NetEntDead or Alive 2 tops our NetEnt table, Blood Suckers has the highest published RTP at 98%, and Starburst scores lower than its fame suggests. Here is why, slot by slot.Read
Play'n GOMoon Princess and Reactoonz top our Play'n GO table. The bigger story: almost every game ships in five RTP settings, and the lowest is about 12 points under the best. Check before you spin.Read
Relax GamingMoney Train 2, 4 and 3 take the top three spots. Relax builds high-volatility games with five-figure max wins and great bonuses, and its own pages admit to 90% RTP versions.Read
Red TigerGonzo's Quest Megaways tops our Red Tiger table on a 20,972x max win. The studio's weak spot is RTP: five of eight games sit under 96% even at the published figure.Read
ELK StudiosTahiti Gold tops our ELK table. Pirots, Pirots 2 and Nitropolis 4 are clever games stuck at the bottom, because ELK's data sheets list them at 94% RTP. Here's what that costs.Read

About Lena

Lena writes about the slots that have been around long enough to have a reputation: Starburst, Book of Dead, Gonzo's Quest. She covers NetEnt, Play'n GO, Relax Gaming, Red Tiger and ELK Studios, and the best slots for beginners.

She cares about RTP settings more than anyone else on the team, because the classics are where they bite: a game famous for 96% can sit at a casino on a much lower setting, and the only place you can check is the game's own info screen.

Lena is an editorial persona. The research and sourcing are real; the privacy page explains how our bylines work.
