The Game LLC and EQL Games Partner to Launch Two Exciting New Games for The UAE Lottery
The Game LLC, operators of The UAE Lottery, the first and only federally licensed lottery in the United Arab Emirates and the Gulf region, regulated by the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA), is proud to announce a multi-year deal with EQL Games. As part of this partnership, EQL Games will provide third-party digital content through its iLottery Marketplace to one of the global lottery industry’s most anticipated iLottery platforms. This collaboration marks the beginning of several new gaming initiatives in the UAE, benefiting from a growing catalog of games provided by the 20+ studios currently under EQL’s management, games developed under the EQL Labs label, and the studios added throughout this contract engagement.
Under this agreement, EQL Games will deliver products from its existing portfolio of games and will also provide any third-party products requested by The Game LLC. This multi-year deal ensures a consistent partnership as the platform grows. In addition to supplying world-class content, EQL Games will work with The Game LLC to identify the best product fit for The UAE Lottery’s growing base of players.
In addition to this exciting partnership, The UAE Lottery also launched two new interactive games, Marble Run and Lucky Lagoon, both developed by Random State, an EQL Games studio partner. These fresh, engaging games are set to bring a new level of excitement to The UAE’s lottery platform, offering players more opportunities to win big.
Marble Run is a fast-paced, interactive game where players select one of five racing balls and choose from six ticket price options: AED 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, or 50. As the marbles race down a dynamic track, they encounter obstacles with multipliers, which can increase or decrease the final prize. Players win by finishing in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place, with rewards up to AED 1,000,000, depending on their final position and multiplier effects.
Lucky Lagoon offers an immersive and rewarding underwater adventure. Players select from six ticket prices (AED 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, or 50) and search for pairs of fish hidden in fish eggs. Players win by uncovering prizes in chests, and the ultimate prize is unlocked by matching all pairs of fish across three areas to reach the sunken pirate ship. With 23 prize tiers, Lucky Lagoon offers prizes up to AED 1,250,000.
Both games introduce engaging experiences with exciting prize opportunities and unique gameplay mechanics. These new additions enhance the overall player experience on The UAE Lottery platform, now available at www.theuaelottery.ae.
“When looking for a provider that could deliver the diversity of lottery content that we were looking for and the ability to deliver on a short timeline, EQL Games was an easy choice,” said Bishop Woosley, Director of Lottery Operations at The Game LLC. “We’re excited to introduce Marble Run and Lucky Lagoon to The UAE Lottery platform. These innovative games bring fresh experiences with dynamic gameplay and great prize opportunities, and we’re confident they’ll resonate with our growing player base. We look forward to a great partnership with EQL Games.”
“We are thrilled to be named the third-party content supplier for the UAE’s new iLottery platform,” said EQL Games Founder & CEO Brad Cummings. “This is one of the most exciting lottery markets in the world, and we are honored to be a part of it, especially at this level. These incredible games by Random State represent the first of many content options our iLottery Marketplace will deliver for this market over time. We look forward to playing an integral role in growing its revenues and player base and making The UAE Lottery a great success story.”
The UAE Lottery prioritizes responsible gaming practices while offering an unprecedented lottery experience in the UAE. Committed to enhancing the entertainment landscape in the UAE, The UAE Lottery focuses on enriching the player experience, implementing robust responsible gaming measures, and delivering socially responsible initiatives.

Getting to Know Incline Gaming Marketing with Chief Commercial Officer Jo Dennis

Incline Gaming Marketing is redefining how gambling brands scale and succeed worldwide. Founded by industry veteran Peter Laverick, the agency delivers end-to-end digital marketing services across user acquisition, CRM, and creative. In this interview, CCO Jo Dennis explains how Incline acts as an extension of operators’ in-house teams, helping them acquire players, boost retention, and compete globally.
Incline Gaming Marketing. Tells us what we need to know about the business.
Incline Gaming Marketing (Incline) is a full-service digital marketing partner dedicated exclusively to the regulated gambling industry. We’re not just a supplier of campaigns or assets, we run marketing operations end-to-end for our partners, functioning as an extension of their in-house team.
Our expertise spans user acquisition, CRM, and creative, delivered by specialists who’ve worked inside top operators and suppliers. With offices in San Francisco, Philadelphia, and London, we provide market-specific strategies and execution for brands in North America, Europe, Africa, Australia, and beyond.
Founded by industry veteran Peter Laverick in 2020, Incline is part of The Conexus Group alongside Pentasia (recruitment) and Partis (strategy and M&A). Our partners range from household-name operators to ambitious new entrants, all looking for a team that can step in, own the process, and deliver measurable results from day one.
Who are the main players running the business day to day?
Peter Laverick, our CEO and founder, has led marketing at some of the industry’s biggest names, including BetVictor, Aristocrat, and PlayStudios. Chief Commercial Officer Jo Dennis joined through our acquisition of Random Colour Animal in 2024 (RCA was originally founded in 2018) and brings more than 25 years in brand and marketing strategy.
Chief Marketing Officer Oren Langburt has over 15 years’ experience in real-money gaming, including leading marketing at FanDuel. VP Partner Success Haig Sakouyan is a 20+ year industry veteran, ensuring our partnerships deliver beyond marketing.
Talk us through Incline Gaming Marketing’s core service offering.
We operate in three connected disciplines that together form a complete managed marketing service:
- User Acquisition (UA): We plan, execute, and optimise campaigns across Meta, Google, TikTok, Snapchat, Apple, and programmatic networks, managing multi-million-dollar budgets. As an approved Facebook Business Partner, we’ve been rated the most effective media buyer in North America’s online gaming sector, achieving a 99.9% efficiency score.
- Customer Relationship Marketing (CRM): Our CRM specialists handle the full player lifecycle — from onboarding and first-time deposit conversion to long-term retention and reactivation. We combine data-led segmentation with targeted offers and creative to grow lifetime value while controlling bonus spend.
- Creative: We produce more than 1,000 assets per month, from brand identities and websites to broadcast-quality TV spots, slot game creatives, supplier content packs, and conference materials. All creative is performance-driven and integrated into UA and CRM campaigns for maximum impact.
When combined, these services allow us to act as a partner’s complete marketing department – – strategy, execution, and optimisation under one roof.
Which markets are you focused on? Are you pushing into any new regions?
We built our reputation in North America, where we work with leading land-based and online operators across casino, sportsbook, lottery, social gaming, and daily fantasy sports. We now deliver integrated managed services in Canada, the UK, continental Europe, Africa, and Australia, tailoring each approach to local regulations, player behaviours, and market dynamics.
For many partners, this means we handle all marketing in new markets from day one – avoiding the time and cost of building a local team – and then continue as their long-term, embedded marketing function.
Why are your services particularly valuable to operators in the current industry climate?
Player acquisition costs are rising, retention is harder than ever, and regulatory pressure is mounting. Building and managing an in-house team with the full range of skills required – from media buying to lifecycle marketing to creative production – is expensive and slow.
Incline solves that. We provide an instant, proven marketing department with deep gambling expertise, multi-channel capabilities, and global reach. Our managed services model means we don’t just advise, we execute, optimise, and deliver results. Whether launching in a new jurisdiction or scaling in a mature one, we know the levers to pull for sustainable growth.
What can we expect from Incline in the second half of the year?
We’re deepening our presence in Europe, Africa, and Canada while cementing our leadership in North America. Several major launches and brand refresh projects are underway, alongside scaled acquisition and retention campaigns for our long-term partners.
Our focus remains the same — provide operators and suppliers with a high-performing, fully managed marketing function that delivers measurable results faster, and with more certainty, than building it in-house.
