Wink Slots Review

I understand that slot games are enjoying a consistent increase in popularity, and have been doing so for recent years, but table and card games are still the biggest market in the online casino world, by some distance as well, so it will never make a lot of sense to me that so many sites opt to put the words ‘slots’ or ‘spins’ in their names.

It just seems like a sure-fire way to turn off customers who are looking for other gaming options, which is doubly odd when a site does actually offer these games. This is the case with Wink Slots, a site that offers a good selection of table and card games, but how would you know if all you heard was the name?

Now, to be fair, Wink Slots has seen its own popularity grow as of late, and is proving that it is more than capable of succeeding in enticing players to join its community, but one still feels like maybe there’d be a higher rate of new customers if the site didn’t advertise itself as at least slots focused, if not slots exclusive.

Design and theme

The banner at the top of the page at the Wink Slots site predominantly incorporates images from games available at the site, along with a blue-suited chap who has a smile that is probably supposed to look charming, but in fact appears vaguely sinister.

The television adverts that Wink slots have put out over recent years are mentioned with an ‘as seen on TV’ slogan, which is a sensible choice, because it reminds players they have seen this site on television, which, rightly or wrongly, adds a certain level of gravitas to the site.

It is the done thing these days to have thumbnails on the homepage allowing one-click access to available games at an online casino, and these are present in abundance at Wink Slots, meaning that you can get to a strong percentage of popular games instantly, which is a definite positive.

Outside of the bold colours within the banner, and the designs of the separate thumbnails, the rest of the Wink Slots site is mainly white, meaning that the colour scheme is not too intense or distracting, and allowing the games to take centre-stage, something else that is becoming popular for online casino sites.

All in all, this is a good-looking site, it isn’t the best design you’ll ever find, but it’s good enough.

Games

If you make slots your focus, then you have to offer a lot of them, and with games coming from software developers such as 888, Eyecon, IGT Interactive, NetEnt, NYX Gaming, OpenBet, PariPlay, SG Gaming, and Williams Interactive there is certainly a good amount of choice and variety here, but it feels like there could be more.

That being said, you can enjoy jackpot slots like Millionaire Genie, Mega Fortune, and more, old favourites including Rainbow Riches, Starburst, and Jack and the Beanstalk, and new releases such as Wild Wild West: The Great Train Heist, and Sharknado. Basically, if you are a slots fan, you will find games here that you love, games that you’ve wanted to try, and games that you’ve never heard of, which is a good combination for the hardcore slots player.

As mentioned earlier, it isn’t all about slots here, you’ll find a good mix of table and card games thrown in as well, but they do seem a little like an afterthought, as the name suggests, this site is a slots site.

Wink Slots is a good site, and it will continue to enjoy its popularity, but with a few more software developers, and a bit more range in gaming options, it’d be substantially better.
