Red Tiger Casinos
A group of industry veterans were behind the launch of Red Tiger and despite emerging into an already competitive and over-populated software developing industry, they made an instant impression. Founded in 2014, Red Tiger were able to rise fame in a short space of time thanks to their creative team of mathematicians, graphic designers, software developers, audio engineers, gambling experts QA’s, account managers and what they call “secret magicians”. Each and one of these team members have a role to fill in delivering the ultimate gaming experience for the player. With gambling licenses in four jurisdictions; the UK – the UK Gambling Commission, Malta – the Malta Gaming Authority, Alderney – the Alderney Gambling Control Commission and Gibraltar – HM Government of Gibraltar, means they’re certified for numerous jurisdictions and are continuously looking to add more licenses to the ones they currently hold.
Red Tiger History
Specialising in video slots, Red Tiger (also known as Red Tiger Gaming), delivers innovative titles with engaging features and mega win potential. A proven track record in casino game development in both Europe and Asia has paved the way for many an award, which are explained in the next section.
It was in 2019, some five years after launching when NetEnt – the award-winning Swedish software provider made a bid to buy Red Tiger, an all-cash bid worth £220 million.
Therese Hillman, Group CEO of NetEnt said during a press release on September 5th, 2019: “I am very pleased to welcome Red Tiger into the NetEnt Group. The acquisition combines two of the leading and most innovative companies in the online gaming industry. We look forward to working with Red Tiger’s fantastic team to enhance our combined global reach and to offer further value to operators and players. The transaction will provide significant revenue synergies across our markets worldwide.”
In 2020, the acquisition of Red Tiger was complete making it NetEnt’s first-ever acquisition, and the gaming communities were instantly treated to a ‘merger’ treat; Piggy Riches Megaways; the original NetEnt release of Piggy Riches with the brilliant new Megaways reel mechanic, and Red Tiger had more than a hand in its production. The integration was in line with the strategy of the Stockholm listed developer to improve all aspects of their business, which was estimated to result in an annual saving of SEK150m (£12.6m/€13.6m/$14.7m) by Q2 of 2020.
With a global client base, Red Tiger can be found among the very biggest to the most innovative of start-ups, resulting in more than 100 partners which is a figure which is only set to soar! Paddy Power, Bet Victor, GVC Holdings, William Hill, 888 Casino, Casumo, Leo Vegas, Play OJO, Mr Green and the Rank Group are among the list of ever-growing partners.

The team at Red Tiger HQ work tirelessly to ensure gamers have something new to playtime and time again, and not just once a month – multiple times a month. Slot game titles fly off the conveyor belt quicker than any other software developer and each and everyone delivers something unique in terms of themes, pays and bonus features.
Red Tiger Megaways Slots
Megaways branded slots are by far the biggest attraction with upwards of 117,649 ways to win per spin! Dragon’s Fire Megaways is one of those games played most often and it’s easy to see why; a multiplier which increases with each consecutive win (during both the base game and free spins), wilds, free spins with cascading reel engines and consecutive multipliers, a randomly triggered bonus which could result in one of two bonuses; two free spins symbols being delivered to the reels (you just need to land the third) or epic wilds and then, the last feature is the random dragon’s eye multiplier; here, when summoned, the eye will boost your winnings by as much as 10x! It’s not only the dragon’s that have all the Megaways fun; adventurers too!
Another NetEnt original was given thee Megaways and the Red Tiger treatment after the acquisition and resulted in player’s picking up where they left off with Gonzo’s Quest.
Table Games
Table games include blackjack, European roulette and baccarat, each with a first-person style of play with no cameras, no live dealers, no countdown timers and no distractions. Place your bets and play against the RNG at a pace that suits you. Never again will you feel the need to place irrational bets, because the game begins when you’re ready!
Despite being ‘standard’ table games, Red tiger has a way of fooling the mind into thinking you are at a real casino. Superior graphics, impressive audio and a screen enabling you to keep track of history and your bets, all go a long way to helping you pick up a win.
All Red Tiger Gaming titles are available in real play money mode and demo play; the latter allows you to play for free to get a better understanding of how the game operates. Benefits of a demo include being able to anticipate a win, recognising what symbols are needed to land a win and being given a practice shot at the bonuses.
Red Tiger Jackpots
There are jackpots then there are Red Tiger jackpots – jackpots that have revolutionised the iGaming industry! Must Drop and Daily Drop Jackpots have taken the online casino industry by storm whereby a network of slots can produce eye-popping jackpots far more often than other slots. The hugely popular concept are progressive jackpots that are guaranteed to pay out before a specific time – each hour and each day! Also, there are two other progressive jackpots as part of this network; a jackpot that is guaranteed to go before its final sum and one that can keep on building with no upper limit!
As the deadline ticks closer to the hourly and daily jackpots, the prize increases and so does the chance of you triggering it. This concept is so popular in fact, many online casino operators have introduced a new gaming category solely for Red Tiger must drop titles.
To give you an idea of how the brainchild was birthed, Director of Business Development at Red Tiger, Carl Ejlertsson said: “Ahead of the 2016 World Cup, Paddy Power asked us to develop a concept that would add excitement to playing a slot game at the same time a World Cup game was coming to an end. We came up with the idea of having a jackpot that would drop at a certain time during the game and then adapted this to be a daily thing. So, it was an idea born out of necessity and we stumbled upon what has become a very popular concept.”
How to win one; to stand a chance of winning, you need to play qualifying Red Tiger titles. You can tell which games are included in the jackpot network upon launch what with there being bulging cash post positioned to the left of the reels. There is a specific symbol that is needed; a jackpot symbol but not just the one – three! If two should spin in, a dragon will become visible to the lover of the reels to add to the excitement and anticipation of the third dropping – if no third jackpot symbol appears, you’re back to square one. If you manage to spin in three jackpot symbols, you are guaranteed one of the jackpots; hourly (only at selected operators), daily, mega or super on a spin of the multi-coloured wheel.
The amount you can win will be determined by the number of players playing when the jackpot is triggered. Typically speaking, the average daily drop is between £40K and £50K, but it can be higher or lower. “Thursday and Friday nights tend to be the peak periods for Must Drop and Daily Drop jackpots so if you are seeking a bigger potential win, that is the time to play,” says Carl. Must Drop and Daily Drop are smaller than the other progressives, but your chances of winning are much better than the main pot which can keep on growing for weeks, month and years on end!
