Slots History

When Charles Fey of San Francisco devised his first "one-armed bandit" in 1887, he could hardly have guessed that 130 years later, his invention would be one of the most popular games in the world. Early machines featured three reels showing the four suites of Hearts, Spades, Clubs and Diamonds; later models used fruit (which is the origin of the UK name "fruit machine").

Slot machines were an instant success when they first appeared, and have gone from strength to strength ever since. Today, there are over 30 million Slots players worldwide, with Slot machines the most popular game in both online and offline casinos.

The huge appeal of Online Slots is that it’s fair, great fun to play, and possible to bet a small amount and come back with a very large sum of money. Although this makes it ideal for beginners, there is also a real depth of gameplay that means many seasoned gamers are amongst its biggest fans.

Back in the late 19th Century, the slot machine was considered revolutionary. But today’s online slot machines are no less impressive. The latest video technology means online slots have an incredible variation and depth of gameplay that gives them a hi-tech edge over traditional slot machines.

In Fey's day, machines would have been confined to local restaurants and bars; although they are still found in bars and pubs, Slots are also hugely popular online. With fantastic gameplay, and an impressive amount of innovations and new features on offer, we believe that SpinPalace.com offers the most enjoyable online slot games found anywhere on earth!
