Company profile
Genii is an independent developer steered by a group of long-serving industry figures. The people at the top have run technology and gaming businesses since 1990, and the studio's stated priority is to keep pushing its games forward rather than repeat familiar formulas.
The in-house team covers more than game design. Its members bring around 15 years of combined iGaming experience to game development, operations and customer relationship management tools, which gives operators a supplier that understands the business side as well as the reels.
Two of the most demanding regulators in the sector, the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Gaming Authority, license the company. That combination opens most regulated European markets to its content.

Leadership
- Dinesh Choudree: Chief Executive Officer
- Jolene Moonsamy: Account Manager
Portfolio and design approach
Spin16 is the title most associated with the brand. Instead of pressing a single spin button, players interact with the reels directly, a mechanic that set Genii apart when it launched.
Variety is the strongest argument for the catalogue. More than 130 games span:
- Video slots: the largest group, from classic fruit-style reels to modern themed releases with different art styles.
- Blackjack: Atlantic City Blackjack, European Blackjack and several other rule sets.
- Other tables: Punto Banco and 3 Card Poker.
- Quick-play titles: keno, a range of scratch cards and video poker.
Genii has also built a large mobile footprint. Its games have been released for Android, iOS and Windows Phone devices as well as desktop and laptop browsers, so a single catalogue covers every screen in your lobby.

Standout Genii games
Slots make up most of the library, supported by scratch cards, video poker and tables such as Punto Banco, 3 Card Poker and keno. Three releases give a sense of the studio's range.
7 Chakras
A spiritual journey on a 5x3 grid, where the seven chakra symbols (the body's energy centres) pay from left to right across 49 lines. The Free Spins Ascension feature is where the biggest results tend to land, with a top prize of 101,250 coins.
Return of Ra
An explorer hunts for the Book of Dead and the pharaohs' treasure across 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines. In free spins a special symbol expands to fill whole reels, lifting the chance of the 50,000-coin maximum payout.
Big Game
Lions and other savanna predators take centre stage on a 5x3 layout with 30 paylines. Up to 20 free spins can be won with every prize tripled, a wild doubles any line it completes, and wins are capped at 90,000 coins.
Technology and mobile play
HTML5 is the foundation of every Genii release, which keeps graphics consistent across browsers and devices. Beside the games, the studio runs FLOW, an automated workflow engine that lets operators build automation into their casino management rules and routines.
On mobile the same titles run on iOS and Android phones and tablets, and earlier releases also supported Windows Phone. Players get an identical experience whether they sit at a laptop or play on the move.
Bonus and cashier tools
A bonus engine is built into the games and works alongside a cashier module. Bonuses are processed in real time from wagering activity, so the operator always sees an up-to-date picture of every active offer. You can also run your own campaigns on top through our standalone bonus system.
Licensing, security and fairness
Current security technology protects the games against tampering. Holding licences from the MGA and the UKGC also means Genii has passed the regulators' checks on game fairness and system integrity, so its titles meet the standards those authorities apply to every licensee.
