Beginning today and continuing until March 7 th , 2022, players will be encouraged to play for free and lend an environmental hand to reach a goal of planting 100,000 trees in the Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forests in Idaho, USA .

Players of the game will gather seeds which will go towards planting the trees and delivering positive environmental impact.

The Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forests are home to the Western white pine trees, also known as the "king of pines", a species that has been harshly impacted by disease. To help combat this, HOF Impact will help plant species that are resilient to insects, disease, and fire. The newly planted trees will help to revive the forests' ecological and biological systems and support nature and the natural habitats of many animals including timber wolves, raccoons, moose, black bears, coyotes, cougars, and more.

HOF Impact™ is collaborating on this project with Dots Eco – an organisation which specialises in connecting games to environmental causes.

The initiative was chosen based on a poll of House of Fun® players, with the global player community expressing a real passion for impactful environmental and conservation initiatives. Players participating in the game will receive personal certificates thanking them for taking part in this impactful environmental cause and distinctive tree planting initiative.

Tal Friedman , General Manager at House of Fun®, comments:

"While striving to bring Fun and joy to the world is the core essence of House of Fun®, we are very committed to providing our players with opportunities to support impactful and environmental initiatives.   We initiated a survey among our players and they   voted for the game to support reforestation efforts. We actioned their wishes by collaborating with Dots Eco to plant 100,000 trees to help the environmental and natural ecosystem. We are confident our players will share our vision and while still having fun, get on board with us for this current campaign as well as future initiatives of HOF Impact™.

Nadav Gross , CEO & Co-Founder of Dots Eco, comments:

"   At Dots Eco we are dedicated to turning any digital interaction into a significant environmental impact.    We are thrilled   to see House of Fun® take on board such an important cause and turn it into a campaign that aligns with the fun of their game and the passion of their player community. In working with the HOF Impact™ team, we cannot wait to see the trees firmly planted in the grounds of Nez Perce-Clearwater National Forests!"

House of Fun® is available to download for free on the App Store and Google Play .

GameStop (NYSE:GME) continues to cool following a trading frenzy that drove shares up by 75 percent between the close of trading last Friday (May 31) and the start of trading on Monday (June 3).

The brief rally, which took GameStop shares to US$40.09 on Monday morning, was sparked by a Reddit (NYSE:RDDT) post made late Sunday (June 2) by an account tied to the video game retailer's most prominent supporter, Keith Gill.

Gill, who ignited the meme stock craze in 2021 and is known as Roaring Kitty on other platforms, posted a screenshot on Reddit's Superstonk subreddit that shows a purported US$175 million position in GameStop shares and call options.

Top Trends Shaping the Canadian iGaming Market

From emerging technologies to evolving regulations, the trajectory of iGaming has changed substantially in recent years as the market has experienced significant growth.

In 2022, Ontario's provincial government introduced game-changing legislation that established a regulatory framework for iGaming. Due to this legislation, regulated iGaming successfully displaced the unregulated market, according to Attorney General Doug Downey, creating over 1.6 million active player accounts across more than 70 operator websites as of April 2023 — just over one year following the change.

Ontario's regulation has also laid the groundwork for widespread change in the iGaming space across Canada. As iGaming continues to evolve, it's important to have a deeper understanding of both new and existing trends that will shape the industry's future, as well as regulations.
