For a casino to flourish it has to have two things – good backend operations and good games. If either of these things is missing or sub-par, players will have a poor experience and won’t return. The operations part is down to the casino itself (BitStarz recently won the Player’s Choice Award at the AskGamblers Awards 2019), but the games are down to the developers. If the casino is an iPhone, then the developers are the app creators. Players don’t tend to give much thought to game developers, but their actions have a direct impact on your gameplay in two main ways which we will discuss here.

Fairness

As a player, the fairness of your gaming experience relies on the developer. Since most online casino games are run through the servers of the game developer, they are legally liable to make sure that their software is fair. This is made possible by the use of random number generator or RNG. As such, they are subject to the scrutiny of governments and third-party regulating bodies. It’s not just a casino that has to have a license – a game developer must have a license too. If a game developer is not licensed, you should run a mile, as it’s likely that the company is offering a questionable product.

The only way to find a company’s license status is to go to its website. Look for its license source (Malta Gaming Authority, UKGC, etc.), and then validate it from the governing body’s website. Reputable casinos like BitStarz will only accept games from licensed game developers with a proven track record.

Variation in Game Choice

Game developers are, you won’t be surprised to hear, a creative bunch, though many have a ‘house style’. This style can dictate the look, feel and interactive elements of a game, so you should look for casinos that are in partnership with different game developers, like BitStarz, so you can enjoy the outputs of a variety of creative minds. No one wants to play the same type of game over and over again. Game developers are the people who make it possible for you to have different variations of roulette, slots, blackjack, and more, so we should be thankful for their creativity.

An Important Partnership

The game makers and the casino form a valuable partnership that, when both work as they should, offer players great fun, great support and, hopefully, great jackpots. Usually, if the casino is reputable then the developers they choose will be too, but it can’t hurt to check up on their legitimacy before you go handing over your money.
