What this pokie is
Mottle Fen writes the Secret City Gold entry for this host. Pragmatic Play made it. Here2Win Casino is where it is played. The stake shows as NZ$.
Auckland or Dunedin sees the same pokie. Mottle Fen writes the facts once, on this URL.
Payments people in New Zealand already use, POLi among them, are handled inside the Here2Win Casino account. mottlefen.org never asks for them. The page can name the rail.
Studio
If the only question was who built Secret City Gold, the answer is Pragmatic Play. Mottle Fen does not localise the studio name.
888 Dragons sits with the other Pragmatic Play titles, as does 7 Monkeys.

Secret City Gold RTP (96.06%), house edge & 500-spin session math
Secret City Gold by Pragmatic Play returns a published 96.06% RTP (3.94% house edge) across a 5×3 / 5×4 HTML5 video grid layout and calls for a 250x–350x bankroll buffer in NZ$ at Here2Win Casino (here2win.com.au).
This Pragmatic Play release stands at -0.29 percentage points against the 96.35% studio average across 580 RTP-published titles (rank #464 of 580).
