888 and CryptoLogic have signed a three-year licensing deal that will see 888 integrate casino games from  the egaming software firm that best complement its product range.

The agreement follows a number of third party games 888 has made available on its platform and games such as Cubis and Millionaire’s Club will be the first to be integrated as part of the deal with CryptoLogic.

Justin Thouin, senior vice president at Cryptologic, told eGaming Review: “This is putting our money where our mouth is. We are flexible and we will provide a tailored solution.”

Thouin added that his firm would still focus on providing turnkey solutions but was happy to be flexible for operators such as 888.

“In an ideal world we would provide exclusive deals, but we think that this kind of partnership provides a win-win partnership for us and for companies like 888.”

888 chief executive Gigi Levy added:"This reaffirms 888's strategy of creating a game ecosystem, powered by an industry-leading integration infrastructure, which enables 888 to introduce a diversified offering to existing and new players, worldwide."

Thouin added that the games would be relased in the third quarter of 2008 and three to four new agreements were currently in the pipeline.
