iSoftBet
iSoftBet is a gambling software provider that serves such illustrious brands as Betsson, LeoVegas, and Interwetten, to name just a few. This firm, with offices in both London and Luxemburg, caters to the European market. They offer a number of different games to online casinos including both slots and table games. One of the games that they offer is Multi-Hand Blackjack.
Multi-Hand Blackjack
Multi-Hand Blackjack is an eight deck virtual blackjack game that is shuffled after each round. You can play up to five hands, are not allowed to resplit or surrender and the dealer does peek for blackjack. The dealer stands on soft seventeen and doubling after the split is allowed. Using our basic strategy engine, the house edge for these rules is 0.47% which is fairly typical for a blackjack game.
In terms of other table games, they also provide online casinos with virtual versions of American Roulette, European Roulette, 3d Roulette and Punto Banco (also known as Baccarat).
| Blackjack Variation | BJ Pays | Soft 17 | Double | Re-Split Aces | Surrender | House Edge | Total Decks |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blackjack Multi-Hand VIP | 3:2 | Hit | Any 2 | No | No | 0.47% | 8 |
| Blackjack Atlantic City | 3:2 | Hit | Any 2 | No | No | 0.39% | 8 |
American Roulette
It always amazes me that people choose to play American Roulette when they could play European Roulette instead. The house edge on American Roulette is twice as large as on European Roulette because of the existence of the double zero. Of course, it makes perfect sense that a software provider would offer this game and that an online casino would want to have it because the interests of gamblers and casinos are not exactly aligned.
The house edge of European Roulette is 2.70% whereas for American Roulette the casino advantage is 5.26%. Overall this was a fairly typical roulette offering, with 35:1 payouts for numbers straight up and even money on red or black or odd or even.
They also provide online casinos with a wide variety of video slots, such as Eye of the Amulet.
Eye of the Amulet
Eye of the Amulet has a few different interesting features. If you get a sandstorm you will be awarded Wilds, Five of a Kind Wins, Wild Reels or a Bonus Trigger. There is also a bonus wheel you can hit if you get three amulet symbols and it has a lot of different options like free spins or double wins. You can also earn free spins with extra wilds and/or win multipliers.
Other slot games from this software provider include Disco Double, Slammin 7’s and Neon Reels. Many of their slot games, including Eye of the Amulet, are also available on mobile. Paranormal, Cloud Tales, Platoon and Wild Mobile are just a few of their slots which can be played on your phone.
Certifications
iSoftBet’s games have been certified for fairness by Gaming Labs and iTech Labs. This company is licensed by the UK Gambling Commission and is authorized to provide games in highly regulated countries such as Portugal, Spain, Italy, and Romania. Their software also undergoes rigorous internal audits for quality assurance as well as having their random number generator tested by outside laboratories.
Summary
Overall iSoftBet seems like a reputable software provider. Perhaps they could offer a few different table games to their client casinos as the selection is a bit limited, but all of the games that we tested worked well and had a reasonable if modest graphical display. The rules for their blackjack game were clearly labeled and they seem to have a lot of business deals with solid online gambling firms, which engenders confidence in their operation.
