Founded in 1999, in just 20 years Playtech has risen to become the most prominent name in software for the online games industry. Their technology powers online bingo, poker, casinos, sports betting and live dealer games. In fact, Playtech is now so big it's one of the top 250 companies in the UK and is listed on the stock exchange. Its customers include the big names in online gaming, such as Ladbrokes, Bet365, William Hill and many others. Throughout its history, Playtech has acquired other games developers and companies that also make industry software. It's also been good at setting up partnerships with other organisations in the entertainment industry. For example, the company previously had a contract with the owners of Marvel Comics that meant Playtech could use the Marvel characters in online games. That came to an end in 2017, and at first this looked like a setback. However, the company soon announced a tie-up with Warner Brothers, which owns the equally popular DC Comics characters, such as Batman, Superman and others. This meant that Playtech could develop slots based on the DC Comics films, such as The Dark Knight, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Suicide Squad, Trilogy and Justice League. ICE London is an international showcase for the gaming industry, and in 2019, Playtech promoted its latest innovations aimed at the gaming industry. These include Gaming Platform as a Service. This is a quick way for Playtech's customers to build their games. They even ran something called the Playtech Academy - pay attention at the back! Playtech continues to build audiences and alliances with other gaming companies, operating in a range of countries. But it's also best known to players as one of the great slot developers. In fact, here at Slots Temple we've got over 140 of them! So let's take a look at what really counts to slotsters - the graphics, the gameplay and the engagement. Click here to read more.

How to Find the Playtech Slots
If you're a Playtech fan, or just curious about the kind of slots Playtech produces, you'll find that here at Slots Temple, the biggest free slots New Zealand site, we've done the hard work for you. Just go up to the red menu bar at the top of the screen and click on the "Software" button. You'll see screen after screen of top Playtech titles, all available to play for free.
Playtech Titles Based on Screen and TV
The first thing that strikes you is how many titles use well-known characters or are based on films or TV series. In the adventure theme, there's Terminator, Superman, Batman, the X Files, the Six Million Dollar Man, John Wayne, the Sopranos and many more.
Real-life sporting characters feature too - remember that Playtech's platform is used for sports betting, and so slots featuring characters such as Ronnie O'Sullivan and Frankie Dettori are always popular.
But perhaps where Playtech slots really score is in the in-house titles, such as the Age of the Gods series. These slots are famous worldwide and a continuing favourite with players. There are now ten titles in the series, with the latest being Medusa and Monsters. The titles have differing graphic styles, some more captivating visually than others, and players who follow this series definitely have their favourites.
Medusa and Monsters is a six-reel slot with 164 paylines. As so often with Playtech, there's a great idea at the heart of the gameplay. If you remember the myth, Medusa could turn onlookers to stone with her gaze (you've probably got a boss like that). In the game, Medusa's gaze locks symbols in place during the bonus rounds.
What's great about Playtech, though, is how diverse its portfolio of games is. There are titles such as Wolves! Wolves! Wolves, the White King series and Great Blue, which will entrance nature lovers and feature beautifully drawn animals. White King in particular looks really noble.
If you like your animals less realistic and more huggable, you're spoiled for choice with slots like Ice Run with its cute huskies. Then there's Bonus Bears, a cartoon set in a national park where bears are snuffling for bonuses,
In a completely different vein, there are the humorous slots, many based on cartoon characters, such as the Pink Panther, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Spamalot, the Flintstones and others. Vacation Station is everyone's holiday nightmare, and Cosmic Disco is - well - out there!
Of course, there are the exotic titles featuring beautiful and mysterious heroines like Queen of Wands, Charms of the Sea, Esmeralda, Cat Queen and Hawaiian Treasure. But there are also the more heavyweight exciting games, like Justice League, Gladiator, Silent Samurai, Matrix, Iron Man and many more. Many of them, like Terminator Genisys, have great features - in Terminator it's an amazing car chase bonus. All of these are available to play on mobile and tablet.
Responsible Gaming
There's a lot of concern about people who are problem gamblers. Here at Slots Temple you can play for free, but we all know there are those who spend too much money playing online. In 2017, Playtech decided to acquire BetBuddy. This is a company that makes software that can help identify problem gambling behaviour, and Playtech is going to integrate their product into the Playtech platform.
Playtech Slots Volatility
If you're looking for High Payout Slots, you need the high-volatility titles. These are the ones that may keep you waiting a while for a payout - but when you get the big win, you'll definitely know about it.
If you like these kinds of games, you'll find that, yet again, Slots Temple has sorted this out for you! Click on Features, on the red menu at the top of the screen, and then scroll down. You'll find an icon for High Volatility. Click on that and you'll see the slots that offer high payouts. Among the Playtech ones are White King, several Age of the Gods titles, Terminator Genisys and others.
