NSoft's overview on regulatory challenges in SEEReading Time: 3 minutes

 

Regulatory requirements strengthening the company’s know-how

 

In today’s business, the companies are being increasingly challenged with efforts to reach all set financial targets, and at the same time to comply with complex regulatory requirements. Gambling regulation is one of the most demanding areas for regulation in every legal system. If this fact is complemented by the fact that NSoft​ operates in over 35 countries (35 different legal systems) then it’s easily understandable that NSoft’s high regulatory challenges require continuous dedication.

However, with its expertise, NSoft is absolutely serious market player, playing a demanding regulatory “match” as well as complying with standards that regulators place in front of both, the company and its clients. Through the prism of NSoft, this match is to be perceived from two angles. The first one is where NSoft directly applies regulations in its field of activity, and the second one is when NSoft provides professional and advisory support to its clients. In both cases there is absolute commitment to comply with all regulatory standards in ensuring high quality business.

Dealing with the legal and regulatory risk

As said in the introduction, the regulatory requirements are becoming more and more complex, the intention is to regulate the market as much as possible. The special challenge are the growing sanctions for breach of the regulatory standards, which can expose each company both, financially and reputationally.

The question of how to deal with all of these challenges becomes legit. Many would say that it is enough to only know the rules and apply them consistently. However, NSoft approaches those problems much more comprehensively. Knowledge of regulations is something that is mandatory. Nevertheless, one should be aware that today’s regulations are so often ambiguous, leaving room for more interpretations and thus creating disagreements in deciding how to apply certain regulation and consequently leading to legal insecurity. In such situations it is not only crucial to know the regulation, but to​ manage legal and regulatory risk​.

There is no uniform definition of these risks, but it is evident that the unexpected interpretation of the law or legal uncertainty could lead to financial, reputational or other damage for the company. This practically means that it is necessary to assess the risk, manage it, but in a way that does not cause any loss to the company or client, and that such a solution provides the basis for achieving previously agreed business objectives. Having this approach, in such an uncertain regulatory environment, allows us to provide additional security to our customers as we perceive these situations as a common challenge. New regulatory frameworks or modifications of the existent ones are approached from the aspect of rationality that is directly related to the aforementioned risk assessment.

This particularly implies on:

– establishing the sequence of activities of all participants

– defining the places and ways for cooperation and coordination of activities of different participants
– defining and managing tasks, both individual and team tasks

SEE region expecting changes to legal acts

If we take as an example the regulatory framework of the countries that geographically belong to South East Europe, then one basic common characteristics is easily identified – the need for a continuous improvement of improper legal solutions, completion of the process of harmonization with EU standards for non EU member states such as BiH, Serbia and Montenegro. Over the next period, from the aspect of regulation, both for clients and NSoft, the challenge will be to monitor the announced changes to legal acts within the gaming​ industry.

NSoft wants to be an active participant, whenever possible and when the procedures permit, in creation of regulations, making suggestions and objections, all with the aim of creating a better regulatory framework. We are aware that social responsibility in this segment is extremely important. As a company we are absolutely qualified for this kind of contribution to the community.

Games Lift 2025: Hamburg Incubator Supports Five new Developer Teams

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Five teams have convinced the Games Lift awarding committee of the potential of their game projects.  On September 8, the Games Lift incubator will launch its next round, supporting teams with a one-year workshop and mentoring program featuring input from international industry experts and 15,000 euros in financial support. More than 30 experts from the Games Lift Network will share their experience with the teams and provide professional and tailored support for the game projects. In addition to the extensive exchange, mentoring, and many workshops, the teams will travel to an international industry event together. This combination of benefits makes Games Lift unique as an incubator for games in Germany. The Games Lift Incubator is organized and run by Gamecity Hamburg on behalf of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.

In its sixth year since its introduction, a total of 43 teams and solo developers applied to participate in the Games Lift Incubator – more than twice as many as in previous years. The decision on the five participating teams was made by the award committee, consisting of Kristin von der Wense (Publishing Producer, Daedalic Entertainment), Ole Schaper (Managing Director, The Sandbox Hamburg (Sviper GmbH)), Heiko Gogolin (Managing Director, Rocket Beans Entertainment), and Tobias Graff (Co-Founder Mooneye Studios).

Margarete Schneider, Project Manager at Gamecity Hamburg and also part of the selection committee, said: “We are delighted about the rising awareness and popularity of Games Lift – this year we received applications from seven countries and three continents. However, we also see the growing demand as a sign that, in the current industry situation, low-threshold support programs such as the Games Lift Incubator are becoming even more important. We are therefore very pleased to accompany five Hamburg teams on their way to the successful release of their first title.”

The five games and teams for the Games Lift Incubator 2025 are:

  • The Wrong Horse by Sharon Sacks & Vincent Will
  • Encaged and Ungraded by Leif Gutowski
  • Fading Skies by Distant Blue
  • Phasmopass by Curio Compass
  • Project: Slimepot by Calluna Games

The Wrong Horse is a colorful murder mystery adventure set at a horse racing track. As a journalist, it is the player’s task to uncover the secrets surrounding the mysterious death of a jockey and identify the perpetrator.

Encaged and Ungraded is a mixture of anomaly horror and job simulation. A shady company forces players into the role of a card grader, where they check various cards for authenticity and quality. But soon, players find themselves searching for eerie and dangerous anomalies – and hopefully they can make it through to the end of their shift.

Fading Skies revives the charm of the PS2 and GameCube era by combining classic 3D platforming with modern action RPG elements. As Ryn, a young woman accompanied by a small magical dragon, players travel through a broken world full of secrets. The mission is to stop the planet’s decay and confront the shadows of a forgotten past.

Phasmopass is a turn-based roguelite. Players lead a team of humans trapped in a never-ending volleyball reality show against ghostly opponents. Powerful items and pacts with other ghosts help players win tournaments to escape the dystopian city of Limbo!

Project: Slimepot (working title) is an action-adventure game in which players explore a dungeon full of monsters, turn them into dishes, and serve them to guests in their tavern. Here, exciting dungeon crawling meets creative cooking and relaxed tavern management.

Chili Poppers is a spicy, Mexican-themed descendant of the popular Happy Fortune Dragon™, featuring a 5×3 layout with 10 win-lines.

With locked Wilds and persistent enhancements during Free Spins, Chili Poppers offers explosive win potential and player engagement.

Bichos Mágicos is Inspired first Brazilian Portuguese game. It brings vibrant, cartoon-style charm to an 8-symbol scatter-pays mechanic and fun cascading wins. Multipliers ranging from 2x to 10x can drop throughout the gameplay, culminating in a Mystery Multiplier worth up to 500x after cascades end. Designed for casual players, the game also includes Bonus Buy and Fortune Bet features, giving users more control and faster access to the game’s high-energy Bonus round.

Bigger Piggy Bank, the sequel to Inspired’s successful Big Piggy Bank™, enhances the original’s popular cash collector mechanic with fresh features and more fun ways to win. Players are rewarded with big wins when Collector symbols land on reel five, randomly triggering a Bonus Wheel that offers Free Spins, Prize Pots, or Golden Piggy Free Spins. With the chance to land oversized symbols, Prize Pot Tokens, and a coveted Grand Prize, Bigger Piggy Bank delivers an engaging experience. For added control, players can use the Bonus Buy feature to enter the Bonus directly and Fortune Spins for the opportunity to focus on collecting piggy wins. The Gamble feature allows players to risk their base game wins to win more cash or trigger the bonus game.

Slotsoo Awards 2025: Celebrating Excellence Across Casinos and Game Providers

Published

Reading Time: 2 minutes

 

Summer is here and it is time for Slotsoo’s signature celebration of the iGaming industry. The Slotsoo Casino Awards return for its third edition, continuing the tradition of highlighting operators who excel in delivering a top-tier player experience. This year also marks an exciting expansion with the inaugural Slotsoo Game Provider Awards, giving long-overdue recognition to the creators of great slots.

The New Game Provider Awards and the Winners

Game providers are sometimes overshadowed by casinos, but in reality, both are equally important to the online casino experience. That’s why Slotsoo is proud to shine a spotlight on the studios behind the reels. The winners of Slotsoo’s first provider-focused awards were announced on 24 July 2025, and the honors went to:

  • The Machine MVP – Pragmatic Play
  • Bonus Buyer – Bullshark Games
  • Volatility Virtuoso – Wazdan
  • Jackpot Jumbo – Mancala Gaming
  • Symphony Spinner – Gamzix
  • Reel Renegade – Nolimit City
  • Promising Prodigy – Slammer Studios

Please visit the Slotsoo Game Provider Awards page for detailed descriptions of each trophy and the motivations behind the winners.

The Anatomy of Slotsoo’s Trophies: Where Fun Meets Serious Recognition

At Slotsoo, each trophy is whimsical by design but grounded in real player values, making the Slotsoo Awards both entertaining and insightful. Every category has a clear purpose, recognizing what truly matters in iGaming today.

At the core of each awards lineup is a main trophy: The Gambling GOAT honors the top-performing casino operator, while The Machine MVP celebrates the best overall game provider. Surrounding these main awards are a collection of supporting trophies, spotlighting specific areas of excellence, from fast withdrawals and fun bonuses to volatility and winning potential.

These award categories offer a chance for actors who crush it in a certain area to be recognized, even if they don’t dominate across the board. Just like other iGaming awards, Slotsoo includes a category for newcomers, encouraging fresh talent and pushing established names to keep innovating.

The timing of the awards is also a deliberate choice. Markus Björk, head writer at Slotsoo, explains the team’s reasoning:

“After a hectic Winter and Spring packed with iGaming events, June and July offer a rare chance for the industry to slow down and reflect on the year so far. Let’s enjoy the cucumber season and appreciate what’s been achieved. This is when you can harvest the rewards of your hard work before autumn arrives with new challenges and opportunities.”

The Winning Casino Operators 2025

The Slotsoo Casino Awards 2025 took place in June, and these were the seven winners:

  • The Gambling GOAT – Betizy
  • The Bonus Buff – Sugarino
  • The Loyalty Lord – Wisho
  • The Withdrawal Wizard – Vauhdikas
  • The Gamification Guru – Arctic Casino
  • The Payout Professor – Wolfy Casino
  • The Noisy Newcomer – Lunar Spins

This was the third time Slotsoo held the casino awards for its English-language site targeting the EU market in general. During the same period, the dedicated awards for the Finnish market, Slotsoo Kasinogaala 2025, celebrated its second year. These awards consist of seven trophies equivalent to the English ones, plus an eighth trophy dedicated to the casino operator with the best slot streaming offering.

The Nordic country is undergoing big changes, with a new gambling legislation and a licensing system planned to be introduced by 1 January 2027. The future will tell how this will affect the structure and categories of the awards.
