Designing Slot Machines for Engagement

Slot machines have evolved significantly and now resemble video games. Different styles of slot machines are available in casinos, including licensed properties like Batman or Kiss. Sound designers create engaging music that is anticipatory and prevents listener fatigue. The goal is to draw players in and keep them playing, without being annoying or fatiguing.
