Sizzling Online Pokies

Our goal at Spin Vegas is pretty simple. We want to bring the most realistic, Las Vegas-like online gaming experience to players in New Zealand. Nothing evokes the bright lights and excitement of Sin City more than a big pokies win, which is why we've brought such a choice selection together just for you.

For any pokies game you spin a set of reels. When they come to rest, if the reel symbols are displayed in particular patterns known as paylines, you are paid out a multiple of whatever you bet in the first place.

The original land-based games used physical reels that were operated mechanically, but today the action is almost always simulated on a video screen, with Random Number Generation software creating the results. This is, of course, how all of our online titles work.

That's really about it, but you'll be amazed at how intriguing these games can be. If you've never played before, get ready to feel like you are in the heart of Vegas as you watch the dazzling reels spin! The different pokies types and special features add to the playing diversity and excitement.

Generally, pokies can be classified as 3-reel, 5-reel or jackpot games. The 3-reelers and 5-reelers are also known as Classic and Video Pokies. Classics are very similar to the original land-based machines, with simple graphics and symbols, minimal paylines and only 3 reels.

Their Video counterparts are far more involved, each with a central theme that is carried through in all graphics, and often into the side games too. They offer far more paylines and usually feature at least 5 reels. The detailed storylines could be based on a franchise such as Tomb Raider, or on an original idea like the Egyptian-themed Pyramid Quest for Immortality. Special features are common here, and include Free Spin Bonus Rounds, Multipliers that increase your payouts, and Wild Symbols that can substitute for any other icon to complete more paying combinations.

Progressive Jackpots can be attached to 3-reel or 5-reel titles, and are known for making players instant millionaires. They can be triggered at any time, either at random or because the symbols on the reels line up in a certain order.

Either way, if you are lucky enough to land one of these jackpots, your life will truly never be the same! Progressives continue to grow, with a portion of every single bet that is placed being added to them, until they are won. Think about how many people play at Spin Vegas, and you'll get an idea of how massive these payouts can be!

NetEnt and Microgaming are both legends in the casino software industry and they power every one of the pokies that we offer New Zealanders. That means the Random Number Generation software is audited and endorsed as totally fair, and the graphics and functionality are always perfect.

This is the same kind of quality you can expect when you visit Las Vegas, but you can get it on the screen of your desktop or mobile device! Enjoy the dazzling thrills of Sin City and get all the benefits of playing online – no queues or clogged machines, bigger bonuses and payouts, wider betting ranges and total convenience – at the same time.

All you need to do is register with Spin Vegas, make your first deposit to claim your Welcome Bonus, and then get spinning. You'll be on your way to having a great time and potentially winning huge payouts within moments.
