A new virtual casino game developed by Vancouver's Las Vegas From Home.com Entertainment Inc. (TSX-V:LVH) appears to be a hit with Facebook Inc. (Nasdaq:FB) fans.
In March, LVFH launched its Real Vegas Casino on Facebook. The company recently hit a major milestone by attracting 100,000 players per month.
Real Vegas Casino takes a social network approach to online gaming. It provides players with a range of social network features, in addition to a range of interactive casino games, which are played with virtual currency.
"In just over two months, despite very minimal marketing expenditures, the company's Real Vegas Casino is now used by more than 100,000 active players monthly," the company said in a news release.
The company said the growth has been fueled largely through the translation of the site into four additional languages – Spanish, traditional Chinese, simplified Chinese and Russian.
"We are pleased with the rapid growth in the number of players and the level of engagement throughout the first two months of operations," said LVFH president and CEO Jake Kalpakian.
"Casino games are one of the fastest growing game genres on Facebook and with our unique product offerings, we see this achievement as just the beginning as we continue to build the most comprehensive and accessible social online gaming platform."
LVFH builds a number of online gambling platforms, including Texas Hold'em poker, Mahjong and blackjack.
