Born in the American south but with tendrils that spread across the Atlantic and into the US and beyond, Blueprint Gaming have proved themselves to be a successful and diverse gaming manufacturer since they were born in 2001.
Although they have a reputation for some excellent land-based games, Blueprint also have an impressive range of online and mobile slots in their arsenal.
Let's take a closer look at why Blueprint are writing the - erm - blueprint for a successful online gaming developer in 2015.
A leading supplier of gaming machines and online slots, Blueprint are as adept at manufacturing touchscreen slots terminals for European casinos as they are slots games in their own right.
They began life in Atlanta, Georgia back in 2001, but the German Gauselmann Group (who also own Merkur Gaming) bought a 50% share 7 years later. With the new partnership with one of the most-respected manufacturers of gaming machines in Europe, Blueprint are able to offer products for the British and world markets.
The 'Vision Casino' and 'Vision Slant Top' series of machines feature 22" HD interactive touchscreens for casinos and pubs, so chances are you've spotted one of Blueprint/Gauselmann's games in a casino somewhere at some time.
As well as land-based machines, Blueprint also develop online and mobile slots. Although they can range from the AWP/Classic (Super Wild Bar X, Super Spins Bar X Gold) they have also brought out a range of decent 3D titles like Wish Upon a Jackpot and Zuma. Most Blueprint games are integrated into their partner Openbet's unique platform.
