The very first developer that created software exclusively for online casinos was Microgaming, responsible for launching the worlds very first online casino back in 1994 and to date the company is still in the top three providers of casino software, and rightly so. Today they are leaders in mobile billing casino software.
Founded in 1994 the world of online gambling would most likely be a totally different place, and as one of the key players Microgaming boast the biggest collection of casino games as well as being the developers of some of the world’s most popular online slot games.
Games include such titles as Mega Moolah, Avalon, The Game of Thrones and Thunderstruck. Microgaming actually provided its software in several versions which are Flash version (instant play) a downloadable application, a mobile version and the special platform, Quickfire.
Microgaming powers live casino games and its software is compatible with iOS, Android and Windows devices and with over 850 titles to date players are never going to be spoilt for choice as those 850 plus titles have over 1200 variations with the majority of those games being slot machines.
Playtech is also instantly recognisable as one of the best online casino software developers in the world. Offering functionality as well as superb quality lies at the heart of Playtech and as such they offer their online casinos in two versions. You can either download the desktop application or choose to play instantly. Both versions perform in pretty much the same manner although there are some differences in game availability as a few special games are still available only on the download version.
With more than 500 games to enjoy Playtech likes to release over 50 new titles every single year and most of those titles are modern 5-reel slots like The Mummy and Deal or No Deal. Players will find that all of Playtech slot games have AutoPlay and a Quick Spin option which makes the games run smoothly and gets players to the action quickly.
Last but definitely not least we are going to take a look at NetEnt which is renowned for the creation of games of the highest quality. This award-winning company still impresses with their innovative and visually stunning games. The big difference between NetEnt and other providers who usually sell an entire gaming platform complete with hundreds of games is that NetEnt sells each one of their games separately.
Although their catalogue of games is relatively small compared to others each one that players can enjoy is a true wonder and since they offer individual games it’s the instant-play casinos that benefit the most (although there are some operators that do offer NetEnt titles on their downloadable versions too)
Slot games provided by NetEnt are full of great features which make them extremely playable. You can choose to use the Quick Spin feature if time is short, or even have the games played automatically.
