Alchemy Gaming is a Johannesburg, South Africa-based B2B iGaming slot studio founded in 2019 and operating as an exclusive content-creation partner of Games Global. Launched as an independent studio with mathematics at its core, Alchemy was positioned from day one inside Microgaming's distribution network as an exclusive Quickfire partner. Its debut release, Wheel of Wishes, launched in February 2020, was chosen by Microgaming to debut the WowPot progressive jackpot network, now one of the industry's largest pooled jackpot systems.
Following Microgaming's divestment to Games Global in 2022, Alchemy's exclusive partnership migrated accordingly. The catalogue now spans more than twenty-five video slots anchored by the proprietary X UP multiplier-trail mechanic. Flagship titles include Goldaur Guardians, the 10,000 Wishes series, the Africa X UP and Chronicles of Olympus X UP franchises, the Chronicles of Olympus II duology with account-synced persistent multiplier trails, and the Big Bounty trilogy.
Alchemy positions itself as a math-first, craft-led studio under the tagline 'Method to the Magic', built around three pillars: inventive, quirky and calculated. Its content is distributed exclusively through Games Global's licence portfolio, covering the Malta Gaming Authority, UK Gambling Commission and other regulated European markets, reaching more than 900 of the world's top gaming brands.
