The Czech provider Endorphina issued an official request to withdraw its Maori slot from the game portfolio. Endorphina representatives commented their decision as follows:
«We wanted and also could change the Maori slot and raise the players’ awareness of this outstanding culture and its people. Unfortunately, the game was not accepted by everyone. A group of New Zealanders and the authorities of some tribes were concerned about the fact that their culture and symbols were so prominently depicted in the international online game without prior notice. Hapai Te Haora, Māori public health agency, demanded the withdrawal of the slot from the game portfolio, as well as our official apologies».
