Play Your Own Personalized Online Slot Game

Added: August 6, 2014

Late in 2008 the software provider Microgaming released an innovative slot machine at its online casinos titled MySlot. At the time of its release this slot game was highly lauded, but it failed to draw traffic after the initial curiosity wore out. Players like to wager on slot games that depict themes interesting to them. MySlot allowed players to superimpose their own themes on a template. This article reviews that unique online slot game that failed to click.

MySlot offers a template of 5 reels, 9 paylines and 45 coins and also includes video slot features like wild symbols, scatter symbols, multipliers and a free spin bonus game. You first download the game in the default version. Then you replace each symbol with a symbol stored in the hard disc of your computer using the edit tool provided within the game. The symbol that you use to replace the default wild symbol will become the new wild symbol. The new scatter symbol will be created in this way. The new symbols will appear on the reels and also on the payout table. MySlot online slot provides a color palette with which you can change the background color and make it suit the theme of your chosen images. The third and last element in customization process is the audio. Music or other sounds can be added either from your MP3 device or from your computer.

The idea is to use these three elements to create an online slot game based on a theme that is close to you. If you have just returned from a holiday you can use that for the theme. The wild and scatter symbols can be you and your companion. The other symbols can be the places that you went to. A suitable song for a holiday theme is Cliff Richard’s hit number Summer Holiday. If you are an EPL fan, you can select your favorite players from your favorite team as symbols and choose green as the background color. The possibilities are limitless. And you do not have to lose your earlier customized slot game when you make your next. You simply save each new slot game under a different name.

When you get something you have to lose something. The animations and audio visual effects in contemporary video slots have become outstanding. You cannot include these when you create your own game in MySlot. So you have to trade these for the personalization of the slot game. MySlot is live at all Microgaming online casinos such as All Slots, Jackpot City and Spin Palace.
