QTech Games, a leading game aggregator focused on emerging markets, has announced a new supplier partnership with Shacks Evolution Studios, a global B2B content developer specializing in localized gaming solutions. The collaboration will enable QTech’s platform partners to access an extensive portfolio of content specifically designed for African markets.
The supplier’s catalogue includes a diverse mix of instant-win, crash, and virtual games. Popular titles feature crash games such as Busly and Matatu, virtual offerings like Penaldo, wheel-based games including Reel Wheel and Spin The Bottle, as well as instant games like Coin Toss and the flagship mines title Citadel.
The portfolio also incorporates traditional table games, all designed to load quickly and deliver seamless user experiences in emerging markets where data costs and connectivity remain key considerations.
This partnership significantly enhances Shacks Evolution Studios reach across Africa, leveraging QTech Games established presence in multiple regulated and emerging jurisdictions. For QTech, the integration strengthens its position as a comprehensive, one-stop gaming solution for operators seeking diverse, locally relevant content.
QTech Games has experienced rapid growth in recent years, offering one of the industry’s most expansive gaming portfolios. Its platform is fully localized for regional markets and supported by native mobile applications, advanced reporting and marketing tools, and 24/7 local-language customer support.
Commenting on the partnership, QTech Games CEO Philip Doftvik said the agreement reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality, locally relevant content across Africa.
“Localisation is critical in high-growth markets like Africa, where player preferences are shaped by factors such as mobile usage, data affordability, device types, and payment methods,” he said. “This partnership with Shacks Evolution Studios introduces a dynamic range of games that are specifically designed to meet these needs, combining accessibility with strong engagement potential.”
He added that localized design plays a crucial role in driving player behavior, noting that familiar game mechanics reduce friction, culturally relevant themes increase engagement, and faster gameplay cycles encourage repeat participation, particularly among younger audiences.
Esther Osifo, Growth and Operations Manager at Shacks Evolution Studios, emphasized the company’s mission to support African talent and innovation within the gaming industry.
“Shacks Evolution Studios is dedicated to creating opportunities for African developers while building a robust ecosystem of locally relevant gaming content,” she said.
“Partnering with QTech Games provides a powerful platform to reach new audiences and expand our footprint across the continent. We are excited to see our games resonate with both established and emerging operators in Africa.”
The partnership marks a significant step in advancing localized gaming experiences and reinforces both companies commitment to supporting the continued growth of Africa’s iGaming sector.
