In the first quarter of 2021, NSoft’s business operations marked growth in all the key areas despite the global COVID-19 pandemic and lockdowns.

By Dražan Planinić, NSoft COO

Our overall business turnover grew by 13% compared to Q1 2020, with online being the stronghold of the business with 59% growth in Q1 2021. There was an exceptional growth on our Sportsbook software – the online traffic doubled compared to the same quarter last year.

The best performing product in the total number of tickets was Live Sports Betting solution on online/mobile on every market, with a turnover increase of 75% in Q1 2021 compared to Q1 2020.

The teamwork and commitment of all of us are showing their strength. We have always been known for a strong sense of community within the company and strong ties to the customers. We see them as our long-term partners with whom we thrive together.

In the long run, our primary focus is a further development of the betting game portfolio and new features of the existing betting solutions, entering new markets, and quality over quantity.

Where software meets hardware

The biggest hit that marked Q1 2021 is the finalisation of the merging process of STARK Solution to NSoft. Internally, this change straightens our position in terms of the workforce as well as financially as it adds another stream of revenue – and it’s a quite valuable one. A manufacturer of premium betting terminals, STARK added a high-quality hardware component to our diversified betting and gaming software development business for the betting and gaming industry. This is the definition of being an omnichannel supplier!

Despite the lock-down, the new normal, pandemic, land-based business will thrive. Our pole position gives our partners and us tremendous flexibility in planning and business dynamics. NSoft-STARK synergy has generated great deals in the first three months of 2021. Despite the numerous problems caused by the pandemic: restrictions on travel and transport, closing of retail shops, we managed to deliver our terminals to Poland, Croatia, Belgium, Germany, Romania, Serbia, Montenegro among others.

New strongholds, new customers

A few crucial projects were running simultaneously in Q1 2021 although there are still travel restrictions caused by the lockdown.

The first quarter marked the entering into four new markets and acquisition of 14 new clients from France, Central African Republic, Dominican Republic, Turkey, and few others. Word of mouth is strong even without physical presence, trade shows, and very limited travelling options. This shows our strength and the power of our brand.

We’re at the forefront of new markets and at the same time strengthening our presence and working on new projects in the traditionally strong CEE market.

Tech improvements, new offering and features

Q1 2021 was very hectic when we talked about new products and new features. We have updated our internal processes from the tech side and introduce even more strict security rules and policies. This activity is part of our regular work in this field. We regularly perform stress tests as we understand the importance of this business aspect and the impact not just on us but also on our clients.

Lightning games

In Q1 2021, the Lightning games have seen the light of the day. This addition to the portfolio was a logical step in the overall strategy dedicated to enhance online channel offering.

They were developed to provide online players with a better user experience and give our partners the flexibility to place them into virtual or casino categories. The possibility of putting them in both categories: virtual games and casino games is something which our partners highly praised.

Lightning Lucky Six and Lightning Roulette are faster and simplified versions of our popular games, which have been on the throne of our product offer for a long time thanks to great user experience and wide acceptance of the products.

Lottery

NSoft Lottery is also a novelty in our product range. With this product, we wanted to satisfy players who like to bet on real lottery draws worldwide. So, we have a full solution based on Betradar’s Unified Odds Feed on over 6,500 events per week from over 30 countries.

NSoft Slots – the all-new exciting world of games

We are incredibly proud of the fact that we have mapped the road for entering the world of slots. NSoft Casino is a novelty that we want to present for the first time to our partners, who have so far only been able to integrate various casino games on our platform. Now, we can boast with our in-house slot games that will be on the market soon, but we’ll talk more about that in the Q2 of 2021.

Boosted NSoft Sportsbook Platform

We have raised the Sportsbook Platform to a new level on all channels with new functionalities, and we continue with the Cash Out feature. Cash Out is a must-have, and the existing clients have already upgraded the Sportsbook to a new UX version that includes it.

In retail, we are still one step ahead of our competition and have brought our retail solution to perfection. We’re following the same steps to reach the same level on all other delivery channels. With remote device manager, we are offering a sportsbook software solution for land-based operators like no other on the market.

NSoft Vision

Our AI boosted video management system for surveillance and business analytics is not a rising star any more. It is a mature product, market-ready with a small but steadily growing client base and a strong reseller and partner base. New features, new experts working daily on improvements and expansion to the European market made a lot of buzz around NSoft Vision.

Q1 result predicts a very successful year

Even after the first quarter, we can recognise the global direction results we are aiming for. We are investing in cooperations with other platform providers such as Playtech, iSoftBet, EveryMatrix, Blue Ocean Gaming, Oryx and many others.

The business growth and the team morale keep us going. We are finishing a new round of the onboard process for our new 20 colleagues with 13 more to join our team in the following days. New people always bring new ideas and energy, so we are looking forward to an exciting summer with EURO 2020. New normal is different for anyone, and our is: keep up, go strong, do smart!

Hyper Gems — A New Cosmic Adrenaline Release from Dream Play

Dream Play continues to grow its lineup with Hyper Gems, a space-themed slot designed around speed, rising tension, and escalating multipliers.

Set within a deep cosmic environment of glowing nebulae and radiant crystal symbols, the game delivers a sharp, modern visual style. The bottom control panel reflects Dream Play’s signature polish — a centered spin button, sleek metallic controls, and a clean layout that keeps attention firmly on momentum and gameplay.

Fast Base Game, Reactive Multiplier

The base game moves at a rapid pace thanks to avalanche mechanics, where winning symbols disappear and new ones fall into place seamlessly.

Multipliers in the base game apply on a per-spin basis.
If a multiplier lands and connects with a win during that same spin, the payout is instantly boosted. Miss the connection, and it resets — keeping each spin dynamic and unpredictable.

The experience feels fast, immediate, and full of energy.

Bonus Game — Where the Adrenaline Builds

The pace shifts dramatically in the Bonus Game.

Once triggered — or activated through the Buy Bonus option — the atmosphere intensifies. The background changes, colors grow bolder, and symbol connections trigger subtle grid shake effects that add impact to every win.

The biggest change comes with the multiplier behavior.

In the bonus round, the multiplier no longer resets. Instead, it accumulates with every spin, even when no win lands. Tension builds as the value climbs spin after spin, until a winning cascade finally connects and the entire payout is multiplied by the full accumulated total.

Several quiet spins can stack significant potential, only for one sudden cascade to unleash it all at once. This is where Hyper Gems delivers its core rush.

Pop-Ups, Sound & Visual Identity

Hyper Gems features distinct Big Win, Epic Win, and Mega Win pop-ups, each with unique animations and visual styling. Transitions are smooth, modern, and fast, designed to maintain momentum rather than disrupt it.

Every win feels lively and visually rewarding.

The soundtrack reinforces the pace with a driving, space-inspired rhythm that rises alongside multiplier growth and intensifies during cascades.

Combined with strong visual effects and subtle grid movement in the bonus round, Hyper Gems delivers a cohesive, high-energy experience.

With its avalanche gameplay, accumulating bonus multiplier, and maximum win potential of x1000, Hyper Gems stands out as a release focused on escalation, tension, and momentum.

Dream Play expands its portfolio with Hyper Gems, a space-themed slot built around speed, tension, and multiplier escalation.

Set against a deep cosmic backdrop filled with glowing nebulae and vibrant crystal symbols, the game delivers a sharp, modern presentation.

The bottom control panel follows Dream Play’s polished design approach — centered spin button, smooth metallic controls, clean layout — keeping the focus entirely on action and momentum.

Fast Base Game, Reactive Multiplier

The base game moves quickly thanks to avalanche mechanics — winning symbols disappear and new ones cascade into place without breaking the flow.

Here, the multiplier works per spin.

If it lands and a winning combination connects in that same spin, the payout is instantly amplified. If not, it resets — keeping the gameplay reactive and dynamic.

It’s fast. Immediate. Energetic.

Bonus Game — Where Adrenaline Builds

The real shift happens in the Bonus Game.

Once triggered — or accessed via Buy Bonus — the atmosphere intensifies. The background changes, colors become more aggressive, and during symbol connections the grid adds a subtle shake effect, reinforcing the impact of every hit.

Most importantly, the multiplier no longer resets.

Instead, it accumulates with every spin — even if no win lands. The tension builds. Spin after spin, the number grows. And when a winning combination finally connects, the entire payout is multiplied by the full accumulated value.

Several spins can quietly stack the multiplier — and then one cascade suddenly lands, amplifying the entire win in a single surge.

That is where Hyper Gems delivers its core adrenaline.

Pop-Ups, Sound & Visual Identity

Hyper Gems features distinct Big, Epic and Mega Win pop-ups, each with its own animation style and visual identity. The transitions are dynamic, modern, and fast — designed to enhance momentum rather than interrupt it.

Every win feels energetic and visually impactful.

The soundtrack supports the pace with a driving, space-inspired rhythm, rising alongside multiplier growth and intensifying during cascades.

Together with the visual effects and subtle grid shake in the bonus round, the game creates a cohesive, high-energy presentation.

With its avalanche engine, accumulating bonus multiplier and max win potential of x1000, Hyper Gems stands out as a release built around escalation and momentum.
