History of Slots

The first slot machines were started in San Francisco, California 1887 by a man named Charles Fey. This machine had only 3 spinning reels and 5 images designed with Diamonds, Hearts, Horseshoes, Bells, and spades. Due to the simplicity of the design the cash out and payment systems of this machine were also very simple. Coins would be placed in a eye level slot and come out a larger lower slot. This was a complete game changer as anything beyond card gambling and board gaming was simply unheard of during this time and would soon be banned temporarily as the game concept rose a risk when played too frequently of loss of vital life wages to the machines.

The slot machine was so popular it was hard for Charles Fey to keep up with supply and demand, so he made a deal with a large company Manufacturer Mills of Chicago, IL. Slot machines were installed in parlors, bars, restaurants, as a key attraction point to bring in more business.

Electronic Slot Machines

Video Slots were first introduced in 1967 by the company Fortune Coin Co. This was the first fully electronic series of slot machines ever made. The company had a partnership with Sony Co. who produced the screens and on-board systems. The first electronic machine was installed at The Hilton Hotel in Las Vegas, NV.

PC Games

Next came the computer software method of playing slots. The first ever online casino which included virtual slots started in 1996 at InterCasino an online company which is still flourishing today. InterCasino started with just 18 available games and the National Indian Lottery. Online Official Gambling continued until 2006 when the United States approved an Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. Do not worry though these laws have been changing where some states will allow online gambling. See your regions directory for more information regarding the Enforcement Act in your local area.

Mobile Slots and Social Gaming

Slots were first introduced as Free to Play to Social Platforms by the company Playtika. Playtika was founded in 2010 by Uri Shahak and Antokol in Israel with the first social casino slot game Slotomania available to a worldwide market. This was a big page turning step in the slots industry as the possibility of success in a potential market for playing slots without a cash payout was unheard of. By incorporating a social aspect to the design, the idea was not only a success but boosted a user volume of approximately 20 Million Worldwide. In 2015 the company Playtika held a net worth of 3.4 Billion.

Today Playtika is still holding the reigns for some of the best available mobile slot games. Both Caesars Slot Machines and Games and Slotomania are available through Playtika free to play in all mobile markets including but not limited to Google, Amazon, and Apple Technologies. Caesars Casino can also be accessed through PC Computer including gaming concepts Classic Slots, Black Jack, Roulette, and Video Poker.

Providing both a rewards program and hires for career opportunities to the public worldwide. Rewards range from bonus points to real world prizes and earnings based on accumulative levels. These levels are Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Royal Diamond and Black Diamond. A neat way to play a free game while still earning something back in return simply by logging in to the website or mobile app.

Today mobile slots can be found not only through Playtika but other popular companies such as Zynga, Super Lucky Casino, Three Wishes Casino, and Huuuge Global. Smaller independently owned games are also available but vary depending on your brand and mobile carrier.
