How things shake out in the Cantor Fitzgerald/DraftKings spat remains to be seen, but it’s possible the deck is stacked against the gaming company.

The Commerce Department has jurisdiction over the USPTO, meaning Lutnick is the boss of the USPTO Director John Squires. Squires, who became 60th director of the USPTO a year ago, has been publicly effusive in his praise of Lutnick.

More relevant to DraftKings is the fact that under his leadership, the patent office has moved to significantly limit access to the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (PTAB) – the very board to which the gaming company is appealing in an effort to have the Cantor patent annulled.

Thunder Walker is best read as evidence of REEVO’s content strategy rather than as a landmark launch. The studio is producing recognizable, theme-led slots and pushing them through its own distribution platform to its operator network. The game is now live through the REEVO platform, making it available to the company’s operator partners and their players.

Greek mythology remains one of the most durable and repeatedly mined themes in slot development. Zeus, Olympus and storm imagery give studios instant visual shorthand and reliable player recognition, which is precisely why developers keep returning to it. REEVO going back to that well signals a preference for proven commercial territory over riskier concepts, at least in this part of its roadmap.

This is a mainstream release designed to fit widely rather than to stand out

“Standing still was not the responsible choice,” Nally said when the market launched. “Albertans were already gambling. What we’re putting in place is a regulated market that will put player safety and player responsibility first.”

“At the end of the day, this is not about revenue. This is about channelization,” Nally added. “How much of that black market can we channelize into the legal, regulated market?”

According to Nally, approximately 70% of online gambling in Alberta occurred through unregulated operators prior to the July 13 launch, with the remaining 30% flowing through Play Alberta, the province’s sole legal platform at the time.
