Alcuin invests in Dovetail Games

The fresh capital will enable the company to invest in the development of its three simulation games, as well as the development of its live gaming platform.

The transaction marks Alcuin's third investment of 2016. In March, the firm invested in insurance company Lorega, while in October it backed aircraft charter business Air Charter Service.

The firm recently sold its stake in doughnut business Krispy Kreme UK to US-based brand owner Krispy Kreme Group.
