Boss Casino is a multi-software online real money game supplier licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority since September 27, 2018.

Look for a good selection of games from well-known as well as up-and-coming developers, a few regional favorites, and everything in between.

Suppliers include:

• AGames
• NetEnt
• BetSoft
• GameArt
• iSoftBet
• PragmaticPlay
• Quickspin
• Evolution Gaming
• HollywoodTV
• Reel Time Gaming
• Playn'GO

That list only reflects the logos found on the footer of the gaming lobby...

A deeper look shows over 1,300 titles with nearly 1,000 of those being video slots. The live dealer suite alone features tables streaming from Evolution, Ezugi, NetEnt, and Hollywood TV along with some Kiron virtual horse racing thrown in for added flavor!

It may not be quite like a box of chocolates, but on a recent visit, we found titles from Spinomenal, Slotmotion, Habanero, Pariplay, Gamomat, ELK, Ganapati, Booming Games, NoLimit City, EvoPlay, Endorphina, and Tom Horn to boot!

Operator Details

The site is operated by Boss Development Limited of Malta (NetEnt games) and by Boss Gaming Group N.V. of Curacao with Boliviena Holdings Ltd. for the live casinos and other games. A similar, sister-site (Curacao, Nicosia), that doesn't seem to hold MGA approval is SlotoBoss. 

While the site didn't display a clickable chevron for Curacao license number No.8048/JAZ2015-041 when accessed from outside of Europe, the license is clearly stated.

The only sure association we are able to make with one of the company's game suppliers, AGames (formerly known as AnotherGames) and likely platform provider, Boss Gaming Solutions (formerly Boss Gaming Studio) is through the MGA licensing details.

The site has been active since at least 2016, but the current domain was registered in early 2018. An earlier .eu TLD now redirects to the more recent .com site.

We were unable to find any unresolved issues related to any Boss sites, past or present, and the onboard casino rep's forum at LCB has never registered a query or complaint.

Software and Games

Like the vast majority of online gaming sites nowadays, the Boss. Platform allows instant play in any modern browser on a desktop, laptop, tablet, or iOS/Android handset.

Unlike many delivery systems, a lot of thought has gone into how players can find the games they want. 

Clicking on "All Providers", rather than a particular developer's logo - such as NoLimit City - will bring up all games in the category/game type you have chosen.

Clicking on more than one logo will populate the suite with games from more than one specific provider. Click again to toggle any provider filter off. The active provider selection displays the logo in full and proper color for the trademark, while inactive logos remain but are simply desaturated of any color so you can intuitively see at a glance whose games you are selecting from.

While more specific advanced filters such as RTP (theoretical return to player percentage) and volatility haven't been incorporated, the average player interested in those attributes most likely already knows those indexes.

Game Selection - Slots

NetEnt and BetSoft would seem to be the backbone of the gaming selection here. Diehard fans of the familiar will not be disappointed!

The site offers over 130 NetEnt video slots for players of every persuasion. From Bloodsuckers and Dracula to Berry Burst, Butterfly Staxx, and seasonal editions of favorites like Flowers.

Of course, those who seek riches will find progressives such as Divine Fortune and the extremely volatile Dead or Alive.

Betsoft fills the bill with cinematic player favorites like Fa Fa Twins, At the Copa, and A Night in Paris along with progressive jackpot versions of Tycoons, Slots Angels, The Slotfather, and Mega Glam life.

There's really something for everybody here, whether you like...

Endorphina with their Euro-centric high volatility games (create your own level of risk in the bonus round of Satoshi's Secret)

Ganapati with their authentic Japanese flavor slots

Quickspin, the Nordic Playtech acquisition with content to equal the phenomenal ELK Studios and Yggdrasil in some reviewer's estimations.

Tom Horn continues their steady expansion into diverse niches and marketplaces with Drunken Vikings, Geisha's Fun, and 243 Crystal Fruits.

Habanero presents a great selection of older and newer games with everything from Bombs Away to Panda Panda, Jugglenaught, Koi Gate and Fire Rooster.

AGames brings their unique gamagination (their word, not mine) to the table with slots like Stellar, Cute Farm, World Cup Football Slot and Egypt Story to name a few.

Stellar is a game anyone can play with all 10 paylines awarding wins in both directions on this 5-reel slot. Three or more matching symbols on a payline award a win. Look for plenty of free spins and big wins when the mood strikes the game right. Bursting Wilds spread out and grant respins with wilds remaining in place.

Check out the video above for a taste of the fantasmagoric winning potential of this slot.

Other Games

RNG Table Games like roulette, blackjack, punto banco/baccarat, keno, bingo, and a great selection of table poker titles from top developers fill this suite with nearly 200 choices. 

Low limit or high limit, trying to get lucky, testing your strategies and skill, or just passing some time playing a numbers game to fatten up your bankroll - it's all here!

Video Poker presents a mixed bag of options. This is a great section to use the game vendor filter on if you don't usually study the paytable before diving in. You'll find 10 titles from iSoftBet (definitely read the paytables on those games) as well as 9 titles from Tom Horn among nearly 140 game choices.

Play'n GO, NetEnt, and Habanero are our favorites here, but you might find the  30+ titles and variants from Betsoft more to your liking. (Novice hint: Look for Heads Up Hold'em Poker 3 in the table games section)

Classic Slots can turn a Hail Mary spin into a whole new gaming session or even an immediate cashout on a lucky day. Unfortunately, this page of the catalog has only 8 choices - four from NetEnt and four from Play'n GO.

Live Casino

If variety is indeed the spice of life, new players should get ready for a veritable banquet here.

Hollywood TV is a unique provider with a sort of augmented reality approach to costuming and gameworld settings. Treasure Island, Cleopatra's Lounge, Casino Royal, and Bikini Beach are the settings for about 30 game presentation choices. If you've never played HTV live streams, get ready for something refreshing and unique!

Evolution Gaming is another option with each game on display before you enter their particular lobby.

• NetEnt Live Casino Lobby
• Ezugi Live Casino Lobby

Bonuses and Promotions

Look for a generous Welcome Package, Daily Spins, Mid-week and weekend offers as well as a High Roller Bonus and seasonal incentives. Comps and perks are not publically displayed in the promotions section, but instructions on how to find yours after logging in are provided.

We do have to grumble a little here on the operator's choice of words or maths, whichever...

The now-current welcome package is advertised as 225% plus x# free spins. Great!?!

Nope...

At least not by those numbers. I don't care where you went to school, you can't simply add percentages as if they were apples and oranges and call them fruits.

• 100% on €300 (deposit300/bonus300)
• 50% on €100 (d100/b50)
• 75% on €300 (d300/b225)

That's not 225%, it's a little over 82% (.82142857)

• Deposits = €700
• Bonus = €575
• Welcome Package ~ 82%

Only slots (with some excluded games, see terms) are counted toward bonus wagering requirements.  WR is the same for any percentage match and relatively high. Most match bonuses have no max cashout, so that's good.

While they may or may not offer VIPs occasional bonuses on live dealer games, live dealer play does accumulate comp points!

Banking and Customer Service

While you can play most games for free, if you want to cash out your virtual winnings you'll have to make a real money deposit to get real money back. Several payment methods are supported including Visa/Mastercard, Neteller/Skrill, and Wire transfer. There are no fees on the casino side for deposits or withdrawals. However, Wire transfer deposits and Mastercard withdrawals are not supported. Live chat is available 24/7 to assist.

Most methods have low limits. Bank wire withdrawals have higher minimums.

Withdrawals to eWallets are stated as up to 48 hours; Visa, 1-3 banking days, and Bank transfer 3-5 days on the casino end.

Pitfalls

• Limited weekly and monthly withdrawal limits (excluding progressive jackpots)
• Relatively high bonus wagering requirements
• No phone support listed
• Bonus terms located deep in the general T&C
• Free spins winnings require wagering the associated deposit 4x, expire in 24 hrs

The Final Word

Boss Casino offers players a Maltese licensed and regulated gaming experience with a vast assortment of games. The MGA license is a significant milestone and a shining light to players looking for transparency and integrity.

The operators have chosen to participate in a premiere gaming regulatory jurisdiction with far more controls and remedies than any Caribbean regulator. That, taken into consideration with a history of few or no complaints, makes it easier to give the operators the benefit of the doubt, and confidently assume that the best is yet to come.

The software and user experience are really quite good, and certainly superior to the vast majority of online gaming packages. The game variety is interesting, to say the least, and some of the mix is genuinely exciting.
