Japan Technicals Games

Pachinko machines are a somewhat different route to slot machines. These games originate from Japan, with a history of operating in gaming halls. To start with, these games were more like pinball machines or video games, but lately, have come to include slot machines. The local law has added a few more twists and turns(such as tokens that are exchanged for prizes which are exchanged for money), which luckily do not extend into the online sphere.

These games come with their own history which is perfect for someone who wants something new to play. Japan Technical Games is one of the first operators to extend the tradition towards western markets. They are one of the biggest manufacturers in Japan, so you are certainly in for a good selection once you spot a casino with their games.

A little bit about the company...

The thing about Japan Technical Games is that it’s located in Hong Kong, which is Chinese territory (one country, two systems). Obviously, this might have a thing or two to do with legislation and such. In any case, the company itself is entirely devoted to bringing the Japanese slot-culture into wider audiences. They opened up shop in 2018, and have been pushing out games at a slow but steady speed ever since.

...and a bit more about their games

All of these games, at the time of writing, follow the same basic layout of three reels with three symbol positions each. If you have played classic slots then this side of the setup is quite familiar. One of these 3-reel online pachislots is called Hawaiian Dream, check it out here.

However, the number of reels is where the similarities which classics stop. These games are packed full of extra games, such as respins, bonus games, wilds, scatters, and all sorts of superfeatures. The graphics and animations quite often feature familiar symbols but also come with tons of themed content. Music and audio effects are made to fit the theme.

High RTP and high variance are to be expected. All in all, pachinkos are clearly something different, but not too much so. We recommend that you take a look, especially as more and more companies are adding these games to their selection.
