Our Take

Yggdrasil Gaming Ltd is based in Malta and holds a B2B Critical Supply Licence from the Malta Gaming Authority, while group companies hold supplier licences from the UK Gambling Commission, the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority, the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission, the Romanian ONJN and others. The studio lists more than four hundred and fifty offered games. Our catalogue covers thirty-one of them. Stored release years run from 2015 to 2019. The window is narrow.

Who Yggdrasil Gaming is

Yggdrasil Gaming is a slots supplier based in Malta. Its head office sits at Level 6, OPUS Penthouse, Triq Gort, San Ä iljan STJ 3063. The company also runs an office in KrakĂłw, Poland, and Fredrik Elmqvist is named as a founder.

The studio holds a stack of supplier licences. The Malta Gaming Authority licence carries the number MGA/B2B/230/2012, issued on 1 August 2018, and covers a B2B Critical Supply Licence under types one and three. In Great Britain the Gambling Commission licences appear in three forms. Yggdrasil Gaming Sweden holds a Gambling Software umbrella licence, while Yggdrasil Gaming Ltd. and Yggdrasil Gaming (Gibraltar) Ltd. each hold a Remote Casino Operating Licence on a B2B basis. Further supplier licences come from the Gibraltar Regulatory Authority, the Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission, the Hellenic Gambling Commission, the Belgian Gaming Commission and the National Gambling Office in Romania. The studio has been a member of the Swedish Gambling Association since 2020 and appears on the Buenos Aires City registry of manufacturers and suppliers.

Portfolio figures vary by source. Yggdrasil's own site lists more than 450 offered games, while a separate provider profile puts the catalogue at more than 260 titles with over 20 new releases a year and more than 20 partner studios working through YGG Masters. That same profile describes video slots as the primary vertical, with no live casino product, and infrastructure on AWS with documented uptime of 99.5 percent.

Testing runs through GLI, BMM and QUINEL.

Our own database tags 172 published casino reviews with this provider. The catalogue page covers every Yggdrasil title we have published, and the sections below work through what those games look like in practice.

What the Yggdrasil Gaming catalogue looks like here

Our catalogue holds thirty one Yggdrasil Gaming titles, published across five years. The earliest entries date to 2015 and the newest to 2019. Every one of those games carries a release year and a published return to player figure in our data. Thirty of them have a demo link attached, so you can open a reels set and spin it without staking money.

The split between game types is lopsided. Twenty nine titles are video slots and two are progressive slots, Holmes And The Stolen Stones and Ozwin's Jackpots. Volatility labels exist for most of the shelf, and the middle bands dominate the count.

Themes repeat in clusters. Fantasy leads, followed by magic and horror, with gold and cartoon art close behind. Adventure and ocean settings appear in several titles each, and sci-fi and space turns up in a smaller group. Wild symbols sit in nearly every game, free spins in most, and scatters in a large majority. Multipliers appear in a good number of titles, while bonus rounds are less common.

Two gaps in our data are worth knowing about before you read the table. Some entries list no volatility label at all, and a handful carry no max win figure. The table shows a dash where our record is empty. Those blanks come from the source data we hold, and they do not mean the game lacks the feature.

If you want the wider picture, our All slot software providers page lists the other studios we cover alongside this one.

RTP across Yggdrasil Gaming games

Return to player is the share of total stakes a game pays back over millions of spins. A figure in the mid nineties means the maths keeps a few units per hundred wagered across that long run. Individual sessions swing hard around that line, and no result is owed to you because a figure looks high.

RTP bandGames
Below 95%1
95% to 96%1
96% to 97%27
97% and above2

The spread in this catalogue runs from 94.3% to 97.7%, with a median just above the middle of that range. Most titles sit in the band just above the middle of that range. Two sit at the top band, and two fall below the middle band. That leaves a narrow cluster and a couple of outliers on either edge.

What does the difference mean at the reels? The gap between the extremes here is a few points, which sounds small until you picture the turnover behind it. Small edges compound.

The figure is a property of the maths model, and the model does not change because your session started badly or well.

There is a catch worth knowing. Casinos can run different versions of the same game, each with its own RTP setting. The number stored in our table reflects the version we logged. The live figure at your chosen casino may differ. Open the game's info screen before you spin, because the paytable panel carries the RTP for the exact build you are playing.

Demo mode is the simplest way to read a paytable without staking anything. Most of the titles here load a demo, so you can check the info screen and the return figure first.

Volatility and top win potential

Volatility labelGames
Medium12

The catalogue splits into a wide middle and thin edges. Medium games form the largest group, and the low and medium-high bands sit either side of it. Only a handful of titles sit at the extremes, so most of the range leans toward balanced play with occasional swings. Picking a game on RTP alone misses that.

GameMax win
Cazino Cosmosx 11821
Alchymedesx 10000
Gem Rocksx 9217
Dark Vortexx 7318
Valley of the Godsx 5800

Top win potential is stored as a multiplier of the stake, so a figure of a few thousand times means a payout of that many times your bet. The leading titles reach into the thousands. Cazino Cosmos and Alchymedes sit at the head of it, with Gem Rocks, Dark Vortex and Valley of the Gods close behind.

A high ceiling says nothing about how often you reach it.

Themes and features

Yggdrasil Gaming builds its slots around a handful of recurring themes. Those categories overlap inside single titles. Baron Samedi mixes Cards, Magic, Mystery, Horror and Wizards on one grid, while Gem Rocks pulls Gold, Diamond, Magic and Horror together. The table below lists the theme counts for the whole catalogue.

Magic7

Gold6

Features follow a similar pattern. One title carries no listed feature at all. The spread is wide enough that a player who wants a plain wild and scatter game can find one, and a player who wants stacked mechanics has options too. Golden Fish Tank carries Wild Symbol, Scatters, Multipliers, Free Spins and a Bonus Round on a single game. Valley of the Gods lists Free Spins and Multipliers with no Scatters and no Bonus Round. The features table below shows how often each mechanic appears.

A theme label describes the artwork and symbols, and a feature label describes what the reels do.

The Yggdrasil Gaming slots I would open first

I would start with Cazino Cosmos.

Cazino Cosmos carries the biggest max win in the whole catalogue, it runs on High volatility, and it arrived in 2019. Alchymedes sits second on that same list, and its Medium volatility makes it a calmer route to a large number for anyone who finds the top slot too sharp. Gem Rocks is the one I would open next, because a six reel grid with 4096 ways to win gives the session a different shape from the five reel games that fill most of the catalogue. Baron Samedi rounds out the four with an RTP of 97.00%, the second highest figure in our set, and a horror and magic theme.

Two of those four games sit in the High volatility bracket. The rest of the catalogue leans Medium, and that spread matters more than any single figure when you are choosing where to spend an evening.

Demo mode is available on all four picks, so you can test the pace before staking anything.

The table below holds the per game figures for each of these titles.

What the numbers do not tell you

Every game in this catalogue carries an RTP figure and a release year. Volatility is blank on several titles, including Baron Samedi and Golden Fishtank. Max win is missing on others, and one game in the list has no demo link attached.

Those gaps matter because the fields we do hold describe a snapshot. The studio reports a portfolio of 450+ offered games across its own site, while our catalogue covers a small part of them. No table closes that distance.

A stored RTP is a figure recorded at the time of publication. Regional releases can also carry different paytables.

The data cannot show how a slot feels over a long session, how often a bonus round lands, or whether a theme holds your attention over a long session. Read the figures as a starting point, then use demo mode where a link exists.

Finding casinos with Yggdrasil Gaming games

Our database holds 172 published casino reviews tagged with Yggdrasil Gaming. That figure counts the casinos listed as offering its games, and it moves as we add and re-check reviews. A casino review page tells you what the operator stocks, which currencies and payment methods it lists, and where its licence sits.

Availability is a separate question from the count. Check the game lobby or the cashier search box and type the studio name.

Every game page on this site links to a demo where one exists, so you can test a title before you register anywhere. Demo play uses virtual credits. The providers index lists every studio we cover, including this one, and the casino reviews sit alongside it.

Two practical checks before you deposit. Confirm the operator's licence matches your country, and confirm the withdrawal terms in the cashier. Both are on the review page.

The count is a snapshot of our database, and it is not a recommendation of any operator on the list.

Play with limits

Yggdrasil Gaming slots run on chance, and no session plan changes that. You control the money and the time you bring to the table. Set a deposit limit before you open a single game, and set a session timer alongside it.

If a session stops being fun, close the tab and walk away. Raising your stake to chase a loss leads to a bad night, and the games will still be there tomorrow.

Your local support service can help if play stops feeling like a choice.

My take on Yggdrasil Gaming

The catalogue here is small and consistent. Every game carries a published RTP, and almost every one sits in a narrow band just above the median. That consistency is the main argument for the provider.

The table shows the full picture of top win potential.

Across the catalogue, 12 slots land at medium volatility, 5 at high and 2 at low. Themes lean toward fantasy, magic and horror.

The games counted here are a thin slice of the studio output, so treat this as a sample.

I would open the higher-volatility titles first and check the paytable before betting.
