ScatterKings, a brand-new game development studio, has officially entered the global iGaming market with a bold mission to revitalize an online casino sector they view as increasingly saturated with generic content.

Founded by a trio of battle-tested industry veterans, the studio represents the culmination of years of development, channeling deep expertise into games that are crafted with genuine artistic soul rather than automated processes.

The studio’s debut portfolio is led by the flagship title Coins of Cleo, which has been released alongside other distinctive games such as Genie’s Golden LampsBig Bob, and their signature Gold Lock mechanics.

Each release is designed to showcase a powerful fusion of proven gameplay mechanics and a unique artistic vision.

A defining characteristic of ScatterKings’ approach is the use of hand-drawn graphics, developed with meticulous care.

This traditional craftsmanship is seamlessly integrated with advanced, cloud-native AI technology to ensure flawless performance across all devices, delivering entertainment that feels both personal and technically superior.

The leadership team behind ScatterKings brings decades of combined experience to the venture.

The founding trio consists of Steven Batchelor-Manning (Chief Technology Officer), Boro Brumen (Chief Product Officer), and Steven Cross (Chief Commercial Officer), all of whom formerly held senior positions within Novomatic’s interactive division.

This experienced leadership is now guiding a growing global team focused on product excellence and strategic commercial expansion.

Looking ahead, ScatterKings is prioritizing key strategic partnerships, offering to craft bespoke content for operators that blends premium production values with localized themes tailored to specific player demographics.

Regulatory compliance is embedded in the studio’s core operations, with immediate plans to launch its content across numerous European jurisdictions in the coming months.

By focusing on quality over quantity and leveraging a unique blend of human creativity and modern technology, ScatterKings aims to set a new standard for what players can expect from online casino entertainment.

Steven Cross, Chief Commercial Officer at ScatterKings:

After years of hard work behind the scenes, we’re buzzing to officially launch into the iGaming market. There are some truly great studios in this industry, but the overall quality is dropping as the market becomes increasingly saturated. What we need isn’t more games – we need better ones full of personality and genuine craftsmanship.

Operators are at the heart of our roadmap, and we have some major strategic partnerships coming that we’re excited to announce. We have a hugely talented team behind us, blending hand-crafted creativity with advanced AI-driven technology to build content with passion – titles players know they can trust. We can’t wait to introduce our content to players, and we’re only just getting started.
