Do you think these games will be hit?

Yes, I think skill-based games will be a big hit! I think a lot of people are drawn to games that have a luck-skill element. It is human nature to want to think that we have a hand in determining our fate. We want to attribute our success to our skill and hard work and blame losing on bad luck. The skill element is why poker is so wildly popular. It's not just the luck of the cards but how you play your hand. Furthermore, lots of people are familiar with games like tetris, candycrush, etc. If we could incorporate the familiarity of these games we are good at with the excitement of gambling, it would be wildly successful.

I don't play slots now, but definitely I will be tempted to try a few if there was a little bit of skill involved. But I have a friend who believes that there's skill involved in slots since he wins more now than when he started

Yep, I'll be looking at the expansion of these skill-based slots in the future. I can't make my mind up on what I think until I try them!

Are skill-based slot games the future of gaming? 

 

Depends whether we talk about near /next 3 to 5 years/ future or not... If Yes, then my humble opinion is that there is absolutely no chance for the skill based slots to become a significant part of the gambling market. There are too many legal obstacles ahead, not to mention the key moment with the proven fact how conservative most regular online gamblers are in fact. 

 

For the not so near future... I don't know, maybe adding VR /virtual reality/ technologies will change the online gambling completely and there will be no real difference between classic, skill-based or any other type of slots we know now. Who knows...

I guess we just have to be patient and see what the future holds

I think it would be a hit, yes, but not for me. 

 

I like that it is all up to luck. and I can't blame myself for losing.

 

If I wanted to play something skillbased to win money, I would play poker

So if Skill based slots are the future of gaming would you still play?
