Whether we were writing lines of code for pinball games, animating bulky pixels in the 80’s, making our mark on popular culture with hits like Golden Tee® Golf, or taking a leap of faith by entering the casino gaming market - IT was always all about the game. Our players may have changed over the years, but our vision has not and our continued commitment to innovation is a testament to that fact. Every single game, cabinet and piece of hardware is an extension of the dedicated people who create and stand behind them. This is our incredible vision.
