Our compatriots from Zeptolab prepared to fight back against King in order to repel the patent claims of this company for the word “candy” in Europe.
At the beginning of the year, the “Candy King” decided to stake out the rights to the words “candy” and “saga” (which caused a wave of hatred among developers). In the United States, the company eventually abandoned its plans, choosing a different path, and in Europe, the “candy” remained for King.
Now everything can change with the submission of the creators of the cute Om Nome. First of all, Zeptolab intends to protect its slogan “Feed with candy”, which is part of the Cut the Rope brand. Along the way, he defended the freedom of using this word for his colleagues. The company hopes that success in Europe will help to avoid a “candy monopoly” in other territories.
