History
Pocket Games Soft was founded in 2015 and built a slot catalogue designed for mobile from the start, with a house style of 3D-rendered characters and animation. Its registered office is in Valletta, Malta; it does not disclose a parent company or ownership structure, and the commonly repeated description of Asian development operations is not stated on its own corporate pages.
It expanded from South East Asia into Europe and, heavily, into Brazil and wider Latin America, where several of its titles became mass-market. It appears on 940 casinos in this project's collected data under the label 'Pocket Games Soft'. Its titles are frequently cloned on unlicensed sites, a consequence of their popularity in markets with weak enforcement, so a 'PG Soft' game outside a licensed operator is not necessarily the studio's.
Notable
- Registered as Pocket Games Soft with a Valletta, Malta registered office; casino supplier lists use both names.
- Built mobile-first with portrait orientation rather than adapting desktop layouts.
- Fortune Tiger and the Mahjong Ways series drove very large distribution in Brazil and South East Asia.
- Publishes no parent company or ownership structure; the widely repeated Asian-development description is not on its own corporate pages.
Notable work
- Mahjong Ways
- Mahjong Ways 2
- Fortune Ox
- Fortune Tiger
- Lucky Neko
How well established
The Maltese registered office is documented. The 2015 founding, the Asian development operations and the ownership are reported by third parties and are not stated on the company's own corporate pages.
