Did you know that Flappy Bird is being made into an arcade game? Soon, you will be able to play the addictive mobile game on arcade cabinets in amusement centres around the world.
In honor of this exciting news, we thought up a list of the best arcade game slots that add an exciting gambling twist to traditional arcade games.
Space Invaders
When you think of classic arcade games, Space Invaders is the title that immediately comes to mind. OpenBet has developed an online slots title based on this classic game, and the company has done a fantastic job in recreating the experience.
The symbols and sounds are taken directly from the original game. So, you’ll feel just like you’re playing Space Invaders on an arcade cabinets – with the added bonus of potentially winning cash prizes.
The bonus rounds are also based directly on the original arcade game. In the Mystery Ship bonus, you must shoot down a ship to win free spins. You can also trigger the Invaders Bonus, after collecting five cannons. In this round, you are transported to an actual round of Space Invaders in which you must shoot down enemy ships for prizes!
Street Fighter
Street Fighter is the most popular fighting arcade game in history. So, it is no wonder that Cryptologic decided to base a slot machine on this title. Street Fighter II is an arcade games slots title which features all of the most popular characters from the early Street Fighter series. Ryu, Ken, Sagat and M, Bison are all present on the reels as symbols.
There are also symbols that represent other characters, such as Chun-Li’s cuffs, Dhalsim’s skulls and Vega’s blades.
To begin, you pick the character of your choosing (the choices are Ryu, Ken, Sagat, Chun-Li and Guile). This character will then be the wild symbol for the rest of the game. We thought that there would be an actual fighting bonus round, but the bonus game only consists of free spins.
House of the Dead
You can’t walk into any modern arcade without seeing a House of the Dead cabinet. This frustrating but engaging game is ubiquitous in arcades, and now it is also available as a slots game.
Developed by IGT, House of the Dead features zombies, giant spiders and other horrible creatures from the original title. It is a 243 Ways to Win game, so it presents plenty of great winning potential.
