10th Birthday Celebrations Conclude -- Birthday Contest Winner Announced

This month, Slotland.com – among the very first online casinos -- has been celebrating our tenth birthday. We’ve launched a Spanish version of their all-slots-and-video-poker site (http://es.slotland.com/) as well as a new game at our 3D casino (WinADay.com) and a free slot tournament site (FreeSlot.com). A special birthday contest has awarded a $5000 vacation package to one lucky player.

There weren’t many other online casinos around when Slotland launched way back in 1998. Since then, Slotland has developed an impressive suite of online and mobile games and has earned a reputation for being one of the most reliable and trustworthy online casino sites.This month’s birthday celebrations included a week-long Birthday Contest. All players making a deposit of $100 or more between October 1st and 8th were automatically entered in the free contest. In a random draw a Swedish player known as “FACTOR” won a $5000 vacation package to the destination of his choice.“I’ve only been playing at Slotland for a few years,” said the lucky winner.

“They have a great selection of games that you won’t find anywhere else, and their customer service staff has always been extra helpful. With winter coming to Sweden I think I’ll use this prize to go somewhere warm and sunny!”

With the tenth birthday coming up, we checked their records to see if we had any current players that had been with them since the early days. We found quite a few players that play regularly on the site that have been playing at Slotland for many years.

“I’m not a real high roller, said a player known as “NICK” that’s been playing at Slotland since the early days. “My budget is tight but I’ve always managed to get good entertainment value from Slotland! I usually bet between $.50 and $5.00. Sometimes when I’m doing really well I’ll bet the progressive but otherwise I bet smaller just to keep going for awhile and have fun! I just won $600 on Treasure box which happens to be my favorite when I'm in the mood for something other than poker machines. A few years ago I hit $600 on the Striking 7's game – it is a bonus type machine. You can hit pretty big without a royal, just by getting the four 7's. I love that concept.”“

I don't have a strategy,” confessed the player. “I would like to say that I do, but I tend to be very impulsive! If I were to say I had a strategy it would be that I start out low and slowly work my way up (as far as bets go) and stop if I am not lucky, but that is not very often the case!”

Birthday Celebrations in Barcelona

The Slotland team exhibited at the CAP Euro conference in Barcelona, Spain recently. They toasted Slotland.com's 10th Birthday and celebrated the launch of the new Spanish site while they were there.

Here is a video clip of the 10th Birthday cake.

New Heavenly Reels Slot Launched at WinADay.com 3D Casino

WinADay.com, the three-dimensional online casino launched recently by Slotland.com, has added another new 3D slot machine to their games lobby. The new Heavenly Reels slot machine is a four pay line slot adorned with heavenly cherubs and with angel wings spinning on its wheels – so much fun it’s nearly sinful.

Strategic slots players will love this one. They can wager on one, two, three or all four pay lines. There are two spins for every wager on Heavenly Reels. After checking the results of the first spin, players can hold any or all of the reels on their second spin.

The Heavenly Reels “Treasure Box” is a special bonus fund that accumulates during game play. Any amount bet on a pay line that lands on the “Wild” symbol – a celestial pig with angel wings -- is added to the Treasure Box which players can open and claim when they match a special code below the reels.


“I’ve been playing slots online for a long time,” said one player visiting the 3-D games lobby for the first time. “But I’ve never had a casino employee walk up to me and ask me if I need anything. Too bad he was just animated --- he was kind of cute!”


“I really like the 3-D entrance and casino lobby but at the end of the day the games the thing, isn’t it?” said another player. “I love all four of the slots at WinADay – the graphics are really cool, much more animated – and more fun -- than any other online slot machine I’ve played.”


The WinADay.com 3-D casino now offers four unique slot machines that can be played just for fun or for real money wagers. All WinADay.com games are in instant-play Flash format that requires no downloading or installation. All four games are tied to one progressive jackpot which is currently over $30,000.


To celebrate the launch of the new game, WinADay.com is offering two special Heavenly Reels bonus prizes. The Big Spinner bonus will go to the player that places the most total bets on Heavenly Reels between October 21 and 31. They’ll get 100% of the deposits used for that play refunded. The Triple Luck prize will go to the player that wins the most in a single spin during the same period. They will receive triple their winnings for that spin.


WinADay.com developers are hard at work on two more totally unique 3-D slot machines. Diamond Mine and Puzzle World will be added to the games lobby in coming months.

Slotland Launches Slot Machine and Video Poker Site for Spanish-Speaking Players

Responding to the increasing popularity of online casino games in Spain and Latin America, Slotland.com -- the world’s most popular online slot machine and video poker site -- has launched a Spanish online casino, Es.Slotland.com.

The new online casino offers Slotland.com’s unique games and renowned customer service -- all in Spanish. A special Spanish-speaking Customer Service team has been trained to assist the many Spanish-speaking players that have been registering in Spain and Latin America.

According to a recent issue of the GPWA Times, 130,000 people in Spain alone gambled online in 2007, a 47% increase from 2006. They wagered a total of €650 million, 57% more than in 2006. A study by Munich-based research company, MECN, has shown that the Spanish online gambling market could grow to a €4.2 billion industry by the year 2010. It defined Spain as a key region for future growth, with overall gambling potential reaching €39 billion in 3 years.

“We have players all over the world – in the UK and Europe, in North America, in Australia. One thing they all have in common is they all like innovative new games like ours, they all like to have their winnings paid quickly, and they all need to trust any online company they deal with,” said Ondrej Tuma of Slotland. “Our Spanish players enjoy Es.Slotland.com because we’re always adding unique new games, we have an excellent Spanish-speaking customer support, and our progressive jackpots are very frequently hit for over $100,000!”

All of the slot machines and video poker games on Es.Slotland.com are tied to the same jackpot pool as the English site. Over the years, Slotland’s progressive jackpot has earned a reputation for being hit quite frequently – every six weeks or so – for over $100,000. The last winner won nearly $200,000 on a $2 spin.

To accommodate Spanish-speaking players worldwide, Es.Slotland.com players can deposit by credit card, Neteller, ewalletXpress or Moneybookers where they can conduct their transactions in the currency of their choice.Slotland has always had some Spanish-speaking customer service staff but has increased that team to serve the new Spanish site.
