Description: Experience the rush of Vegas for the first time ever in Virtual Reality! Slot Tub Party offers 3 unique slot machines each with a variety of ways to win. Travel to Vegas, play on the beach, or take to the skies!
Review: Slot Tub Party is a social game that tries to capture the spirit of a high-flying Vegas life. The idea is you are partying in a hot tub with a few friends and playing a few slot machines. While there are only 3 to choose from there is a variety of ways to win that should keep most gamblers happy for a while (I’m sure more tables will be added in the future).
My own experience of this game was pretty short lived and my money (You start with $200,000) was short lived. But then again I did go at it like a bull in a China shop, others should take their time and make the fun last a little longer. With global scores and friend interactions, this is designed to be a social gambling game. One that is more fun than serious gambling.
I’m always surprised at how much revenue and players games of this type have and I am sure Slot Tub Party will gain a good following of fun loving gamblers that will love it. It’s like a mini party and those who have always dreamed of that high-flying Vegas lifestyle, this might well fulfil their dreams. For the rest of us it’s just a bit of silly fun.
