  Black Pudding Games

  Norwich, Norfolk, United Kingdom

  Black Pudding Games is a privately held online casino game developer founded in 2018 and headquartered in Norwich, Norfolk, United Kingdom. The studio was conceived by three industry veterans with a combined 30+ years of experience who sought to break away from conventional slot game tropes and create “the content of tomorrow.” Operating as a small boutique studio with 2–10 employees, the company focuses on producing certified slot games that are distributed through the leading aggregation platform 1X2 Network, giving operators access to their content without requiring a proprietary remote game server. Black Pudding Games emphasises originality, bespoke projects, and IP licensing, and also offers online gaming consultancy services. Although the specific titles in its game portfolio have not been widely publicised, the studio positions itself as an agile, quality-focused developer in the crowded iGaming supply landscape. Its tagline “It’s in the blood” reflects a deep-rooted commitment to the craft, and the company remains a credible though relatively low‑profile player in the sector.

  BitPunch

  Barcelona, Spain

  BitPunch is a Barcelona-based online slot studio that launched in 2024 as part of Yggdrasil’s YGG Masters programme, a collaborative initiative that grants independent developers access to Yggdrasil’s distribution network and regulatory licenses. Operating under the Spinart umbrella—the same group that fostered Peter & Sons—BitPunch aims to produce visually polished and mechanically inventive slot games for regulated markets. The studio is still in its earliest stages, with no publicly listed website, named executives, or confirmed game titles. Its presence on Yggdrasil’s partner page and listings on aggregator sites like iGamingSuppliers.com and AboutSlots.com suggests a B2B-only business model, delivering content to operators through Yggdrasil’s platform. Despite the scarcity of public information, BitPunch’s inclusion in the YGG Masters programme signals a commitment to quality and rapid release cycles, with plans for monthly launches across diverse themes. As of early 2025, the company remains largely opaque, and its long-term trajectory hinges on the reception of its upcoming games.

  BJSIM

  Los Angeles, California, USA

  BJSIM is a niche online casino software supplier specializing in blackjack simulation and strategy training. Established in 2004 and based in Los Angeles, California, the company operates the website bjsim.com, which offers a free-to-play multiplayer blackjack simulator. The platform allows users to practice blackjack strategy using realistic table rules, including blind bets, trips bets, and side bets with set payout tables. BJSIM is primarily a consumer-facing training tool rather than a full-scale iGaming platform, and its presence in the industry is minimal, with no evidence of licensing, partnerships, or commercial distribution beyond the single website. The company appears to be a micro-business or personal project, likely run by a single developer, with no corporate filings, employee listings, or public funding. Its domain remains online but has shown no updates or expansion in years, placing it as a niche free-to-play resource for blackjack enthusiasts rather than a B2B supplier.

Founded in 1995 by Anthony Singer and Susan Stein, the company has grown from a small studio into a global operation with a portfolio of over 500 slot titles played across six continents and in more than 150 countries. H5G operates through a dual business model: a B2B offering that licenses its Remote Game Server (RGS) platform to operators such as DraftKings and Golden Nugget, and a direct B2C social casino via the High 5 Casino app, which features more than 1,500 slots and claims over 33 million registered players.
