HGreetings, Izabela! It’s a pleasure to have you join us for Realgambling’s Q&A. We appreciate you taking the time to engage with us.
Could you please provide our readers with a brief introduction, sharing your journey within the iGaming sector and explaining your responsibilities at the company?
I’m grateful to be here! My career at Wazdan Wazdan began eight years ago when I started as an Account Manager. I have since advanced to Senior Account Manager and have recently achieved the role of Head of Account Management for North America and Latin America.
I truly enjoy every facet of my position, which offers me fulfilling opportunities for personal and professional growth in a vibrant environment that produces some of the top games available.
Can you give our readers a brief overview of Wazdan?
Wazdan is a globally recognized manufacturer of slot games that merges advanced technology with captivating experiences. Founded in 2010 by a group of gaming enthusiasts, we focus on consistent innovation and creating content that differentiates itself in the gaming market.
Currently, we have an expansive portfolio with over 150 HTML5 games, including unique customizable features such as adjustable Volatility Levels™, empowering players to tailor their gameplay experience according to their personal preferences.
In the past few months, we have received numerous accolades, including the Best Online Casino Provider award at the CEEG Awards, a silver award at the SBC North America for Rising Star in Casino, and two awards at the Baltic and Scandinavian Gaming Awards for Best Slots Provider in the Baltics and Rising Star in Nordic Online Casino Technology. Additionally, we've been nominated for several more honors.
What is Wazdan’s vision, and how is it to work in this environment?
As I mentioned, our company was founded more than ten years ago by a team of slot aficionados, and we are devoted to progressing the iGaming landscape. Each day here brings new experiences, and I wouldn’t change a thing about it.
We center the player in all our initiatives, which helps us remain at the forefront of innovation by regularly delivering games with fresh features, extraordinary visuals, and creative narratives.
Could you elaborate on how Wazdan has adjusted to recent trends and shifts in the gaming industry?
We pride ourselves on being trendsetters within the iGaming realm, consistently monitoring new trends and technologies to foresee future challenges for prominent providers.
Predicting audience reception to new products or features is challenging, yet by providing players and operators with control through our Freedom of Choice™ suite—featuring mechanics like Buy Feature, Cash Drop, and Volatility Levels™—we minimize risks of failure.
Tell us about one of your most recent titles—Sizzling Kingdom™: Bison. How does the Collect to Infinity™ feature enhance the player experience?
Sizzling Kingdom™: Bison exemplifies how a game can effectively engage players and create an immersive experience through innovative features.
With beloved Hold the Jackpot and Free Spins features included, players can enjoy exhilarating winning moments, especially when utilizing the new engagement-enhancing feature, Collect to Infinity™.
Are there any additional new features we should be aware of?
We are returning to our acclaimed Hot Slot™ series with an exciting new addition, Hot Slot™: Magic Bombs, which has captured players' interest since its release thanks to its dynamic and lively gameplay, incorporating two groundbreaking features—Collect to Infinity™ and the all-new Sticky to Infinity™—that deeply engage players in the thrilling action.
This marks our first entry featuring the innovative Sticky to Infinity™ mechanic, enabling players to attach Jackpot Mystery symbols to the reels for the entirety of the Free Spins bonus round, providing them with opportunities for significant wins and jackpots. This feature is designed to enhance player engagement and maximize our partners’ profitability.
This launch represents the second addition to the Hot Slot™ series following the global debut of Hot Slot™: 777 Crown. We are excited to soon introduce Hot Slot™: Mystery Jackpot Joker in December as well.
In your opinion, what title has been the most successful so far, and what are the reasons for this?
The original 9 Coins™ slot, which has evolved into a series, quickly became one of the favorites in our lineup due to the revolutionary Cash Infinity™ mechanic, known for enhancing player engagement, experience, and boosting retention rates.
Building on the success of the original, the 9 Coins™: 1000 Edition and 9 Coins™: Grand Gold Edition slots introduce an enhanced Grand Jackpot within the Hold the Jackpot bonus round. Both games take advantage of the Cash Infinity™ feature, allowing our partners to optimize their outcomes.
Which of your titles do you personally enjoy the most?
My favorite Wazdan slot has to be 9 Lions, as its oriental theme combined with exciting bonus rounds checks all the boxes for what I seek in a slot. However, I must admit that Sizzling Kingdom™: Bison has recently captivated me, as it offers everything we are known for—breathtaking visuals, unique animations, and a wealth of bonus features that introduce thrilling unpredictability. Wazdan slots Do you anticipate any significant transformations within the iGaming industry? Could these changes potentially impact the trajectory of Wazdan?
As a highly regarded game provider, we view innovation as a response to the rapidly changing requirements of players for customizable gaming experiences, offering diverse new winning methods. Wazdan has consistently embraced this philosophy since our inception, with Freedom of Choice™ being one of our foundational principles.
The customizable features we create enable the development of adaptable player experiences and provide suppliers the chance to distinguish themselves from their competitors. We've noticed businesses beginning to integrate AI-driven technology, VR, and blockchain to gain a competitive edge, but since many of these technologies are still emerging, it remains uncertain how effectively they can reach broader audiences globally.
Nevertheless, our priority is to leverage and upgrade technologies that have proven successful for both our players and our operational partners.
Thank you for this enlightening interview! It’s been a pleasure. Is there anything else you'd like to mention before we conclude?
Wazdan’s games consistently perform exceptionally in key markets, and we are eager to bring exciting titles to our partners in regulated areas, making it logical for us to establish our strong portfolio in Ontario, where we are becoming a leading player.
We invite all Canadian players who have access to our slots to experience firsthand the freedom our games offer and encourage any businesses in Ontario interested in partnering with us to reach out for collaboration opportunities.
