Located in the heart of Sydney, Australia, not too far from the surfer’s paradise of Manley Beach, Big Wave Gaming are looking to make waves in the online, social and land-based casino markets with their range of slots that are compatible with most platforms. Although they claim to have been in business since 2007, they have definitely gone for quality over quantity and their range is still relatively small, with just a handful of slots in the portfolio.

But they all seem to be good ones, and many have been produced on behalf of the huge Novomatic games company, who choose their sub-contractors carefully as they have a big reputation to keep up and wouldn’t want to damage it by adding sub-standard games to their range. Another major client is Asian slots specialists XIN Gaming, who have exclusive distribution rights for some of the range. For such as small developer, they have done very well to get their range distributed by some very well-known companies, so clearly, they are taking the right strategy for their business.

Big Wave Gaming don’t seem to produce anything under their own branding, instead choosing to develop slots for others, and rather than developing their own systems, which can be an expensive process, they use proprietary software.

It’s a cautious approach which seems to have worked well for them and having their offices in such a beautiful location means they probably like to work at their own pace, maybe heading off to catch some waves after work. Seriously though, they are succeeding in a very competitive market, and have clearly worked hard to get their games played by as many punters as possible.

A look at a few of their slots reveals that they are all of a high standard and some of these are among the more popular games in the Novomatic and XIN Gaming ranges. Although the online, mobile and social gaming markets are becoming more and more important, the land-based casino business is still a huge market, and by incorporating their games into the Novomatic range, they can attract punters at bricks and mortar casinos, who will then perhaps go on to play their slots at some of the best online casinos as well.
