Play’n GO vs Hacksaw Gaming: 367 vs 124 Slot Catalog

Play’n GO and Hacksaw Gaming sit at opposite ends of the same slot-studio scale: Play’n GO’s shelf runs 367 titles, while Hacksaw counts 124 games in our catalog, launched roughly two decades later. The gap in catalog size matters less than which of those 124 titles are actually live where you play.

Hacksaw Gaming: Founding Year, Jurisdiction and Licenses

Hacksaw Gaming launched in 2017 out of Malta and now operates under four regulatory licenses. Per the licenses on file, Hacksaw holds approvals from the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA), the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC), the Swedish Gambling Authority (SGA) and the Romanian National Gambling Office (ONJN), with eCOGRA listed as its auditor. Its declared area served spans the United Kingdom, Malta, Sweden and Romania, among other markets.

Hacksaw Gaming built this regulatory footprint in under a decade, compared with a studio like Play’n GO that started roughly 20 years earlier by the same industry timeline. For a player, four overlapping licenses mean Hacksaw’s math models and RNG are audited under more than one regime, which is a meaningfully different starting point than a single-license newcomer studio.

How Does Hacksaw’s 124-Game Catalog Compare to Play’n GO’s 367?

Hacksaw’s catalog is close to three times smaller than Play’n GO’s — 124 games in our catalog against 367 for Play’n GO. That difference reflects a two-decade head start more than a gap in output pace.

For a player scanning a lobby, a smaller catalog is easier to audit end to end — you can realistically check whether all 124 Hacksaw titles are present rather than sampling a fraction of 367. Per our taxonomy, that makes Hacksaw’s shelf a more traceable one for verifying real availability rather than assuming a full studio library is loaded.

Which Hacksaw Slots Are Live in Our Catalog?

Hacksaw’s own catalog includes titles such as Gold Coins, Shave the Sheep, Rat Riches, Balloons and Crazy Donuts. These five sit inside the broader 124-game count tracked in our records, not the full list, so treat them as a representative slice rather than the complete shelf.

Because studio-wide catalogs mix wildly different math models under one brand, checking the in-lobby RTP display before wagering is worth the extra step — the volatility comparison guide covers how two games can share a headline RTP while carrying very different risk profiles. The full range of catalogued titles across studios sits in the games catalogue.

Where to Play Hacksaw Slots?

Hacksaw’s titles are confirmed live at 102 casinos in our database, including Wild Tornado Casino, WinSpin Casino and Rooster Bet Casino. That figure is drawn from our own availability records, not a studio-wide claim, which is the fingerprint fact that separates a licensed studio’s global footprint from what a given operator actually loads into its lobby.

Carrying Hacksaw as a brand does not guarantee all 124 titles sit in one operator’s lobby — availability at the studio level and availability at a single casino level are two different numbers, and only the second one determines what you can spin tonight.

Check before you assume

A casino listing Hacksaw as a supplier does not mean every one of the 124 games is loaded — search the lobby directly for the specific title before counting on it.

Verdict on Play’n GO vs Hacksaw Gaming

Matching the studio-wide count against the operator’s actual game list is the only reliable way to know which titles are real. Hacksaw fits players who want a smaller, easier-to-audit catalog backed by four overlapping licenses and want to confirm every title’s presence rather than assume a full library. Play’n GO fits players prioritizing sheer volume and a two-decade-deep back catalog, where sampling rather than full verification is the realistic approach given the larger 367-title spread.

Either way, cross-check the operator itself before depositing against a specific supplier’s catalog — the casino reviews section is where that verification starts.
