RTG Controversy
In 2016, Big Time Games came under fire for what appeared to be manipulative practices in an online casino forum. There a member was posting screenshots of his wins and quietly promoting a BTG slot. In addition to posting on the forum, those screenshots were also being entered into a screenshot contest as a drawing for a grand prize in a contest sponsored by Big Time Gaming.
It wasn’t long until forum administrators noticed that the original poster was using the same computer as the Big Time Gaming representative who also posted on the forum. When called out about it, BTG accredited it to an overexcited employee. However, they did not explain why the “winner” and the company official happened to be using the same computer.
BTG Games
RTG is known for its progressive jackpots, which can pay as much as 36,000x. Their casino slots offer between 95% and 97.8% RTP. Gamblers can bet anywhere from .01 to 400 coins per spin, depending upon the game.
One of the BTG’s newest slot features is its Triple Reaction™ mechanics. This feature allows you to spin the reels in three different directions to provide a unique twist on the game. A few of their most popular slot games include:
- Queen of Riches
- Tumbling Treasures
- Temple Quest
- Lucky Streak
- Opal Fruits
- Kingmaker
- Donuts
- Extra Chili
- White Rabbit

The company offers a special category of slots known as reactors. These casino games are known for their intense 3D effects and rather large progressive jackpots. Among their reactor slot titles are:
- Feathered Frenzy
- Mr. Multiplier
- Diamonds
- Joker Jackpot
RTG also offers four casino table games:
- Auto Roulette

Pros & Cons
Pros
- Games are available in more than 20 different languages
- Available at some of the most reputable online casinos
- They promote responsible gambling by allowing players to limit the amount they wager
- You don’t always have to bet money, as some games are available for free
Cons
- Many of their slot and table games have closely-related themes
- Some casino games have a very high variance and can therefore be very intimidating for casual gamblers to play.
- Have only a very limited number of games.
- History of past indiscretions
Conclusion
The nature of BTG’s slot games makes them more suitable for high rollers. In fact, anyone who is playing for fun will likely find them very unnerving, despite the fact that their games are entertaining. Their past controversy in online casino forums should also give people pause, especially since Big Time Gaming continues to run similar promotions. However, they do partner with some of the most reputable gaming companies such as Microgaming, Gaming Technology Solutions, and OpenBet, which may be enough to reassure some people.
