In a legal battle, the software developer BetSoft Gaming sued Sheriff Gaming on the grounds of copyright infringement for developing very similar gaming content to that of BetSoft. Unfortunately for them, the court didn’t find the allegations to be reasonable.
You can’t always get what you want
Similar to the Apple vs. Samsung legal battle (minus Foxconn and those millions of dollars), BetSoft Gaming had accused Sheriff Gaming of IP right infringement, and got many casino operators to stop doing business with the Bubble Group, who own Sheriff Gaming.
Some of BetSoft’s allegations included Sheriff’s usage of similar zooming effects (in tech-speak called Expandicon), in addition to more ambiguous claims like similarities of the style, look and feel of their gaming content.
After much scrutiny and verification, the court ruled in favor of Sheriff Gaming, stating that the accusations couldn’t be validated and there was no evidence to support BetSoft’s claims.
Sheriff Gaming’s CEO Stijn Flapper said that they couldn’t be happier by this latest ruling and we hope that we can now move forward while proving irrevocable proof to our clients and the rest of the industry that we are a true innovator of 3D games.
Despite the court case, players have claimed that both companies’ casino content is equally good and enjoyable, and they can be found simultaneously at Tropezia Palace and Vera&John Casino, and all games can be played with multiple free spins and match bonuses for new and registered players.
