The Provider Landscape
The provider list published in an independent review runs to more than eighty names. It mixes large established studios with smaller, newer developers. Some recognisable names include:
- Established slot studios: NetEnt, Play'n GO, Red Tiger, Yggdrasil, Novomatic, Thunderkick, Big Time Gaming.
- High-volatility specialists: Nolimit City, Hacksaw Gaming, Relax Gaming, plus smaller independents such as Backseat Gaming and Bullshark Games.
- Crypto-oriented and mid-size studios: BGaming, Playson, Booongo, Evoplay, Endorphina, Spinomenal, Mascot, Platipus.
- Live dealer suppliers: Evolution, Ezugi, Lucky Streak, Absolute Live Gaming and others.
- Crash and instant games: Spribe, Turbo Games, Aviatrix, Galaxsys, Smartsoft Gaming.
Such a broad mix means the lobby covers most popular styles, but it also means the overall quality varies from studio to studio. Large studios usually publish independently tested return-to-player (RTP) figures; it is worth opening a game's info panel to see the RTP the casino has configured, since many slots are released in several RTP versions.
