In case you are planning any analysis on today’s decision by the ASA to uphold a complaint about the People’s Postcode Lottery’s advertising (https: //www .asa .org. uk/rulings/postcode-lottery-ltd-a23-1204271-postcode-lottery-ltd. html), please find some comments from leading gambling law firm Poppleston Allen on the ruling below:

“This is the first time we’ve seen an ASA ruling related to lotteries for some time and it acts as a reminder that like other gambling companies, lotteries must always ensure their marketing is responsible and does not suggest their product is a solution to financial concerns,” a solicitor at Poppleston Allen, Felix Faulkner, said.

“In this case, the People’s Postcode Lottery argued because the advertising in question referred to a win having allowed the winners to pay for a wedding, which it believed to be discretionary, it could not be interpreted as suggesting it would provide a solution to the couple in question’s financial concerns.

“However, the ASA’s decision to uphold the complaint highlights the fact that the fine details are all-important. In this case, the ad referenced one of the winners having been made redundant and having had to put the wedding on hold after paying a deposit. It also used emotive language, which the ASA considered could be taken to mean they were stressed about their financial situation.

“Further, it referenced the fact the ad made clear the couple had continued to play the People’s Postcode Lottery after one half of the winning couple had been made redundant, which contributed to its decision.

“Lotteries are well-known for wanting to tell a story with their advertising about winners. However, marketing professionals need to make sure that the entirety of that story is compliant with the Committee of Advertising Practice (CAP) Code and that no part of it implies playing their lottery can be a solution to financial concerns.”

SuperGaming, India’s leading game development studio, has officially announced the launch date of its highly anticipated Made-in-India-for-the-world battle royale, Indus. Set to release on October 16th, Indus will be available for download on both Android and iOS platforms, via the Google Play Store and iOS App Store respectively offering players an exciting new battle royale experience.

After recently entering open beta, mass testing amongst players across the world coupled with their invaluable feedback has been instrumental in shaping the game’s development. The immensely successful beta phase attracted players into the action-packed world of Indus, building significant momentum ahead of its release. With over 12.5 million pre-registrations on Android alone, Indus is ready to deliver a fresh, thrilling & immersive battle royale experience, setting the stage for one of the biggest game launches out of India this year.

Speaking on the announcement of the much-anticipated launch, Roby John, Co-founder and CEO of SuperGaming, said, “With the launch of Indus, we’re not just introducing a game—we’re presenting a unique take on the battle royale genre to the world. Our vision with Indus has always been to showcase Indian Art and Culture through unique characters, weapons and stories rooted in Indian heritage while also bringing our dual win condition with Cosmium and a never done before “Grudge” feature to a popular game genre. The overwhelming support from our community during the beta phase has helped us fine-tune key aspects of Indus, and we’re excited for the world to experience Indus and see what the SuperGaming team has built”

Alongside the release date announcement, SuperGaming has also unveiled an epic cinematic trailer. It offers an exciting look where players engage in high-stakes combat across a vast and dynamic battleground.

Centered around Adi, the trailer highlights his journey within the world of Virlok. As the leader of his squad, Adi enters Virlok with two goals: to collect the rare resource Cosmium and to settle a personal score with his nemesis, Pokhran. Viewers can witness Adi’s evolution—starting from a novice, training and sharpening his skills, and culminating in an epic showdown where he finally takes down Pokhran, settling his grudge.

Indus brings a fresh twist to the battle royale genre with its dual victory condition. Players can win by either being the last person standing or by strategically collecting Cosmium which spawn in the last circle of Nirvana, adding a new layer of complexity and depth to traditional gameplay.

The trailer also offers a sneak peek into the dynamics of Cosmium collection and Grudge, a unique in-game feature that allows players to settle scores with their opponents. Additionally, the Grudge system allows players to track down and face off against the opponents who defeated them.
