Atari and FlowPlay team up to offer social casino games

Hoping to pump some life into a classic brand, Atari and FlowPlay are teaming up to offer social casino games. Social casino games have become a $2 billion worldwide market, and with so many startups fighting for a piece of the pie, Atari believes its gaming brands will give it an edge.

New York-based Atari has just emerged from bankruptcy proceedings under the ownership of its new chief executive, Fred Chesnais. FlowPlay makes a social casino platform that other companies can customize and use to launch games like slots, poker, or blackjack.
