Relax Gaming Casinos

Relax Gaming is two businesses wearing one name, and it is worth knowing which
one you are dealing with. Founded in 2010 and based in Malta, it runs a
distribution platform that carries other studios’ games into casino lobbies, and
it makes games of its own. The second business is far smaller than the first and
is the reason anybody outside the industry has heard of them.

The Money Train series

Relax makes one thing better than almost anyone, which is a hold and respin
bonus round. Money Train 4
is the current entry and the most extreme, with a ceiling of 150,000x and a base
game that exists purely to get you into the Money Cart.

The design that made the series is the symbol set inside that bonus.
Collectors, Payers, Snipers and Persistent variants interact with each other
rather than simply paying out, so a round builds an argument over several respins
before it resolves. That is unusual, and it is why a fairly plain looking slot
has a following that outlasts most themes.

Dream Drop

The other thing Relax is known for is Dream Drop, a jackpot network layered on
top of games rather than built into one. Five tiers, the largest of which runs to
seven figures, seeded across a set of titles from Relax and its partners. If you
have played a slot with a Dream Drop badge in the corner, that is this.

Where the platform matters

Because Relax also distributes, a great many games you meet at a UK casino
arrive through its Silver Bullet and Powered By programmes without carrying its
name. That is a commercial arrangement rather than a quality signal, and it is
worth not reading a Relax logo on a lobby tile as a statement about who built the
game.

Playing Relax games in the UK

Relax holds a Gambling Commission licence and its games appear across most
mainstream British lobbies. As with every studio, the operator chooses which RTP
configuration to run, so check the information screen inside the game rather than
trusting a figure on a review site.

The Money Train games in particular are at the far end of the volatility
range. They are worth playing deliberately rather than casually, and our
guide to safe online casinos
is the better starting point if that distinction is not one you currently make.
