Novomatic acquisition
Novomatic acquired Ainsworth in early 2018, following a process that had been under way for more than two years. Closing the deal required approval from Australian gaming authorities and the Nevada Gaming Commission. Compliance reviews covered both Novomatic and AGT, and Ainsworth’s minority shareholders also had to approve the transaction.
The deal gave Novomatic a 52% controlling interest in AGT. The acquisition was described as a way to strengthen Novomatic’s position in the U.S. market, where Ainsworth already had permission to operate. After the purchase, Ainsworth continued as a separate company, developing its own games and maintaining its own identity.
Ainsworth game catalogue
Ainsworth’s portfolio features more than 35 slot titles; slots are the company’s only games, both online and in land-based casinos. Players who have tried the physical versions and later sampled the online slots report little difference between them.
Some titles offer mystery or progressive jackpots that can increase potential winnings. Features also include wild symbols, free spins and pick ‘em rounds. The review identifies these as some of the provider’s popular slots:
- Barnyard Bonanza
- Flying Horse
- Rumble Rumble
- Pure Platinum
- Thunder Cash
- Mustang Money
- Jungle Monkeys
- King Chameleon
- Grand Bazaar
- Player’s Paradise
Strengths and drawbacks
Pros
- The games aim to bring the atmosphere of a land-based casino to online play.
- Scatter and wild symbols add a range of features and possible ways to form winning combinations.
- Most slot titles are described as having average variance.
- The catalogue is available in numerous countries and several languages.
Cons
- AGT’s catalogue is limited to slots, and the review finds no indication that other game types will be added soon.
- Some players say Ainsworth’s games are similar to titles from Aristocrat.
- Several slots use comparable themes, including animals.
Final assessment
Ainsworth may appeal to players looking for slots with a style reminiscent of games in a physical casino. Those seeking a wider mix of game types may find the selection limited, as the company focuses on slots. The review describes the provider as reputable and notes its presence in many parts of the world, but this does not establish whether any particular site is authorised or available in Canada. Players who prefer straightforward slots to elaborate features or a broader catalogue may appreciate AGT’s focused offering.
