Tell us about what DGGS looks for in their games for the German market
Florian Werner: When selecting games for the German market, DGGS places a strong emphasis on quality, responsibility, and long-term viability. Regulatory compliance is a fundamental requirement, but we also pay close attention to transparent game design and whether a title can meet player expectations over time.
Through our fully regulated and licensed platforms, such as BingBong and JackpotPiraten, we gain ongoing insights into how German players engage with online slots and what they value most. Games that perform well tend to have clearly structured mechanics, bonus features that are easy to follow, and a balanced level of volatility. In the German market, lasting success is less about short-term trends and much more about reliability, clarity, and trust.
Why do you think Greentube games resonate so well with players in Germany?
Greentube games resonate with German players largely because the company understands the local market extremely well. Greentube has been present in Germany for many years, which has helped establish strong brand recognition and a high level of trust among players.
Beyond that, Greentube’s games are known for their balanced mathematics, stable performance, and familiar mechanics. Players recognise these characteristics, and they align closely with what German online casino players typically expect from high-quality slot games.
Piggy Prizes Wand of Riches 2 had a very positive start on your website, landing in the top 5 when it launched in October. What do you think made this game so popular?
Piggy Prizes Wand of Riches 2 saw a strong initial response because it builds on two well-known concepts. By combining the established Piggy Prizes brand with the popular Wand of Riches theme, the game feels immediately familiar while still offering something new.
The jackpot feature adds a clear layer of differentiation, while the slot keeps the core structure and mechanics of the original title. This makes it easy for existing players to get into the game and helps explain why it performed so well shortly after launch.
Book of Ra deluxe continues to be a timeless classic on your websites. Why do you think this game continues to be so popular after so many years?
Book of Ra deluxe continues to hold a special position in the German market because of its long-standing presence across land-based casinos, arcades, and online platforms. For many players in Germany, it was one of the first slot games they ever encountered, which creates a strong and lasting connection.
The familiar Egypt theme, the iconic free spins feature with an expanding symbol, and the recognisable visual style have all contributed to the game’s longevity. These elements have allowed Book of Ra deluxe to remain relevant and popular in the German online casino market over many years.
What type of game mechanics and features do you think players in Germany like the most, and what innovations are you looking forward to seeing in the near future?
German players generally prefer online slots that feel structured and transparent. Clear bonus mechanics and moderate volatility tend to perform particularly well, especially in a regulated market environment. Features such as free spins with expanding symbols, sticky wilds, or straightforward multipliers are popular because they are easy to understand and offer clearly defined outcomes.
Looking ahead, innovation in the German online casino market should primarily focus on improving the overall player experience in a responsible and compliant way. Enhancements in usability, accessibility, and regulation-compliant personalisation are likely to have a greater impact than adding increasingly complex game mechanics.
You’ve played plenty of Greentube games this year, what would you say was your personal favourite?
My personal favourite Greentube slot this year was Captain Venture. The pirate theme fits very well with JackpotPiraten, and the game stands out thanks to its clearly structured free spins feature with multipliers of up to 4x. Overall, it reflects many of the characteristics that German players tend to appreciate in well-designed slot games.
What do you enjoy most about the partnership with Greentube?
What we value most about our partnership with Greentube is the close alignment and the shared understanding of the German market. This close collaboration is built on trust, transparency, and a long-term perspective.
This setup allows us to combine our local market expertise with Greentube’s international experience in game development. As a result, we are able to offer slot games that are fully compliant and well aligned with the expectations of players in the regulated German online casino market.
