What innovation are you still looking for in a slot game? As far as I know, a slot game is played just the way it is in every casino site and actual place. Maybe what you were saying is some sort of tweak about the way how the game is played? Like having the very same concept of slot games but actually having a different set of rules and how to win the prizes so that the game would pique the interest of the players. This could work as it could encourage the players to know more about how it works and be caught up in mastering it in the long run. Since as we all know, a game like a slot game is a repetitive game of luck that is just played by most because it is easy and requires little effort to play. Maybe some are playing it for the entertainment it brings, but I guess most just play it for the prize. So it would be a 50/50 scenario.

Can someone give us an example of a Slot that introduced something new and innovative in the game dynamics and engine lately? Please mention the game and what was new and innovative.  Wink
I haven’t seen any for a while now and maybe the slots game are really meant to play like this. Are you thinking to play slots the other way? Maybe you can suggest that to a gambling since most of the new gambling site offers the same slot games. Though we’d like innovations but if its still a slot games I guess the result is still the same and house still has the edge over the gamblers.

Yes, may I ask the OP what kind of innovation is he thinking here about slots? Because if he is looking for some kind of changes, then, what is it then? He maybe thinking of something but when it comes to slots, I don't think there will be a new revolutionary idea that will come to this luck-based game. I don't think these providers will start from scratch and invent something else. They will just recycle and maybe modify a lil bit but still the same slots.

The type of innovation that I am talking about, is something like this :

Imagine a series of Slots that link into each other to form one gigantic "Puzzle" that needs to be solved as new Slots are released. So you get a piece of the puzzle (like the Wonka bars in the Willy Wonka Movie) and you have to play all these different Slots to collect these "Wonka bars" to win the giant Jackpot at the end of the year.  Wink

You can also have Slots that play like an adventure game, where you search for items in the different games and that unlocks "Easter Eggs" within the Slot.. that you do not get if you just play for a couple of hours. (Each of these eggs unlocks special bonus features)

It will take out the repetitive nature of these Slot games and add some challenge to it... which is lacking in most Slots.  Wink

Not sure if there is still new innovation that can draw the interest of players.

Perhaps there is one, but still it boils down as how it is going to attract slot players because playing them is just basic, you just have to understand how it works and what is the draw line and what characters will be the bonus for a particular game. So it's hard to reinvent the wheel for slot machines because we have seen them all.

I still think there are new ideas but there are downsides, I remember trying out that one unique slot where the gameplay is similar to dx ball but I didn't like it as the HE was way too high (~7%) than the regular slots. I don't know the game but it was mentioned in the bitcasino thread as they post articles about different slot games from time to time.

Once new games come out in the near future I think the third-party providers will try to integrate them and slowly introduce new features like those progression bars when you hit losing streaks.

Slot is pretty straightforward so I don't see any possible change or innovation in slots, just variations and difference in prices, I think it's even impossible to think of a way to innovate slots that's going to benefit both the slot owner and the player.
Slot been popular as the way it is and if ever there will be an innovation for it , it may be introduced as other game other than as slot as people been into slot for along time and the ideas might already tried many times, it’s quite hard to incorporate any new ideas to a game been love by many. It like a classic game that every gamblers still play even there are already lot of games to play with.
We know that slots have many interfaces that can make people curious about the game, although they already knew that is a slot game that is based on luck but still, that can make them curious. Not many changes from the slot game itself as that is a classic game that has its fan and still is one favourite of the gambling games that people already played. Maybe the prizes, the amount to bet, the interface, or the rules that will be changed but the main core of the game is not changing.

To be sure, if there are any new innovations in slots, I believe they will become popular in all casinos or slot machines. However, I believe that the slot machine is already excellent, and I do not wish to improve it because doing so would complicate the game, and as a gambler, I prefer to gamble with simple rules or with just one click and then waiting to be a winner. Also, the idea of improving slots will cause the rules or playstyle to change, which I believe would be unpopular with gamblers, so I would prefer it to remain as a slot with nothing else added to make it more appealing.

Is there still any real original ideas for Slots? Can someone still develop something new and innovative and how can we (gamblers) give our inputs in the development of what we want in Slots?



Imagine if Elon Musk designed and engineered a slot machine. It would have a sunroof on it.

The basic format and payout distribution of slots is easy to adjust. I'm not certain that's something people do comparison shopping on, or pay much attention to. And so that approach could have limited potential.

The next innovation of slots could be things like. Offering ports for free cellphone charging. Free WIFI. Next to a slot machine. People play slots as they wait for their phone to charge or use the free WIFI access.

Mobile gaming seems like a big and growing market which could be targeted by slot apps. Incentives, bonuses and extras could matter more than the basic mechanics of slot machines. Of course there is always room for growth and improvement, until the day comes when someone builds something that is perfect.

The system slot feature is always like that

But, how to trigger that is really unique. I like how "No Limit" always have new slot with new situation for the trigger you are mention like (Dassboat, Mental Ilness) this slot is great by how the system is works. IMO, I don't think this is some issue we all know the worst slot is always be Pragmatic Play & PlayNGo because they always have the same payout but people still love them because is to easy calculated estimation you are hitting bonus.

Probably new games on slots but the concept is still the same because this is how the slots game works and if you’re talking about innovation, it might not be the slots game anymore. I’ve seen many site introduce their own game like the spin game, crash game, and many more aside from the slots so if OP is looking for a more entertainment games the don’t play slots, because casinos can’t innovate slots as this game is in favor to them most of the time.

If someone will create another slot game out of the original feature, it was not a Slot game anymore. That is why nobody is able to make another one but to retain what is in the original.

Honestly, it was best to make a different game without copying others, that seems to be an innovative idea, I think. As people are already familiar with this game, the more it gives the advantage to them.

I think it may have been possible to add new changes to slot games like combining two games kind of thing but the problem is what game is it?. Yes, you are correct that slot is pretty straightforward and what I mostly noticed is the graphics, sounds, payments and names. Even if the name is different but the game the same.
If there would be some new possible ideas or innovation then game providers wont really be telling it and would compete out for that new

idea or something new in regards with this game which is i do agree that it is straight forward and i cant think off any possible add up

because slots are just really the same in terms of gameplay and whats the outcome should really reach out or hit for you to win the game.
They differ in design,images etc and as said they are still the same.

I am looking at the weekly releases of NEW Slot games from third party providers and I am not seeing any NEW creative and innovative Slot games being released. A lot of these games are re-hashed games from previous releases and they feature the same game dynamic with a little change on the background and the tiles.

They reuse xSplits / Xways / xNudge / Gigablox / Xpanding Wilds / Megaways / Hold and Win.... etc. etc... with new themes and new graphics with every new Slot that are released... and then call it ...."Name of Slot  + Extended"  Roll Eyes

Is there still any real original ideas for Slots? Can someone still develop something new and innovative and how can we (gamblers) give our inputs in the development of what we want in Slots?

Slots have been around for a relatively long time now and you have to imagine that gambling institutions put a lot of money into these sort of games that drain the bank accounts of their customers. At the very heart of it however is the fact that you have one or lost before you've even clicked the button to play. For this type of game all the outcomes can be predetermined by the house depending on how many winnings they've already paid out that hour/day/week in order to help them make the profit they desire. The slots are simply a front of flashy graphics and enticing trigger sounds that are trying to build habit forming behavior so you will keep returning. The interface is the only real variation but the input from the user is all an illusion anyway.

Slot machines are a very old invention. 

In my opinion, one should not expect any revolutionary innovations in relation to it.  Everything was invented a long time ago.  It is not profitable for slot machine manufacturers to experiment.  This requires additional investment. 

At the same time, the potential profit is minimal, and the risks are large. 

The next step in the development of slot machines is associated with virtual reality. 

The symbiosis of virtual reality and slot machines means new games, new ideas, new rules of game interaction.
