7 Melons online casino: Slot machines

All casinos, including online casinos, offer the casino game classic: slot machines. Thanks to the fact they’re easy to use, they’re still some of the most popular online games. They can also be played for free in demo mode or by betting real money. Players can pull the lever, or press the start button, and hope they land three identical, flashing symbols. Playing pleasure is guaranteed!

Still, the best thing about slots that can be played online is no wait times. Players don’t have to wait for the roulette wheel or dealer, but can just log in and start playing. They can even do it from all over the world. The only requirements for playing at real-money casinos are an Internet connection and a big enough wager. First and foremost, there’s one thing online slots are: easy to use. Each slot uses single rounds. This means that the game can be left after the end of each completed round. However, you can also play any number of rounds in a row. While playing online slots, you can get other things done, which makes them extra appealing. You’ve no doubt seen slots in various places before, or played a slot game at a casino. Not only can you enjoy a beer or catch up with friends in these cases but—well—also play. People who play in online casinos now have even more freedom to do whatever they like while playing.

How slots came into being

Anyone who’s visited a casino, an arcade, or even a bar before has come across them: slots. These big, colorful boxes boasting a massive display can’t be missed. They are adored by visitors and patrons—especially the machines that look around 50 years old and are basically part of the furniture. But where did they come from? To answer this question, we need to go back in time a couple of years: to 1889, to be exact. That’s when the Caille brothers invented what they called the "Black Cat.” It was a one-armed bandit set up for entertainment purposes. It even featured the famous lever back then. By the way, the term "one-armed bandit” comes from the US, where these machines are also called "slot machines.” People accused them of stealing their money, just like bandits. The fact they were putting real money into the machines themselves didn’t matter. One incredibly popular slot machine was the "Liberty Bell” in 1899. This machine was invented by mechanic Charles August Fey and was the first to have a system with three reels. Fey missed out on filing a patent, however, which is why the invention was snapped up by the gambling industry. People were also able to put actual money into this machine. The system evolved over time, and so the once-mechanical slots are now fully electronic. After the player puts in a coin or presses a button, the game round starts. Those looking forward to actually pulling a lever, though, will be disappointed. In physical or real-money casinos, they are mostly only there for nostalgia. So, people playing a slot machine at a casino will not be able to pull the lever. This part was completely omitted when online casinos were introduced. When looking at the design and music in many games, however, we can see it’s been adopted in a different way.

Slot variants

There are also slots that don’t exclusively operate using real money. These can’t be found in real-money casinos, but in bars or arcades. Along with slot machines, there are pinball machines, arcade machines, or mechanical crane games. With pinball machines, it’s all about skill and not real-money wins. In this game, a metal ball is catapulted into a slanted playing surface. Then the player has to prevent the ball from falling all the way down by using levers or buttons. With arcade machines, skill is important; however, they’re primarily electronic games. Additionally, players have to put in real money in order to operate them. You can play to your heart’s desire, thanks to a display, a control panel, joystick, buttons, and a coin slot. Popular games include Mercs and GuitarFreaks. Arcade machines saw their peak in the mid-1980s and captivated children and teenagers alike—much to the displeasure of the parents who had to spend real money on them. And these famous arcades are still around today—primarily in the US. There has also been a number of developments in arcade games. This is why there are sit-in cabinets for racing games, or walk-in or sit-down cabinets for multiplayer or dance games. These sometimes only work when real money is put in. The infamous crane games are especially fun for kids. These machines can above all be found at large shopping malls, fairs, or carnivals. They consist of a large display case, a coin slot, and a joystick. Inside the display case, there is a myriad of stuffed animals. The aim of the game is to grab at least one stuffed animal with the claw and drop it into the designated opening. After putting in a coin, players can control the claw using the joystick. Then it dives into the toys and grabs automatically. Whether the player actually catches a stuffed animal depends on the player’s skill and the machine’s grabbing strength. One of the slot machine’s distant cousins is the vending machine. You can see them at train stations or in front of shopping malls. They also use the same mechanism of slots. Even though there’s no winning in the classic sense but a product being bought, the process is the same: real money is put in, a combination for a certain product is keyed in, and the product is delivered. After the number has been entered, a mechanical process makes the product tumble down automatically into the designated opening.

Then the game is pretty straightforward: while one-armed bandits are started with the lever in physical real-money casinos, in online casinos, a single click on the "Spin” button is enough. Small action, big effect: The online slot’s reels are set into action and the excitement builds—which symbols will you land? The variety of winning patterns is just as wide as the choice of online slots. They differ in the win amount and frequency of payouts. Check your real-money casino’s game instructions in advance and prepare your personal winning strategy.  

Don’t just let the flashing symbols influence which slots you select. Among other things, your decision should be based on which payout structure you prefer.

An insight into the world of online casinos 

The history of online casinos only spans around 30 years, but it does pack a punch. The industry started in the 1990s. Back in the day, the Internet was still in its infancy, Internet connections weren’t exactly stable, and it was still rough around the edges and hard to use. During this time, developers were already dealing with the topic of online gambling. How could slots be digitized so that the fun could be accessible to everyone? That’s also the idea behind the invention of the Internet. Each person should be a part of a large network, and, looking at the casino industry, everyone should have the chance to play online in a casino. The first steps towards casino fun were taken in the mid-1990s. At this point, Internet connections were more stable and secure, flat fees were introduced, and data speed was improving. Two of the first countries to legalize online gambling were Antigua and Barbuda. These two Caribbean countries implemented a free trade and processing zone law in 1994, which allowed gambling licenses to be issued. In the same year, software developer Microgaming launched the first gambling games online. Two years later, there were 16 providers offering casino fun on the Internet. In 1997, this number reached 200. Ever since then, this world has been constantly developed, expanded, and improved, turning into a multi-million industry. In 2010, there were 860 online casinos, most of which were based in Canada or the United Kingdom. And what about Switzerland?

Slot games and online casinos in Switzerland

On January 1, 2019, a new gambling law, decided on through a referendum, came into force. Among other things, this determined that casinos can now offer online casinos. These are subject to the strictest of regulations. So, players have to expect checks earlier. This is simply due to the fact that the Internet works much more anonymously than a physical visit in a casino. In Switzerland, 7 Melons is a certified online casino which is legally allowed to operate.
