Grover Gaming acquires Digital Dynamics Software

26 August 2021

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Grover Gaming, Inc. announced today that it has acquired the assets of Lake Zurich, IL-based Digital Dynamics Software, Inc, a pioneer in gaming software, with products including SAS Engine, SAS Gateway, Backdrop casino management software, and the GAP gaming protocol. The acquisition allows Grover Gaming to enhance its player experience and easily connect SAS-based electronic gaming systems and casino communications to its proprietary software.

The acquisition also represents the expansion of Grover Gaming into Illinois with this new Chicago office. "This investment will play a crucial role in our company's future growth," said Garrett Blackwelder, President of Grover Gaming. "Tony Antonucci and his team have an incredible reputation in this industry. With their proven casino products and our games, we are excited about the new opportunities this will open for Grover Gaming," added Blackwelder.

Digital Dynamics Software was founded in 1994 by Tony Antonucci and is considered an industry leader in SAS Engine software, backdrop host systems, and SAS gateways. Their GLI-certified system easily connects any SAS-based gaming devices and is designed to interoperate with system vendors worldwide.

"We are very excited to join the Grover team and take our combined products to a new level and into new markets," said Tony Antonucci.

The new SAS engine will support Grover Gaming's advanced accounting and metering, multi-game/multi-denominations, real-time events, progressives, and bonus features. Once integrated, the Backdrop host system will enable Grover Gaming to offer customers floor-wide accounting and ticketing, real-time floor display, enhanced reporting, and player tracking and rewards.
