Its not the skill based idea which gets me whether it was actually there or not, its the story and theme to a slot that really makes me come back or not.  Maybe the music & the overall style and feel to the game.  The gun fighters dead or alive was perhaps my favorite theme for a slot even if its still just luck and maybe my luck wasnt especially good on it.  Great setup for a game anyhow.

I still believe that slot games are purely luck based and skill is not required to win a slot game. Yes, the slot game can be developed in a way that appeals it is a skill based with all those sounds and animations but in the backend only luck matters in the end.

There is nothing in the article that gives a detailed explanation of how to develop skill in the slot, a luck-based game will remain a luck-based game so there is really no option to choose, because if there's a proven method for implementing a skill-based on slot or any other luck based game like dice, then the house edge will crumble and casino will eventually lose a lot of money, and they might even take down these once luck-based games.

Casinos can falsely claim that they have skill-based games on their platform and this could be done to grab the attention as gamblers usually have hard luck in winning, they would want to try a skill-based game but unfortunately, it would just be a hoax. There is no skill-based games in reality.

I prefer to play traditional slots, where the outcome of the game depends on luck rather than skill. If I want to test my strength I play poker or any other gambling game in which I have the opportunity to influence the outcome of each individual move. In my opinion slots is not a game to think. Slots is more of a quick gamble just for fun. 
For me, as long as slots is concerned, I often see it as a game of chance and luck, rather than skill. So whether it’s traditional or not, I believe skills never exist in it. But with what OP has stated, there might be really slot games that are skill based, and if they really exist in the casino, I don’t know and I’m not aware of that. But if there are any, then that’s the time I should start honing my skills as that will open another opportunity for me to be profitable in gambling.
The slot game is indeed a game of chance and luck, not skill. And even though there are different slots games and being a game of skill, I wonder what kind of skills a gambler must have to win. I think many of us are curious about what the slot game in question is like because so far, when we play slot games, it depends on our luck. If we don't get lucky, we will lose and vice versa. And when we know one type of slot game mentioned by @OP, we may learn how to use the skills referred to by @OP.

Which do you prefer, traditional slots or skill-based slots?



There is nothing in the article that gives a detailed explanation of how to develop skill in the slot, a luck-based game will remain a luck-based game so there is really no option to choose, because if there's a proven method for implementing a skill-based on slot or any other luck based game like dice, then the house edge will crumble and casino will eventually lose a lot of money, and they might even take down these once luck-based games.
House edge would always fucked us up and considering that slots have 5-10% HE according into this article
https://arstechnica.com/science/2019/10/study-busts-popular-myth-that-gamblers-can-sense-differences-in-house-edge/

Which means that if on dice games and other luck based games we do lost in long term runs then how much more on slot gaming?
There's no way that we could be able to make out some advantages on having that alteration or applying any strategies to
increase your winning odds.

There’s no know slot games like this available online. Most of this skill based slot machine is currently designed for physical slot machine. Online slot provider still doesn’t have any interest on producing this kind of game since the current pure RNG based slot games is popular.

I would love to try one of this slot games once I visit local casino. I think those who play on Vegas or huge casino with new tech slot machine are the only user that can give feedback on this game.

For the meantime, You can visit the link provided below for those interested to check what are sample games for this skill based slot.

https://betandbeat.com/slots/types/skill-based-slots/
I also have never come across this skill-based Slot game on any provider and maybe the Slot game provider chose the RNG base because it's simpler to apply to current Slot games across providers.
maybe some people consider this skill-based slot game one of the interesting games, but not for me.
after I read a few articles I didn't really like this type of slot and prefer RNG based slots to get a better experience.

I've never tried skill-based slot machines (never even knew they existed until today), but it does sound quite interesting. It actually does add an extra layer of excitement compared to traditional slots, as you can have some control over the outcome during bonus rounds and be more active when playing slot games. However, I am pretty much sure that the house still has an edge, so the odds aren't really in your favor and there are some sort of lucks involved in those games, or else skilled player could make those casinos go bankrupt. As for which I  would prefer, I'd say it depends on how I am feeling and what I want. If I'm looking for a more interactive experience and be more involved in the game, I'd go for skill-based slots. But if I just want to relax and try my luck, traditional slots would be more appealing.

based from the explanation of the article, i still don't know how it really works in actuality as i have never played one yet. when it comes to crypto casinos, i don't think they have this kind of slot machine already.
and definitely, there's still house edge on this game. casinos are here for businesss, so they won't just release a game that they will be bankrupt of.

They have the name Skill added to it but I don't see any skill can be applied on the slot to win the game, its just another round of spin so the chance matters here so its still zero skill and pure luck when it comes to slot. I think they use it to trick players by giving an extra round where the results are still going to be random and no skill to be applied with it.
There's no skill involved when you do pull out that level or pushing that roll button on which there's no way that you could be able to apply any strategy into it.This is why its not really that something possible to have this kind of skill based slot machine.If ever there's one would be created then i would be curious on how it would really be applied and it would be somewhat interesting if ever this one is possible.
I cant really think off on how this thing could really be that possible considering that slots are code generated and each roll is really something that it is really that totally random.
There's no way you could apply any tactics or ways on increasing your winning chance.
In the end, slots are still games of chance and luck. If ever there will be slot games that will be skill-based in the future, then maybe that’s something that we should look forward to but I can’t imagine as to how it will be possible. Slot games have nothing to do with skills, but if you can have the best luck when playing, you can always have the chance to increase your profits while increasing your chances of winning.

Today I am reading about skill based slot machines which is very popular among millennials. This is the first time I am reading this in my life as a gambler. All that I have known about slot machines is that the outcome is purely based on luck1 as a result of the Random number Generator (RGN). From what I read, the major difference between this skill based slot machines and the regular/traditional ones we know is that there is a bonus round for the players to2 display their skills which gives them a greater chance of winning. Despite this, the odds are still stacked up against the player.
Has anyone here tried it out?
Which do you prefer, traditional slots or skill-based slots?

1. http://bostonsportsextra.com/skill-based-slot-machines-what-are-they-and-how-they-work/
2. http://web.archive.org/slot1.sbs/76959.html


I already know that there is a skill-based slot machine where the game depends on the skill of the player to time when to stop the spin to be able to win a higher prize.  I long search for this kind of game but failed to because it isn't available on the platform where I am playing.

I think providers is avoiding this kind of game because it will incur a heavy loss to the casino once the player gets comfortable with the game.  Just like how every casino ban card counting, this maybe the case for skill-based slots.

Probably that will be one reason that it will be welcome, because there is some excitement as compare to traditional based slot machines, although I must say that traditional is also very exciting but addicted as well.

Just search this skill based game,

It's a brick sort of games, so yeah you need some skills if you want to make money in this kind of games.

Have heard about traditional slot and skill based slot machine but to be candid i have not really participated in any of the above.
But the monent i came across this topic i proceeded on a research to have more knowledgd on them and from my findings i perceived that traditional slot has a fantastic merits like the convinience, privacy, flexible, easy to pay. To mention but a few. And the comprehension of it is easy.
So if am to choose i d' rather go for traditional slot than the skill based machine.
Traditional slot can mean slots that is find on a brick and mortar casino but skill-based slot must be a new invention and mainly exist in the online world therefore skill-based slots are the ones that are more private especially if the casino that has this game supports crypto payment methods and then they don't require users to pass KYC.

Online games are also the ones who are more convenient, flexible and easy to pay. If there is any advantage of the traditional slot games then that is they are more fun because you can see other people around, there is that background noise and maybe some of them will watch how you play and they will cheer up for you.

So, skill-based slots, huh? I suppose it's high time those millennials put their video game prowess to work. Who requires fortune when you've got insane abilities, am I right? However, let's face it, the odds remain in favor of the house, and no level of talent can alter that reality.

But hey, don't get too down. The emergence of skill-based slot machines signifies the gambling world's evolution and adaptation to shifting times. It's captivating to observe how tech is transforming our wagering habits. Maybe in a few years, we'll see VR slot machines transporting us on mind-bending journeys through alternate realms.

When it comes to my preference between traditional or skill-based slots, I say, why pick sides? Let's revel in both universes! Spice things up, alternate, and let luck and skill live together in flawless harmony. Gambling's all about enjoyment and taking chances, so why not combine a pinch of luck with a dash of skill?
It's probably true that it wouldn't really increase the odds for players to win more but will only provide a chance for them to increase their chances of getting more bonus spins or maybe higher multipliers, we are yet to know what kind of rules the bonus rounds or the games will have, but at the end of the day, it's still a casino game and they don't always favor the gambler.

And you are right that both normal and skill-based slots should be used side by side, and platforms should include both options for players to try, and they will choose which one they like more.

So this means that it multiplies your percentage of winning; let's say if you win in the bonus round, your percentage will be doubled or something like that. Well, it is good and it is an advantage to those who love slots since they can increase their chance of winning, but has this been implemented already, like what kind of bonus rounds we are now seeing? I am not a fan of slots, but I do sometimes play the traditional ones, and I would say it is very impossible to win.
Probably, if you have more skills on the kind of slot games you played, that will increase your chances of winning. If not, then just try your luck then. Although I have not tried this one, as I’m not actually a slots lover, but sounds interesting if this is the case. Maybe I should try this skill-based slot machines if there are any, as I’m actually used to the fact that slots are just pure luck, and skills have nothing to do with it.

How about a slot machine with a pinball element to it, I doubt that exists but it should as that would surely qualify as a skill based game.   I can faintly remember something kinda like that but its an unlikely combo because it would have to be flat and take more floorspace possibly.

That's a game that can be said to be vintage if you call it, that's the age of the game. I used to play it on the family computer when I was young and I had no idea that it was possible in a casino.

But in what OP posted, the game flow system in the slot is a little different, although I don't see anything bad or difficult about that.

I think they use it to trick players by giving an extra round where the results are still going to be random and no skill to be applied with it.

Skill is something you applied based on your study to come out with the desired results I don't see it here it's still random you still have to rely on luck so where is skill comes to play here, I cannot imagine luck-based games turning into skill-based games, with players employing a consistent method to win, because luck-based games are casinos' bread and butter, will they allow that?
It's a game-changer for the casino industry and it will turn the tide against casinos, the casinos can lose their business.

I'm in the same boat, I don't get clear why they are called skill slots, I mean, the guys who are stronger or faster win versus other guys? or win more on the slot machine? and the answer is no. So, I don't get clear why this is called skill-based slots. These kinds of slots are based on luck, just like the other ones. But the skill is not a fact that will make us win more.

I would like to see Chess slot based, which would be a skill slot, but not a game in that you place the bet and the outcome is the result of a random number.

Pinball element? on what sense for it to be applied? It isnt really still that skill based on which i dont see if ever it would really be that relevant for this type of game for it to be combo'ed out.

Just like the rest been saying that i dont see the relevance or the actual connection in between slots and skill based ones on how you would be able to increase your winning rate or chance?

If there are companies or upcoming owners who do make out such new idea and make out this kind of application then it would be great and good to look on how
it would be done and if it do ends up on being interesting then this is the first who would really be getting huge marketshare.
I think it can be good idea to combine two different games. One would be luck based game like slots. And other one would involve skill. Pinball isn't bad idea. I think short game of cards could be added even. This could multiply rewards as you pass through skill based game, you may earn a shot of luck based one. Honestly gambling businesses are too traditional. Noone experiments with different ideas. So this is mainly why young people care more about video games but not care about traditional games.
If ever this one could be possible or would be made out then it is the first on the market and if it does really show off some good entertainment then it would really be creating a noise.We havent seen anything

something like this on which i do say that it isnt really that appealing on combining both things slots+pinball.If ever there are ones who do make this idea to be real and applied then lets see on how the

gambling community would really be reacting into it and seeing whether it would be interesting one or would really be just that a shit game to deal since it is really just the same
in overall concept.

Slot machines that use skill are less common than those that use traditional slots. The majority of the casinos I've visited only offer the conventional ones.
As someone who is accustomed to playing traditional slots, I believe that skill-based slots are less enjoyable. Which would be more addictive? I have no idea. Perhaps skill-based slots, as they make players feel that they need to exert more effort and lead them to believe that they will "play harder" the next time. They keep returning, and before you realize it, they have been addicted. Please direct me there if you know of any online casinos that include slots that require skill.

Well, that's the problem. that we don't know which slot machines require skill. I'm pretty sure, most of us just found out that there are slot machines that are skill based. although the thread the OP shared, is an old thread. I mean, the article was posted since last 2021. but actually, we just read it and know it. to be honest, I can't say which one is more addictive. then, are you familiar with skill-based slot machines. well, because that also makes my curiosity higher to find out. is the slot game interesting, or.

IMO, most likely, that skill-based slots are still in the planning or development stages. which is possible, has the potential to be adopted by casino platforms in their innovation projects related to slot machines. I think otherwise with you, I'm not talking about addiction. what intrigued me, what games would they offer.
