Most gambling users will agree with the statement that playing in a team is a rather exciting form of gambling. At the same time, it can be either a team of like-minded people or a group of opponents. For example, a winner in poker, who played with several opponents, gets incomparable pleasure. And it's not only about the material benefit received, but also about the feeling of superiority, euphoria, etc. Not all gamers know that among the slot machines of the drum type, so beloved by most casino visitors, there are so-called multi-user slots. You will learn about them by reading the article to the end.
Multiplayer slots: what is it and how does it work
From the name it immediately becomes clear that "a multiplayer video slot is a machine that has a function that allows players to play simultaneously against each other or together (as a group) against a gambling establishment. During the rounds, the participants in the process have the opportunity to communicate via online chat. At the same time, it is not at all necessary that the conversation will be conducted exclusively on the topic of the game. In addition, such machines differ from standard games in that they are used for competitions in Live mode, and also for progressive jackpots for groups of players who launch the machine.
If we are talking about "one-armed bandits", then the multiplayer game differs from the usual only in that the gamblers are united in a group, make a collective bet and spin the reels in the hope of getting a win, which will be divided between them. It cannot be said that such simulators are super popular, but there is a certain interest in them from online casino visitors.
The gameplay looks almost standard. Players select a slot, activate lines if it is a reel-type machine, and place a total bet. Depending on the random number generator, a win or loss is possible at the end of the round. The frequency of payouts depends on the RTP level. The basic rules of playing multiplayer slots are as follows:
- Before starting the machine, players enter a special “virtual room”.
- Typically, such games are designed for a group of gamers, of which there are no more than six.
- In the online chat you can discuss the game strategy, comment on each other's actions or get/give advice on further play.
- When starting a round, you should agree in advance on betting levels and other technical details.
- It is recommended to play the demo version for free if such an opportunity is available.
Don't forget about the bonuses offered by the administration. Naturally, you need to agree on receiving them before the game starts, so that later there will be no misunderstandings between gamers due to the wagering of rewards.
To take part in a multiplayer game there are two options:
- Go to a casino with similar slots at the same time as your friends and create a group.
- Join an existing group of players. This will allow you to meet users who have at least common interests.
The difference between a joint game and a tournament is that gamblers do not have to compete with each other. On the contrary, each round is a process in which team spirit is important. In principle, this mode is very similar to the principles used in eSports (CS:GO, Dota 2, etc.).
Some famous multiplayer devices
Among the machines that are multi-user, slots developed by the famous gaming software provider Microgaming stand out. These are:
- Sure Win. This is a one-armed bandit with 25 paylines. Gamers find themselves at a racetrack and take part in horse racing. The slot has a payout of 96,29%.
- Wheel Of Wealth and versions. These are machines with different numbers of lines, bonuses and features. The RTP of slots is more than 95%.
- Terminator 2. From the name it becomes clear that we are talking about a machine developed based on the cult blockbuster. The simulator's return is at a very high level - 96.62%.
- Centre Court. Five-reel, nine-payline slot. Tennis theme. Payout: 95,51%
Naturally, these are not all the slots that have the multiplayer option. There are others. However, it should be recognized that this format is more popular in land-based casinos. In virtual clubs, gamers prefer to play individually. Nevertheless, it makes sense to pay attention to such slots. This will diversify your stay on the gambling site.
