It’s been a year in which the online gaming industry has seen a massive boom, with many people having much more spare time on their hands. With all of that spare time, people have been looking for new hobbies and one of the most popular has been playing online slots. It can be tough to figure out what slot game you want to play online though, as there are a plethora of games to choose from, as well as providers to play them on. Here, we’ll take you through some of the biggest and best online slots from 2020.

Starburst

A classic in the world of online slots, Starburst has been around since 2012 and its ability to remain one of the most popular slots out there is a testament to developer NetEnt’s eye for creating evergreen games. Featuring five reels and a colorful, vibrant theme, Starburst was originally designed to be played on a desktop. As the landscape of online gaming has shifted over the course of the last decade, it too has been adapted and optimized for mobile and tablet devices. Its stunning aesthetics are complimented nicely by its simplistic play style, with a basic wilds bonus feature increasing your chances of winning big. It’s the perfect game if you’re new to online slots and are keen to see what all the fuss is about.

Buffalo Blitz

This video slot from gaming developer giants Playtech is set in the North American grasslands. Featuring 6 reels and stakes ranging from 40p all the way up to £80, you can take a walk on the wild side with a selection of lower value playing cards accompanied by a collection of wild animals including bears, raccoons, elks, and more. As the name of this slot game suggests, the buffalos are the most valuable and lucrative symbols, while the diamonds represent wilds. Hit the free game feature to land up to 100 free spins and boost your winnings 2, 3, 4, or even 5 times over. This simple, easy to play game has proved so popular that Playtech released a sequel, Buffalo Blitz II, in the summer of 2020.

Gonzo’s Quest

Set in Mayan times, Gonzo’s Quest is NetEnt’s first platinum release and features 5 reels and 20 paylines. It can be played from as little as 20p, with its Avalanche Reels up to a 5x multiplier for every winning spin. Helping the protagonist of the game, Gonzalo Pizarro (Gonzo), traverse the Amazon jungle in the search for El Dorado, the reels display stone tablets depicting animals such as snakes, birds, alligators, and fish, as well as masks and symbols representing the moon, fire, and health. The theme music is quite catchy and Gonzo is entertainingly animated, even doing a little dance whenever you win! If you’d like to test the game before placing any real money, you can play the free version of the game to get to grips with it before beginning your adventure. Released in 2011, this game was ahead of its time and truly set the tone for avalanche reel slots.

If you’re looking to start out with online slots gaming, you should begin with these games that prove every year to be the most popular around.
