Slotland Offers a New Type Of Linked Progressives

Published : 18th of August, 2004

When IGT launched Megabucks it was the first game to link jackpots between different casinos. This lead to more rapidly growing and frequently hit jackpots. The idea quickly caught on among all other manufacturers and the rest is history. Slotland however have taken the idea one step further.

Instead of having different games with different jackpots, all of the games at Slotland are connected to the one jackpot. This means that no matter which game you play you still vying for the same jackpot. This is an idea that could in theory change the face of slot gambling forever. Imagine if every slot game in Vegas was linked - we would see jackpots in the hundred of millions.

A spokesperson for Slotland had this to say about their unique approach to jackpots, "Slotland is about listening to our players. Most casinos require download, Slotland is instant play. Our players wanted a progressive that could be won on any game - this is what we have given them".
