F*bastards – No More Boring Games
When it comes to slots, F*Bastards are on a mission. The coolest new thing on the block with a fresh perspective and attitude, the company is set to bring a new wave of excitement and innovation to the casino industry by producing games that are visually stunning, artistically inspired, and technologically advanced. It’s time that a new generation of slots made an appearance in the modern world.
The casino industry is heavily regulated and competitive, therefore companies are hesitant to take risks on developing more innovative or unconventional games that may not appeal to a broad audience. F*Bastards are not here to “play it safe”.
“We don’t need to be beloved, or even liked for that matter. We have set only one goal – to produce kick-ass games. As we see it, the biggest victims in this current never ending cycle of consumer torture are the players. They play repetitive slots for the same reason people go back to their toxic exes – there’s just nothing better out there. With only a few studios offering some basic innovation, we see an opportunity. We are talented enough to function as the missing link between slot production and the player expectations, and we have built enough momentum to bring something completely different to the table,” said F*Bastards office representative Karl Zander.
F*Bastards was started by a team of experienced iGaming industry veterans, who have held various positions ranging from front office executives, marketing department heads and content creators in the CEE region.
“Yes, we have experience and credentials. But our edge over the competition lies elsewhere. All of us are players at heart. Sometimes to our detriment. We fudge-ing love slots. Combined, we have touched and experienced every open or even hidden corner of the business. We know what we want as players. We know what players want as consumers. We’re making sure that our slots are actually fun to play. We want everyone to get excited about playing our games because they’re completely different from what you’ve played before. And we want you to keep coming back for more because you know that when you do play our games, you’ll be treated to something truly awesome,” commented Karl Zander.
Despite the recent entry in the market, F*Bastards already established exclusive partnerships in the casino industry by joining forces with Finnplay, Tom Horn Gaming, Every Matrix, BetConstruct and more, thus building a solid foundation for the company.
Currently, the F*Bastards portfolio consists of 10 games. 10 more titles are in the production phase and will be released through the year of 2023.
