History

Hacksaw Gaming launched at the end of 2018 and initially focused on creating themed scratchcards. It quickly established a name for itself as its instant win games offered generous prizes. After the initial success of Hacksaw Gaming’s scratchcards, the Malta-based provider started releasing slots. It immediately struck gold in 2019 with its Stick ‘Em, starring Canny the Can. The slot proved such a hit that Hacksaw released sequels Stack ‘Em, Keep ‘Em, and Drop ‘Em.

In 2018, Hacksaw Gaming acquired an MGA license and then, in 2019, entered the UK market after attaining a coveted UKGC license. Hacksaw continues to expand across Europe, and you can find their games in Greece and Sweden.

Popular Games

These are some of the most popular Hacksaw Gaming games:

• Stick ‘Em
• Jelly Slice
• Le Bandit
• Fist of Destruction
• Bouncy Bombs
• Wanted Dead or a Wild

Stick ‘Em was Hacksaw Gaming’s very first slot. This game takes you out to an expansive field where Canny the Can helps you collect classic symbols like diamonds and dice. The game has an impressive 1,024 ways to win and the sticky win feature where you get a respin, which resets every time a new sticky thumb symbol lands. This is Hacksaw’s version of Hold and Win and offers wins up to 2,048x.

Join a naughty raccoon in Le Bandit and go on a crime spree. This noir-themed slot features everything from cascading reels to free spins. Also, keep your eyes out for the coin symbols that offer instant wins up to 500x.

Jelly Slice is Hacksaw Gaming’s bright and delicious candy-themed online slot. The game takes you inside a jelly factory where yummy treats shoot out of the machine and offer prizes of up to 10,000x. Jelly Slice uses the innovative slicer mechanic where symbols are chopped up into four pieces, causing the number of paylines to skyrocket!

Innovations and Awards

It didn’t take long for Hacksaw Gaming to start receiving praise from the industry. In 2019, Hacksaw Gaming took home the Best Rising Star in Gaming prize at the MiGEA Awards. The accolades kept flooding, and in 2023, the Maltese scooped two prizes at the Kongebonus Awards 2023, including Best Game Developer and Best Sequel Slot.

It is no accident that Hacksaw Gaming keeps winning so many awards. Instead of copying rival’s games, this provider genuinely creates unique slot machines, and there are very few companies out there that rival Hacksaw’s mobile gaming experience.
