NetEnt Slots

NetEnt is a Malta licensed company, but it is based in Sweden and you can find it listed at Stockholm’s NASDAQ OMX. Their content is translated in over 20 languages, and more are going to be added in the future, so the games and casinos that offer them are easily accessible all over the world. The RNG generator of their software was tested by two different independent auditors. To play their games, you just need to access the casino and the content will load up in your browser. They have instant play games, so you are not asked to download anything.

History

Behind NetEnt’s foray into the online casino industry stood a big casino operator from the Scandinavia region. They saw the potential of the online casino industry back in the 90s, and they started another company for the online branch in 1996, one of the first to do so. There was no software available back then that they would be satisfied with, so they created their own. Eventually, they gave up on their own online casinos in 2005 and now they focus only on offering software to other sites.

In 2006, the casino module offered by NetEnt was considered a top 20 offer by the industry and has been constantly improved since then. Their first mobile games were released to the market in 2011, the same year when they entered Italy, a market that was newly regulated. The next year they entered the Danish market as well, and they signed a couple of big agreements with Paddy Power and Boylesports.

NetEnt launched their Live Casino offer in 2013, while continuing to expand to new customers and adding more mobile content. They did even better in 2014, when 31 new customers were brought onboard, including big names like Betfair and bwin.party. They also started designing games only in HTML5, which worked just as well on mobile and desktop. They made a move from the online to the offline market in 2015, when land based machines got some of their games. The mobile live casino was released in 2016 and at that point about 39% of their revenues originated from this segment of the market.

NetEnt Casino Games

NetEnt is a major developer and has a big collection of games to offer their licensees. Over 200 games are offered at their casinos, out of which about 130 are the slot machines that have made them so popular among players. The games that they offer are mostly HTML5 titles, and even the older Flash based titles are being redesigned and brought to modern standards. All their titles are browser based and are easily accessible as a result. Most of them are also available on mobile devices, especially if they were made in HTML5.

The content they offer includes all the table games, video poker or slot machines you could want, but it also has live dealer titles and a mobile casino module. I’d say that the slot machines will give you the best reason to pay attention to them.

The 130 or so slots that are in NetEnt’s collection are among the best games that the online casino industry will offer. There are many other developers that have entertaining slots machines in their collection, but few do as good a job with their games on average, as NetEnt does with theirs. Simply put, it’s rare for them to screw up a slot machine, and most of them have excellent graphics and features to offer.

There are way too many great slot machines from NetEnt to be able to mention them all, so I will just give you a couple of examples, of slot machines that are favorites of mine. I’ve picked a couple that have unique themes, at least partially, and which also have a bit of humor in them. Slots like Wonky Wabbits and When Pigs Fly should provide you with plenty of entertainment. NetEnt continues to release new games each month, one or two titles usually, so their casinos always have new high quality content for players.

Graphics

The graphics is one of the big strengths that I think NetEnt has when compared with most developers. They’re not the only ones offering great designs, but their attention to detail is very high and on average I expect more from their new releases than from any other company. Whether you’re playing a game like Wild Turkey, Wild Water or Tornado Farm Escape, I’m sure that you will enjoy the design.

Features

NetEnt is one of the few developers of slot machines that offer it all, from graphics to features, and even big payouts in some cases. The first two constitute their biggest strengths though, and the features always seem to be interesting in the slots they design. It varies from one title to another, but usually there is a lot more going on in a slot of theirs, than in an average game. All types of wilds (expanding, regular, stacked, with multipliers), along with scatters, free spins, bonus games and interesting and unique features, these are things that you will have access to in slots from NetEnt.

Payouts

Mostly, the payouts coming from NetEnt tend to be on the small side, but that’s just because you’re getting a lot of features. They have plenty of slots with payouts of 500x to 1,000x, or even lower than that. They also have fairly high average RTP in their games, so in the long run you can still count on getting a decent shot at getting a good return on the amount you invest.
