Zynga has purchased Spooky Cool Labs and the 40-person talent pool that comes with the acquisition.

Spooky Cool Labs consists of the following tech geniuses, a la TechCrunch.com:

Based in Chicago, the Spooky Cool Labs team is made up of social and real money gaming veterans from companies such as Aristocrat, and slot machine makers like IGT (International Game Technology) and WMS Gaming. The company’s founder, Joe Kaminkow, was ranked as one of the 10 most influential people in the history of slots by Strictly Slots Magazine.

Spooky Cool Labs is not all about real money gaming.  They will also be offering a “Wizard of Oz” city-building non-casino game.

Zynga is looking to launch real money online gambling in the United States via a Nevada license by year’s end.
