Established as a company in 1999 and based in the Canadian city of Montreal, Side City Studios has not exactly been at the forefront of slot machine development in the past few years – at least not in the world of online gambling.

However, the game developer has traditionally focussed on providing its slot machine titles to the brick-and-mortar of land-based casinos, meaning that online punters in outside of the North American betting sphere might have had little opportunity to stumble across the company's games.

That is all about to change, however. That is because, as of 2015, Side City Studios was acquired by NYX Gaming Group, one of the largest suppliers of slot machines to the online gambling sector. In fact, if you've been around the online casino circuit a few times then you should be more than familiar with some of the other game studios by NYX Interactive.

Ever heard of NextGen, Amaya, Aristocrat? These well-known and much-loved creators of online video slots are just a few examples of other software companies that work under the same group. With that in mind, it would be reasonable to expect the same high standards of graphics, gameplay and thematic variety when it comes to the game's on offer by Side City Studios, right? Well, we're about to find out.
