Shacks Evolution Studios Partners with QTech

QTech Games has entered into a new supplier partnership with Shacks Evolution Studios, a global B2B content developer focused on delivering localized iGaming solutions for emerging markets. The collaboration will bring Shacks’ extensive catalogue of instant-win, crash, and virtual games to QTech’s platform, specifically designed for the African market.

Shacks Evolution Studios, established in 2021, describes itself as Africa’s first dedicated iGaming studio. Its content is carefully curated to address regional challenges such as low-end devices, network latency, and high data costs. Popular titles in their portfolio include crash games like Busly and Matatu, virtuals such as Penaldo, wheel games like Reel Wheel and Spin The Bottle, instant games like Coin Toss, and the mines game Citadel. These games are optimized for fast loading and minimal data usage, ensuring accessibility across Africa’s diverse digital landscape.

This partnership strengthens QTech Games’s position as a leading aggregator in Africa, offering operators a comprehensive gaming portfolio tailored to local needs. The company has already established a strong foothold in multiple African jurisdictions, providing localized mobile apps, advanced reporting tools, and 24/7 multilingual support.

Philip Doftvik, CEO of QTech Games, stated: “We’re committed to expanding high-quality content for Africa, and this deal with Shacks Evolution Studios highlights our ability to deliver agile, locally relevant games. Localization is critical in high-growth regions like Africa, where player demand evolves rapidly due to factors like mobile usage, data costs, and payment preferences. Shacks’ content aligns perfectly with these requirements.”

“Localized design drives player behavior—familiar mechanics reduce friction, culturally relevant themes increase engagement, and faster game cycles encourage repeat play among younger audiences,” Doftvik added.

Esther Osifo, Growth and Operations Manager at Shacks Evolution Studios, said: “Shacks is dedicated to giving African developers the opportunity to succeed. We’re building a complete ecosystem—from virtuals and crash games to homegrown titles—that reinforces Africa’s growing influence in the global iGaming industry. QTech’s platform provides access to new audiences, and we’re eager to see how our games perform with operators across the continent.”
