OMI Gaming

History and Founding

OMI Gaming was founded in Sweden in 2017 as a development consultancy serving the iGaming industry. The company initially built game technology and offered bespoke development services. By late 2017, it recognised the growing market demand for premium in-house content and transformed its core focus into a dedicated slot game studio. This pivot was driven by a desire to “be at the forefront of our industry” and produce “high end, top performing, triple‑A mobile and multi‑platform casino games that players will remember.”

Business Model and Philosophy

The studio’s design philosophy centres on world-class design, engaging gameplay, and features that “take things to the next level.” Its tagline “Proper games, solid maths” underscores a strong emphasis on sound mathematical modelling—a key attribute for operators seeking reliable, fair, and profitable slot content. OMI Gaming develops games for both mobile and multi-platform deployment, indicating a modern, cross-compatible technical stack. The company does not appear to license its own platform or aggregation service; it likely operates as a pure B2B content provider.

Product Portfolio

OMI Gaming’s confirmed product line includes three titles: - Polar Wilds™ – An Arctic-themed video slot with the Arctic Circles feature (transforms symbols into Wilds or awards multipliers up to 12x), Animals Locked Respins, and a Wolf Spirits Free Spins Bonus with four active Arctic Circles. - Lucky For You™ – A fixed 10-payline slot paying left-to-right and right-to-left. Features include two supermeter games (Fortune game 20 and Fortune game 100), stacked random multipliers (x2 to x25) on Wilds, a re‑spin feature with linked stops, double symbols enabling up to 10‑of‑a‑kind wins, and two Lucky Wheels. - The Cheshire Tree™ – A high-volatility 6-reel, 5-row slot with up to 2,985,984 ways to win. Includes Row Expansions (up to 12 rows), plus “The Rabbit” and “The Cheshire” mechanics (details not fully described on the site). No other products, platforms, or brands were found. The website does not list an aggregated game catalogue, roadmap, or operator integrations.

Market Position and Regulation

The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, partnership announcements, or licensing details. Its website does not mention any regulatory jurisdictions (e.g., Malta, UKGC, MGA), which is unusual for an iGaming studio and may indicate it is still in early stages or operates solely through third‑party aggregators. No independent news articles or third‑party analyses were found, suggesting a very low public profile. Competitors likely include other small independent slot studios, but no direct comparables were identified from the available data.

Leadership

Only one executive member is confirmed through verifiable sources: André Orefjärd, who serves as Founder and CEO. No other C-level executives (CTO, COO, CFO, CCO) were found in any public source, including the company’s own site, LinkedIn, or news articles. The company does not have an official LinkedIn page or team page beyond the founder reference. Headcount is not disclosed, but the operation appears modest.
