kiosks. Picking the right tools will allow you to keep your investment smaller and your ROI margin higher.
When choosing the types of gamified promotions you want to present to the players, remember they all have different motivations. Ensure you are taking into account that different age groups are going to want to engage in different game types, and will have different motivations you need to provide gamification for.
So, when you design a campaign, pick out three-five different promos that will be made available to different demographics with a focused appeal. Te actual rewards and earn criteria can be set up similarly. It’s important to make sure you are allowing them to engage in the channel they are most comfortable with; Promotional kiosks, web, mobile, at the EGM, and in person.
Remember, the same game can become stale, so we have to make sure to switch it up and use games from similar categories, in lieu of letting the same games run repeatedly.
Tis next section I will address: what needs to be realised about gamification?
When Nick Pelling coined the term ‘gamification’ in 2002 he was taking the principles he had learned as a game designer and realising they could be applied to different task-based experiences. He saw this as a way to make mundane tasks a better experience.
Many folks did try to gamify everything! Tis is a mistake. Gamification often doesn't work when it's used in situations where the task itself is not inherently engaging, when users don't feel a genuine sense of purpose or intrinsic motivation to participate, when the gamification elements feel forced or manipulative, when the rewards are not meaningful, or when the target audience is not properly considered and engaged with the gamified experience.
Essentially, when it's used as a superficial tactic to try and motivate people to do something they don't actually want to do.
FOCUS YOUR GAMIFICATION STRATEGY
Strategic Integration with Core Games: Gamification elements should seamlessly integrate with the existing casino games and online slots, rather than feeling like a separate entity. Tink integrated bonus rounds, progressive jackpots tied to
Focus on Fun and Entertainment: Ultimately, gamification should enhance the entertainment value. If it feels like a chore or a thinly veiled attempt to extract more money, it's likely to backfire.
Gamification has become a powerful tool in the iGaming and casino industry, used to enhance player engagement, drive loyalty, and create more immersive experiences. From tiered loyalty programs to interactive slot tournaments, casinos and online platforms are leveraging game-design elements to attract and retain patrons. However, this landscape is constantly evolving, presenting both opportunities and challenges specific to this unique environment.
Te key to effective gamification in this context lies in understanding the specific motivations and age demographics of casino and iGaming patrons. While some may be driven by the thrill of competition, others seek entertainment and escapism. Overdoing it can lead to player fatigue and even resentment, especially if the gamification feels manipulative or detracts from the core gaming experience.
My advice is: try to take a more nuanced approach focusing on enhancing – not overshadowing – the existing offerings and give them the option of channels so they can choose when, how, and where they engage with your brand.

Meaningful Rewards: Rewards should be relevant and valuable to the target audience. Tis could include free spins, bonus cash, exclusive access to events, or even physical rewards for high-rollers. Understanding the player's spending habits and preferences is crucial.
