For those who have played slots online, either for fun or for money, surely you have come across games from two of the most popular slot game creators on the market today. Pragmatic and Hacksaw have led the way in terms of creating innovative, fun, and exciting slot games that are played by a large majority of players who play online, and are consistently featured in some of the biggest slot streamers online, including Trainwreck, Roshtein, Toaster, and others.

Pragmatic is famous for many popular franchaises as they have created multiple games out of the same set-up:
Dog House
Gates of Olympus
Sweet Bonanza
Sugar Rush

Pragmatic has come up with the Super Bonus concept, where players can pay typically 500X the base game bet for a hyped up version of the existing bonus game, which allows players to reach max wins easier - by risking much more up front.

Hacksaw tends to focus on unique games and themes, while giving players a different experience with each game. Some of their popular games include:
Wanted Dead or a Wild
Chaos Crew
Le Bandit
Hand of Anubis

They too however have resorted to updating some of these games like Pragmatic has done, like Chaos Crew and Le Bandit. For their part, Hacksaw also has super bonuses, but they tend to enhance the existing bonus game - for example, Le Bandit you can buy a bigger bonus that allows you to keep all gold squares throughout the spins, allowing you to hit bigger wins with later rainbows.

The debate has raged on - which one has the superior franchise of games - Pragmatic or Hacksaw.

What say you? Which one do you think is better? Have you hit any massive bonuses on any of these games, and are there games you want to try out??

Neither of these really ring a bell. I've mostly come across Playtech and Skywind.
But how would we even compare those? Are the ones better that make us tilt less when we lose ;)

I played several times at GG Casino, and for some reason, in most cases, I noticed that I was playing slots from the manufacturer Pragmatic. I didn't pay much attention to it. I won a few times and lost a few times. I can't say that I was particularly impressed by these slots, which seemed quite ordinary to me.

I played a few free spins in some Pragmatic Play games and liked what I saw, but haven't gotten into any serious play yet.

Good thing about both pragmatic and hacksaw is that most of their slots have bonus bet available (eventhough sometimes this feature might be looked as scam bet should it not give bonus(es) at all and/or only teases a little bit - if even that)

Pragmatic also seems to have way too many fish related games - i am not sure how many big bass slots they have by now so i just estimate it's 20+ although one thing is certain - all of them are useless (especially should you see expensive fish but have no sign of fisherman who could collect it) ...

Hacksaw is probably doing their best to catch them on that front since they have way too many Le slots like OP's mentioned Le Bandit, Le King, Le Pharaoh and probably many more which i probably forgot.

As for all the slots named in OP ^ i should imagine that i pretty much have played Chaos Crew 2 the most and if i remember correctly then some months ago won 1000x or so there ...

I only play online and have never paid attention to which company created a particular game. I generally think that even if there are two main companies that develop such software for gambling, the games themselves can be very different, and I think that first and foremost, it is worth paying attention to the game itself and its features, and who creates the games is not that important :)

The debate has raged on - which one has the superior franchise of games - Pragmatic or Hacksaw.

I'm probably the most ignorant member here about Slots.
But since the merger, I found myself learning a lot, maybe too much ;), about something I always considered as the most dangerous form of gambling in casinos.
However, and surprisingly, I also learn that some people take Slots seriously and even make money out of them.

As to who has the superior franchise, I'm really the last person to be asked that question. I have absolutely no clue. But while I was reading the post, the word "Playtech" came to my mind. Sometimes when I used to play the free spins PS gives on the weekends, some of them showed it while loading. Is it like Pragmatic and Hacksaw? Or am I completely out of it?

For me, Pragmatic is definitely the best, since I often play it myself. I don’t play Hacksaw, but I often saw streamers playing from the side and I didn’t like it)

I can't say that I have a favourite among the creators. Each of these developers has their own unique games, but at the same time, it's a matter of personal preference. For example, I most often play Book of Dead, which, as far as I know, was created by Play'n GO. But I also like games from developers such as Pragmatic and Hacksaw.

Yesss I also play book of dead. Its my favorite slot and one of the reasons is that it allows you to bet very low amounts of money.
