Hacksaw Gaming

Hacksaw Gaming is a Malta-based slot and instant-win studio founded in 2018 that rose rapidly to become one of the most commercially successful boutique studios. Hacksaw pioneered the mobile-first instant-win scratch card format in casino gaming — its scratch card library accounts for a significant share of instant-game play at major online operators. The studio's slot portfolio includes Stick 'Em (cascading slots with sticky symbols), Mental (extreme max win 50,000x), Chaos Crew, and Highstreet Hooligans. Hacksaw's distinctive cartoon-violence aesthetic and high-volatility mathematical profiles have attracted a younger slot player demographic. The studio's rapid release velocity — multiple new titles monthly — has built a catalogue that rivals studios twice its age. Hacksaw was acquired by Relax Gaming in 2021.
