Why mobile slots became so popular?

Online casinos have been around since the 1990s, providing an exciting and unique experience for dedicated gamers everywhere. Suddenly, the chance to play your favourite games at any time, anywhere, became a reality. But nothing has taken off or been embraced with such enthusiasm by the gaming community as the ability to play using a mobile phone or device. One of the most desired, almost compulsory, accessories of the 21st century came into its own, as the technology behind online games advanced far enough for gamers to play on their small, portable, always accessible device. And even better, this technology brought the best online mobile slot games into your pocket, your handbag, or your briefcase.



The Ubiquitous Mobile Phone


In the 1990s and early 2000s, the mobile phone was a luxury item, best known for, well, making phone calls, and texting. However technology never sleeps, and now it’s not uncommon to schedule meetings, send emails, navigate through strange areas, access social media accounts, do banking, and read books, all off a small device that we carry with us pretty much everywhere. So for those who enjoy playing slot machines, or at casinos online New Zealand-wide, it’s a relief to know that you can play your favourite games, whenever you are able.


What are some of the benefits of playing slots online?


  1. Availability. When you’re on a plane, waiting in line for a sale, stuck in an elevator, or in your doctor’s waiting room, you can alleviate the boredom by playing slots online.

  2. Always improving technology. The entrepreneurs behind the best casino games and pokies are aware that its customers like innovation and expect a quality experience. Leading software developers like Microgaming have thrown their weight behind games that both international and New Zealand players alike can enjoy.

  3. No loss of graphics. None of the aesthetics of a good slots game – visuals, sound, even touch – are sacrificed when playing on a mobile or tablet.


What games are available?


Casinos and pokies New Zealand-wide count in their hundreds the games which are available. However there a few games which are more popular than others. Gonzo’s quest – a search for the fictional city of gold – is a 5-reel, 20-line game which offers its players the chance for re-spins. Jack and the Beanstalk, based on the fabled children’s story, employs 3-D graphics and even sound on the way to stealing the hen. And Mega Moolah remains one of the most popular options to win big.



Stay in touch, stay playing


Your phone is your calendar, your navigator, your camera, your schedule, and your connection to the rest of the world. Now that it can be your casino as well, it’s little wonder that New Zealand players have embraced the online mobile gaming world.
