Strangely enough, this isn\u2019t true of Slot games. Of course, there is a multitude of new releases that disappear into oblivion after a few days. However, every now and again, we\u2019re introduced to a game that hits all the right notes, taking its place as Slot Royalty. These games join the ranks of the unforgotten.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And with that rather dramatic introduction. Let\u2019s swiftly move on to our carefully curated list of only the most fantastic Slot games that continue to delight year after year. To make things more enjoyable, we\u2019ve split the games up into different categories. Here we go!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[button link=&#8221;https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/games\/slots&#8221; type=&#8221;big&#8221; newwindow=&#8221;yes&#8221;]PLAY SLOTS[\/button]<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wheel of Fortune Slots<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who on Earth doesn\u2019t like a spinning wheel that offers the chance at prizes beyond your wildest dreams. Nobody, that\u2019s who. Originally the sole territory of television shows, wheels of fortune have also integrated themselves into several Slot games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The wheel itself doesn\u2019t always appear at the same time or in the same way. It could be a permanent part of the game design, it could become activated as one of the Bonus features or sit in place of a Free Spins game. However it\u2019s triggered, it\u2019s guaranteed to be an exciting event. There\u2019s something deliciously irresistible about the blur of colour and the anticipation of trying to predict where the needle will stop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few of our favourites are:<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wheel of Wishes<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vault of Fortune<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wild Wheel<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mystic Wheel<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Game Inspired Slots<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Live Casino has capitalised on the human desire to get on a game show panel better than any other sector. That being said, Slots were doing it first &#8211; and they still are. From board games to game shows, Slot games have picked up on their popularity and added the thrill of spinning reels over the top.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These kinds of games give you the opportunity to participate in games that you could only observe from the sidelines before. Remember that ultimately they\u2019re still a Slot game, with the basic mechanism not really resembling the original game. That being said, they always include special features that channel the pure excitement of the game play you remember from boards or television screens, allowing players to interact and potentially walk away with a fantastic stack of coins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A couple of our favourites are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Monopoly Megaways<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who Wants to be a Millionaire<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Silly Slots<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cartoons aren\u2019t just for kids, and no one understands that better than the slot industry. Sometimes you just want to kick back, relax and laugh at something slightly absurd. These days Slot game providers have become very amusing with their themes. This is another awesome fallout of the endless competition that surrounds the industry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a really difficult theme to narrow down, with almost daily releases featuring cartoon animals, animated characters and comedic subject matters. But you need to remember that Slot games aren\u2019t just about looks, and players need to have a good chance at a decent prize in order to make it worth their while. That\u2019s why we scoured the library at SkyCity Online Casino to narrow it down to only the best of the best.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few of our favourites are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7 Piggies<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dead or Alive<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Punk Rocker<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jammin\u2019 Jars<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jewel and Gem Slots<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Almost everyone is mesmerised by the sight of glittering gems and sparkling jewels. These shiny rocks conjure up images of wealth, lustre and glamour. All things every player is hoping to achieve with a lucky windfall on a single spin.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you might imagine, there are countless slot games that feature a multitude of gems and jewels. In fact, a single sparkly diamond is one of the classic symbols that feature in the very first slot games. Today, these much-coveted rocks come in all shapes and colours. They\u2019re offered to various degrees of quality, with some providers doing a marvellous job of capturing every glistening facet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few of our favourites are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/pokies\/starburst-slot\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Starburst<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jewel Blast<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sticky Diamonds<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reel Gems<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nostalgic Slots<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before Slot games started to adopt branding and fancy facades, they pretty much all looked the same. And by the same, I mean a slightly changed version of the one-armed bandits you used to find lining the walls of seedy bars. That meant a series of Lemons, Cherries, Bars, and Number Sevens all spinning in three-reel arrangements.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Much as the industry has advanced since those heady days of the 70s and 80s, players still seek out the old classics. Many of these are packing boosted mechanisms including special features under the hood. However, visually, they remain strongly reminiscent of the very first Slot machines.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll find that many of these pokies feature a Number Seven. This has always been significant to superstitious players because of its association with good luck. Our top picks for this genre are littered with these kinds of icons.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few of our favourites are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blazin\u2019 Hot 7s<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Twin Spin<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Immortal Fruits<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fruity Pays<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elaborate Slots<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These are definitely a part of the newer wave of slot games. I like to think of them as a direct result of the increasing competition between game providers. In fact, some of these more closely resemble PlayStation games, striving to entertain players with cutting edge graphics, adventure themes, interactive features and more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These Slot games often feature memorable characters that invite you to join them on various adventures. You\u2019ll frequently travel through time, visit foreign lands and explore lost cities. Ready to buckle up and get going? We thought you might be.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few of our favourites are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jackpot Raiders<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Star Bounty<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">24 Hour Grand Prix<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Time Travel Tigers<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Jackpot Slots<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This particularly exciting genre of Slot games consistently breaks the internet with their groundbreaking prizes that frequently run into seven figures. There\u2019s a very good reason why players keep coming back to the same handful of favourite Jackpot games over and over.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The combination of exciting gameplay, engaging design and the potential of a life-changing prize is absolutely irresistible. Of course, not all Jackpot Slots are created equal. There are plenty of games that feature endless droning spins and the promise of prizes that never materialise. At SkyCity Online Casino you\u2019ll find a steady stock of only the most in-demand and desirable Jackpot games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A few of our favourites are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/pokies\/mega-moolah-jackpot-winner\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mega Moolah<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr Fortuno<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/pokies\/jackpot-stars-hall-of-gods\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hall of Gods<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.skycitycasino.com\/blog\/pokies\/jackpot-stars-mega-fortune\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mega Fortune<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What makes a Slot game popular?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s a tough question to answer. Sometimes even fantastically intricate games end up lost within the void of forgotten Slot games. But since between 60% and 70% of casino revenue is derived from Slot games, you can bet providers will continue to try and find that magical formula. The elusive Slot sweet spot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Casinos (both online and land-based) love slots, and players do too. They offer the consistent possibility of a glittering win, and this potential never loses its shine. They\u2019re also simple and easy to play, the perfect way to kick back after a long day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s also important to remember that just because something&#8217;s popular, that doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019re going to like it. The film <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">La La Land <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">won a very prestigious Oscar, but I still feel queasy every time I hear the opening credits.
