Featured Slot: Cleopatra's Gold
Many Americans who visit Las Vegas will probably be more than
familiar with IGT's Cleopatra slot game, now part of the IGT online video slots armoury too,
but it's a sad fact that IGT don't allow US players to play any of their casino games online.
However, the "Cleopatra's Gold" video slot (above) is identical in game play, having 5 reels, wilds and scatter
symbols that award 15 free spins where all wins are trebled and what's more, it's available
at "US friendly" casinos (see right)! It spins a little slower than the IGT slot,
but it's one of the better US-friendly video slots online nonetheless.
Slotjunkies & Me!
I'm a website developer by trade and an avid slots player during my spare time, both at land-based
casinos and online. I grew up with UK style pub fruit machines for my sins and video slots were just
a natural progression I guess!
It was my first trip to Las Vegas in 2006 that really got the creative juices flowing and Slotjunkies arose out of the ashes of that trip. And ashes they were as I totally burned through my bankroll playing at the Golden Nugget and Wynn! But it was a blast and I now return every year to see the latest slot machines and play some old favorites.
Clearly the online slots scene has come on in leaps and bounds since then. IGT bought Wagerworks while WMS, Aristocrat and Novomatic have all started porting their land slots to online and the dedicated online slots manufacturers like Playtech and Microgaming have really upped their game. The whole idea of the Slotjunkies website and it's subsiduary sites is to categorize and detail as many online video slots as I possibly can!
I make videos of each slot and pretty much every one of them shows the feature round in action. Usually this is a free spins feature - my favorite - and I try my best to grab a decent win in them for entertainment value! Some of these are real money play, others are fun money play depending on my financial situation at the time. Hey look, you don't make a living playing slots you know!

Because of legislation (2006), the choice of online casinos is far more limited for
slots players based in the USA, so it pays to know where you can play safely. Slotjunkies will
hopefully help you to find a good, safe online casino to play your favourite slot games.
All the video slots above are available online at casinos that take US players,
and pretty much all of these games have free spins too! You might not be able to play IGT's Cleopatra,
but there are some very similar casino games created by RTG which are
available to US players at casinos licensing their software. Check out the videos above.

Down the years I've lost my fair share of cash playing slot machines online it must
be said, and I'd hardly call myself a winner, but I've had my share of big win adrenaline rushes too.
Mainly because I prefer playing high variance slots which is a risk/reward
thing!
I've put together a gallery of slot wins featuring some of my best wins on 5 reel video slots for you to check out. If you decide to follow my lead and aim at the jackpots, then please play sensibly and make sure you select from these online casinos as not only are they all safe, established operations but as long as you play by the rules, you should have no problems cashing out.

Video Slots - Online Developments
With the online gambling industry moving at a fast pace and the US politicians starting to look like they might cash in uner a regulated umbrella, we're starting to see a few subtle moves, including one or two in the video slots sector. Most notably, a number of popular WMS slots that will be familiar to Vegas-goers in particular, including "Zeus" and the "Wizard of Oz" slots, are now available to play online. IGT of course are already there and many of their online video slots are already here on the Slotjunkies site, but it won't be long before we see WMS, Novomatic and slot games from other prominent land-based developers in online casinos.Also, expect to see more brand licensing going on. We've already seen Playtech slots featuring film footage from the film "Gladiator", "King Kong" and characters from Marvel comics, along with some novel video slots from Microgaming, such as "Tomb Raider" and more recently the "Lord of the Rings" progressive game. This will undoubtedly become a more popular concept as competition grows, the US comes online and Vegas joins in the party. Watch this space!
