First Look Games Launches FLG Analytics – The First Marketing Intelligence Platform Built for iGaming Studios

Published

First Look Games (FLG), the data-driven iGaming marketing intelligence platform connecting game studios and affiliate publishers, has launched FLG Analytics: a comprehensive marketing intelligence suite giving game studios unprecedented visibility into how their titles are represented, reviewed and ranked across the iGaming affiliate market.

Game studios invest heavily in developing and launching titles, yet have historically had limited insight into how those games are marketed by the affiliate websites that drive a significant proportion of new depositing customers for operators.

FLG Analytics addresses this blind spot across five core modules:

  • Website Directory – A searchable database of 1,000+ vetted iGaming affiliate publishers, filterable by country, traffic, SEO performance and keyword relevance, enabling studios to build targeted outreach strategies.
  • Studio Benchmarking – Live competitive benchmarking across share of voice, player reach, review volume and AI-powered sentiment analysis, covering over 740 indexed studios.
  • Game Benchmarking – Title-level performance tracking against competitor releases, including review coverage, publisher performance and affiliate engagement.
  • Content Monitor – Real-time tracking of all content published about a studio’s games across the FLG publisher network, with filtering by site, game, geography and date.
  • Instant Messaging – A built-in channel for studios to contact verified affiliate publishers directly to establish commercial and marketing partnerships, replacing fragmented email and LinkedIn exchanges with a single, purposeful interface.

These new product features have been developed as a result of game studio client and publisher user feedback as First Look Games seeks to continue to deliver value to its partners as it scales its pathfinder technology platform.

Tom Galanis, CEO of TAG Media and First Look Games, commented: “Game studios spend significant resources developing world-class games, but have historically had almost no visibility into how those games are truly presented to players by the affiliate community. FLG Analytics changes that. For the first time, studios can identify the best affiliate partners, target specific markets, benchmark against competitors and track content in real time – all from one platform. We’ve built the studio-affiliate marketing intelligence layer that the iGaming industry has been sorely missing.”

The platform now serves 1,000+ vetted publishers reaching more than 50 million casino players worldwide. The business case for better affiliate intelligence is stark: affiliates drive between 19 and 95 percent of new depositing customers for operators depending on the market. In the UK alone – where affiliate influence is at its lowest from a percentage perspective – the slots market generates an estimated £798m annually through affiliate activity, translating to an average of £57k per slot game and in excess of £300k for top-performing titles.

Galanis added: “Despite this, there has never been a structured way for studios to understand, evaluate and engage with affiliate publishers at scale. FLG Analytics provides that structure. Our ultimate mission is to demonstrate just how valuable individual publishers are to a game studio’s revenue performance – at a game level and in total.”

FLG Analytics is available now.

QTech Games, the leading game aggregator for emerging markets, has strengthened its content pipeline with the addition of Tap-A-Roo, one of the latest studios from global iGaming powerhouse Evolution.

Tap-A-Roo was created to redefine how players interact with casino games, moving away from traditional spinning reels and complex animations. Instead, it introduces an intuitive tap-based format, allowing players to engage instantly with gameplay. No reels, no waiting—just fast, tap-and-play action that maximizes engagement.

This innovative approach is particularly suited to developing markets, where low-end devices or network limitations can hinder gameplay. By reducing downtime and streamlining animations, Tap-A-Roo delivers rapid, attention-grabbing experiences that elevate standard RNG slot play.

Key Benefits of Tap-A-Roo:

  • Instant Play & High-Octane Engagement – immediate, tap-based gameplay keeps players engaged.
  • Remixed Classics & Fresh Titles – Evolution’s popular IPs reimagined for mobile-first audiences.
  • Global Appeal – games optimized for emerging markets worldwide.

Tap-A-Roo combines mobile-optimized slots, engaging narratives, and tailored maths models across the volatility spectrum to create highly engaging gameplay. Its titles leverage QTech Games’ fully owned and customized platform, ensuring operators benefit from fast integration, reliable performance, and localized support across both developing and mature markets.

The partnership significantly expands Tap-A-Roo’s global footprint, opening new jurisdictions across Asia, Africa, Eastern Europe, and Latin America, while diversifying growth opportunities for both QTech and its operator partners.

“Tap-A-Roo’s blend of simplicity and dynamism is resonating strongly with players in emerging markets,” said Philip Doftvik, CEO of QTech Games.
“In mobile-first regions, where instant-gratification gameplay is key, Tap-A-Roo has carved a popular niche with its no-wait mechanics, while preserving the trusted randomness and rewards of Evolution slots. This partnership strengthens our sequential pipeline for 2026 and reinforces QTech’s position as the leading aggregator for emerging markets.”

Ed Gomez, Key Account Manager at Tap-A-Roo, added:
“Our tap-based format delivers slot-style excitement without traditional spins, making games lighter, faster, and better suited to regions with device or network limitations. QTech Games enables us to reach even more players across emerging markets, particularly in Africa and Latin America, while expanding distribution to top-tier operators globally.”

The collaboration marks a strategic step in both companies’ growth, bringing fast, mobile-first, and highly engaging gameplay to new audiences worldwide.
