One armed bandits, fruit machines, iPad video poker or next month’s rent – whatever you may call them, slots games have been a long-time favourite of casinos goers and bar patrons worldwide. Slot machines so called due to their manner of receiving coins were also called one armed bandits due to their original operating method – a lever on the one side of the machine (known as an arm) was used to engage the game rather than a button on the dashboard which is the current manner of use. In homage to their earlier days, many machines still have an ornamental lever as a nod to the heyday of slot machines.

Slot machines have been around in some form or other since 1891 – yes even back then machines were being designed to test the will and betting abilities of gamblers. The predecessor to the first slots games was a gambling machine developed by Sittman and Pitt in New York. It was a machine or more like a DIY poker dealer that was made up of 5 drums which held 50 cards. Bars across New York City brought in these machines for their customers and they proved hugely successful. Players would insert coins and then pull down the lever – this caused the drums to spin along with the cards in the hope of a good hand. At this stage the machines were not capable of a direct cash pay out but winners were rewarded with a free beer or if they won better hand, like a royal flush, could win players cigars or premium drinks. Sometimes, the bar owners would remove a few cards or drums to increase the odds for the house.

The Original Slots Games in America

San Francisco was the original birthplace of the first true slot machine thanks to a gentleman by the name of Charles Fey. He was able to invent a very simple automatic mechanism. Instead of the huge variety of possible wins the previous poker machine allowed, this version only made use of 3 spinning reels and instead of cards using 5 symbols – the diamond, spades, horseshoes, hearts and a bell. This combination made it much easier to create a way of effectively automating the payout system. The original slot machine was named the Liberty Bell (after the bell symbol) and this machine became a rip roaring success across the bars, barbershops, saloons, bowling alleys and some houses of ill repute – the demand for these machine was so great, that even after the machines were banned in California, the inventor couldn’t keep up with the requests for more slots games machines with great casino bonuses. New slot machines were built by other companies but the original Liberty Bell machine can be found at the state museum in Nevada.

In the sixties the first fully fledged online slot machine was invented- the Money Honey. This electromechanical construction meant that it was the first machine with a bottomless hopper and the ability to reward via an automatic payout to the value of 500 coins without needing an attendant to assist. It was as this type of game gained in popularity the need for a working lever was slowly but surely phased out as automated buttons took precedence.
