IGT Slot RTP List

[TheLastCylon]

After my post about Net Entertainment's listed RTP's, I was directed by Kasino King to IGT. This is the information on their games that I was able to find.

I was disappointed to find that only about 60% of the games actually have information listed. And the games that are listed have some pretty low RTP's. The median is closing in on two percentage points inferior to Net Entertainment.

The RTP ranges confused me. I thought that slots operated on an RTP that was set during the creation of the game. It's a consequence of the game's math. How can a slot have a range?

I averaged the RTP ranges to get a mean which I then plugged into the calculator.

Best: 98.14% MegaJackpots Cluedo and Monopoly
Worst: 92.52% Transformers
Mean: 94.987
Median: 94.97
Mode: 94.98

I have always found their slots to be tight. Impressive looking and some fun features but can clean your balance out pretty fast compared to the other software providers.

My favourite slot of theirs is Cleopatra but Cleopatra 2 has to be the worst sequel to a slot ever.

The RTP ranges confused me. I thought that slots operated on an RTP that was set during the creation of the game. It's a consequence of the game's math. How can a slot have a range?

A range means there are multiple configurations. For example, a Vegas casino might use a 95% configuration, whereas a casino with no competition might use a 92% configuration.

Hi all,

I'm the Interactive Casino Product Manager from IGT. I'm not sure where you are looking, but all of our games list the long term theoretical RTP in the paytable. It is usually the last slide on the paytable. I can assure you that listing the RTP on our games is standard practice and I would be surprised if any of our games didn't list the RTP.

J.B. is correct that the range usually refers to different RTP based on casino preference, juristiction, and other factors.

However, one thing I'd like to make clear is that RTP never tells you the whole story on a game. In the short term, it is more often the volatility of the slot that you are really experiencing. To use Cleopatra and Cleopatra II as an example, it is interesting to note that Cleo II has a slightly higher RTP (95.13% vs 95.02%). However, Cleo II has a much higher volatility. This means that there are more drastic highs and lows. With Cleo, you win more often but a smaller amount. With Cleo II, you can have longer dry spells, but higher payouts when you do win.

Some people like the easy ride, some like the more dramatic ride. It's all a question of what experience you are looking for. At IGT, we have slots that cater to all types of players.

Hope that helps!

Hello you,

Yes, important point.

Net Entertainment also writes something similar about their games:

....Pay-out is however just one dimension of pay-table design. Variance, hit frequency and distribution of winnings between base- and bonus game(s) are other factors to take into consideration. At Net Entertainment we have mastered the skill in pay-table design which is at the core of creating high performance games.

My fav IGT slot is Rainbow Riches (especially in slot arcades) although, unlike their online gambling cousins are restricted to a £500 jackpot for a £1 spin, I have hit the jackpot on these in every form possible, my best run was roughly 3 years ago I hit the jackpot in the arcade then popped over the road to a Lad`s bookies and hit it again on one of their multi games video machines, the following Wednesday I done exactly the same thing £2k in 8 days . It was probably well over a year before I went into the arcade again and on my very 1st spin I hit 3 Leprechauns and it made the whole road and hit the jackpot (these work different to online ones you need at least 4 Leprechauns to hit £500 as the cap on 3 is x200 bet).

Love this slot with a passion and a close 2nd is Elvis A little More Action.

One of many RR Jackpots........

That's not actually an IGT slot - it's made by Barcrest.
Sky Vegas have slots form a multitude of different suppliers, as do many other "IGT based" online casinos.

BTW, I saw at Virgin Casino the other day that they have a list of all their slots with the RTP stated next to each one in a handy list form.
I wish ALL casinos would do that!

I'm looking at your website, IGT Interactive. Some of the slots have game information PDFs available for download, others do not.

J.B. is correct that the range usually refers to different RTP based on casino preference, juristiction, and other factors.

What do you mean by jurisdiction and other factors? I'm curious about the state of online gaming throughout the world and would really appreciate any information that you can give.

However, one thing I'd like to make clear is that RTP never tells you the whole story on a game.

That's certainly true, but the RTP is the core of the game. All games are essentially mathematics, including things like variance. If I'm going to play a game, I'm going to search for the game that gives me the best math.

And while one percentage point may not make too much of a difference from the perspective of the end player, two points starts to make a difference, regardless of the game's design.

And from the perspective of the casino owner, one percentage point can equal millions in profits. So low RTP's seems to be exclusively the choice of the casino. The players would want high RTP's regardless of the other characteristics.

Some people like the easy ride, some like the more dramatic ride. It's all a question of what experience you are looking for. At IGT, we have slots that cater to all types of players.

That is an aspect of the game design I'm curious about. The games are all fundamentally mathematical. What is the quantifiable measure of volatility? Has anyone ever considered publishing that data? Would it be statistical variance? It would be very helpful for people since they would then have a number to search for based on their preferences. Currently, lots of casinos describe games as high or low variance. Without some sort of quantitative baseline, that's meaningless.

BTW, I saw at Virgin Casino the other day that they have a list of all their slots with the RTP stated next to each one in a handy list form.

Thanks for that. I would update my post to include all of the RTP's from them if I could. Virgin also appears to have higher RTP's for many games than those listed on IGT's website. For example, Virgin's version of Transformers is nearly 3% better. It's still not as good as Net Entertainment, but better.

Hi Bonkerjerks

Can you tell me why some games have RTP set to a range on the IGT paytables? For example, on Siberian Stormm it shows as "92.52% - 96%"? Logically I'd guess that it is because different casinos can request different RTP settings?

That's not actually an IGT slot - it's made by Barcrest.

Being a bit pedantic, Barcrest was actually owned until very recently by IGT. I think it was sold to Scientific Games back-end of 2011.
