Why are fruit themed slots so enduringly popular more than 125 years since the first fruit slot machine, the Liberty Bell?
Fruit slots have maintained their popularity throughout their long history and have become even more so over the years because they are simple games that people of all ages can play and enjoy at any time. Teir concept is easy for players to understand. Te fruit symbols are an expression of health and fertility and accordingly instill a positive attitude and continuity on the part of the players. Another reason is that most fruit slots come with low volatility, meaning they pay out frequently.
What are the key elements in creating successful fruit themed games in 2022?
Keeping a balance between simplicity and just a few new features for an element of surprise is key. GameArt also adds fresh mechanics and game logic to the titles to keep players engaged.

Younger generations are new to the fruit theme, and it is harder to get them onboard because they see slots on twitch and social media that are predominantly high and super high volatile with a huge potential of winning with small stakes.
Tat is not possible to achieve with simple fruit games like the ones we are releasing, which have a completely different math model. Anyway, we try to get as many people as possible playing via tournaments and gamification, which is a perfect way to hit the majority of players of any age at the same time.
