NowNow Gaming

NowNow Gaming works out of South Africa. We do not have a founding year on record for the studio, so we are not going to put one in print; what we can measure is the catalogue as it stands on our data source.

That catalogue runs to 30 games, and 16 of them carry a dated release. The oldest dated entry is 17 December 2024 and the newest on file is 25 September 2026, so the paper trail we can see covers a little under two years.

Dated releases by year on the feed:

• 2024: 1 game
• 2025: 6 games
• 2026: 9 games

The direction of travel is up, with 2026 already ahead of the full 2025 count. It also means almost everything under this name is recent, so there is no long back catalogue to dig through.

Themes are only tagged on part of the catalogue, and the tags that are there skew seasonal:

• Halloween: 4 titles
• Winter: 2 titles
• Robots, Devil, Egyptian and Desert: 1 title each

Six of the ten tagged titles fall under Halloween or Winter, so seasonal releases are a visible habit rather than a one-off. The remaining tags are single entries, which is what you would expect from a library this size.

Eight NowNow Gaming titles on our data source publish an RTP. Across those eight the median is 96.15% and the average is 95.95%.

The studios we track average about 95.7%, so this sits above the field. It is worth keeping the sample in mind: eight published figures out of a 30-game catalogue is a thin base to draw a house style from.

The range runs from 94.26% to 96.3%, a spread of just over two percentage points. Seven of the eight sit at 96.15% or better, and the single low reading is 8-Bit Quest at 94.26%, so the distribution is tight with one outlier rather than genuinely scattered.

One practical note: studios often ship the same game in more than one RTP configuration, and the version a particular casino runs is the one that pays you. Check the number on the game's own info screen rather than trusting a figure quoted anywhere else, including here.

Eight titles carry a volatility rating on the 1-5 ladder. Five sit at Medium, one at High and two at Very high, with nothing on file rated Low or Low to medium.

So the middle of the ladder is where this catalogue lives. Medium is the most common rating, which points to a steadier hit rhythm than the two Very high titles, where the swings in both directions are wider and a session can run cold for longer.

We have reviewed one NowNow Gaming release ourselves so far, so this list reflects our own tested slice rather than the full 30-game catalogue:

• Hold & Win: the mechanic tagged in Drill The Thrill, the one release we track. It is the lock-and-respin family, where collected symbols hold on the reels while respins play out.
• Feature buys: if a buy-the-bonus button turns up in a demo, it will not be there in a real-money lobby in Great Britain, because feature buys are switched off for GB players.

The other titles on our data source are ones we have not played, so we are not going to attach mechanic labels to them from a distance. As the desk works through more releases, this list is the part of the page most likely to grow.

On published RTP, the top of the catalogue is Street Knockout at 96.3%, then Shadow Treasure at 96.29%, followed by a block level at 96.15%: Desert Fortunes, Fairy Leaf Tales, Foody Drive, Shakas Riches and Westend Wild.

The one release we have hands-on notes for is Drill The Thrill, dated 27 July 2026, a Hold & Win game publishing 96.32%. That figure is from our own verified data rather than the catalogue feed.

The table below lists what we track and can link. It is a small slice of 30 games, and it grows as the desk plays more of them.

Set against the 80 studios we track:

• Size: 30 games ranks 67th of 80, so this is one of the smaller libraries on our list.
• RTP: an average of 95.95% sits above the field average of about 95.7%, on a sample of eight published figures.
• Volatility: 21 of the 53 rated studios lean Very high, so the high-variance end of the field is crowded. NowNow Gaming leans Medium instead, with two Very high titles as its tail.

Read together: a small catalogue, published RTP slightly better than the field, and variance that sits mid-ladder while much of the field pushes higher. If you want a studio with hundreds of titles to work through, this is not it; if you are after a short recent list where most of the published numbers land at 96.15% or above, it reads better than its size rank suggests.

We go demo-first where a demo exists. The demo is the real game on play money: the same reels, the same maths and the same RTP configuration as the paid version, with a fake balance in place of your own.

No account and no deposit are needed. From Great Britain you will meet an 18+ age check before a free demo loads, which is the standard gate on play-money slots here.

Nothing won in a demo is real, and the balance resets when you reload. What a demo is good for is the pace: how often the base game pays, how long the dry runs feel, and whether a Very high rating on paper actually matches how it plays.

The statistics on this page are computed from the NowNow Gaming catalogue on our data source, and only from the titles that publish each figure. That is why the counts do not match: 30 games in the catalogue, 16 with a dated release, 8 with a published RTP and 8 with a volatility rating.

The reviews are a separate thing. Those come from the individual releases the desk actually plays, which today is a small and current slice of the catalogue. We are not claiming to have played all 30.

When the underlying data changes, these numbers change with it. A new dated release, or a published RTP that moves, gets recomputed rather than rewritten from memory, and the figures above are dated by that recomputation.
