Cryptologic

Founded in 1995, Cryptologic is a Toronto-based software development company that specializes in providing gaming software in download client versions as well as an instant play Java version. Unlike Microgaming which only concentrates on developing and licensing software, Cryptologic launched its first casino on the Internet - InterCasino - in 1996 and later went on to open two more online casinos called “The Sands of the Caribbean” and “Omni.” Again Cryptologic was the first gaming software company to integrate and incorporate multi-player games in their collection of casino games.
