Quickspin is a relatively new player in the casino software development industry but has already built a phenomenal reputation as being one of the best companies in the industry.
Quickspin’s efforts have gone only into slot game design with few other casino games currently on offer. As such, they’ve managed to put a lot of effort into each slot game they released to ensure they are all unique and offer impeccable quality.
Quickspin’s slot games are so popular that in 2012 they signed an agreement that made their games available to over half a million online gamblers. They are also the winners of the coveted EGR B2B award, Software Rising Star of the Year.
Today, players will be able to find Quickspin’s products in a number of well known online casinos including Betsafe Casino, Mr Green Casino, Unibet Casino, Maria Casino and Playhippo Casino.
Quickspin History
It is unclear when exactly Quickspin was founded, only that they are still new to the industry and that they’re based in Stockholm, Sweden. While their initial success was in the European market, they managed to break through into the Latin American market through a deal with Betmotion.
Quickspin’s success secret might lie with the three founding members. These tree professionals, all have extensive experience working in the iGaming industry. The CEO for example, Daniel Lindberg, was previously a Sales Director at Net Entertainment for a period of 5 years.
Their Vice President of Products, Mats Westerlund, also used to work at Net Entertainment albeit on the design of video slots. Their final member came from another reputable company, Unibet, where he served as part of the executive management team.
Quickspin Casino Games
As mentioned, Quickspin has only focused on creating video slot games thus far. It is not uncommon for a new company to focus on a specific product until they have a better foothold in the market.
All Quickspin’s games may be viewed from their website where users will be presented with an introduction video and they’ll also be able to play the games for free. Obviously, any winnings will be forfeit in such games but the purpose of this mode is for players to get to know the various games before putting their money on the line.
Quickspin has also worked in collaboration with UK based social gaming studio, Plumbee, to make some of their slot games available on social media giant, Facebook.
Although Quickspin doesn’t currently have any branded slot games available, they do however have a great list of fairy tale inspired games. These games include themes built around Goldilocks, Beowulf, the Three Musketeers, Treasure Island, Sinbad and Rapunzel. Another such game is Big Bad Wolf, a game that’s actually won an EGR Operator award.
One of their latest slot game creations is called Phoenix Sun which is based on the myths and tales of this legendary bird. Those who enjoy mythological lore will know that the Phoenix is said to live for thousands of years at a time and when they do die, they are reborn from their own ashes. This game has a unique layout in that is varies between 3 to 6 rows and offers a minimum of 243 ways to win and a maximum of 7776. Gathering 5 phoenix wild symbols will set the reels on fire just for them to rise again from the ashes and bring with them a number of free spins.
Big Bad Wolf, we’ve already mentioned is an award-winning slot game and is currently one of Quickspin’s favourites. This game as can probably be guessed is built on the tale of the 3 little pigs. The game offers what they call swapping symbols, also known as rolling reels or cascading reels. What this means is that when symbols form a winning line, they will disappear and make way for new symbols to appear which could create another winning line from a single spin. The game also offers wild and scatter symbols, free spins and multipliers. What really makes this game fun though is the quirky and cartoon art style. The reels are represented by the straw house at the start and as the game progresses the pigs have to run to the stick and later the brick houses to escape the Big Bad Wolf.
The Wild Chase is a slot game that incorporates a street racing theme with high-quality living. The game is set on a coastline reminiscent of Monaco which provides some flair to the scene. To add to the luxury lifestyle them, the symbols in this game include bundles of cash, watches, jewels, rings and a number of attractive characters. This game offers a re-spins feature which is triggered every time a winning combination appears. When this happens the winning symbols will remain in place while the rest of the reels spin again for a second chance at winning. This feature continues until there are no new winning combinations. The game also features wild symbols, payout multipliers and free spins.
