If slots disappeared tomorrow, which game to you think will replace it?

[MAAManda]

We must first understand why slot games are so popular with many gamblers. From what I've seen & experienced as a player, slots are fun because of the surprises that can occur, fast payouts & fast round. For those reasons, what I think could replace slots if they disappear are original crypto casino games. Examples include crash & other original games.

If indeed the slot game is lost I will only have the option to choose sports betting only,
Because for other games it seems that I am too weak and not mentally strong.

Like the Crash Game that made me break out in a cold sweat because I had to determine where I would stop or lose the bets made.
This made me mentally distracted a bit and didn't want to play crash games anymore.

The only sports game I can choose from, bet on a random team or my favorite team with a complete analysis for each match that will take place

What a non sense argument. A person can do sportbetting and slot/roulette/blackjack/etc at the same time. Why do you think just because if slot disappear (your imagination), then sport betting to take the domination over majority of bettors?

Doing sport betting ain't force you to keep your eyes on your bet. So you have free time to play other game.

Maybe the games that will replace slots are live dealer games or sports betting if ever slots will disappear. Anyway, I don't think It's possible that the slot games will disappear since it is very popular to gamblers. Even in my country where most of the gamblers are playing slot games and also most of the announcement for the winners are winners from slot games. That's what I saw in a casino in my country that when someone is announced winning huge amount of money is that the person won it on slot games.

Most people like slot games because they are very easy; you put in money, click start, and wait for the result. Of course, you can adjust the multiplier as you wish, but in general, they are very easy games. Now, if slot games no longer exist, then people will look for easier games that are similar to slots, and few people will look for sports betting because in sports betting people would have a lot of work analyzing the games before placing bets. I also highly doubt that most people would go to card games due to the high level of difficulty that card games require.

I voted “crash games” and it seems the general crows agrees with me and it makes sense. Slot games are luck based just like crash games. The result is determined randomly by serverside seed. These are all glorified dice games in the end. In Slots and crash games you see the result a bit delayed, dice is mostly instant.

Sports betting is a completely different game so it has nothing to do with slots or crash games. There is of course some luck element in sports but slots/crash games are 100% luck based.

Roulette is also a good slot game replacement btw. The main logic is pretty much the same.

[Agbamoni]

Take over in what aspect? Do you mean, in terms of popularity or the number of gamblers?

Slot games are popular but not that popular for sports betting IMO. If slot games should disappear based on your imagination, then sports betting should be the best choice for gamblers.

[Royal Cap]

Although I don't think there is such a possibility. However even if it is hypothetically, I think that the place of slot games will definitely be taken over by crash games.Because although the categories of the two games are different, the results are the same. That is crash games, like slot games sometimes give big multipliers.

And personally since I am a casino game lover, I don't think most people will turn to sports betting if slots disappear, because in the case of sports betting the results are not available instantly like in casinos or slot games. Although one's opinion may differ.

As the title suggest, if by chance slot games disappeared tomorrow, which do you think will replace it and why?

For me I think I will go with live dealer games such as baccarat or black jack or maybe roulette.

But I could also see that sports betting might take over, as we all know that there are really big sporting events all throughout the calendar year like Football and NBA or basketball. So there is a big possibility that it will take over and casinos still going to survived without slot games.

This is something that's unlikely to happen in gambling but if it does then I think crash games would easily repace it. Black jack to me isn't entirely like slot games because it has bit of probability involved and a bit calculative, some gamblers can apply strategies to it but slot games on the other hand is jaut dependent on luck and one casino game that can replace this game is crash and also aviator games

[obuoma]

Even with how gambling and betting is today, sport betting can still be used to compare casinos in general, as there are many people that are gambling in casinos separately, there are also many people that are using sport to bet even as there are slots today. Casinos and bookies are comparable today.

I think you are missing the point here because there is a clear difference between slot and sports betting so I don't think the post was pointing towards casino games exclusively. At the moment, sports betting seems to be bigger than slot as there are more people betting on sports than all casino games combined. Thinking that sports betting will replace slot is therefore not the right answer. If people move from slot, then there are games that are close such as crash, lottery and others that depends mainly on luck. Those will be good candidates for people who are inclined to games of luck.

[JunaidAzizi]

If something like that happens, then sports betting will be the one that can take over. The reason is clear, slots are totally luck-based, and they make people more entertained by wondering what their luck will be. When they are playing, they are engaged with it, and the same is true for sports, it can hold the players' attention from start to finish. No one knows the results, and they get maximum fun. Around the world, sports are now very popular, and anyone can access them easily, so I think sports will be the second choice for people.

Saying sport bets might takeover to me is an understatement because as it stance,  sport bets is the most dominance type of gambling providers which I believe is due to the real live events of the games which fans could participate in the live events with a very fun and entertaining modes.
Casino games are just purely for gambling activities which does not have a real life contrasts like sport games. And honestly, I prefer playing slots and sports the most. Others may not be too interesting like that to me and I believe casino game developers are aware that slot games is most dominance among their games provisions and can not be in the objective to delist slot games from their platforms.

If slots were to just up and vanish, I think the games taking their place would probably be other luck-based ones. People like slots because they're easy — no strategy needed, just pull the lever and wait for that quick rush of excitement. They'll most likely be replaced by something just as simple.

I bet it’s games like craps, roulette, or any other game of chance. See, they have this in common - easy play, fast and still keep the hope for big wins without having to rack your brains much.

Games like baccarat or blackjack are also popular, though they still require some knowledge and decisions. On the other hand, many slot players actually want something that is immediate, spontaneous, and based entirely on luck. This is where games like roulette and craps would best fill in for slots should they ever go completely missing.

I agree with you on live dealer games. This is because,  live dealer games like blackjack, baccarat and roulette are interactive games just like slots. Yea, if slots disappear, the casino will not stop operations. Instead they will push their focus towards similar games and gamblers too won't stop gambling either.

Sports betting will always gained a remarkable spot in the world of gambling because of the love and passion people have for sports. Sports betting will also do significantly well in the absence of slot games. The most important thing is that the disappearance of slot games will not lead to the collapse of gambling. Casinos and gamblers will always adapt.

When you say "replace", are you talking about popularity? And if you are talking about popularity, it's going to be sportsbetting. I remember reading somewhere that sports betting is pretty high up at the top when it comes to popularity. But if you are talking about where those slot gamblers would go if slots suddenly disappeared, probably on a crash game, I mean, it's probably because closest to slots since it is also a fast paced game compared to other live dealer games.

Have you taken the poll I did? So far, this is the result
Live dealer games   - 0 (0%)
Sports betting   - 0 (0%)
Crash games   - 3 (100%)
Total Voters: 3
I'm not surprised by the result. As a Crash Games player, it's one of the most exciting games in casinos; in fact, there are dedicated sites for the Crash game, so if players lose interest in slots, it's unlikely to happen. Crash game will likely replace slots as the next popular game.
But I'd like to see how the voting goes after several weeks

That's the one I would choose too, and it makes sense to me because in slots you usually don't have to think, just spin and go, while in sports betting and in live dealer games you have to make decisions. In crash the only decision you have to make is whether to stop or wait (if you don't preset it).

Another game that is not in the poll but could be another candidate to replace slots if they disappeared could be plinko, for similar reasons. But plinko is not as popular as other alternatives, I think.

Well, they won't disappear tomorrow... they will last as the human race! Long story short: The earliest gambling game dates back to 3000-3500 BCE... Imagine it was early dice made from animal bones, stones, and clay. We still play dice games... in lightning mode, 5000 throws in a few seconds!

I guess you should read a bit about the history of slot machines... It can be pretty interesting if you like the topic. Since I live in a third-world country, when I was young, most of the slots were about the fruits & cards at the beginning... In more advanced countries, those slots were popular back in the 70s & 80s, but they came here after the 90s... And where are we now? Bonus rounds, super bonus rounds... and there are many in between. With all the mechanics, some slots are pretty wild...

So it's simple... they will not disappear, they will evolve! It's more interesting to imagine what we can expect in the future than to think about something impossible to happen.

I'm not sure that any single game could replace the variety of options that slots gives you. There's stuff like crash games or dice, but there are only so many options to visually dress those up differently or give the player an illusion of control with more settings. Live casino games would probably end up front and center again - roulette, craps, blackjack, etc. can create a pretty full rounded casino experience. However this is all hypothetical because it would be impossible to remove slots from online gaming at this point, at least one jurisdiction is always bound to accept it and players flock to these kind of games for whatever comfort that it gives them. Poker might gain more players in this wonderland without slots to compete against.

[Jatiluhung]

Although slots seem likely to remain one of the most popular games, if we consider a scenario where slots disappear, then crash games would probably replace them, followed by sports betting or sportsbooks, which have enjoyed long-standing popularity in both online and offline gambling. Most long-time players definitely prefer sportsbooks.

Ah, one of my personal favorites, Poker, might also regain significant popularity. Currently, interest has declined slightly because it does take time to play. And nowadays, most people prefer easier and more instant methods. Personally, I enjoy poker and Sportsbook. Lately, I’ve also been trying Crash Games fairly often, though not as much as the time I spend on Poker. Considering that most people prefer instant games, Crash Games might indeed take the lead, followed by Sportsbook.

Because for other games it seems that I am too weak and not mentally strong.

If slots were to disappear tomorrow even though it seems like something that is impossible but let's just assume since nothing is truly impossible. If the slots games were to disappear today, casinos will quickly push two other games to take their place which includes live dealer games like roulette and blackjack and sports betting. The reason why I mentioned these two games is because those games are fast and are also exciting to play. Reviews from gamblers who engage in the shows how people love those games.

But now let's talk about the reality, slots will never disappear from the gambling scene and the reason why I am so confident about what I said is because slots are the number one money maker for every casino in the world where you can just put small money and the next thing you see is a big win and the exciting thing is you do not even need to study any strategies or think too deeply about anything.
