Remember the Game Show Network? It’s on your device now as GSN Casino: Slot Machine Games! Get ready to relive GSN’s glory days – then realize you probably could have spent that piece of your childhood a little better…
Lingo was rad! Who Want To Be A Millionaire? Me, please. Did you prefer Press Your Luck or Whammy? Baggage may or may not have been the greatest show ever aired on television.
I miss the days when it was completely acceptable, and normal, to spend hours watching the Game Show Network. I love games, especially games you play for money. Of course, I was excited to take on GSN Casino: Slot Machine Games. What could go wrong?
GSN Casino looked promising… I could play slots on the go and those slots would be themed off of all of my favourite GSN games. The app promised me some sweet Wheel of Fortune slot actions and encouraged me to “Battle the Banker in our dazzling slots version of Deal or No Deal and WIN BIG!”
It had all the great features anyone could look for or come to expect from an online slots app…
- “Install today and receive 12,500 FREE COINS as a welcome bonus!”
- “Multiple ways to collect tokens EVERY DAY!”
- “Unlock new and incredible free slot machines and other casino games every month!”
- “Feeling lucky? Show off your poker skills with our riveting video poker tournaments!”
- “Endless ways to win HUGE 777 Jackpots!”
I wanted to love this app just as I loved my Family Feud marathons. But there just wasn’t enough ‘GSN’ in this casino app.
The games they feature are solid, nothing special, but good enough. Deal or No Deal Slots, Wheel of Fortune, and Deal or No Deal Wild Wilds were the only ‘real’ game themed slots. The rest were generic and typical slots.
There’s just not much more to say about this app. The graphics are good and there is a pretty fun jackpot “Plinko” board where you can drop a virtual chip and rake in some serious coins.
Perhaps my expectations were a tad too high. I was hoping for some nice variety and to perhaps a sample of all those games GSN used to air but have since vanished. I wanted a nostalgia-fueled trip through my old late-night game show guilty pleasures and instead got a decent casino slots app.
Hopefully, this app continues to add more sorely missed classic GSN titles to its roster. Until then, you may find CasinoSmash’s tips on finding free online casino games useful.
It may be best to look elsewhere for the gaming good ol’ days and maybe just YouTube those Weakest Link episodes you crave.
