when they first started out as SErvice GAmes in the 40\u2019s and 50\u2019s, they made mostly slot machines.\u00a0 Now SEGA is going back to their roots with SEGA Slots, a free-to-play downloadable slot machine game for iOS and Android (reviewed on iPad here).\u00a0 Many of the slots here feature SEGA\u2019s most popular video game characters and games, like Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Monkey Ball, Shinobi, Samba de Amigo, and Golden Axe!<\/p>\n<p>Play control is easy to learn.\u00a0 Just tap the bottom of the screen to spin.\u00a0 You start out with just a Sonic table, but you\u2019ll have goals to achieve, like win a certain number of times, etc.\u00a0 When you reach a goal, you\u2019ll gain a level.\u00a0 When you gain enough levels, you can unlock other tables, too.\u00a0 You bet using virtual money, and can set it to various amounts.\u00a0 You can buy more coins with real money via the in-game store, too.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t know if I was incredibly lucky at first, and then unlucky later, or if the game is rigged.\u00a0 But after I got to about level 17 or so, it was nigh impossible for me to gain any more levels because you have to set the bets to max and by then it was in the million coins mark.\u00a0 Even when I set it lower, I still couldn\u2019t win enough.\u00a0 You can get more coins daily by hitting pi\u00f1atas in a bonus game and such, but it still wasn\u2019t enough.\u00a0 So I kind of lost interest.\u00a0 It\u2019s a shame, too, because I really wanted to see the Samba de Amigo and Golden Axe slots.\u00a0 After those tables are some slots without licensed video game characters.\u00a0 I wonder if those are based on SEGA\u2019s older slot machines?\u00a0 I also wish they had more tables based on other SEGA properties, like Space Channel 5 and such.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/slots_screen\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17455\"
