Hot Shot Casino
Hot Shot Casino is a free-play casino app developed by Scientific Games, one of the biggest gambling developers in the world. The company operates online casinos, land-based casino games and lotteries in many countries – so, it’s only natural that Scientific Games would venture into the social gaming market.
So far, the app has been very successful – and, with good reason. Like all social casino games, players can level up to earn more coins and unlock new games. What sets this title apart from others, is that there is a wide range of games available, many of which are directly based on land-based games.
So, players who are familiar with these titles will be more likely to choose Hot Shot Casino over other similar social casinos.
Vegas Downtown Slots
Vegas Downtown Slots is a social casino game from Playtika. Unlike Scientific Games, Playtika does not have roots in the land-based casino market. The company has partnered with land-based brands like Caesar’s Casino and The World Series of Poker – so, some land-based players may be familiar with the games offered on Vegas Downtown slots.
You will mostly recognise the games from other Playtika apps like Slotomania, another very popular social casino game.
There are plenty of slots available on Vegas Downtown Slots, but they are relatively basic. They all have different themes but the formats are very similar.
You don’t really feel like you’re getting a unique experience every time you play a new game. So, if you’re into themed slots and more modern games, you may prefer Hot Shot Casino.
