Connections with the Best
SUNFOX Games is licensed by the UK Gambling Commission as a remote software supplier and a core service provider by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission, therefore you can find their releases at many of the leading online casinos in the European market.
Collaborations and exclusive releases with some of the best software providers and platforms in the industry has been integral to the company’s success to date and they can proudly boast of Ash Gaming, Leander Games, Gaming Technology Solutions (GTS) and Spielo G2 as being companies they’ve worked with. However, it’s their partnership with Playtech that is of most significance as the iGaming giant purchased SUNFOX Games in 2017 during a spate of acquisitions.
Another reason their portfolio is so small is that they offer their services to other iGaming companies whether it be complete game production, reskinning existing games from Flash to HTML5, or the production of high quality game trailers to wet the appetite of players in anticipation of upcoming releases.
Hallmarks of Their Games
SUNFOX Games specialise in the development of real money online slots with eye-catching 3D graphics, highlighted by the fact they are currently recruiting more talented artists with exceptional motion graphic skills and the inclusion of at least one animated character in all their releases. However, it’s the immersive cinematic intros to every game that they are most renowned for, often teasing by releasing short clips of them on their YouTube and Vimeo accounts to create some hype for upcoming releases – you won’t be able to peel your eyes off them and you certainly won’t have any desire to hit the skip button!
The geniuses also love to showcase their mathematical prowess by experimenting with different structures, meaning you’ll find everything from 5-reeled slots with 15 paylines to those offering 243 ways to win . They also love to include a flurry of bonus features in every game, with each usually boasting a minimum of three features, ranging from different types of Wild symbols to free spins, pick ‘em games and even progressive jackpots that will have you jumping for joy as you scoop a life-changing win.
They tick another box when it comes to compatibility as all their games have been developed using HTML5 technology, ensuring that they are all mobile-optimised and look fantastic whether you play them on your desktop, tablet or smartphone, simply resizing without losing any of their sharpness.
State of the Art Video Slots
Rather than following in the footsteps of so many other software providers by developing games based on tried and tested themes like the pyramids of Egypt, the gods of Greek mythology, or the luck o’ the Irish, SUNFOX Games have a desire to innovate and this is reflected in their small, albeit unique, portfolio.
The Satsumo’s Revenge video slot is one of their latest releases and it’s a personal favourite of ours as it transports you to a martial arts dojo where you’ll be greeted by a grandmaster and introduced to a clan of fruity fighters. The Playtech exclusive is a 5-reeled slot with 25 paylines that packs an almighty punch as it’s possible to win up to 3,000 coins on a single line, but it’s the bonus features that you’ll be hoping to sink your teeth into as Shuriken Wilds can turn whole reels Wild with wins multiplied by up to 3x and Fighting Free Games see you pick a warrior to represent you for a rock-paper-scissors battle that can result in additional free games and Sticky Wild symbols.
Their three collaborations with Ash Gaming have also resulted in outstanding games hitting the market. The Glass Slipper takes you on a childhood journey as you are transported to a magical world where your task with helping the beautiful Cinderella escaping from her mean stepsisters, The Casino Job sees you get your hands dirty by joining Dan and a crew of casino robbers by bypassing security and breaking into a casino vault for a huge payday, while Time for a Deal sees you take centre stage under the bright lights of a game show studio in the hopes of host Roger Riches announcing huge wins.
Childhood memories will be flooding back if you give Adventures Beyond Wonderland a try – and why wouldn’t you seeing as there are a colossal 2,187 ways to win, while 3 Blind Mice brings the nursery rhyme to life as you see how fast the mice can run onto the reels and nibble their way through blocks of cheese.
Cash Mix is another popular game in the SUNFOX Games portfolio as you head to a beach bar for happy hour with a few very colourful characters, Juicy Booty sees you become part of Captain Lemmy’s crew as you join a quest for three lost keys that unlock a treasure jackpot, while GemBurst is the newest video slot to be released by the company and it bucks the trend of 3D characters, but the explosive wins you experience in the mystical cave more than make up for it!
We Predict a Very Bright Future
The development of 3D slot machines is clearly the forte of SUNFOX Games and it’s an area where they excel with every one of their releases beginning with a stunning intro that immerses you in the theme before characters leap onto the screen and bring the game to life.
Creating an animated character is a time-consuming process alone, never mind how long it takes to produce a cinematic intro that tells the story of the game, as well as the time required to figure out what structure will be used and the bonus features that will be included, so it’s understandable why their portfolio of games is so small despite being in existence from 2011, but they are simply so good that we are left craving more.
The exceptional quality of their games combined with the fact they now have the backing of an iGaming powerhouse like Playtech leads us to expect SUNFOX Games to be a shining example of how to develop slots for many years to come.
