Slots Site That’s Barely Changed in 12 Years, Celebrates Birthday with Flashy Facelift

New games lobby for enhanced Flash games; Birthday Bonuses mark celebrations

lobby-newlook-1-160.jpgAlthough Slotland.com has been around since the very beginning of online casinos, other than adding new games it has changed very little. For its 12th birthday this week, the slots and video site has launched a new look that shows off its selection of one-of-a-kind games, many with newly enhanced graphics and sound effects, even better. Special Birthday Bonuses this week invite players to join in the celebrations.

“Even players that told us to never change anything are telling us that they like this little facelift,” said casino manager Michael Hilary. “It makes it much easier to browse through the games. But the basic organization is the same and our design team has kept the same comfortable look and feel that the site has had since the beginning. It’s still black with white type!”

Players get a Birthday Bonus just by logging in between October 1st and 7th. The first time they do they’ll find a free $50 automatically added to their account. Then to top off the birthday celebration, there will be a random draw where 2 players will win $1,212, 12 players will win $112 and another 48 players will win $12. Each deposit during the birthday week is one entry in the draw. Bonus and contest details are posted on the site.



This summer, Slotland introduced new enhanced versions of five of its most popular games with improved graphics and sound effects. With stunning game graphics that fill the whole screen the new games make familiar favourites more fun than ever. The re-designed games have brief video tutorials to get new players started. Five spectacular new games debuted in July: Jacks of Better, Golden 8, Reel Riot, Treasure Box and Wild Heart video poker. Since then, the new Lucky Ducts has been added.

Slotland.com currently features 16 one-of-a-kind slot machines and video poker games. Six of the most popular games are also available on mobile phones and PDAs. They’re all instant play casino games with nothing to download or install.

All of Slotland’s slot machines are tied to one progressive jackpot. Recently reset after two big wins this summer, the progressive jackpot is currently over $58,000. Meanwhile at Slotland’s sister casino, WinADayCasino.com, the jackpot recently topped $100,000.

Intertops and Global Gaming Events (GGE) have teamed up once again for what will be some of the biggest money-added tournaments ever held in the online gaming industry.

The Online Forum Challenge Mega Money Events will be a series of seven online poker tournaments over the next four months. Intertops is adding over $23,000 in amazing cash and prizes, making this the largest overall prize pool for any GGE series since it started running its massive added prize pool tournaments over four years ago.

The first set of OFC Mega Money Events kicks off in October with a $5,000 free roll on the 16th and then continues the next day with a $5.50 buy-in event with $2,000 in cash and prizes added to the prize pool. These first two tournaments will also award a total of $1,500 in prizes for the best performing affiliates.

A second set of OFC Mega Money Events will commence in November, followed by a third set in December. The last event will be a bonus $2,000 free roll for any player who plays in two of the three buy-in tournaments during the OFC Mega Money Series.

"We're all really excited to partner with Intertops once again and bring this new Mega Money Series of events to both players and affiliates alike," says Tara Wilson, GGE Director of Operations. GGE is the parent company that owns and operates flagship brand Online Forum Challenge. "This is a big moment for GGE, and we greatly appreciate Intertops for sponsoring the biggest series we have had to date. These OFC Events are such a great way for players to build their bankrolls, while the affiliates earn revenue by promoting these events with their own links.”

Players are required to pre-register for these events at Global Gaming Events (http://www.globalgamingevents.com) in order to participate in this Mega Money Event Series. Pre-registration is open right now for the first set of events, and details for all tournaments can be found on the GGE website as well.
