The online casino software provider we are reviewing here is one of the oldest names in the industry. Play’n GO is known for creating high-quality casino games. Their story began way before online casinos were a thing which means they had a lot of experience before the creation of their first online casino game. Their portfolio holds around 300 games, most of which are online slots. It’s not a large portfolio compared to certain competitors but all their games are top-notch. The idea is to create games with popular and interesting themes while also offering excellent graphics. One more thing we have to mention about Play’n GO is that their games are available in 30 different languages. On top of that, all games are available on mobile devices and tablets as well. In this article, we are going to discuss everything connected to this software developer.

History

Play’n GO is among the most popular software developers in the gambling world. Their operation began in Sweden back in 1997 when online casinos were still a thing for the future. As a matter of fact the whole casino gaming industry was still in its infancy phase back then. This developer is one of the reasons why the industry developed so quickly. The company behind this developer is registered in Vaxjo, Sweden. It holds a license from the UK Gambling Commission with an account number 21725. However, the developer also has an international presence run by the company Play’n GO Malta Limited. This company is registered in Sliema, Malta and has a license from both the UK Gambling Commission (account number 55949) and the Malta Gaming Authority (number MGA/B2B/225/2012).

As we already said, this Swedish software creator has a smaller portfolio than the other big names in the industry. For instance, Microgaming and NetEnt have a much larger game selection even though Play’n GO is on the same level with them when it comes to the gaming industry. One very positive thing about this developer is the GMT game management tool that they created. It’s a simple yet sophisticated tool that helps players customize their games just how they like them. Last but not least, we have to mention that this developer was the first one to do mobile gaming in the right way. They were one of the first ones to cooperate with some of the biggest mobile platforms in the world. This is what really helped them gain international recognition for their games.

Play’n GO Games

Like most online casino software developers, Play’n GO has a portfolio that covers everything from online slots to table games, bingo, and keno. Instead of quantity, this developer focuses on quality and their games are among the best-looking ones. Also, all their titles are available in an instant-play format. One very positive thing about their software is the creation of widget games. These are mini-games that online casinos can put into banner ads, etc. which means they can be used as promotional tools. As we already mentioned above, all games from this developer are available in 30 languages. That’s more than any other software developer out there.

On the bad side of things, they don’t have a live casino section and it’s something they should improve in the future. Live dealer games are extremely popular right now and Play’n GO won’t be able to keep up with their competition if they don’t create games that fit this category. Below, we are going to share some details about the different categories of games that this developer offers.

Online Slots

As with all developers, slot games dominate the portfolio as they are the most popular casino games at the moment. Slot titles by Play’n GO all have full HD graphics which is why these games are so popular. On top of that, the RTP in their games is always above 96% which is the industry average. It’s important to note that this developer does certain things differently than its competitors. For instance, they try to focus on creating original titles instead of branded games. It wasn’t until 2019 that they created their first branded slot game. The slot is called Sabaton, after one of the best Swedish metal bands in the world. They followed that by creating a branded slot called Twisted Sisters. It was another collaboration with a famous band, this time the American rock band Twisted Sister.

However, for now, those are the only branded titles that Play’n GO has created. In the section below, we will talk more about their original slot titles as they are the prized jewels of the gaming portfolio that this developer has.

Original Titles

The first games we will mention in this category are the Ancient-Egypt themed slot titles. These are the most played games that come from Play’n GO. They have a dozen titles in this category but the most popular ones seem to be ones that feature the character Rich Wilde. He is an explorer that enters the underworld of Ancient Egypt. For instance, Rich Wilde and the Book of Dead was the first game to feature this character. It was followed by two sequels known as Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena and Rich Wilde and the Tome of Madness. Regardless of the fact that these sequels had some improvements, the first one is still among the most played slots online.

Additionally, Play’n GO started creating titles that feature the daughter of their most famous character. Cat Wilde is the daughter of Rich Wilde and her first appearance was alongside her father in Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena. She became very popular and that’s why the developer made some games with her as the main protagonist. There are two games with her as the main character known as Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead and Cat Wilde in the Eclipse of the Sun God. Other popular titles with with an Ancient Egypt theme are Dawn of Egypt, Doom of Egypt, and Legacy of Egypt which is a trilogy of titles that follow the same story.

Among other themes, Play’n GO have created original titles based on Greek Mythology, Norse Mythology, Arthurian Legends, Halloween, Joker Series, Holiday Season games, and more. It’s interesting to note that over the last couple of years, the developer started releasing more games than usual. They were realizing four games a month for several months during 2021. Lastly, they also have a few progressive jackpot titles like Gunslinger and Fruit Bonanza.

Play’n GO Table & Other Casino Games

As we mentioned above, Play’n GO doesn’t have a live casino section but they do have some interesting casino games. First things first, just like with their slot titles, the graphics are excellent in all their casino games. They have several variants of Mini Baccarat, Roulette, Blackjack, and Casino Hold’em. However, that’s not all because the developer has also created some unique casino titles. For instance, they have titles like Money Wheel and Super Wheel which are prize wheel-style games. You bet on an outcome and then spin the wheel in hopes that it lands on a match.

There is one more title that you won’t see in many online casinos is Mahjong 88. This game is a combination of classic Mahjong and slots gameplay and provides a unique casino experience. Last but not least, we have to mention the Bingo catalogue that Play’n Go has created. At the moment, they have about a dozen video bingo games. The 75 or 90-ball bingo games are fully customizable and are available in a range of languages and currencies.
