Multi-player online slots are a comparatively recent addition to online casino gaming. Like multi-player table games they allow players to wager simultaneously on the same game. But in multi-player table games each player’s wins or losses are dependent solely in his game play. In multi-player slots players can share the rewards activated by other players. This article reviews two multi-player online slots from the leading software provider Playtech.

The first multi-player Playtech slot is titled Fishing with Buddies. Up to five players can wager on this slot machine at the same time. Each player starts by playing the main game on his own, but can see the screen of the other players. In Fishing with Buddies a two-stage bonus round is triggered randomly at the same time for all players. It is here that the multi-player aspect comes into effect. In the first stage the players choose Bears, who catch fish and reward their players with bonus credits. Players who have wagered more in the main game will receive larger bonuses. The three players who receive the highest bonuses get to release the fish caught by them and receive additional bonus credits.

The second Playtech multi-player slot machine offers a progressive jackpot and is titled Everybody's Jackpot. The slot game has an eight paylines structure that is unique to Playtech. The theme is of a game show that is being conducted by a suave host and a beautiful hostess. The multi-player feature is the Mystery Progressive Jackpot, which can be triggered randomly after any spin. The eligibility requirement for a share of this progressive jackpot is wagering at least 50 credits on this game in the last 24 hours. As you play Everybody’s Jackpot, a meter on the screen displays how much more you need to wager in order to qualify. The player whose spin triggers the progressive jackpot wins 70% of amount of the jackpot. 15% is shared equally among all other qualified players. The remaining 15% is distributed amongst qualified players in proportion to their bets during the last 24 hours. The qualified players receive the share even if they are not currently playing or even if they have logged off. This is the biggest advantage of Everybody’s Jackpot.

Both these multi-player slots games are live at all Playtech online casinos. Winner Casinos recommends Omni Casino, Bet365 Casino and Mansion Casino. These online casinos are fully licensed and regulated and offer a fair and safe wagering environment.
