BGaming Review

Who Is BGaming? The SOFTSWISS Spin-Off Explained

The studio’s About page says its team has worked in iGaming “since 2012” and that the brand officially debuted in 2018. Trade press dates the launch to February 2018, when SOFTSWISS grouped its in-house games under the new name. According to the same coverage, its early games were built with crypto casinos in mind and accepted bitcoin from the start.

In a 2019 sponsored feature in iGaming Business, Marina Ostrovtsova, then the studio’s director, said it remained in the same group as SOFTSWISS but was “completely independent”, and that casinos did not need the SOFTSWISS platform to use its games. At that time it was described as a Minsk studio of about 20 people.

Today the operating company is Stable Games Ltd, registered in Valletta, Malta (company number C 93911 on the MGA register). The company says it has more than 350 staff, its headquarters in Malta and development offices in Poland and Georgia. Ostrovtsova is now CEO.

Current ownership is not published. None of the studio’s pages names a parent company, and SOFTSWISS’s site lists it only as a provider in its game aggregator, run by a separate MGA-licensed company, Stable Aggregator Limited. We therefore describe the link as historical and commercial, not as confirmed ownership.

BGaming Games: Slots, Casual Titles and Tables

BGaming games cover far more than reels. Its site sorts the catalogue into Slots, Casual, Cards, Dice, Roulette, Lottery and Scratch. Its About page adds video poker and crash games, though we found no video poker title in the current catalogue. It also groups titles into three “game worlds”: Casual, Classic and Entertainment.

BGaming table games are a smaller part of the range. Royal Roulette 500X is the main roulette title, Classic Baccarat (22 September 2026) lists a 98.76% RTP, and Multihand Blackjack Pro and French Roulette appear on its provably fair page.

BGaming says it has more than 250 games (one promo page says “over 150”); its sitemap lists 354 game URLs because seasonal reskins and “coming soon” pages count separately. It says it launches 3–5 games a month, and it builds exclusive games for individual casinos, so not every title appears everywhere.

Megaways, TRUEWAYS and the Studio's Own Mechanics

BGaming has trademarked several mechanics of its own. TRUEWAYS offers up to 262,144 ways to win, MultiDice X and SpinUp are newer feature systems, and Merge UP merges matching symbols (patent pending, the company says). The catalogue also uses Hold and Win, cluster pays and pays-anywhere grids.

It also makes Megaways slots, including Aztec Magic Megaways, Dragon Queen Megaways and Book of Cats Megaways, which carry the MEGAWAYS trademark. Megaways is a Big Time Gaming mechanic that other studios use under licence, but BGaming’s pages do not name a licensor, so we cannot tell you its terms.

Some slots have jackpots inside the game, such as the Mini, Major and Mega prizes in Elvis Frog in Vegas. We found no networked progressive jackpot.

Bonus Buy: Which Games Have It and What It Costs

A BGaming bonus buy skips the wait but raises the stake for that round, and it can empty a balance fast. Feature buys are not available in every market or at every casino, and many pages publish no price: the cost appears in a pop-up that changes with your bet, so read it before you confirm.

BGaming Games Compared: 18 Titles With Official Figures

Every figure below comes from the game’s official page on bgaming.com, read on 18 October 2026. Max win is a multiple of the bet, with the cash cap the page gives where it gives one. Dates are the release dates the site lists. The highest max win in the table is Bonanza Billion Xtreme at x20,000, then Bonanza Billion at x15,000.

New BGaming Games in 2026: Latest Releases

September and October dates are those of the company’s release posts and may differ from a casino’s go-live date.

Casual and Crash Games: Where BGaming Stands Out

The casual range sets this studio apart. Most of these games pair low volatility with a published RTP of 97% or more, but they still carry a house edge, and short rounds can make spending add up quickly.

BGaming Avia Masters: How Aviamasters and Aviamasters 2 Work

Aviamasters (the studio spells it as one word, though many players search for “Avia Masters BGaming”) launched on 2 July 2024 and became BGaming’s breakout title. A plane flies across the screen collecting multipliers, rockets halve the balance collected in that round, and the flight ends with an attempt to land on an aircraft carrier.

The official figures are a 97% RTP, low volatility and a max win of x250, capped at €250,000. The studio files it under Casual rather than slots, and named it among its top-performing games of 2025.

Aviamasters 2 (5 March 2026) keeps the 97.00% RTP but raises the max win to x1,000. It adds four boosters (Magnet, Laser Gun, Nitro and Life Buoy) and a Safe Landing buy that costs 50x the bet and, according to the game page, guarantees that every round ends in a win. A guaranteed win is not a guaranteed profit: the page does not say the win will be bigger than the 50x you paid.

BGaming Crash Games: Dragon's Crash and Always Up!

Dragon’s Crash (7 March 2024) is a true crash game: a multiplier climbs until the round crashes, and you cash out before then or set an auto cash-out multiplier. You can place more than one bet per round. The official figures are a 97% RTP, high volatility and a x10,000 max win, capped at €250,000.

Always Up! x10000 (4 February 2026) is a slot with a crash-style bonus: you pick one of five rockets and its multiplier applies to your bet. It lists a 96.05% RTP, very high volatility and a max win of x10,490. Crash rounds end suddenly, so decide your cash-out point before you start.

Plinko BGaming vs Plinko 2

Plinko (site date 28 January 2019) drops a ball through rows of pegs into multiplier pockets. You choose 8 to 16 lines and one of three risk levels, and play manually or on auto. It has a 99% RTP and a x1,000 max win, and it is the only game page we read that says the game is provably fair.

Plinko 2 (8 January 2025) keeps the 99% RTP, is rated low volatility and lifts the max win to x10,000, capped at €250,000. You can drop 1 to 100 balls per press, and it adds x2 and x4 multiplier balls, respin vortexes and movable x2 multipliers. Its page cites a certified RNG rather than provably fair play. The company also named Plinko 2 among its top-performing games of 2025.

Minesweeper BGaming and Fortune Red Packets: Step-by-Step Risk

Minesweeper is the studio’s take on the “mines” format: you pick tiles move by move, the multiplier climbs while you avoid the hidden hazard, and a Collect button lets you bank what you have. The page lists 3 to 15 moves, 2 to 6 tiles per row and a 98.4% RTP; its FAQ adds low volatility and a max multiplier of x15.11.

In Fortune Red Packets BGaming applies the same idea to a 5×12 ladder (released 10 February 2026). Each row hides four coins and one firecracker: a coin moves you up a row, the firecracker ends the round. The official figures are a 98.40% RTP, low volatility and x14.28 at the top row, with a €7,140 max win in the game details. The game’s own FAQ says “up to x1,750”, which contradicts its details box and looks like an error, so we use x14.28.

Our own arithmetic shows why the top row is rare. If every tile in a row is equally likely to hide the firecracker, each pick is safe four times in five, so clearing all 12 rows happens about 0.8¹² of the time, roughly 6.9%. That fits the published figures: 6.9% of x14.28 is close to the 98.4% RTP. The page’s listed hit rate of 1.25 fits too, since one in 1.25 is 80%.

Balloon Mania BGaming

With Balloon Mania BGaming offers a casual multiplier game (27 May 2025) that you can play in manual or spins mode, with multipliers from x1.1 to x64. The official figures are a 97% RTP, low volatility, a x64 max win capped at €256,000 and a hit rate of 1.13. One casino blog we found calls it a high-volatility 2024 video slot at 94.15%, which contradicts the official page on all three points.

Royal Roulette 500X BGaming: Lightning Multipliers

In Royal Roulette 500X BGaming adds Lightning multipliers of x50 to x500 to up to three numbers per round, and they apply to straight-up bets only. The game (24 March 2026) also has a strategy mode, a track layout and call bets. The page lists a 97.30% RTP, low volatility and a €250,000 max win, and gives it a #Casual tag, though its details box lists the game type as Roulette.

Best BGaming Slots: Snoop Dogg Dollars, Bonanza Billion and More

The best BGaming slots depend on how much risk you want, so we did not rank by RTP alone. Our picks had to meet three tests: full official figures (RTP, volatility and max win) on the game page, a spread across the volatility range from medium-high to very high, and a distinct mechanic, from cluster grids to pays-anywhere reels. These are the best BGaming online slots by those tests.

Snoop Dogg Dollars BGaming: The Licensed Celebrity Slot

Snoop Dogg Dollars was the studio’s first celebrity-branded slot. Its official page says it was developed “in partnership and under license from Kerma Games”. A September 2026 announcement explains that Kerma Games holds the exclusive gaming rights to Snoop Dogg’s likeness and brand, and the title is now presented as “Kerma Games x BGaming”. The initial agreement runs through 2026, and both companies said they are exploring ways to continue beyond that.

The game ran first as an exclusive at one casino brand from 25 September 2024; the official page gives 30 October 2024 as its release date. It plays on a 6×8 grid with cluster pays, sticky wilds and cell multipliers, a “Snoop Spin” that costs 20x the bet, a four-option Buy Bonus and a voiceover recorded by Snoop Dogg himself. Official figures: 96.00% RTP, very high volatility and a x10,000 max win, capped at €250,000.

Bonanza Billion and Bonanza Billion Xtreme

Bonanza Billion (2 December 2021) is a pays-anywhere slot with refilling reels and a buy bonus, at 95.97% RTP and up to x15,000, capped at €180,000. Its page labels volatility “Low-high” while its FAQ says high. The March 2026 sequel, Bonanza Billion Xtreme, raises the ceiling to x20,000 at 96.97% RTP and very high volatility.

Aztec Clusters, Merge Up and Other High-Risk Slots

Aztec Clusters (February 2024) is a 6×8 cluster slot at 97% RTP and x10,000, with feature buys from 100x to 800x the bet. The company says it designed the game using analysis of 10,000 hours of streams with the analytics firm Casinolytics. Merge Up (October 2023, 97.25%, x5,000) merges matching symbols on a 6×6 grid.

Aztec Magic Megaways (January 2022, 96.96%, x12,960) is one of the titles the studio features on its provably fair page. Book of Cats (July 2020, 96.99%, x8,202) uses a book-style expanding symbol on 10 lines and has a buy bonus. All four are rated very high volatility.

Classic BGaming Slots: Elvis Frog in Vegas, Fruit Million and Chicken Rush

For something less extreme, Elvis Frog in Vegas (May 2020) is a 5×3, 25-line slot with Mini, Major and Mega jackpots in its Coin Respin feature, at 95.3% RTP and x2,500. Fruit Million (December 2020, 97.34%, x3,000) is a 100-line fruit slot with an expanding wild and a gamble feature, and Chicken Rush (May 2024, 97%, x5,000) has 243 lines and a three-tier buy bonus. All three are rated medium-high volatility.

BGaming RTP: One Published Figure per Game

RTP (return to player) is the share of all money staked that a game is designed to pay back over a very long run. On this point BGaming is unusual. Every official game page we read shows exactly one RTP and a maximum multiplier, and all but Plinko give a volatility label (Minesweeper only in its FAQ). None of the 18 pages listed alternative RTP versions, and we found no operator-selectable settings on the pages we checked.

Compare that with other studios. Hacksaw Gaming lists several RTP versions on many game pages, and seven on its Plinko page; ELK Studios publishes ranges down to 87.0% on many recent sheets; and Play’n GO publishes no RTP on its own site.

Two caveats. First, we could not confirm that casinos never receive other versions; we only know the studio publishes one. Second, the catalogue varies: across the released games we checked, RTPs run from 93.75% (Fire Lightning, 2018) to 99% (Plinko and Plinko 2), so “BGaming RTP” is not one number. On £1,000 of total stakes, a 99% game such as Plinko is designed to return about £990 on average and Elvis Frog in Vegas (95.3%) about £953. Any single session can land far from either figure.

The BGaming Players Hub shows live RTP for the last hour, 24 hours and 7 days, aggregated from the company’s servers with no published methodology. Its FAQ says “cold” games “might pay soon”. They do not: each round is independent, so a game is never “due” a win.

Highest and Lowest RTP Games We Found

These are the highest official BGaming RTP figures among the titles we checked on 18 October 2026, with the lowest released title for contrast. RTP is only part of the picture: Cat’s Soup and Fortune Spin are medium volatility, so dry spells are still possible.

Volatility and Max Win: Read the Labels Carefully

BGaming volatility labels run from Low to Very high. The casual games lean low, with small ceilings such as x64 on Balloon Mania; the newer slots lean very high, with ceilings of x10,000 or more. A high RTP does not make a game gentle on your budget: at very high volatility a balance can drain long before a big feature arrives. Cash caps can bite first, too: Bonanza Billion’s x15,000 is capped at €180,000.

BGaming Crypto and Provably Fair: The Facts

According to 2018 trade coverage, BGaming has worked with crypto since its start. Its FAQ says its games support cryptocurrencies, fiat money and virtual (social casino) currencies. That describes what the software can handle; it is not a recommendation. Whether you can use crypto at all depends on your casino’s licence and the law where you live.

BGaming also says it was “the first major iGaming provider” to introduce provably fair play, a marketing claim we could not verify. Its provably fair page explains the method:

• Before you bet, the game fixes the result, adds a random secret and shows you a SHA-256 hash of the two.
• You can keep the client seed the system picks or enter your own, and the seed is applied to the result.
• After the round you receive the result, the secret and the final result. You can hash the result and secret yourself to check they match the hash you were shown, then apply your client seed to the result, using the method in the game’s rules, to check it gives the final result.

What it proves, and what it doesn’t. A matching hash shows the base result was fixed before you bet, and the seed check shows your own input was applied to it. It does not prove the game’s RTP, it does not remove the house edge, and it only helps if your casino actually shows you the verification data.

It also covers selected games only: the page features titles such as French Roulette, Multihand Blackjack Pro and Aztec Magic Megaways, and of the game pages we read only Plinko’s says it is provably fair. Others, such as Plinko 2 and Fortune Red Packets, cite a certified RNG instead.

BGaming Demo and BGaming Free Play: Try Games Safely

Every game review on FAQsino includes a free demo where the studio allows it, so the place to try BGaming demo slots is our game reviews. A BGaming demo, sometimes called demo mode or play for fun, uses play money: nothing you win has any cash value, and nothing can be withdrawn or moved to a real-money account.

• Age checks still apply. UK-licensed casinos must verify your age before letting you use free play.
• A demo is not a forecast. A lucky run of play-money drops in Plinko says nothing about the next real-money round.
• Buy features feel free in a demo. The 800x buy on Aztec Clusters would cost £800 at a £1 base bet with real money.
• Beware look-alike sites. Search results for queries such as “play BGaming slots”, “BGaming play slots” or “BGaming mobile” include many look-alike domains built around the brand or single game names, some offering an app download. The official domain is bgaming.com, and the studio is a supplier, not a casino.

If you later play BGaming slots online for real money, set a deposit limit first. If free play starts to feel like practice for chasing wins, our Responsible Gambling page lists tools and free support, and UK players can also contact GamCare or BeGambleAware.

BGaming Mobile: Browser Play, No Official App

BGaming mobile play happens in your phone’s browser or inside your casino’s own app. Game pages such as Aviamasters and Minesweeper say the games are mobile-compatible, and the catalogue has a “Portrait Mode” filter for titles built to be played upright. We found no consumer app published by the studio, and the app pages that appear in search results sit on unofficial domains.

BGaming’s own mobile article says the core maths and features are the same on phone and desktop and that the games run in a browser without a download. Treat that as a company statement: we have not run device tests, so check the RTP in the game rules on your own phone.

BGaming Licences: What We Confirmed and What Is Only Claimed

We checked the MGA licensee register on 18 October 2026: Stable Games Ltd (C 93911) holds licence MGA/B2B/785/2020, a B2B critical gaming supply licence for Type 1 gaming services, with the status Licensed. The company’s footer gives the issue date as 18 March 2021.

We also found Stable Games Ltd on Spelinspektionen’s licence register with an active gaming software licence, valid from 9 July 2025 to 8 July 2030. Everything else in the table below comes from the company’s own pages or trade press, not from a register we could check.

Can UK Players Play BGaming Games?

We searched the UK Gambling Commission public register on 18 October 2026 for Stable Games, BGaming and SOFTSWISS and found no UKGC licence for any of them, and the company does not claim one either.

If you are in the UK, play only at UKGC-licensed casinos. Under the Commission’s licence condition 2.2.1, those casinos may only use gambling software made by holders of a UKGC gambling software licence, so they should not be offering its games unless the studio gains one. UK players are better protected on the regulated market. Our UK Gambling Commission review explains what that licence covers.

Is BGaming Safe? Reputation, Awards and Player Feedback

We found no fine, sanction or lawsuit against Stable Games Ltd or the brand in the sources we checked, though we did not search every regulator’s enforcement records.

In September 2026, press investigations based on leaked Curaçao regulator files named the SOFTSWISS group in reporting on Curaçao-licensed casinos. The studio was not named in the coverage we read, and SOFTSWISS and the Curaçao Gaming Authority both disputed the reporters’ characterisation.

Player opinion is harsher. On Trustpilot, BGaming’s claimed profile showed a TrustScore of 1.6 from 79 reviews on 18 October 2026: 76% one-star and 18% five-star. Trustpilot notes the company has not recently invited reviews, so the sample may not be representative.

Most complaints allege that games pay less than their stated RTP or that crash rounds end early too often. These are unverified opinions, often about third-party casinos, but they are a reminder that a published RTP is a long-run average, not a promise for your session.

BGaming Awards

• SiGMA Europe B2B Awards 2024: Best Game Studio, named in the company’s own 2024 review and reported by SiGMA.
• SBC Awards 2025: Slots Developer of the Year – Medium (Lisbon, September 2025), as reported by SBC News. The company’s own pages call it “Casino/Slots Developer of the Year”.
• Aviamasters: Best Casino Game 2025 at a SiGMA awards event, according to the company; its pages name both SiGMA Central Europe and SiGMA Europe.
• SiGMA Eurasia 2025: Best Game Studio, as claimed on its homepage.

The About page lists other wins, including EiGE awards in 2023 and 2025, which we have not checked with the organisers.

BGaming Casinos: How to Choose a Licensed Site

BGaming online casinos are simply casinos that have added its games, either through a direct deal or one of the 40+ aggregator platforms the studio works with. BGaming claims more than 3,000 clients, so its logo on a loading screen tells you little about the site itself. The best BGaming casinos are the ones that pass the same checks as any casino:

1. A licence where you live, checked on the regulator’s own register rather than trusted from a footer logo.
2. The games you want, actually in the lobby. Availability differs by country, and some titles are exclusive to one operator.
3. The official RTP in the game rules, matching our tables.
4. Clear withdrawal terms: limits, timescales and verification rules.
5. Safer-gambling tools: deposit limits, time-outs, reality checks and self-exclusion. UK players can register with GAMSTOP for free self-exclusion from licensed online gambling sites.

If something goes wrong in a game, contact the casino’s support first: BGaming support is aimed at operators, each of which gets a technical account manager, according to its FAQ.

BGaming Casinos, Casino Sites and the "BGaming Network"

We do not hand-pick BGaming casino sites. Every casino we have reviewed that carries its games appears in the “Casinos with BGaming Games” section at the bottom of this page, ranked by FAQsino Trust Score and geo-targeted, so you only see BGaming online slot sites relevant to where you are.

You may also see the phrase “BGaming network”. We found no official programme or casino group by that name on the studio’s site. The name appears in bgaming-network.com, the domain BGaming uses to host game launches, demos and rules pages. The closest real things are its client casinos, the aggregators that distribute its games and its Players Hub.

How to Recognise a BGaming Game

Clues that help you spot one of its games in a casino lobby:

• Familiar families: Elvis Frog, the Aztec titles, Bonanza Billion and Aviamasters all have sequels or spin-offs.
• Mechanic tags in the name: TRUEWAYS, Megaways, Hold and Win, Merge Up or Xtreme.
• Casual formats: plane flights, crash rounds, Plinko boards, mines grids and balloon games sit alongside the slots.

BGaming vs Nolimit City, Hacksaw Gaming, Novomatic and Quickspin

How it compares with four other studios we reviewed this month, using only what each company or regulator publishes:

What We Could Not Verify

As of 18 October 2026 we could not confirm:

• Who owns BGaming today, and whether it is still part of the SOFTSWISS group.
• Licences beyond Malta and Sweden on the regulators’ own registers, including Curaçao, Spain, Greece and Romania.
• Whether casinos can receive RTP versions other than the one on each game page.
• The licensor and terms behind its Megaways titles.
• Awards other than SiGMA Europe 2024 and SBC 2025, on the organisers’ own sites.
• A single founding year: 2012 roots and a 2018 brand launch are both company statements.

Our Verdict on BGaming

This is one of the most transparent studios we have reviewed on game maths and one of the most inventive outside standard slots. Aviamasters, Plinko 2, Minesweeper and Fortune Red Packets give you low-volatility games with published RTPs of 97% to 99%, Dragon’s Crash covers crash play, and Snoop Dogg Dollars, Bonanza Billion Xtreme and Aztec Clusters cover the high-risk end.

The weak spot is licensing. Only its Malta and Swedish licences are confirmed on regulators’ registers, we found no UKGC licence, and its other licences are claims without numbers. Try the games in FAQsino’s demos first, check that your casino is licensed where you live, confirm the RTP in the game rules and set a deposit limit before you play.
