Indeed. Giving a bonus or free bet can attract them back to the casino and play more gambling games. Some casinos still giving that as a bonus for active gamblers or gamblers who already deposit with some amount. If that is about promotion, the casino will always send many offers to people who subscribe to their site to know what events will happen.

If the casino can update with the latest info or have many new gambling games, that can also attract gamblers attention to come back and play on that game.

Gambling games become even more interesting if given a bonus, this does look simple but has proven to be effective. Will make gamblers continue
to play in the gambling game, because gamblers want to be able to get the bonus given. Another thing gambling sites have to do to be able to attract
the attention of gamblers, of course by means of regular promotions. The promotion must be done in a unique way too, in order to make gamblers
curious, and finally interested in playing gambling in the games offered.

Maybe the casino will make an event every week or bi-week to give more chances to gamblers to get more than usual. The casino really knows how to make a gambler satisfy and come back to them and make sure to serve them better. Yes, once a gambler attracts and feels satisfied, they will come back and use more money to play gambling. If they do that, the casino will treat them and maybe give more bonuses for their deposit.

Some casinos are already doing what you say, by holding regular events, then give a bonus to gamblers who make a deposit with a certain
amount. Therefore there are several casinos that can still run for a long time, even though there are a lot of competitors emerging. That's because
the casino already understands how to satisfy gamblers, because gamblers will continue to play at the casino if they are satisfied with what
the casino provides. If gamblers are comfortable with the casino, usually gamblers don't mind spending a lot of money at the casino.

Players satisfaction on where these kind of businesses do really focus on and despite on having lots of competitors then you can really those casinos who do able to handle out the business
those perks and bonuses are just typical to be found and its impossible for a gambling site on not to offer, it would just matter in the difference on how generous or good it would be
for the gamblers because people do usually get hooked if they do saw some good deal into other places compared into the current place they are playing on.
So its a matter of peoples choice and only the best one would really be able to sustain for that long.

It is now a big trend have you heard or read Axie infinity, people now can make money playing and breeding their online pets and it's not few bucks there are people who are making thousands of dollars playing this game, the design is not that great but people are attracted to this kind of game because of people posting their payout proof,

Yes, compared to other games, the design and layout of Axie Infinity are not that great and I doubt it will get the interest of other people if it has no play-to-earn feature. But because of its gameplay especially the feature to earn real money, it hooked those people even with no knowledge at all to crypto and those who aren't interested in playing an online game.

Only gamers will be hooked on those usual games, as they should be. But for other people to get involved, they need a big reason why should they play a certain game, and mostly, they want a profitable game on which these blockchain games made possible.

Dont know on why axie infinity is been in talks on here because this isnt gambling but rather a play to earn thing but of course there are some investment needed for those managers and breeders.

I wont say that its design and gameplay is shit because it is way more better than on other games out there and of course the earning opportunity is there which is the main thing.

Hooking up people neither on gambling or any games out there would always be looking on the design and good user experience for them to stay.

I am asking this because I do have some short of an answer for videogames and for massive multiplayer games and even for social network oriented games. Videogames require a great design, good difficulty grading, an story that engages the user, massive multiplayer and network oriented are a lot about the interactions and how varied and fun these are. However, for casino games, it would seem that these factors are not really the most important ones. You can see games with very basic graphics and design, simple in the options for the player and not that engaging yet they do "hook" people in them.
What do these games have to have for you?

It depends on what the player wants, if he is a gamer he'll definitely go for design and highly graphical interface, if he on for money he will not mind those designs and if there's no graphic interface, all they are looking for is how to make money, and make it a passive source of income, we seldom see a casino with great graphical interface and a way to make money.

This is also true.

As long as people are earning money, graphic design won't matter, no matter how simple it is. However, a gambling site with a package (good UI design and games) is a good deal for a gambler, he's enjoying because of both, but since graphic design is a bit pricey and not that important when you're playing gambling, they usually don't bother on making it as good as video games.

In fact, the theme of every gambling sites are the ones that matter for gamblers, because the more you feel the vibe or the theme, the more you enjoy it and you'll feel not that bad when you lose.

Dude.. please...
Game shows and slots offer incredible graphics/animation, sounds, gameplay, etc. especially with game shows, you can also play with a hot chick if you are lucky.
The "not engaging game" would fall into the "high RTP/low HE games" thus people play because of higher winning chance (and they think they can win some money because of it).

Personally, I purely look at whether the odds I get are good or not.

However, I know that for a lot of other people, the graphics and hype around a particular game can be a more significant determinant of whether they play in it or not compared to the expected value they get out of each round.

For instance, the fact that games like fruit party and sweet bonanza were huge hits were not due to the fact that they paid out handsomely. They had quite high volatility, and youtubers on sponsored money would roll until they hit a jackpot and upload the footage, which definitely hooked a lot of people into playing that game.

Hooking up players into your site or make them stay would really be a big challenge as a gambling site owner.Yes, the games offered are typical one but retaining players is something your main or primary concern and this is where design and good user experience in the site would set in and those are one of the common factors that do commonly seen.

A tough one to maintain, right. That's why the competition in the gambling industry is really tough especially for those new sites built. Since there are lots of reputable and big gambling sites now, a new one will need to give its all best to market their site.

Because of that, a good and stunning design and layout are quite necessary to attract new users as they won't stand a chance against popular ones even these sites are built with just a simple layout.

And if we saw a site that is putting so much work into the design, I'm expecting that they will also do the same to their other service.

I agree with this.

A good user interface design is the primary thing to attract players, next would be how fast your gambling site is (I mean it should have laggy features) or else players would be annoyed and leave. Next is your customer support and how "fair" your gambling is, because it is important that you have an active customer support to assist your players whenever they are having problems.

It's also good because at the same time you know what to enhance in your gambling site, to fix bugs, and other common problems in gambling sites.

People get hooked to games if there is a high chance of them winning or if they win regularly, sometimes games that have a catch like riffle tickets ,loyalty points or contests get people playing more on these platforms.

Well this is a rare opportunity mate to Win regularly ? i don't think there is such a thing or many have experience this yet People got hooked on gambling , wondering how?

If you playing your games and not winning regularly or at the least not being profitable then you are losing

and if you are losing regularly then you are either chasing your loses or becoming a gambling addict....so which one do we go with in this scenario??

With all reasons we might give here I think it all aligns with a sense of achievement like winning something.

It is not mate, instead the desire and greediness that make us more becoming hooked , sometimes we are not accepting this but that is true.

Well, the main attraction is possible massive profits, unproportional to your bet size. You risk 10 cents, and you can win $3,000, or even more, how about that? But design also plays its part, even in such games, and slot producers are aware about that. There always will be people who prefer old school design, but most of gamblers love the cool animation, although in slots it's not that necessary as in videogames.

Most commonly that people hook and become gambler is that the bonuses and or a free test on a site, just like having a faucet or a free bet. Marketing strategies like this will always catch the interest of anyone that will join.

And next, it will be followed by the design and the kind of games that there is a chance of winning. For example, the Lottery sometimes would not exist because the chances of winning are very small.

Indeed. Giving a bonus or free bet can attract them back to the casino and play more gambling games. Some casinos still giving that as a bonus for active gamblers or gamblers who already deposit with some amount. If that is about promotion, the casino will always send many offers to people who subscribe to their site to know what events will happen.

But the freebies isn't part of the game which is the focus of this thread, yes you are right but it's for the wrong question. For me, the thing that hooks the people is probably the entertainment factor that a game has. I mean if you are entertained, you will keep coming back right although I feel like entertainment is a generalized factor.

Compensation is one thing but OP is asking for what elements does the game have that makes people hooked in that website. Design isn't that important, I mean yes the right colors and stuff do attract attention but I think it's more than just design, probably the entertainment value.

Although the design is a factor, I agree that it's not that what makes the gamblers hook within the game. There's more than the design and it really includes the compensation. Accept it or not but that's the reality in gambling, people won't gamble if there's no high and quick profit on it but the risk is also high and it could lose you as much as you can within a split second. And as for having fun, that's an understatement because most gamblers are hiding with that reason to justify themselves whenever they lose. There's a reason to say that whenever they lose, they'll say that it's just all about having fun. But the fact that they've lost such amounts, means that they're prepared for the consequence and they know that the higher bankroll they'll have, the higher possible profit/wins they might get.

This is something I agree with. At first, we say that the graphics and design matter the most, but in the long run, the gamer will not be hooked to the game because it will be boring. Bonuses and freebies, such as free skins and free stuff, or some sort of lottery with it, are some of the main reasons why gamers are hooked in the game. However, the play to earn game is becoming increasingly popular, and people are drawn to it not because of the graphics or gameplay, but because you can earn money while playing it.

That's not really a game though, it's more like an application that forces its players to say since it has free money involved. Even play-to-earn games have fun mechanics and the like. I myself started playing to earn, but then I learned more about its mechanics, card combos, rules, and damn I was hooked. If I had more money I would've bought a ton of teams to build around and start trying to practice combos and whatnot. Yes, play to earn has attraction to it, but without its core of enjoyment, honestly, people would leave it in the long run. Companies whose goal is to earn money would never last imo.

Most probably that will depend on how the game works and based on the standard of the gamer, if you appreciate that kind of game then you'll play but if not, even if it has a good graphic design then you'll still not play. It's hard to attract players, the team must do everything one big help is their promotions, if there's a good bonuses then chances are, players will come.
