Winlandia is a casino “with a Nordic twist” that is new to the UK; the owners have a long history in other geos.

About Winlandia

Winlandia has been in business since 2014 but not under that name. As Finlandia Casino, it has been operational in Finland under a Maltese licence. In summer 2023, the group announced that it was rebranding as Winlandia and expanding internationally; the UK is one of the first group of new geos they are entering (the others being Sweden, Denmark and Norway).

Winlandia uses the Skill On Net casino platform but is heavily customised and is very far from being just a skin.

Getting Started At Winlandia

To open an account at Winlandia, start by entering your mobile number and date of birth.
If you’ve already got an account at another Skill On Net casino there is no need to enter any further details (otherwise, you’ll need to give them your name, address and email). Next, create a username and password and confirm that you are over 18 and agree to the terms and conditions. You can also opt into all communications channels in one go at this stage if you so choose, or proceed to the next screen where you’ll see the individual options of email, SMS, phone, mail and web. Whatever you opt into at this stage, you can change your mind later on the Preferences page in your account.
Once you’ve confirmed all this you will have one minute to enter the 4 digit verification code that’s been sent by SMS and hit the Go Play button, but don’t worry if you run out of time as you can simply request a fresh code.

Slot Games At Winlandia

The Skill On Net games library boasts an astounding 5700 games and even though some of them are not slot games and not all are available in the UK, that is still a HUGE selection of thousands of games to choose from. In fact, it is almost too much choice given that there is not much game categorisation in the lobby – Recommended For You, Trending, Exclusive Slots, New Slots, Megaways, Popular Near You and All Slots. The games are listed in rough order of popularity based on the number of plays in the last 6 hours (which is visible in the lobby) so if you want to find any niche titles or hidden gems you’ll need to scroll a long, long way down or use the search box, which starts to return results when you’ve entered just two characters, on game providers as well as game names. For example, you can put in “bi” and the results include all of the Big Bass games, King Kong Cash Even Bigger Bananas and everything by Big Time Gaming. Once you spot a game you like, you can tap the little heart icon on the game tile (on a computer) or on the game information screen (on a mobile phone) to add it to the Favorites area in the main lobby.

Progressive jackpots at Winlandia give a flavour of the full range; they include Red Tiger’s Daily Jackpots, Blueprint’s Jackpot King, Relax Gaming Dream Drop, Age of the Gods and Power Play Jackpots by Playtech, Divine Fortune and Mega Fortune by NetEnt, IGT MegaJackpots and many jackpot slots by Eyecon, with jackpot sizes ranging from a few hundred pounds to millions – truly something for everyone.

Other Products At Winlandia

Some Skill On Net casinos have bingo rooms but Winlandia is not one of them; they do have a small handful of video bingo games.
The live casino at Winlandia has a particularly good range of games with both game shows and more traditional casino games supplied by Evolution, Playtech, Pragmatic Play, Authentic Gaming and others.
There’s also a selection of scratchcards by major game providers including scratchcard versions of classic games like Rainbow Riches, Age of the Gods and Wolf Gold.
Classified under Extra Games you’ll find crash games including Aviator, Spaceman and Big Bass Crash, and under Arcade are several of Hacksaw Gaming’s minesweeper style games.

What Else You Need To Know

Promotions at Winlandia are in line with what is available at other Skill On Net casinos:

Daily Picks, which are offers and promotions tailored to your play style
Tournaments, which run across the Skill On Net network
Rewards, which you may receive from the player rewards scheme

These are all easily accessible from the menu in the lobby (along with your account settings and account history).

Winlandia works equally well on a mobile phone and on a bigger screen. On a mobile phone, you swipe to see game tiles and lobby areas that are off screen to start, but once you choose to see everything in one section the display changes to two columns of game tiles. The menu to access promotions, account settings and so forth is on a floating bar at the bottom of the screen which is a bit more obvious than the usual hamburger menu. Touch a game tile on mobile to pop up the information screen and then touch Play Now to play the game.

Final Thoughts

Winlandia is a great looking casino with a fantastic selection of games and an OK range of deposit options and although their regular welcome offer isn’t great, our exclusive offer makes it well worth a visit.
