We've seen slots featuring Egyptian queens, slots featuring monkeys and slots with magical unicorns. Yet, slots based on famous names and faces are often some of the most popular online games. What's their secret?
Television Slots
We've all wished we could spin the Wheel Of Fortune and online games based on our favourite television shows prove that all slots players crave the limelight. While there's no Nicky Campbell or Bradley Walsh, online slots based on television shows are a great way to recreate the excitement of being on prime time TV. Other slot games like The Price Is Right and Jeopardy give players the chance to prove that if they ever did appear on television, they'd walk away with the jackpot and a cuddly toy.
The King
Undoubtedly the king of online slots, Elvis' face, complete with his trademark upturned lip, is blazoned on many an online slots game. Having made his name in the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas casinos, Elvis is a figure synonymous with gambling, the excitement of the casino and the sound of jingling slot machines hot with cash. His image has been used on everything from slots to card decks and many online casinos host a number of slot games in his honour.
The draw of The King, from his rock and roll lifestyle, to the hoards of screaming fans that followed him around, still bring people to the slots. He's the epitome of cool and many players must feel that merely being in the presence of his iconic ducktail hairdo brings them a little more luck when they're playing slot games. Presumably whilst humming 'Suspicious Minds'.
Game Slots
It's not just burger-eating musicians that make people flock online though and you can never beat a bit of childhood nostalgia for a stint on the slots. Family games, like Monopoly and Cluedo make up a sizeable proportion of online slot machines. The familiar faces of the moustachioed banker or the sultry Miss Scarlet are fond memories of a childhood spent arguing over who gets to play with the top hat figurine. Thankfully, online slots don't cause such tussles.
