How The Popular Slots Came To Life

Malaysia’s online slot machines or slots in general went through major technological evolution. Long before they became main attractions in both online and land-based casinos, these games were initially thought as “boring” and were often referred to as a “woman’s game.”

A trip to memory lane
Liberty Bell was the first slot machine invented. It was the brainchild of Charles Fey and it took quite some time before it became available to the public. When released into the market, it was referred to as the so-called “one-armed bandits.” The arm pertains to the lever used to make the reels spin. The term bandit was coined mainly because its irresistible nature constantly lures players to drop a coin.

Slots became an instant hit not only to women, but also to men who used to think that card games alone are the only “real casino games.” As more and more players patronized slots significant modifications and changes were made into the machine.

Discarding the lever
As time pass by, buttons soon replaced levers and motors were used to make slots spin. Many find it more convenient since it requires less movement from the players. Moreover, this allows them to concentrate fully in the game.

These electronic slots were soon replaced by online slots. Its emergence can be traced to the development of online casinos. Slots became even more popular when they became available online. More and more people get the chance to play the game without exerting too much effort.

Types of online slots
With technology’s help, more development and changes were applied to online slots. Players can now enjoy more feature, which increases their winning possibilities. To date, online slots can be categorized into 3 major groups. These are:
a.    Classic slots – slots with 3 paylines
b.    Video slots – slots that use more than 3 paylines. Certain video slots are patterned after movies, cartoon characters and even television sitcoms. Many of video slots also offer progressive jackpots
c.    Slots with the “all ways feature” – slots under this category no longer need paylines to determine a winning combination.

Slots ever changing face suggest that more developments will soon come into life. The good thing about it is for every improvement, the players benefit.
