What makes Turbo Games’ provably fair games so special?
A partnership between game developer Turbo Games and iGaming solution provider and aggregator Slotegrator began in November 2022 via the APIgrator game integration solution. Since then, the collaboration has been developing successfully — and now it’s time to analyze what made it successful.
Turbo Games has noticed how the new technologies spreading throughout the industry can work for the good of brand transparency and player loyalty: “We can already see how blockchain technology has made it possible to make betting checks more accessible to players. All you need is a blockchain-hash and a decoder service. We think we will continue to move in this direction. Many traditional online casinos do not offer the possibility to check the bet. Sooner or later we all have to come to this. Perhaps the development of artificial intelligence will help here, because we are already seeing its involvement in all spheres of human life.”
Turbo Games specializes in provably fair games. Provable fairness is a concept where players can verify their wins or losses using blockchain technology — the outcome of the game is dictated by a smart contract and is absolutely random, barring the possibility of any human involvement. Using cryptographic hashing algorithms, the gambling site and the player’s device both generate seeds (random strings of numbers). Players receive a key that allows them to check the results; if the results are the same as the game round they witnessed, it proves that there was no foul play.
According to statistics from Turbo Games, the audience for provably fair games is mostly between 18 and 25 years old. However, there are also players aged 35-40 who prefer traditional games but would like to try something new, and have turned their attention to provably fair games.
There are good odds that the technology of provably fair games will become more popular, if not even commonplace, because it gives players a feeling of transparency and proves that the business is trustworthy without the need to search through dozens of reviews. Whereas many innovations in iGaming simply add entertainment, provable fairness addresses security concerns and reassures players that they’re not being exploited, which is invaluable.
Provably fair games are beneficial for both players and online casinos. Vadim Potapenko, Head of Sales at Turbo Games, comments: “It often happens that the users are not satisfied with the result, because gambling is not only about big wins, but also possible losses. By allowing them to check the fairness of a bet, we make life easier for platforms and players. Of course, this allows us to communicate with partners and users that we work honestly and that’s why they should trust our games.”
Ayvar Gabidullin, Business Development Manager at Slotegrator, adds that “this type of game is now becoming more and more popular and has great potential for both players and game providers in the future. On the part of the player, the advantage is that the player can always be sure that his game is fair and he can independently check any of his bets. And for the game provider, this also simplifies the process of implementing casino games, since now it will not be necessary to obtain the appropriate certificates from independent laboratories before launching new games, they can immediately enter the market with these games and where anyone can check the result and make sure that that there is no cheating with players. Many game providers are starting to look towards this type of game. And as far as I see, many operators are starting to think about adding these games.”
What do players in 2023 need? The iGaming industry is all about reputation and trust. Players have a huge number of platforms to choose from, making them pickier and pickier. There’s an abundance of forums where players leave reviews, so if players view a brand as untrustworthy, there are plenty of places they can share their opinion. Provable fairness not only stops that from happening, it provides evidence to the contrary, giving players something else to talk about.
Slotegrator also recommends investing time and effort into localization and creating an effective and detailed marketing strategy — before trying provably fair technology players need to get to the platform, and there is no acquisition without marketing.

Overall, the main focus of the brand is provably fair games.

Liverpool Leads UK Sports Fans as Darts Surges with Luke Littler
New data from Flashscore highlights Liverpool as the most popular football club in the UK in 2025 while revealing darts as the fastest-growing sport among UK users.
The insights come from the annual Flashscore Yearbook, which analyzes billions of interactions across the platform’s app and website to identify trends in fan engagement, top teams, sports, events, and athletes.
Football Dominates, Liverpool on Top
Football remained the UK’s favorite sport, registering 5.9 billion views on Flashscore throughout 2025. Within the league, Liverpool emerged as the most-viewed team, accumulating over 5.3 million views, ahead of Manchester United (4.5M), Arsenal (4.3M), and Manchester City (3.2M).
Chelsea secured fifth place, while Newcastle United overtook Tottenham Hotspur, signaling a shift in fan attention and club momentum.
Notable match highlights include:
- Real Madrid vs Arsenal (Champions League) – 2.6M views
- Manchester United vs Burnley (Premier League) – 2.6M views, boosted by Bruno Fernandes’ stoppage-time winner
Darts Breaks Through with Luke Littler
Darts overtook tennis, golf, and basketball to become the UK’s second most popular sport, attracting nearly 275 million views across major tournaments.
- PDC World Championship led viewership, surpassing Premier League Darts.
- Luke Littler’s January victory over Michael van Gerwen drew 952,887 views, making it the year’s most-watched darts match.
The 19-year-old Littler emerged as the third most-viewed UK sportsperson, only behind football stars Harry Kane and Marcus Rashford, and the only non-footballer in the top 20, showcasing his role in raising darts’ profile.
Broadening Fan Interests
Charlie Ford, UK Country Manager at Flashscore, highlighted the evolving sports landscape: “The Yearbook shows that while football remains dominant, fans’ interests are expanding. Liverpool’s engagement demonstrates consistent fan loyalty, while Newcastle’s rise reflects shifting attention. Darts’ growth, fueled by Luke Littler, proves the impact a breakout star can have on a sport’s popularity.”
The data underscores a diverse fanbase increasingly engaged across multiple sports, from traditional football to rising stars in darts.
What This Means for UK Sports
- Liverpool Dominates Digital Engagement – Confirming their enduring popularity on and off the pitch.
- Newcastle’s Momentum – Smaller clubs can disrupt traditional hierarchies with key performances.
- Darts’ Growing Appeal – High-profile athletes like Littler attract younger, digitally engaged audiences.
- Fan-Centric Insights – Platforms like Flashscore reveal real-time shifts in sports popularity.
The full Flashscore Yearbook 2025 provides a detailed look at these trends, highlighting the evolving preferences of UK sports fans.

THE BATTLE OF POLYTOPIA CELEBRATES 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY, CONFIRMS NEW GAMEPLAY MODE AND FEATURES ON THE WAY
The Battle of Polytopia Marks 10 Years with New Gameplay Mode and Major Updates
The Battle of Polytopia is celebrating its 10-year anniversary in 2026, as developer Midjiwan confirms a brand-new gameplay mode, additional features, and even a physical card game are on the way.
Originally launched on February 26, 2016, the award-winning strategy title has evolved from a single-player mobile passion project into a globally recognized indie success story with more than 25 million organic downloads and millions of monthly game sessions.
From Indie Passion Project to Global Strategy Hit
Created by Felix Ekenstam, founder of Midjiwan, The Battle of Polytopia began as a mobile-first strategy game inspired by classic PC and console titles but redesigned for touchscreen accessibility.
At launch, the game featured:
- iOS-only availability
- Single-player mode
- One gameplay format
- Five playable tribes
Over the past decade, the game has expanded significantly, now offering:
- Multiple unique Tribes including Cymanti
- Local and online multiplayer
- Leaderboards and weekly challenges
- Multiple game modes such as Domination
- Tribe skins and customization
- Releases on Android, Steam, Epic Games Store, and Nintendo Switch
This evolution transformed Polytopia into what Midjiwan now calls a “forever game,” emphasizing replayability, competitive play, and community-driven design.
Award-Winning Growth and Community Power
Over the last decade, Polytopia has earned industry recognition, including:
- Best Indie Developer at the Pocket Gamer Mobile Game Awards (2024)
- Best Community at the Gaming On Phone Awards (2025)
The game boasts:
- 270,000+ active fans
- 50,000+ Discord members
- 60,000+ Reddit members
The most popular tribes among players include Elyrion, Vengir, Cymanti, Kickoo, and Hoodrick, reflecting the strategic diversity that keeps the meta evolving.
From September to December 2025, Midjiwan hosted the Polytopia World Championships, a global esports event with a $10,000 prize pool and more than 10,000 participants — reinforcing the game’s competitive credibility.
10th Anniversary Celebrations Begin
To mark the milestone, Midjiwan has launched:
- A signed limited-edition 10-Year Anniversary poster via its official store
- The New Dawn Cymanti Skin on Nintendo Switch (already available on mobile)
The celebrations will continue throughout 2026, culminating in the reveal and launch of:
- A brand-new gameplay mode
- Additional in-game features
- A physical Polytopia card game
While details remain under wraps, the announcement signals continued innovation and franchise expansion beyond digital platforms.
Sustained Engagement and Replayability
Polytopia now sees:
- Millions of sessions played monthly
- Average player session times exceeding 5 hours
The game’s long-term success is widely attributed to its player-first philosophy — prioritizing creativity and community over aggressive monetization strategies.
According to studio leadership, the focus remains on quality gameplay, strategic depth, and meaningful community interaction.
Why Polytopia’s 10-Year Milestone Matters
In the mobile gaming industry — where lifecycle turnover is often rapid — sustaining a decade of organic growth is rare. Polytopia’s journey highlights several important trends:
- Mobile-First Strategy Works – Deep strategy games can thrive on mobile platforms.
- Community Drives Longevity – Strong Discord and Reddit ecosystems sustain engagement.
- Indie Studios Can Scale Globally – Award recognition and esports tournaments validate long-term viability.
- Platform Expansion Fuels Growth – Moving beyond iOS accelerated adoption and competitive legitimacy.
As Midjiwan prepares to reveal its new gameplay mode later this year, Polytopia enters its second decade positioned as one of the most resilient and community-driven mobile strategy franchises.
