The Grim Reaper

What is The Grim Reaper?

Last month the UK Gambling Commission agreed a regulatory settlement with Evolution of £4.75 million, after finding its games had been accessible via a handful of unlicensed operators in the UK.

In July the Commission said its investigation had discovered the supplier had failed to maintain adequate anti-money laundering and customer due diligence controls in the UK.

It considered suspending Evolution’s licence, but the supplier acted swiftly, carrying out ring-fencing controls across Europe to prevent its games from being used in grey markets.

The design decision matters more than the garden-war premise. Coins can award an Instant Bonus, open Hold & Spin, or launch one of the wheel-driven Bonus Spins modes. That gives the whole feature set one consistent trigger.

That consolidation is the news hook. Rather than spreading activation across scatters, dedicated bonus symbols, and separate triggers, Play’n GO has made one symbol responsible for every route into a feature.

Everything runs through Coins. The Coin connects the four Instant Bonus tiers, Hold & Spin, and the two wheel-driven Bonus Spins modes, giving a busy feature set a single point of entry.

The problem is that many of these recommendations involve companies that are not authorised to operate in Brazil. Some may be licensed in other countries, but that doesn’t allow them to operate legally in the Brazilian market.

The research also found profiles of influencers known as tipsters, sports traders and “professional gamblers”. They sell access to groups, predictions, spreadsheets and other products related to betting, while presenting gambling as an income-generating activity.

According to The Intercept, some content even uses expressions like “leaving the CLT [Brazilian labour law]” and “your dream income” to promote this type of activity. There are also screenshots of alleged user earnings and posts that present gambling as a kind of investment.
