\"simpsons-slots\"<\/a>We’re almost to 2016, which means it won’t be long until skill-based slot machines hit Las Vegas casino floors. But what exactly can we expect from these slots, which are designed to attract more millennials? CBS affiliate Klew TV has provided a closer look with their recent report on skill slot machines.<\/p>\n

Some new games from IGT and Scientific Games are providing a glimpse of what to expect. Bonus rounds that resemble the classic game “Space Invaders” should definitely spice up people’s gaming experiences. A new slot based on “The Simpsons” will allow players to scratch off lottery tickets at the Kwik-E-Mart or try and catch doughnut sprinkles for prizes.<\/p>\n

Other intriguing slot bonus rounds that may soon be available on casino floors include Pac-Man, Guitar Hero, and quick shooting and racing games. The idea is to bring more skill and interactivity to a time-honored classic so that younger people will want to play.<\/p>\n

Despite Englman’s skepticism, it seems that the majority of the Vegas slots industry is on board with skill-based games. After all, plenty of gamemakers are working very hard to turn out new games within the next year or so. And we should know in a few years whether or not these slots are the key to entertaining millennials.<\/p>\n
