System-wide protection of games from clones, cheats, and fakes

Futura Digital finds, records, and eliminates intellectual property infringements that directly impact a product's revenue and reputation. Whether it's store clones, illegal mods, or cheats, we remove current infringements and establish a regular process to prevent them from recurring.

//
A mobile game clone takes 2-4 weeks to build. A cheat for a PvP shooter takes a weekend.

Operational risk in Gamedev

While your marketing is driving traffic, some of this traffic goes to other people's copies, and some goes to the gray markets of currency and accounts.

Market & Client Pain Points

What Threatens Your Product?

Clones & Copycats

Games and apps mimicking popular titles, including fake ports — unofficial mobile versions of PC games made without the rights holder's consent.

Cheats & Modifications

Software that cracks a game's source code, giving unfair advantages, disrupting balance, and killing retention — honest players leave.

Resale of In-Game Currency, Accounts & Items

Players buy through third-party marketplaces like Avito and FunPay. The developer loses revenue and control over the in-game economy.

Mods & Repacks

Modified APKs (cracked game versions) distributed via file-sharing sites, Discord, Telegram, and GitHub. Break game economy and mechanics without developer control.

Phishing Sites

Sites fully copying the design and wording of the original product — used to deceive users, steal data or money. Damage brand trust.

What We Do & Workflow

  • We build protection as a process, not a one-time store cleanup.
  • We monitor channels, gather evidence, classify violations, prepare takedown and DMCA requests, and follow through with platforms — and courts when necessary.
  • In parallel, we close legal gaps: trademarks, ToS/EULA, developer agreements.

How We Work

Monitoring

we scan stores and online platforms, looking for direct matches and subtle cases: similar names, visual borrowing, brand keywords, fake ports.

Step 1

Documentation

links, screenshots, spreadsheets. Notarization when required.

Step 2

Categorization

type of violation, risk level, priority, and strategy (trademark / copyright / patent / ToS / license).

Step 3

Enforcement

complaints and claims filed with stores, GitHub, Discord/Telegram, mod catalogs, hosting providers, and search engines.

Step 4

Litigation

for major violations, we handle full legal disputes: resource blocking and compensation recovery. Litigation projects are scoped separately from the retainer.

Step 5

Working with channels

Additional —
IP Audit

Helps identify weak points early — before they affect your enforcement strategy.

Any enforcement strategy requires properly registered and structured IP. We conduct an internal audit and review:

  • Trademark availability and validity
  • Accuracy of developer agreements (who owns the product's rights)
  • User-facing documents: ToU and EULA
