Driven by the zeal to conceptualize and create something that would entertain and engage millennials at mass level, Vaibhav Gupta, a gaming enthusiast himself, knew if he wanted to build a venture ever, it would only be in the skill-based real money gaming segment. A close observant of the Indian real money gaming market, which is home to more than 278 Mn online gaming users making up approximately 46% of the total 604 Mn internet subscribers in India, Vaibhav realized that most existing games were just remakes of successful and established real money concept or multiple offerings and the real issues of a serious gamers needed tuning. High quality, never before gaming models and concepts, hack-proof entertainment, transparent gaming experience that inculcates real competitive spirit is what Indian youngsters and millennials would like to bet on. A trigger that forced Vaibhav, currently the CEO & Co-Founder, to leave his well-cushioned job at Octro Inc. in 2017, country’s leading developers of mobile gaming platforms and more so his seventeen years of professional career behind, to kick-start Rein Games in 2018.
