Hölle Games is a German gaming company, licensed and regulated in Malta. Established in 2020, the company took its time to come up with their first batch of online slots. This proved a worthwhile strategy, as not long after they received partnership deals with such massive online casino distributors as Pariplay and EveryMatrix.

For the moment the company is entirely concentrated on producing online slots. The name Hölle Games itself is a throwback to the era of Spielhölles, which is what slot gaming halls are called in Germany. Another meaning for the term is simply good or great gaming, which is something that Hölle seeks to bring to worldwide audiences.

In this article, we take a look at the characteristics of the games, how they play out, and what makes them interesting. Feel free to check out our individual slot reviews for detailed examples, or simply fire up the games in demo mode to have a look yourself.

Classic fruits and bells

One could argue that Germans love classic slot gaming. This is supported by the fact that the biggest German online gaming companies have decades of working in the field, producing classics for European and worldwide audiences. On the other hand, quite a few of these companies are more interested in land-based gaming than in online gaming, and it usually shows in the quality of the games.

...not so for this company, which is determined to perfect the experience for the online era. This shows up as excellent graphics, a rich world of sounds and compatibility with all devices from smartphones to anything else that can use a browser and an internet connection.

Paylines, reels and other setups

Though some parts of the traditional slot experience are brought to the modern era, the most important aspects are still kept the same. This means that most of the time you’re looking at games that trust in the true and tested three or five reels of three symbols each. Throughout these, you can gather wins from a select few paylines.

Obviously, concentrating on this narrow area of online slots gaming means that the company isn’t going to come out with Megaways slots, groundbreaking designs or brand new special features any time soon. Luckily, that’s not much of a drawback for anyone who is interested in the traditional setup. We too like it simple and clear cut, yet exciting and entertaining.

Sometimes the RTP can dip a bit low

...but there’s a reason for this. As it turns out, Germany has recently levied a tax on all bets placed on slots. This means that if game designers, online casinos and other operators want to make a profit, they have to lower the RTP. This is why you’ll find online slots from Hölle that have return to player ratings of around 94%. Luckily, the company has found a way around this in the form of extra spins.

See, instead of wins, especially on the smaller wins, you gain extra spins. For these, the tax mentioned above doesn’t apply. In effect, this means that you’re still getting a good bang for your buck.

...and of course, the same RTP might not apply in different jurisdictions, where no such taxes are enforced. That Maltese Gaming License the company holds really comes in handy here. Make sure to check which RTP applies before playing your spins.

Special features, are there any?

We’re going to be honest here, in most cases you are going to run into the gamble function. This is either your normal “guess the card” or the slightly more complex ladder system. In either case, you take chances to increase the basic win you have scored in the game. It’s possible to do this quite a few times in succession, though we would advise against that as the risk is always great - but so are the rewards.

Occasionally, you might run into extra spins, scatters and wilds, but even these are not stock features in most slots from Hölle Games. You definitely shouldn’t expect complex mini-games or other groundbreaking evolution of online slots.

certified_and_good_to_go_slot

Certified and good to go

One thing, amongst others, that the company has going for itself is the fact that it is well certified and licensed. The Maltese Gaming License ensures that everything is in good order and that the games are available for most players. As if this in itself wasn’t enough, Hölle Games has sought additional certificates, such as the one from iTech Labs, as well as an ISO qualification from Isonike. Certainly, something that further reinforces the image of superb German quality.

Games beyond the classic influence

These slots are not all about fruits, bells and the usual whistles. There are themes and setups that create a bit more modern picture of what an online slot can be. But even in these cases, the gameplay trusts in the standards that have been perfected over time.

However, the company is relatively fresh. Having only been in operation since 2020 means that they haven’t really built a considerable portfolio yet. This is further influenced by the dedication to quality, which further slows down production. It might take a few years more until we have the complete picture of what Hölle Games is capable of.

What about the future?

So far we have been quite impressed with what we have seen, to the point that we are definitely going to keep you updated on new slots and other gaming news from this company. The fact that these games have been picked up by several big online casinos, as well as big content aggregators, speaks for itself too.

Have a look and have a spin, especially if you’re into fruits and simple setups. And hopefully, in the future the type and themes and specials will widen to cover a larger area.
