“That dual value is really the point of the deal,” he explains. “Owning a leading local operator gives us direct, ground-level insight into regulatory developments, player behaviour and payment infrastructure across several African markets, insight that is very difficult to build from the outside.
“Over time we expect that knowledge and local presence to help us open conversations with other operators looking to enter or expand in Africa, in the same way our historical B2C experience in Europe underpinned our platform proposition there.
“So this is not an either/or. It is a B2C acquisition that we expect to strengthen our B2B pipeline on the continent.”

The “3” prefix is not incidental. Spinomenal’s catalog already includes titles such as 3 Chinese Charms and 3 Volcano Power, alongside 3 Fortune Mummies. That points to a deliberate naming convention, one that groups slots into a recognizable line.
This numbered structure works as a soft branding device. It signals to players that a title belongs to a familiar mechanical or presentational family, which can shorten the time it takes a returning player to feel oriented in a new game.
The approach also suits Spinomenal’s release rhythm. The provider ships titles at a steady clip across multiple themes at once, and a repeatable template makes that schedule far more sustainable over time. A useful shortcut, in other words.

“For a hundred years this game lived on the corner,” he said in TCS/JOHNHUXLEY’s press release. “Now it’s got a dealer, a pay table and a seat at the table in a real casino. Same dice, new floor.”
Cee-lo—derived from sì wǔ liù (Chinese for “four-five-six”)—is played with three six-sided dice. Popular among Chinese-American players as early as 1893, it was adopted by hip-hop culture in the late 1970s and became a fixture on the street corners of Harlem, Brooklyn, and the Bronx.
Nas, the Notorious B.I.G., and Jadakiss all referenced the game in their music. Kool G Rap called his 1995 album 4,5,6, and its title track included the line “Headcrack, time to get the bread”—the lyric that most likely inspired 50 Cent’s casino adaptation.
But it was Thomas DeCarlo Callaway who gave the game its biggest mainstream exposure, and gesture of love, when he took his stage name, CeeLo Green, directly from it.
