SGS Universal

SGS Universal has administrative offices in London as well as in Switzerland and the US. Game development is done in the Ukraine. We see their website come online in late 2009 and first notice their conference attendance beginning with an exhibition at ICE in 2010, which was held in London, January 2010. In addition to over 50 online casino games, they provide an online lottery suite that includes scratch games, classic Numeric Lotteries, Keno and Bingo. On land, they provide software for VLT (video lottery terminal) solutions. Their software is currently deployed in Eastern and Western Europe.

SGS Universal Software

The games are delivered over the internet without the need to download software as they play directly in a pop-up browser. Games load in under a minute the first time they are entered, and in a matter of a few seconds once they are cached. The games can be played on any operating system including PC, Mac, and Linux. We have not tested for mobile at this time. The games, however, are instantly scaled to browser size so should work well on some devices. The user control console is clearly labeled, well placed, and intuitive. Game functions and appearance are reminiscent of NetEnt slots. The pay tables are instantly accessible. One small drawback in the user interface is that players must cycle through the number of lines to bet rather than simply pressing the line number on either side of the reels. The games render nicely with no artifacts or observed glitches.

SGS Universal Games

The SGS Universal web page cites 60 slots games and about 30 of those are available to play for free directly from their page. They have unique roulette offerings including European 4 Table Roulette and Roulette without a Zero. The pay table for the game is standard, so we aren't positive whether this is a true 0% house edge game or animated fixed odds or slot type engine. They offer a small handful of RNG and video poker games in addition to about 25 fixed odds, lottery-type games. Their most prolific offering in this area is scratch cards. The scratch games loaded quite slowly but were far more intricate than most online scratch games in regards to user controls and options.
