Privately held Games Global is based in the Isle of Man in the UK, backed by venture capital and employs nearly 1,000 people.
Today, the company has partnered with Hasbro for Dungeons and Dragons.
PitchBook describes the Manx company as;
Games Global Ltd is a company that primarily works on developing, holding, and exploiting gaming-related intellectual property, as well as creating casino-style gaming content and business-to-business solutions for iGaming operators in regulated markets around the world, based on the size of its studio network.
It’s the online fruit machines, those Vegas experience, why D&D fans will have to verify themselves as 18 or 21 and up to access some of the sites. Online gambling rules are especially strict in the USA, and Neon Valley, the gaming studio picked for the D&D partnership, specialises in outside-the-US deals.
Neon Valley describes itself;
Representing the new modern, free flowing dynamic world that is contemporary Las Vegas, we are an independent global game studio creating innovative and fresh online gaming content that gives online players in non-US markets a modern Vegas experience.
The first game, due early next year, Tales of Riches, is described as ‘inspired by the legendary fantasy world of Dungeons & Dragons’. Fans will know there’s no D&D world, but many. We might infer a high fantasy setting similar to but legally distinct from Tolkien.
However, Games Global is in the frame for not playing fair with intellectual property. Playtech is suing for IP infringement after spying claims.
