To make things easier, we will split it into two parts: New Land Based and New Online Slots. Let’s start with Land Based:
Frogger Machine For Sale
The biggest current trend in slots industry is Skill Based slots. It’s not something new, there were skill based slots in the past, but as 2015 G2E showed, Skill Based games are no longer a trend, but the next big thing.
As you will see below, slots developers found a shortcut and they don’t afraid to use it. You take a classic arcade game, add 5 spinning reels and you are good to go. Easier than to invent a new game from scratch. We are sure this will change soon as well (Can’t wait to see Gamblit slots hit the casino floors).
Skill Based Slots
The Space Invaders
One of the most popular Arcade games making its way to Vegas casinos. Developed by Scientific Games, this slot offers all the classic slots features, combined with skill based bonus game. The regular mode is similar to any other slot you played, but when the bonus is triggered, you have two options. You can go with regular bonus game or to choose the skill based bonus. Naturally, you will need to play the original Space Invaders game to win prizes, money and free spins.
Frogger slot
Another Arcade classic. Considering the popularity of Frogger, it’s surprising it took so long. The game will feature Konami’s tall-top Podium Monument™ cabinet and of course a bonus round based on the original game.
Texas Tea Pinball
As you might have guessed, this is a combination of one of IGT most popular slots, Texas Tea, and Pinball. Here as well it is a regular slot, until you hit the bonus and then you can choose which way to go: luck or to try and win money by playing Pinball.

The object of the game is to direct frogs to their homes one by one. To do this, each frog must avoid cars while crossing a busy road and navigate a river full of hazards. Skillful players may obtain some bonuses along the way. The game is regarded as a classic from the golden age of video arcade games and was noted for its novel gameplay and theme.
The player starts with three, five, or seven frogs (lives). The player guides a frog which starts at the bottom of the screen. The lower half of the screen contains a road with motor vehicles, which in include cars, trucks, buses, dune buggies, bulldozers, vans, taxis, bicyclists , and/or motorcycles, speeding along it horizontally.
The upper half of the screen consists of a river with logs, crocodiles, and turtles, all moving horizontally across the screen. The very top of the screen contains five “frog homes” which are the destinations for each frog. Every level is timed; the player must act quickly to finish each level before the time expires.
The only player control is the joystick used to navigate the frog; each push in a direction causes the frog to hop once in that direction. On the bottom half of the screen, the player must successfully guide the frog between opposing lanes of trucks, cars, and other vehicles, to avoid becoming roadkill. The middle of the screen, after the road, contains a median where the player must prepare to navigate the river.
By jumping on swiftly moving logs and the backs of turtles, the player can guide his or her frog safely to one of the empty lily pads. The player must avoid crocodiles, snakes, and otters in the river, but may catch bugs or escort a lady frog for bonuses. When all five frogs are directed home, the game progresses to the next, harder level. After five levels, the game gets briefly easier yet again gets progressively harder to the next fifth level.
