ITALIAN RUMMY DEAL FOR ROYAL MEDIA
8 January 2010
RM Royal Media Ltd. and Microgame S.p.A
partner for Rummy games on the People’s Network in Italy
RM Royal Media Ltd., which claims to be the world’s
largest online Rummy software provider, and Microgame
S.p.A., a major service provider for online public games
in Italy, have signed an agreement to integrate Rummy
games into the People’s Network, the biggest online
player community in Italy managed by Microgame. The
agreement calls for the integration to be completed
within the first quarter 2010.
The companies plan
to launch an advanced online multiplayer Rummy network
that focuses on Italian Rummy variations such as Scala
Quaranta, Burraco and Ramino, alongside other popular
Rummy variations, a RM Royal spokesman said this week.
RM Royal Media provides the application of the
Rummy games with structure, game play and features very
similar to most leading Poker applications.
All
players registered on the websites of the more than 60
gaming operators served by Microgame will be able to
play their favourite Rummy games in Sit and Go tables
and Multi table tournaments for fun or money. The large
People’s Network player base (more than 1.4 million
registered users) virtually guarantees an engaging game
experience and big jackpots.
Fabrizio D’Aloia,
President and CEO of Microgame S.p.A. said; “With the RM
Royal Media’s advanced Online Rummy System integrated
into our gaming platform and into the People’s Network
[we have] a product approved with huge success on other
markets enlarging the catalogue of our People’s Network
Skill games.... [that are] very interesting for Italian
players.
"We are certain that the popular Rummy
games will yield great results in Italy thanks to the
long and international experience of RM Royal Media and
the market know-how of Microgame and the People’s
Network gaming operators.”
“Italians [have]
proved to be enthusiastic players of Rummy," said Udy
Yosha, chairman of RM Royal Media. "We are delighted to
join forces with Microgame, an industry leader in the
Italian market, and offer Italian rummy fans our ever
growing online Rummy Community. The collaboration with
Microgame will allow us to tap into the regulated
Italian market and a large customer base that is eager
to play these games online.”
Microgame S.p.A.,
founded in 1996, is an independent Gaming Service
Provider authorised by the Italian Autonomous State
Monopolies Administration (AAMS). In 2008 Microgame
generated a gaming turnover of more than Euro 490
million. In November 2009 the international private

Microgame (see previous InfoPowa report) and currently
holds 41 percent of the share capital of the company.
