Jurassic Park and Jurassic World slots no longer available to UK players?

[goatwack]

It's a purging alright, made all the more baffling as many of those aren't directly movie-licenced and simply original works!

Short of speculating on any rationale behind it, such as paying the 75p it costs to keep them running, it just seems like good old-fashioned downscaling, whereby these titles are played by a select few, or just deemed not zany enough for a modern player base because they don't depict hangings etc.

As much as I acknowledge the classic status of Cashapillar, Tomb Raider and even the formative slotting joy experienced on the (for me outstanding) Silver Fang, ain't no one playing them no more.

A lot of these titles excelled when paired with the 'MG Download lobby times' and just look broken and devoid of purpose since their 'conversions' from Flash anyway. So ultimately sad, but not surprising

TombRaider has gone!??? As in the original Microgaming circa 2004 TombRaider!?

Say it isn't so. I LOVED that game, even more than I loved the original Thunderstruck. Well, this definitely means I won't be looking to get my GamStop exclusion lifted anytime soon then.

Here's a minute or so of nostalgia for you - those sounds just coming back to me....

Hey, here's one for @chopley and his Push Gaming 'same spin' affair?

I just noticed the base game spin at 0:12 in the video above produces EXACTLY the same spin as occurred in the second free game during the bonus at 1:36..........

Do I win £500?

They're ALL bent these slots I tells ya....

AND the base game spin at 0:06 in the video above produces EXACTLY the same spin as occurred in the first free game at 1.29.............

Do I win £500 too?

And yeah....they ARE ALL FUCKING BENT. MORE BENT THAN A ROYAL MINT FULL OF NINE BOB NOTES AND TUPPENCEFARTHINGS......

Don't be silly guys! Its all random reel strips that are landing in random positions every time you click the spin button.

This is what they would like you to believe, But it is total bollocks, on most of the newer games especially.

Each spin is just a lottery ticket now and what plays out on the screen has fuck all to do with reels spinning and landing in certain positions.

Guessing the above is said with tongue wedged firmly in cheek, however note "Showcase Casino" in the bottom left of the screen. Pretty sure this is the demo version of Viper that was used at trade shows etc...

You're right, it is.

Just chirping in with my 2p here, I agree some of the obvious ones here are because of licencing agreements coming to an end, but I think the main thing here is there's no longer a "release and forget" for game providers so there is a cost associated with keeping them alive.

Removing free spins, feature buys, reducing spin speed etc - each change takes a long time and they'd rather spend their time investing into new content - especially when a lot of the older games were built on old technology.

I am not sure how much of an exaggeration it was, but I remember asking about a particular slot once and if it could be re-skinned for a branded game. The game provider basically said it's not possible as they no longer have the game files/code only the end product. It may have been a lie, but it wouldn't surprise me!

Time for an international free play casino slots museum to be set up, where all old, discontinued slots from back to the dawn of online gambling could live on in peaceful retirement, forever. Spinning away gently on tides of nostalgia.

Costs could be ad-funded or maybe allow buying extra "play money" like in socials.

Jurassic world has vanished from all british, as has mg's Happy holidays only noticed because i will occasionally play those two, they both had unmodified RTPs.

I was really looking forward to Jurassic Park today as I am playing through a bonus at CR. I think Immortal Romance has given all it intends to for a bit.

So far it's been a terrible day. The hospital cafeteria no long makes fries, one thing I don't make at home, and I never go out. Then I am using their automated coffee station. Nowhere does it say to put cup under first, and the cups are PAST the machine. So paid full price for 1/2 cappucino that was not very good.

And now Jurassic Park is gone. Heartbreaking.
