The one thing I think is pretty crazy is the way slot providers are allowed to release slots that give very little info to the player
Especially slots that have some sort of progressive component like Wild Swarm . Is there any info about how often the swarm is activated ? Does it say anything about changing bet size and how this affects the game ? What about the rtp before the hive is activated compared to afterwards ? Idk if all this stuff is written anywhere but it seems like players are used to just pressing the spin button and seeing what happens
Maybe it's also the fault of the players for not reading the rules thoroughly but I think there needs to be a lot more transparency about the mechanics of games and the payouts
There is as much transparency as there needs to be. Giving too much information can be counter-productive. Not giving enough is a compliance issue.
Why should we have to tell you how often a feature is? I could make a game that has a feature every 500 spins but plays really well the rest of the time. But if I tell you that it might put you off trying it .. so no, I don't think that is information players need or, except for a very vocal minority, want.
Are there some areas we as an industry could improve on... Sure. But there needs to be an air of mystery about some things...
