5 Adventurous iGames to Spice Up Your Fall Play

Beyond traditional casino games, like poker, blackjack and slots, iGaming sites offer an array of games for the more adventurous. Here’s a look at some games that can help you spice up your fall play.

When it comes to online casino play, slots are usually king. Most online casino sites in New Jersey and Delaware offer hundreds of slot titles to choose from and for most players, that’s exactly what they sign on to play.

Still, every once in a while, it’s fun to shake things up a bit and try something a little different. Online casino sites are constantly searching for that next big game type to grab players’ attention. Here’s a look as some online game types you may not know much about:

1. Scratchers

These quick-action games aren’t too far removed from slots, though their real inspiration is scratch-off lottery tickets. Sites like ResortsCasino.com and BorgataCasino.com offer up several types of scratchers. Just electronically scratch off the spaces, match up the symbols and you win.

2. Bingo

This game has come a long way from when your grandma played it in the church rec center. Sites like TropicanaCasino, PalaCasino and PlaySugarHouse all offer up steady bingo action. Tropicana’s 90 ball bingo, for example, offers a Super Jackpot every game. PalaCasino is so into bingo, they created their own site at PalaBingo.com.

3. Virtual Sports

Nearly all of New Jersey’s online casino sites offer virtual sports games. Most simulate racing. Results are determined by a random number generator, but these games offer the excitement of horse, auto, motorcycle and greyhound racing. Or, you can play a game like soccer and hope your side scores the goals. Virtual sports offer a lot more to watch than slot wheels spinning.

4. Slingo

This is a hybrid game that combines slot action with bingo’s scoring. You’re still hoping to match five in a row, but this game also gives you wild cards, instant prizes and free spins. Slingo has become so popular, most online casino sites offer several versions.

5. Live Dealer

We mentioned online casino games like blackjack above, but you may not want to play a simulated electronic game. Thanks to live dealer, however, you can play a live casino game with a real dealer. GoldenNuggetCasino.com started the trend and sites like BorgataCasino and BetfairCasino.com quickly followed. It’s all the fun of live casino action, and you don’t even have to change out of your pajamas.
