New challenger approaching: Introducing Slotsoo Casino Awards
The iGaming industry’s awards season is in full swing. Today (1st June 2023), Slotsoo is jumping on the train by launching Slotsoo Casino Awards. With this new venture, the casino comparison site wants to celebrate excellence among casino operators in a fun way, with the goal to inspire the casino industry to do better.
Fun Categories that are Relevant to Players
The Slotsoo Casino Awards consist of seven different trophies with humorous names such as The Bonus Buff and The Withdrawal Wizard. The team has made an intentional decision to keep the number low and the categories focused on the player experience.
Markus Björk, Slotsoo’s head writer and team leader, explains:
”Slotsoo wants to be the perfect mix of serious and fun – we are allergic to boring. When deciding on the different categories we made sure they resonate to players and not just media or higher-ups. We also wanted to avoid having too many trophies, because then they would lose their point. If everyone is a winner, then nobody is a winner.”
He continues to tell that every team member likes to play slots too, so they know what the average player values and what they don’t.
The Winners for Slotsoo Awards 2023
· The Gambling GOAT – Svenbet Casino
· The Bonus Buff – Slot Paradise
· The Loyalty Lord – Qbet Casino
· The Withdrawal Wizard – iBet Casino
· The Gamification Guru – Happy Hugo
· The Payout Professor – Snatch Casino
· The Noisy Newcomer – Monsino
Please visit Slotsoo Casino Awards for descriptions of the trophies and detailed winner motivations.
All casinos listed on Slotsoo are automatically nominated. Instead of using an external jury to select the winners, the decision is done by the team itself – meaning the same people that actually test and review every site.
Big Plans for Expansion
The dust has barely settled from the launch of the new awards, but the Slotsoo team already have big aspirations how to expand the concept. Markus Björk shares their plans for the future:
”We want to do similar awards on our other language versions. Simultaneously, we are looking to introduce separate awards for game providers. After all, they are the backbone of the casinos, and they deserve just as much celebration.”
Who is Slotsoo?
Slotsoo is a multilingual comparison site for online casinos and slots run by a tight-knit group of slot enthusiasts. The website was launched in 2017 and offers expert reviews of casinos, slots and game providers – plus guides for different payment methods and license authorities.
The English version targets the European market as a whole, while the other languages are focusing on specific countries. Slotsoo is committed to only promote legal and licensed casinos that respect EU laws. Want to know more? Check out the page about Slotsoo or contact the team at [email protected]

Groove says its aggregator library passes 20,000 casino games
Groove says it has surpassed 20,000 casino titles on its aggregation platform, up from 15,000 games two years ago. The company said the library now includes content from more than 150 providers and is available to partners worldwide through a single API.
According to Groove, the portfolio spans slots, instant wins, table games, crash games, live dealer and arcade-style content, alongside “emerging verticals including sweepstakes and crypto-native content.” The company said the catalogue is delivered through “one API, one back office, one pipeline,” and positioned the milestone as a curated expansion rather than a volume play.
Rachel Tourgeman, Head of Partnerships at Groove, said: “Twenty thousand games is a number. What matters is what sits behind it…” She added: “We don’t add studios for the sake of volume. We add them because they bring something distinctive: a mechanical innovation, a visual language, a player-engagement hook that our operators can’t get elsewhere. Our partners trust us to curate, not just collect. That trust is why we keep growing, and why the quality curve keeps rising alongside the quantity curve.”
Groove pointed to recent integrations including KingMidas Games (150+ mobile-first titles), Urgent Games and Bryogames, which it said offers “proprietary mathematics with real-time RTP customisation.” For operators, Groove said the full library is accessible via Groove Command, its centralised back-office product, with tools including content matching, regional segmentation and automated tournaments.
Yahale Meltzer, Co-Founder and CEO of Groove, said: “The aggregation space is crowded with platforms that offer ‘access’ and little else,” adding: “Twenty thousand games through a single API is not just scale. It is a statement.” Meltzer also claimed Groove’s “technology stack with predictive auto-scaling, atomic transactions, real-time compliance mesh” supports execution “across fragmented regulatory landscapes with precision.”

Mega Casino has launched 10 Hot Diamond Desire, a new online slot developed by Bragg Gaming, as an exclusive title available only to Mega Casino players.

“Exclusive content remains a key pillar of our strategy and 10 Hot Diamond Desire is a great example of the kind of launch we want to bring to Mega Casino players.

OS Studios names Ishaan Arya country manager to lead India expansion
OS Studios has appointed Ishaan Arya as Country Manager for India, tasking him with leading the agency’s expansion across newly established hubs in Bengaluru, New Delhi, and Mumbai. The appointment was announced on 25 June, 2026 in Bengaluru.
OS Studios, a Project Worldwide agency, said it recently entered the Indian market and will deploy its ‘Fan Z’ approach for brands looking to engage with gaming, esports and live events audiences in South Asia. The company said the expansion will leverage the infrastructure and production capabilities of sister agency George P. Johnson (GPJ) India.
“The future of gaming will be shaped by the communities that care about it most, and few markets embody that more than India,” said John Higgins, CEO of OS Studios. “To build something meaningful, you have to be part of the culture, not looking in from the outside. Ishaan understands that better than anyone. He’s exactly the kind of leader we want building the future of OS Studios in India.”
In the role, Arya will oversee operations, drive strategic brand partnerships, and scale local capabilities, according to the company. “Brands are investing heavily in Indian gaming, but true fan experience is too often an afterthought,” said Rasheed Sait, Chief Growth Officer for India and South Asia at Project Worldwide. “Alongside GPJ India’s experiential footprint, OS Studios will set a new standard for fan engagement in the region.”
Arya previously co-founded The Esports Club and most recently served as Vice President of Partnerships at Nodwin Gaming, where he led Comic Con India. “A massive gap remains between brand intent and authentic community engagement in India,” said Arya. “I’m thrilled to leverage Project Worldwide and GPJ India’s operational strength to build culture-defining experiences for brands and fans alike.”
