Can The Magic Of Sin City Conquer The Cell Phone?

The magic, glitz, and glamour of Las Vegas is alive and well with millennials. This time, Vegas is betting the house on getting them to gamble on slots rather than their phones.

When it comes to millennials, technology and extreme cell phone usage normally come to mind. But surprisingly, the classic slot machines from Sin City are resonating with today's millennials, even drawing them in.

What's hooking the millennial generation to Las Vegas-style slot machines are the same factors that led to the fervor of the hit cell phone game, "Candy Crush."

Instead of developing game apps for millennials to become addicted to on their phones, slot machine vendors are now considering copying popular mobile games to be played on slot machines themselves.

Gamblit Gaming Leads the Way

One such company up to the task is Gamblit Gaming. They have already converted popular digital games to slot machines for Caesars Entertainment casinos in San Diego and Las Vegas, aiming to lure millennials away from their phones and get them to spend money on real-life slot machines.

Surprisingly, many millennials have no problem buying meals and drinks at casinos but prefer to gamble on their cell phones.
