Overview
Bullshark Games is a slot studio that launched with its first game in late 2023. It is headquartered in Tallinn, Estonia. Founder and CEO Andre Villandberg is a former professional poker player who has worked at Relax Gaming and Yolo Group. The company motto is “From Players to Players.”
Distributed through Hacksaw OpenRGS
Bullshark Games titles run on the OpenRGS platform from Hacksaw Gaming. With OpenRGS, Hacksaw opens up its game servers and distribution network to outside studios. As a result, the controls and screen layout are similar to Hacksaw games, so they feel familiar to players who have tried Hacksaw titles.
The company says it holds licenses and certifications in Curaçao, Malta, Romania, Greece, the Netherlands, and Ontario, Canada, among others, and has also received certification in Italy and Spain.
How the games are made
- It avoids “reskins,” which only change the look of an existing game, and makes it a rule to add new elements every time.
- The founder reportedly plays each game 10,000 to 20,000 times himself before release.
- The standard is “Is this a game we would want to play with real money?”
- Games often include several bonus buy options with different levels of risk.
Main games
| Games | Method |
|---|---|
| Mafia Clash | Debut title, November 2023 |
| Junkyard Kings | 7 reels, grid multipliers and walking wilds, the signature hit |
| Pickle Bandits | Chain line wins and an ever-growing total multiplier |
| Coop Clash | Cluster pays + a moving wild whose multiplier rises with each win |
| Merlin’s Alchemy | Scatter Pays |
| Age of Set | High-volatility Egyptian theme where you collect symbols to unlock features |
What they share is a structure such as cluster pays, scatter pays, or tumble wins, topped with features that grow the multiplier. Most are high volatility, and some games can pay up to 20,000x. The goal is to release 80 games by 2030.
