Can I play IGT Slots for real money?

Yes, if you live in the UK, you can play for real money. If you live in the US, or Canada, though, it's not yet possible. In those countries, you can play games made by RTG, WGS and Betsoft (US), or Microgaming (Canada).

Can I play IGT Slots at Sweepstakes Casinos?

As of yet, the new and exciting Sweepstakes casinos that have become so popular in the US have not featured IGT slots. This is probably for a number of reasons, but mainly that they prefer to stay on real money casinos in States where there is Government regulation for them.

Even though Sweepstakes are legal and regulated, they do not offer real money gambling. Instead they offer the chance to play for free, and redeem tokens or coins for cash prizes. To many people, this seems like the same as real money casino, but it is not. There are many differences, including the fact that you do not need to purchase to play and win at a sweepstakes casino.

That said, if you were to visit High 5 Casino, you get some games that used to be IGT, and are now called High 5. This is because the company that owns IGT, Scientific Gaming, also owns High 5. So some of the games have been handed over from IGT department to High 5 for continued development, and making them work perfectly on mobile devices (High 5 are experts on this)

IGT Slots FAQ

IGT Slots History

International Game Technology, or IGT, is one of the most important companies in the history of gaming. They were founded in 1975 and first specialized in video poker machines, which were considered to be the predecessor of modern slots.

The success of these machines prompted the brand to go public and enter other avenues of the gambling industry.

In the 1980s, they became one of the first companies to use computers as a means of tracking players’ habits and giving out “frequent-player bonuses”. This move singlehandedly transformed casinos as we know them, allowing establishments to use a new marketing tool to attract players and reward them for their loyalty.

The 1990s were a golden age for IGT, as they released one iconic title after another. Of course, the most memorable of those is the Wheel of Fortune, which is still going strong after 20+ plus. It has seen numerous reworks, sequels, and reboots of all kinds.

IGT Awards

As one of the most reputable iGaming brands in the world, IGT has won a multitude of awards in the last few decades.

Not only has the company’s cumulative work warranted some impressive accolades, such as the “Slot Provide of the Year” at the 2020 ICE London show, but their employees and games have also been acknowledged by the international gaming community.

Kim Lee, IGT’s Vice President of Diversity and Inclusion, was added to the “20 People to Watch in 2020’ by Global Gaming Business magazine. Tuan Deng, the company’s Director of Corporate Finance has also been named to the “40 Under 40” list by Providence Business News, also this year.

In addition to all this, Fortune Coin, IGT’s latest video slot, won the Best Slot Game award at the 2020 ICE London Trade show. That’s quite an impressive tally, especially in a year that hasn’t even passed.

IGT slots are reliable and safe

Yes, IGT is officially licensed by both the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) and the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA), which are known as two of the world’s most renowned gambling regulatory bodies.

It’s notoriously tough to pass all the tests needed to obtain a license from these bodies, so a green light from these organizations is a good enough indicator that IGT is 100% safe and legit.

The company is also listed on both the NYSE and NASDAQ, which means that they’re under the highest level of scrutiny, all the time. Moreover, IGT is regularly audited by third-party fairness organizations and companies, along with refusing to offer its games to unlicensed or shady sites.

Free IGT Slots

There are a huge number of free IGT slots online, including classics like Cleopatra, Pixies of the Forest, Monopoly, Triple Diamond, Double Diamond, CATS, Siberian Storm, Wolf Run and Texas Tea. Although some of the older IGT games are not available to play yet, like Money Storm and Texas Tina, as time goes by, more and more are being converted for online play for free or real money.

To play IGT slots for free, simply click on the game and then wait for it to load (no download needed) and enjoy spinning.

Players in the UK and some other European countries are able to play IGT slots for cash, though.

The reason for the difference between different countries is that companies like IGT, who make genuine Vegas games (i.e. the games found in casinos like Caesars Palace and the MGM Grand) do not yet allow their games to be played at online casinos in the US, restricting them to free play and of course, the land-based casinos.

History

The company started way back in the 1950’s and were a huge player in the 'golden days' of Las Vegas, when Frank Sinatra ruled the show. The company become public many years later, when they had their IPO in 1981.

More recently, IGT was taken over and has become part of Scientific Gaming, along with WMS and Bally. They continue to market their products under the IGT brand and produce many different types of casino games, including slots and video poker.

Traditionally, the thing that has set IGT apart from other companies in the gaming world has been their commitment to innovation and their desire to be at the top of the pack from a technology standpoint at all times. This was true even before their IPO in 1981 by being the first company to offer a video poker machine.

In 1984, IGT bought up Electron Data Technologies and with them on board were the first company to introduce database driven casino rewards programs which help casinos track customers.

Two years later, they introduced the Players Edge video poker machine which is still used to this day in many areas of the United States where video poker is legal.

IGT also introduced their first computer controlled slot machine and networked jackpot system the same year, leading the pack throughout this time with top notch gaming as well as some of the most easily controlled machines ever made available to casinos.

Other innovations that IGT is responsible for include features we take for granted today. One such feature is the bill accepter that virtually every slot machine has these days. This feature, when introduced in 1993, was one of the major factors in IGT establishing themselves in the early nineties as an innovator as well as a recognized stock on the New York Stock Exchange for their consistent and excellent performance.

Another innovation that virtually all machines have today is the EZ Pay ticket system, or equivalent. This allows customers to cash out virtually any amount on a machine without having to wait for someone to cash it out for them as was required in times past. Instead, a ticket prints out from the machine which then can be taken to a banker and cashed in or instead played on another machine.

Online History

On top of the land-based casino innovations, IGT is also a leader online. They are the owner of the popular online casino software provider Wagerworks which ultimately gives online casino players access to the same games that IGT provides to brick and mortar casinos.

Since 2005, when IGT acquired Wagerworks, Wagerworks has become one of the top software providers for online casinos, mostly because their game offerings are so diverse, just like IGT’s offerings in casinos around the world, including Las Vegas.

Old School IGT Classics

Over the years, IGT have produced so many wonderful and memorable slots, it would be impossible to list them all. With so many great games over the years, it seems that every player has their special favorites and particular titles that mean something to them.

Some of the old-school classics include Money Storm, Little Green Men, Wolf Run, Pharaoh's Fortune, Texas Tea. Some titles were less well known, but still capture the hearts of many. Does anyone remember Fortune Cookie? Or Texas Tina?

Also, different people have their own 'classics' that they love and cherish.

For example, Lobstermania is a game that is special to me. It is one fo the first games I ever played in Vegas and I was really taken by the beautiful cartoon graphics and humor. If you have never played it or would like to re-live some memoroes, our Lobstermania review page includes a free game you can enjoy without needing to download or install software.

To play the older classics, it is worthwhile taking a trip off-strip in Vegas, or visiting a place like Atlantic City, where a lot of the older games remain. I like it when a casino keeps some of it's old games and AC is really good for that, especially if you go to some of the upstairs areas.
