Tim Ricksonis a leading British slots and apps reviewer with unparalleled depth of analysis of both game mechanics and platforms. As a former lead slot optimisation specialist at Evolution Gaming and NetEnt (2012-2022), he directly developed performance updates for over 1,800 games, increasing mobile popularity metrics by 28% using his own A/B testing systems. He holds a bachelor's degree in software engineering from the University of Edinburgh, an iGaming Academy certificate in “Slot Integration Across Platforms and Latency Analysis,” a Level 5 diploma in Responsible Gaming from the University of Gibraltar, a UKGC certificate in App Security and Fairness, and has completed BeGambleAware Digital Nudge training. Tim currently uses his own tool, SpinFlow Auditor, which logs over 500,000 automatic spins per game to assess the accuracy of reel synchronization, application failure thresholds under network load, bonus fairness, and built-in tools such as proactive cooling prompts. Only UK-licensed slots and applications that meet his two-tier requirements for fairness and usability receive his approval.
