Microgaming

Ever since Microgaming designed, developed and rolled out its first online casino game almost 20 years ago, it has evolved into an online casino game powerhouse, with a portfolio that today boasts over 600 games, and thanks to new game releases every month, continues to grow. Its software is available in 24 languages, with multi-currency options for a truly global reach.

History of microgaming

Microgaming Software Systems Ltd is widely considered to be one of the original pioneers of online gambling, when in the mid-1990s, the company founders realized the huge potential of gambling over the internet. From this realization, the first online casino games were developed.

So positive was the response to Microgaming’s earliest internet casino games that the firm began to grow from strength to strength, quickly becoming a benchmark that other firms have tried to follow ever since – like developing both downloadable and instant play flash casino games.

Between then and now, many online casino software vendors have come and gone, but none have continued to flourish and evolve the way Microgaming has. For this reason, Microgaming has licensed its software to more than 120 online casinos – including our host casino – aiming its products and services at regulated markets all over the world.
