Interview with Relax Gaming – Last Year’s Best Software Provider Winner

In our next interview with last year’s AskGamblers Awards winners, we talked to Daniel Jonsson, Head of Games at Relax Gaming. To remind you – Relax Gaming won the Best Software Provider Award at the 5th AskGamblers Awards. Let’s see what Daniel had to say.

• First of all, congratulations again on winning the Best Software Provider Award last year! The competition was fierce for this title last year. How did you feel when you won the award?

Daniel: Thank you! Winning awards is a great measure of our overall success, and winning this one was particularly special for us as it was voted by the player community.

It’s fantastic recognition, to say the least. It genuinely means so much to all of us at Relax Gaming when we’re given praise for our hard work. We’re encouraged to continue delivering the same high-quality content to the loyal gaming community around the world.

• What do you think was the key to this achievement? How do you get to stay on top of the game all these years?

Daniel: That’s simple, we stay hungry! We never stop learning or settle for ‘good enough’ at Relax, there’s absolutely no desire to rest on our laurels.

What’s more, we have made a commitment to only work on projects that we know will push beyond the limits of the status quo, we want to be ahead of the curve with everything we do, and this approach has worked well for us so far.

The technical power and undercurrent of our company mean that we can underpin our concepts with stable and reliable systems that work. Without this, nothing would have been possible.

• Could you briefly describe the process of creating a new game? Where do you even begin?

Daniel: It takes us six-nine months to create a game from scratch. The creative process always begins with group brainstorming sessions that include a range of people from across the business. It’s pivotal that we include our mathematicians from day one in order to ensure that our exciting concepts are rooted in tangible value.

• Is there a company (or a few) that you think motivates Relax Gaming to go above and beyond to be among the best in the field?

Daniel: There are plenty of companies out there that we have a lot of respect for. We know we’re not the only ones doing great things, and we love healthy competition. We are genuinely thankful for all of those great suppliers out there (and those new up-and-coming ones), as they keep us humble and striving for more.

• Any expectations or predictions for this year’s AskGamblers Awards?

Daniel: We are hoping to do just as well as we did last year, especially considering we have enjoyed such an excellent twelve months. During this time, we have released a few show-stopping successes, including the launch of our already legendary Dream Drop Jackpots and the highly anticipated release of Money Train 3. So sit tight, we have a lot more where that came from!
