Some Background on Pragmatic Play
This innovative outfit may not have the most exciting name, but its entertaining games make it a popular choice for both casino operators and their players. The word ‘pragmatic’ carries with it an impression of compromise and functionality – a bit average maybe. Have no fear though, Pragmatic Play games include some popular and well known titles and are of the highest quality. They are well worth their place on the roster of any self-respecting online casino.
Founded as recently as 2015, the company has developed into a truly international operation. It has around five hundred employees, distributed around much of Europe, Asia and South America. Pragmatic Play have administrative offices on the Mediterranean territories of Gibraltar and Malta, but much of the game development work is done elsewhere. The company have major offices in Belgrade (Serbia), Bucharest (Romania) and Kiev and Zhytomyr (Ukraine) in south east Europe as well as a studio in London. Further afield, there are major centres in Hyderabad and Noida (India) plus further premises in The Philippines and Buenos Aires in Argentina.
Pragmatic Play Games
Despite the relative youthfulness of the company, Pragmatic Play have already developed a considerable portfolio of around two hundred different games. These comprise most of the types of games you would expect to find on a typical online casino. As is typical of most similar companies, most of these are slots.
While Pragmatic Play do not have any real smash hit titles, they do have some very popular games in their locker. Great Rhino is a firm player favourite and almost always on the playlist of any online casino which features the company’s games. Its series of John Hunter titles are also frequently played. Bearing more than a passing resemblance to the iconic Indiana Jones movie franchise, the all-action daredevil Mr Hunter is certainly built from the same cloth. Games in this series include John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure, Book of Tut and the Tomb of the Scarab Queen.
Another big title in the company’s cannon, this time officially licenced from the megahit TV series, is Peaky Blinders. In total, there are probably around a dozen different Pragmatic Play titles which can be considered essential picks for any online casino operator’s game compiler. These will almost certainly include Asgard, The Great Chicken Escape and Vampires vs Wolves.
The company now have a sufficiently extensive range of titles to enable them to comprehensively cover all the main slot genres. By far the most extensively covered is the ever popular Chinese Luck theme. There are at least a dozen different titles which fit into this topic, including Caishen’s Cash, 5 Lions Dance, Lucky New Year and Triple Dragons. For pharaonic fans there is Ancient Egypt, Pyramid King, Queen of Gold and more.
Followers of the Irish Luck theme will find titles like Emerald King, Leprechaun Song and Wild Wild Riches, while fans of the more traditional fruit machine should enjoy Extra Juicy, Fruit Rainbow and Super 7s. There is also a small selection of around half a dozen old school classic three reel slots for players to choose from.
Other games in the Pragmatic Play portfolio include a handful of traditional table games. These include Baccarat, Blackjack and Roulette. There is also a range of around half a dozen scratch cards. These are customised versions of the company’s branded slot titles.
The name may not imply all action adventure, but players would be unwise to underestimate this talented outfit. Casino operators certainly don’t, with many already signed up to carry the company’s games as an established part of their casinos’ games roster.
