Smiley Exactly that happened, I got carried away with the tome of madness, I wanted to hit that bonus, you need to fill the bar on the left with 42 hits! Few times I had 41 and I needed any hit just to get to that bonus, but I didn't have luck! With wilds and those books on the board I was really close, but no luck for me!
Been there and done that.

Yesterday is my lucky day I think, I triggered a bonus round on the Tomb of Nefertiti and Erik the Red in less than 50 spins.

I see you win the prize guess the slot! Very nice man, congrats! Smiley So there we wait for Hhampuz to open that level 5?
Yeah, I've won multiple times already.

It's here mate: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/roobetcom-guess-the-slot-11-200-prize-pool-level-5-5256418

I tried princes royal and I didn't like it much, classical slot, I like when there're more lines and to be more colorful.
The list was about "Guess the Slot" game, so we can't expect much of gameplay.
In case you interested: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/roobetcom-guess-the-slot-10-200-prize-pool-level-4-5255888

If about recommended slots, it's at the bottom part of this OP. See Starburst et al.

My favorite slots are from betsoft (don't say anything about that), but on betsoft slots I had the highest wins, and from all providers for me betsoft offers the best games.
I'm not familiar with it. Perhaps streamers don't play on casinos that support Betsoft.

Reactoonz, tome of madness, devils world, book of dead, testament
Noted, Reactoonz already on the "community pick" list.

I hope you didn't get zeroed though Grin

Not a bad site, nice games. I had a nice morning with their roulette, towers, I played monopoly for a while. Of course most of the money went to slots. I lost first deposit and I made a second one.

I didn't play play'n go slots before, and I found a few slots that I like (that's why I made second deposit). Reactoonz, tome of madness, devils world, book of dead, testament are some games I played, and I played with half a dollar and dollars bet. In one moment I went high and then all the way to the bottom Smiley

Today I am free, so I can have fun! Smiley Interesting slots, and I hope I will win something, my second deposit is already there. Wish me luck! Smiley

most of the slots you like to play are for fiat, not for crypto (at least the ones I tried to play).
Are these slots on Roobet for bitcoins? I would try your recommendation if they are for btc.
It depends on the slots operator since not all of them directly accept BTC. For example (from what I remember), NoLimit City and Pragmatic Play directly accept BTC bet. However, that does not really matter because, in some casinos, players will be allowed to play with their dollar amount of BTC.

Let's say a player makes a deposit of 0.005 BTC ($50) and wants to play on a slot that doesn't directly accept BTC. He still can play with his $50. Every time he bet (let's say) $1 the system will convert his 0.0001 BTC into $1 and "spin it." When he wins (for example) x20, the system will take his $20 and convert it again into 0.002 BTC. Since this happens in nearly instant, the player can expect minimum "trading loss" because of it.

Edit: the player also withdraws in BTC.

Anyways, I haven't calculated the exact number of this convert things, I might be able to provide more information after this weekend, or you can calculate by yourself.

I never played on this site, so I will gladly be your referral, you can pm referral link if you want and you have account there (I hope Roobet has referral program).
Sure, I'll PM you Smiley

I like to try new slots, and after following you for a while I decided to do something, finally!
Don't follow me mate since every man is a sinner! LoL

Glad you enjoy my thread and you always welcome to post here, about which slots you love the most.

Roobet's "Guess the Slot" until 8th round:
- Devil's Number
- Money Train
- Black River Gold
- Book of Sun: Multi Chance
- Princess Royal
- Tahiti Gold
- Ocean's Fortune
- Erik the Red

Try these slots if you have time  Wink For me, however, I recommend Princess Royal & Erik the Red, except you want to play on low RTP games.

I am not already good at strategy. But at least it's a resource to help you decide which game I can win.
Actually, my thread is about the gameplay, not about the "earn money online" stuff since popular mainstream slots game are "centralized," have high HE, and no way you can verify the fairness. However, if you "won't cry if you lose your gambling budget," then you can taste these games.

Even better, if someone can deploy provably fair slots that have much fun and animations, there are many marvelous slots listed on OP that they can "copy."

There is no real strategy in slots although your tips are great for beginners.I like playing slots in which the bonus feature falls often in the reels.If this is paired with some extra like making your bet multiply up to 100 or wilds becoming a full figure in the three reels this is even better.As for the RTP almost all big slot providers offer more than 95-96% for the players.

I try these slot games for luck for years, but I have never seen such a wide guide before. This topic will remain a great resource for my future bets.
I think it has been a great guide for newbie.

am I the only one who finds high variance slots can be much less money burner ?
kinda find that if someone plays low variance slots that has frequent low wins tends to lose more for simply not winning enough of money even with same RTP , like if you win 200x or something similar you may just keep wagering and wagering  ( 200x of spin of course not bankroll  Cheesy )

while in high variance slots you will either lose fast or win big at someday , and usually when someone hits big he will make a cashout instantly unlike the hits with low variance ones
so you kinda save your luck for the big hits to cashout , while with low variance players tend to play much more and wager more amount of money

probably that's why I like jammin jars and dead or alive 2 but I rarely play slots

I agree, higher payout ratios with less variane is definitely more relaxed to play. I played slot machines in Europe and in USA and prefer the ones in the States much more. The buy in is not as high and also the variance seems overall lower. So in the end it's more time you can play.

And in Europe, if you only play a couple of rounds and all your money is gone, it's kinda sad. I would never expect a huge win from a slot machine it's more about fun playing the game.

Playing slots is always a nice way to get rid of your pocket change

^Thanks @buwaytress, the problem (or perhaps the blessing) with the "original" crypto casino with provably fair and stuff is that they put too much focus on the fairness of the slots. Unlike big operator slots, they designed their game to be highly addictive entertaining so that "ordinary" gamblers are just don't care if they are losing money every night.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bny1qgKO46A

If you didn't play slots then it's great since most likely you'll be addicted if you play Smiley
The good thing is, these highly addictive slots games can be played without any real money, it helps a lot IMO to overcome slots addiction.

Yea I tried BitVest slots years ago and too complicated for my style, but I'll put it on OP if more members like it.

I know this doesn't apply to slots online with RNG but I was told that some operators design their slots to collect a Jackpot and then as it gets higher, the chance to hit it also becomes higher. Because in the long run, they want people to win the jackpot and encourage more people to play it.

This is different from online where Jackpot is based on size of bet, right?
AFAIK the chance hitting jackpot will remain the same, but the value in it will grow since it takes some portion of HE into the pot. The more people bet, the more it will grow.

Maybe @Bitinity can tell more since he seems to like Mega Moolah.

Nice thread OP! First of all, I'd like to say I don't play slots. When I do, it's just for a few satoshi at a time, or if it's free spins.

But slots is truly, for me, the underrated game on crypto casinos. I know people disagree with me (I've had this conversation) but it has yet to fully evolve to fulfil potential. Remember that Space cadet pinball machine game on Windows? It was a normal pinball but it had missions allocated into it, so involved some level of skill. I always imagined a really good slot game could incorporate story and puzzle elements (which is why I voted for Puzzle) and even XP settings, where you can upgrade skills and tactics. Anyway, I digress.

I think the list should include all those crypto gambling sites who've spent time to design their own original slots. Personally, I think Bitvest's slots was one of the originals in that you could set up your own winning lines.

Some of the best minimalist slot games I can recall Bulletproof Babes... but the same developers bombed with a really odd striptease slot A Night with Cleo, which is actually worse than the 1980s Strip Poker.

^Obviously exploration vs exploitation is an interesting topic, but I'm not sure if the problem will still be relevant with a random number generator in modern slots. Hence:

Strategy

(5) You don't have to stay in the same game and waste all of your money there. Remember, the probability of winning the next spin will remain the same.

This is the most general advice in slots since you don't have to do a statistical analysis while playing.

Most of people have no clue about that but there are important mathematical researchs about the N-armed bandit problem

Quote
In the problem, each machine provides a random reward from a probability distribution specific to that machine. The objective of the gambler is to maximize the sum of rewards earned through a sequence of lever pulls.[3][4] The crucial tradeoff the gambler faces at each trial is between "exploitation" of the machine that has the highest expected payoff and "exploration" to get more information about the expected payoffs of the other machines. The trade-off between exploration and exploitation is also faced in machine learning. In practice, multi-armed bandits have been used to model problems such as managing research projects in a large organization like a science foundation or a pharmaceutical company.[3][4] In early versions of the problem, the gambler begins with no initial knowledge about the machines.

are you only concentrating on Slot games in Brick n Mortar (land based) casinos or do you include games that are being used in online gambling sites too?
Online, since I (and slots lovers here) cannot try it talk about it if it's offline/local stuff.

Slots in Stake.com.
Added in "community pick," I don't know about its RTP and volatility though, any info guys?
Usually, slots games with modest graphics/animations have high RTPs.

(Games like Gonzos-Quest & Good Girl/Bad Girl & It came from Venus and 3D slot games)
*Gonzo's Quest (95.97% - Med/High);
*Good Girl Bad Girl (97.79% - Med) and It Came From Venus (95.8% - Med) need Flash Player... These games look too old mate.

I'll add Gonzo if more people mention it Tongue

I just want to check something quickly... are you only concentrating on Slot games in Brick n Mortar (land based) casinos or do you include games that are being used in online gambling sites too? The reason why I am asking, is because some of the online gambling sites are setting their own house edge on their games, for example the Slots in Stake.com.

I like the games being developed by NetEnd and Betsoft. (Games like Gonzos-Quest & Good Girl/Bad Girl & It came from Venus and 3D slot games)  Grin  I do not have a specific strategy, other than just playing for the bonus and just enjoying the sights and sounds.  Wink

If they are linked to a Progressive Jackpot, then I enjoy it a little bit more.  Grin
