Bacrest was founded in 1968 in Manchester London. It initially focused on producing hardware for land-based casinos, creating slot and bingo machines. Some of its most renowned cabinets are Genesis and Rio.

The company launched its first game, "Invader", in 1970. In the mid-1990s, Barcrest managed to produce over 40,000 machines in a year.

In 1998, Barcrest was acquired by International Game Technology (IGT). A couple of years later, in 2011, Scientific Games acquired it from IGT. The latter is nowadays best known as Light & Wonder.

Barcrest titles are recognized for their lively graphics, classic themes, and signature high-roller feature. Its portfolio exclusively comprizes video slots.

The Rainbow Riches slot, inspired by Irish folklore, stands out as Barcrest's most iconic release since its 2006 debut.

Its success has given rise to several sequels, such as Rainbow Riches: Pots of Gold and Rainbow Riches: Pick 'n' Mix.

For enthusiasts of this game, a dedicated Rainbow Riches website was established in 2019. It's under the umbrella of Gamesys, a branch of Scientific Games.

Moreover, Barcrest slots are HTML5 compatible. Not only that, but the developer has even redesigned some of its older releases, adapting them to mobile device technology. Thus, you can now find them in online Barcrest casinos.

One such example is the Ooh Aah Dracula slot, initially exclusive to slot cabinets. We think that this Dracula-themed game has a touch of funkiness that makes it feel quirky in a good way.

While Barcrest previously held a UKGC license, its operations now fall under the purview of parent company Scientific Games' licenses. You can obtain details on licensing from SG's official channels.
