Quickie Review: Lucky 7 Slots

If you are a lover of Vegas-style casino slots, then Lucky 7 Slots is the app for you. It’s only $1.99 and helps you satisfy that gambling urge from anywhere right on your iPhone.

But it’s not all flashing lights and coin drops. In fact, it’s lacking these things entirely. And for a paid application, I was expecting a bit more in terms of the glitzy offerings of a Vegas casino. Where was the pull arm or dramatic slow down of the wheels as they near your selections? What about flashing lights when you win? It just seemed very anticlimactic for me.

Even so, Lucky 7 Slots does give you that slot machine feel. You start out with 1000 credits and work your luck from there. The screen doesn’t change except for the spinning wheels and your bets and winnings. There are no other screen options. Actually, most of the screen is cluttered up with all of the options you can make to win and their credit value. Useful, sure but perhaps the entire gaming screen should have been the slot machine itself. 

This app is made by Griffin Technology and can be paired with their 5 Card Touch, as well. I hate to be such a downer, but this one just didn’t do much for me. And I love these kinds of games. It just didn’t offer anything extra to the table. I will say that the graphics and audio were clear and vivid, I just wanted more of each.

    In Vegas the wheels DO NOT slow down, if they did it is due to tampering and the play is invalid.

    Griffin got the game right. I spent many an hour in front of the real machine; I know.

    Even the real game is like this; lots of useless, unchangable, graphic at the top with the breakdown of possible rewards.

    You must have just wanted to pad your story; to come up with something to say, whether based in fact or fantasy. Do you get paid by the character??? They should try paying for accuracy of content instead. Of course your editors never do their homework and see if what their reporters are saying, in their opinions, are factual or not.

    Dude, go to Vegas. Sit in front of one of the Lucky 7 machines (and actually play the real game). Then, go home and understand the App is right.
