Realitme Gaming is another, very well known name among the software providers. It was established in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1998, and in 2008, a year after it was acquired by Hastings International, moved to Costa Rica. There was a small controversy over one of its games, Caribbean 21, when in 2004 a player won $1.3 million from a $1.000 deposit. The player was accused by RTG of cheating, but the final settlement’s details were never revealed. RTG decided to first lover the maximum bet size in the game, and finally removed it entirely.
RTG offers a large selection of casino, table and card games, that can be played both online and after downloading. Their portfolio includes over 100 games, including some of the richest progressives in the industry – Card Shark, Shopping Spree and It’s Good To Be Bad. RTG created also a unique selection of excellent video poker games, including over 20 game variants. Their most popular game series is “Real Series”, which are characterized by a random jackpot feature that can hit at any time.
The company gives its clients the possibility of customizing games, enabling them to choose how high or low the payout percentage are to be in particular games. They also leave the legal matters up to operators, what causes that they sometimes miss new laws introduced and are more likely to neglect current legislation (e.g. accept US-based players).
