Online slots backstory

Slot games refer to virtual games that simulate the experience of slot machines. Slot machines have been popular for over a century, but slot games only showed up in the 80s. It wasn’t until the last decade that thematic, mobile, and digital slot games took off.

The slot game development consists of three elements:

  • Art & Design – designing the game, art style, unique symbols, and themes

  • Game mechanics – level design, bonus prizes, and user-friendly interface

  • Slot Machine software development – logic, game engine, and platform-specific solutions

In this article, we will be going over the visual development process of our slot games.

Stage 1: Analyse this, analyse that

Before we start working on a slot game, it’s crucial to analyse the game’s audience and find and research an interesting theme. For example, if we’re creating a theme for the Romanian market, we would research Romanian culture and history.

People are fascinated by history, and especially ancient civilisations, which had peculiar lifestyles, customs, and beliefs. Slot games with allusions to historical eras, people, and cultures easily capture people’s interest. Ancient Egypt and Pirates are very good examples of that. The same goes for themes centred around magic and spells or mythological creatures like fairies and mermaids. Historical and mythological themes for the slots also appeal to our creative team. They get our creative juices flowing, and we all know that THE CREATIVITY MUST FLOW.

We go into every project well prepared with all the tools we might need. Our creative team consists of 3D artists, animators, concept artists, and illustrators. The most common programs used by our team include Adobe Photoshop, Adobe AE, Substance painter, 3DS Max, and Maya.

Stage 2: Concept art

When we have found the ideal theme, our creative team must identify the overall artistic mood of the game. It can be realistic, stylised, or a combination of both. After that, our artists create concept art in different variations, as well as a mood board with several images that sets the tone and environment for the art.

Stage 3: Creation of 3D assets

The next stage is the creation of 3D assets based on the technical specifications of our slot game engine and approved designs and sketches.

Stage 4: Animations and VFX

The animation may apply to the reels and symbols, but it can also be used in the background for spin results, promotional videos, characters and other features. It’s usually a combination of 2D & 3D animations and VFX. This allows us to breathe life and additional appeal into the final product.

Stage 5: Final render

After finishing all the elements and assets, it’s time for the final rendering of a complete slot game. The game is then ready for the test in order to fix any errors and bugs that might hinder its functionality.

Guardians of the Forest is a mythical-themed slot featuring fairies.

Temple of Horus proudly represents Egyptian Mythology-themed slots.

Final words

Slot game design evolved so much over the last couple of decades and will continue to do so in the future. Our goal is to do the same, so expect even more exciting and innovative slot games from us. Stay tuned! This is only the beginning.

5 Reasons Mobile iGaming is Growing (and How to Earn from It)

Published

on

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Mobile iGaming isn’t a trend anymore—it’s the new default. With 96% of the world’s digital population accessing the internet via smartphones, operators can no longer treat mobile as a “nice to have.” On Atlaslive, most players already come through mobile, showing just how deep this shift has gone. So they have investigated the reasons for it.

5 reasons are driving the rise of mobile play:

  1. Smartphones & 5G: Affordable devices and low-latency connections make betting and live casino seamless.
  2. Mobile-first UX: Fingerprint login, in-game wallets, and scrollable lobbies remove friction.
  3. New market regulations: Markets like Brazil are now opening to licensed apps, unlocking millions of players.
  4. Frictionless payments: From Apple Pay to Brazil’s Biometric Pix, fast deposits are now a mobile-native feature.
  5. User behavior shifts: Millennials and Gen Z expect short, impulsive, on-the-go sessions—and mobile delivers.

Mobile iGaming has clearly become the main arena for user activity and revenue growth. To find out more and see how operators can improve engagement and drive revenue with mobile strategies, read the full article.

From BetBrothers to BC Brothers: Scaling in Regulated Markets

Published

on

Reading Time: 3 minutes

A few months ago, we had the pleasure of speaking with Borja Imbergamo, BetBrothers’ Head of Growth & Strategy, about their ambitious mission to become a leading affiliate company in regulated sports betting markets.

Since then, the company has rebranded as BC Brothers to reflect its multi-vertical vision, now overseeing both BetBrothers (sports betting) and CasinoBros (online casinos). We sat down with Borja again to discuss the strategy behind this move, the company’s growth, and its commitment to shaping a more transparent iGaming landscape.

 

BetBrothers has recently rebranded as BC Brothers. What was the thinking behind this move, and what does it mean for your strategy going forward?

The rebrand was a natural step in our evolution. BetBrothers had strong traction in sports betting, but as we expanded into online casinos with CasinoBros, we wanted an identity that could unite both brands under one mission. BC Brothers allows each brand to maintain its own voice and focus, while benefiting from a shared growth strategy. It’s about clarity, transparency, and staying true to our mission of connecting players with safer bets across multiple verticals.

 

Every company faces the pressure of quarterly results versus a long-term vision. How does BC Brothers strike that balance?

Our approach is built on organic growth. High-quality organic traffic takes time and consistent effort – it’s not an overnight success. But it’s also the most sustainable path forward.

For instance, in markets like Spain and Greece, where we’re seeing strong traction, we naturally focus on optimizing that performance. We celebrate quarterly results because they validate our initial strategies and provide the resources to invest further. Simultaneously, we dedicate significant resources for new markets and ventures. These are critical investments in our multi-year vision.

We invest today to secure growth for years ahead. It’s about consistent, quality growth rather than quick, unsustainable wins

 

Which markets are currently your strongest, and what new ones are on your radar?

Currently, our primary focus markets, and where we’re already seeing really good traction, are Spain and Greece. These markets were chosen strategically for their established regulatory frameworks and significant potential. Our team has a strong understanding of the local player base and operator needs there. That is certainly paying off in terms of performance.

Looking ahead, while Spain and Greece remain key, we’re very excited about the potential in a number of other regulated markets. Our approach is always to go where we can genuinely add value to both operators and players. This leads us to focus on regions like Mexico, Peru, and Denmark, among others. Our strategy, much like in Spain and Greece, is based on delivering high-quality, compliant traffic. This is precisely where our expertise shines. The focus is always on where we can add real value. We don’t just want to be present – we want to be effective.

 

Beyond geography, are there specific product verticals you’re most excited about?

Sports betting was our foundation, but entering the casino vertical was always part of our roadmap. That’s why we launched CasinoBros, a dedicated platform for online casinos. The strategy and vision here are exactly the same as with BetBrothers. We aim to give players the best and deepest information, guiding them to safe, regulated online operators.

 

What does “deep information” mean in the casino space, and why is it important?

It means helping players understand everything. From game mechanics, RTP percentages, and volatility to responsible gaming tools and bonus terms. Our goal is to empower players to make informed decisions and enjoy entertainment responsibly, instead of just chasing promotions.

 

From an operator perspective, what makes CasinoBros stand out?

From an operator’s perspective, our value lies in bringing highly informed players. These players understand game mechanics, responsible play, and promotions. For operators, this translates into stronger retention and healthier long-term relationships. Educated players are less likely to feel frustrated and more likely to stay with operators they trust. Everyone benefits from that.

 

You’ve mentioned your goal of becoming a globally recognized and trusted brand. How are you working toward that?

Trust is the ultimate currency in iGaming. The rebrand to BC Brothers was a big step. We are uniting BetBrothers and CasinoBros under one strategy while keeping each brand focused. Now we’re rolling it out across all touchpoints and building our community on social media. These channels are crucial for transparency and direct engagement. It’s a long process, but one we’re fully committed to. Our mission remains clear: connecting players with safer bets, across verticals, in regulated markets.
