Online casino 7Red has won Slot Operator of the Year at the International Gaming Awards, hosted last month in London.

Its sleek, crisply produced site oozes class in every measurable category and comes with an assured sense of quality that makes you feel right at home the moment you land on it, so it’s hardly surprising to see that it won – though we suspect that its choice of slots may have been the deciding factor.

Sensibly – like any slots site in the know – it’s chosen to feature Betsoft’s Slot3 games in its arsenal, so with instant classics like Mad Scientist, Arrival, The Slotfather and A Night in Paris playable from your browser you won’t be short of games that suit your interests.

7Red’s win comes despite them only offering 75 games, which sends a clear message out to the bigger manufacturers: Players want games that have been treated as a work of art in their own right, not an endless choice of slots that use the same old templates, identical poker symbols and predictable wild/scatter features with boring tombola-style bonus games.

The site comes in a choice of 13 European languages and offers a full range of table games as well as offering a separate tab for multi-player poker, and markets itself at young, vibrant males – though with the games it offers and its reputation for efficiency in processing wins it should gradually appeal to more and more players of both sexes and all ages.
