Fantasma Gaming Slots
Fantasma Gaming Overview
Fantasma Games is a Stockholm based gaming studio who were formed in 2016.
In a relatively short space of time, Fantasma Games have regularly impressed the iGaming industry, and they’re living up to their ‘Slots Beyond Gambling’ vision through games that provide exceptional experiences to users with an emphasis on mobile play.
Fantasma Games claim to have a deep understanding of how they want to influence the market, and they boast of a ‘perfect mix’ to create the next generation of slots with expertise from leading gaming and gambling companies.
These big ambitions have manifested themselves through their captivating but small library of games, and all of the offerings so far seem to point to nothing but good things for Fantasma Games going forward.
Fantasma Games History
Since their inception in 2016, Fantasma Games have made some partnerships with companies like Microgaming, Leander Games, Qtec and others including Yggdrasil where they joined the Yggdrasil as the third studio to enter the YGS Masters Programme.
Fantasma also joined the ranks of those offering Megaways Slots to the masses, with a licence they obtained from the mechanics owner, Big Time Gaming.
Fantasma and Relax Gaming partnered up in 2019, which saw Fantasma join Relax Gaming’s Silver Bullet Partnership Programme. This provided a route to market for Fantasma Games that utilised Relax’s comprehensive market reach.
Fantasma Games have also very recently reached a distribution agreement with SG Digital.
This means that Fantasma Games instalments will be made available on the OpenGaming platform, or ‘ecosystem’ as SG calls it.
The OpenGaming platform is an end-to-end solution for providers looking to introduce thier games to players in an easy and seamless integration.
“We are both happy and proud of the fact that as a relatively young company, we are now able to offer our games in North America and other key regulated markets around the world. We want to reach as wide an audience as possible, and this agreement and Scientific Games’ global operations give us that opportunity. We are working hard on a number of new game titles and look forward to presenting more of them through this partnership in the future.” – Fredrik Johansson, Commercial Director of Fantasma Games
“Our vision is to continue to drive the world’s most powerful aggregation platform with leading customers and game developers across every major regulated market, partnering on the development of cutting-edge content that players enjoy and can play responsibly with the necessary responsible gambling tools that come with our offering. Fantasma Games is a young, hungry studio and their ethos and vision make them a perfect new addition to the OpenGaming portfolio. We are very excited about this partnership and look forward to releasing the type of games we know our players love.”” – Steve Mayes, Partnership Director at SG Digital
“Fantasma are one of the studios I hold up whenever anyone asks what genuinely creative slot development looks like. The Titanways mechanic is one of the most original ideas the industry has produced in years, Heroes Hunt is still a brilliant game, and Fortune Llama has properly made a name for itself. A studio with real artistic and mechanical ambition behind every release. Top tier.” Mark, Content Editor
Fantasma Games FAQs
-
What does slots beyond gambling actually mean in practice?
It is the founding philosophy Fantasma Games built in Stockholm in 2016, rooted in the conviction that slot games could draw meaningfully from video game design, specifically from character progression, narrative investment, interactive decision-making, and mechanical originality. Every release since has been evaluated against that standard, which is why the catalogue feels so different to most of what surrounds it. -
What is the Titanways mechanic?
Titanways is Fantasma’s own proprietary ways evaluation system, introduced in Golden Castle Titanways. Rather than a fixed grid, oversized symbols land in sizes of 1×1, 1×2, 1×3, 2×2, and 3×3 across a 6×6 grid. Each symbol’s size determines how many Titanways it creates on that spin, so every spin generates a different ways count based on what lands. It is a genuinely original mechanical invention that changes how the grid feels to play compared to both standard payline slots and traditional Megaways titles. -
What makes Heroes Hunt Megaways stand out from other Megaways slots?
The hero selection system at session start. Players choose between three characters, each with a distinct modifier: the Lion Warrior creates Expanding Wilds with multipliers up to 6x, the Wizard Raven triggers Explosion clears across 2×2 or 3×3 areas, and the Squirrel Archer activates respins while clearing blocker tiles. Heroes level up as they are used, and once all three are active simultaneously, a key symbol can appear. Three keys unlock Dragon Free Spins, the game’s highest win potential phase, targeting a 26,000x maximum win. The session-long progression arc is genuinely unusual for the format. -
What is the highest RTP game in the Fantasma catalogue?
Spooky 5000, which carries an RTP of 98.03%, one of the highest values of any slot from any studio anywhere in the industry. Most other Fantasma titles sit between 96% and 96.65%, with 96% established as the minimum floor across the entire portfolio. -
Who distributes Fantasma Games and where are they available?
The studio distributes through Microgaming, Relax Gaming’s Silver Bullet programme, Games Global, and Light and Wonder’s OpenGaming platform, giving their titles reach across more than 250 operators in up to 50 countries. Licences cover the UKGC, MGA, and Curacao, and all games are certified by eCOGRA. -
How many games do Fantasma currently have and what formats do they cover?
Over 40 titles, all of which are video slots. The catalogue spans Megaways titles including Heroes Hunt Megaways, Heroes Hunt 2 Megaways, Flower Fortunes Megaways, Medallion Megaways, and Maze Escape Megaways, alongside proprietary format titles like Golden Castle Titanways, cluster pay games like Elemento, and standalone releases across a wide range of themes and mechanics.
