Play N Go Software
Today, the name Play’n GO is synonymous with quality pokies and other online casino games. But this respected studio, offering mobile-focused slots in 11 different languages, came from small beginnings. It all changed for the brand when a team of ambitious developers deciding that they could offer the industry more if they risked it all and took a shot at the industry themselves.
The original Play’n GO studio was first founded in 1997, with offices located in Vaxjo, Sweden. But for 7 years the fledgling company existed under the umbrella of bigger studios, acting as consultants for other company’s operations. Then, in 2004 the talented group had a realisation; they could offer better content, and better services if not shackled to bigger corporations. So, the Play’n GO of today was born.
