CGG Entertainment Banned from Offering Games in Sweden
The Swedish Gambling Authority (Spelinspektionen) has issued an immediate prohibition against CGG Entertainment Ltd for offering games in Sweden without the required license. The decision follows an investigation into the website cases.gg, where games were found to target Swedish consumers.
Investigation into Cases.gg
Spelinspektionen launched a supervisory case after concerns arose that the website cases.gg was providing games aimed at the Swedish market without authorization. The platform hosts lotteries in which prizes consist of consumer goods, including cars, shoes and jewelry. It also features several game types such as purchasable “mystery boxes” containing random items. If the outcome is unfavorable, the player loses their stake.
During the review, the regulator observed Swedish-language content when the site was accessed from a Swedish IP address, as well as the presence of the Swedish flag. Additionally, the website has been promoted on a Swedish-language review page. A covert test purchase was attempted by Spelinspektionen, though the transaction was not completed. The investigation also confirmed that Swedish users were not prevented from registering and opening an account.

Company Response
CGG Entertainment Ltd commented on the regulator’s observations, stating that it intends to comply with Swedish legislation and has blocked all Swedish users and payment card transactions from Sweden. However, a follow-up inspection on October 6, 2025, revealed that the site still contained Swedish text along with Swedish-language instructions on how the blocking could be bypassed using a VPN.
