Pragmatic Play Review

Pragmatic Play is one of the most successful global providers in the iGaming industry. They have a vast portfolio of online slots, live casino games, bingo, virtual sports and more. The company has been in business since 2015 and is committed to innovation, offering a high-quality gaming experience across multiple platforms, currencies and regulated markets.

The company’s video slots feature distinctive themes and eye-catching graphics that set them apart from the competition. They also use HTML5 technology which means they are fully optimised for mobile devices. Pragmatic Play has an impressive portfolio of table games as well, with variations on popular casino classics like live blackjack, roulette and baccarat. The company’s game show games are particularly interesting, providing players with a realistic and interactive gaming experience, complete with live hosts and bonus rounds.

In 2020 Pragmatic Play started receiving criticism for what some players perceived as wildly exaggerated advertised potential, with some games claiming maximum wins of up to 180,000 times the bet size. In 2021 Bigwinboard publicly criticised the company for using controversial streamer Roshtein in a Facebook promo for their new games, and the company continued to face heavy criticism from the community for its apparent close ties to fake money streamers.

The Paradise Papers leak of offshore companies structures in 2017 revealed that Yair Hamami, a former TopGame executive and associate of Barzilay, is listed as a shareholder of Pragmatic Play, along with a number of other names that appear to be connected to various rogue casinos. Pragmatic Play has also signed distribution agreements with a number of rogue casinos that operate under the names Engage Entertainment Group and Celicorp Limited, and their games are now available at many unlicensed multi-provider casinos.
