About Big Time Gaming

The studio maintains a catalogue of around 70 titles, built on a philosophy of quality over release volume. Its defining contribution to the slot format is Megaways, a patented engine that randomises reel heights on every spin. Subsequent proprietary formats, including Megaclusters, Megaquads, and Megapays, extend the mechanic family and are each available for third-party licensing.

Content supply runs through direct API integration and via established aggregation partnerships, with Relax Gaming as a key distribution channel. BTG also licences Megaways and its other proprietary mechanics to third-party studios for integration into their own game catalogues. Blueprint Gaming was the first to adopt the Megaways licence in 2018, with dozens of providers following since.

Operator Considerations

BTG’s Megaways mechanic now constitutes a distinct game category within the regulated online slot market. The studio received the Casinomeister Best iGaming Experience award in 2017, an early marker of the mechanic’s player appeal. Branded partnerships with Sony Entertainment provide operators with licensed intellectual property titles, including Wheel of Fortune Megaways and Survivor, unavailable from studios without equivalent agreements.

For operators, BTG engagement spans two dimensions: direct catalogue integration and indirect exposure through the Megaways licensing ecosystem. Direct integration brings proven high-volatility titles with established player followings across the UK and principal European markets. Operators with Megaways titles from licensed studios are already engaging with BTG’s IP regardless of any direct commercial agreement.
