HS Gaming

Hacksaw Gaming began life in 2018 as a Malta-based studio focused on million-euro online scratchcards, then pivoted into high-volatility video slots that now headline more than 120 mobile-first titles across 20-plus regulated markets.Its design mantra—“portrait first, desktop second”—keeps game files under 15 MB for sub-5-second loads on 3-G while still delivering 60-fps action and cinematic soundtracks. The portfolio ranges from anarchic hits like Chaos Crew and cyber-retro Joker Bombs to the gritty Western phenomenon Wanted Dead or a Wild, each built on proprietary engines that inject fresh excitement into every spin.

Mobile-First Framework & Performance

All Hacksaw releases are coded in lightweight HTML5 with adaptive vector graphics that scale crisply from entry-level Androids to 120 Hz flagships. Portrait-optimised UIs place core controls within thumb reach, and dynamic asset throttling preserves battery life without sacrificing animation fidelity. A single wallet/session token lets players jump between scratchcards, instant-win games, and slots without balance refreshes—critical for keeping engagement high on portable devices.

Innovative Mechanics & Flagship Titles

The studio’s trademark tool-set includes DuelReels™ (expanding VS wild reels up to x100 multipliers), xBomb™ symbols that explode to raise win multipliers, and Split Reels that double symbol counts mid-spin for exponential pay-line growth. Wanted Dead or a Wild headlines with a 12 500× max win and three bonus modes, while Hand of Anubis layers cascading clusters over dual-underworld meters, and RIP City adds two independent wild features for streamer-worthy volatility.

Global Compliance & Partner Tooling

Hacksaw holds licences or certifications in Malta, UK, Ontario, Greece, Sweden, Romania, and more, with GLI/iTech Labs-tested RNGs and RTP bands configurable between 88 % and 98 % to satisfy local rules. Its REST-based API integrates through a single endpoint, supports 24-hour asset swaps for last-minute promos, and ships with royalty-free trailers, multi-language logo packs, and plug-and-play jackpot or tournament widgets—giving marketing teams low-code levers to boost retention and headline wins.
