The History of Slot Machines
Playing slots has long been one of the most exciting ways to win big and have fun, but that wasn’t always the case. Historically, slots are relatively new.
So where and when did slot machines first originate? How did they become so popular in the first place?
According to legend, the first slot machine was invented in 1894 in San Francisco. Pioneered by Charles Fey, his device, known as the Liberty Bell, features the familiar design that we’ve all come to know and love. The Liberty Bell included three spinning reels, a single pay line, and a fully automated payout system. Over the years slots have advanced with more ways to win. Today, you’ll typically find a five-reel game with 40 ways to win!
Despite the initial popularity of Fey’s invention, slot machines have undergone many transformations over the years. For example, fruit symbols were added to the slot machine’s reels in 1907. Prior to this, card symbols and suits were used.
Mills Novelty Co. created a feature in the 1920s called “Skill Stop”, where a player could push a button to stop the reels and attempt to influence a win. A feature still popular on games today.
