About

Origins and the PopWins mechanic

Founded in 2018 and headquartered in Birkirkara, Malta, with a development studio in Hong Kong, AvatarUX set out to build slots around a single, ownable idea. That idea became PopWins™, the studio's signature mechanic, in which winning symbols "pop" and split to unlock additional reel positions — pushing the number of ways to win up to 59,049 within a single spin.

The mechanic has since been iterated repeatedly, spawning variants such as MultiPop, StickyPop and ZapReel, which keep the core feel familiar while giving each release its own twist on volatility and pacing.

The Yggdrasil partnership

AvatarUX joined Yggdrasil's YG Masters programme, distributing content through Yggdrasil's GATI technology and marketing reach. The relationship gave a young studio immediate distribution muscle and helped the "Pop" games find audiences well beyond their size would normally allow.

Catalogue and style

The catalogue runs to more than 30 video slots, almost all built around PopWins and pitched at the higher end of the volatility scale, with bold, cartoon-forward art directed squarely at social and streaming audiences.

Flagship titles include CherryPop, TikiPop, HippoPop, BountyPop, PopRocks and WildPops — games that have become shorthand for the studio's high-risk, high-reward, meme-ready identity.

Why operators choose them

  • Instantly recognisable brand: the "Pop" series carries strong name recognition with streamer and crypto audiences, doing marketing work before you spend on it.
  • High-volatility maths and large max wins suit big-win clip culture and player-driven virality.
  • Compact, quality-first catalogue — easy to merchandise without diluting your lobby.
  • Delivered through SoftVault's single integration, so there is no direct AvatarUX contract, no extra wallet and no separate reconciliation.
