4 reasons to check out Hit the 5! Casino - Webzen’s free-to-play Vegas simulation

A little piece of Las Vegas has come to Android devices as Webzen’s Hit the 5! Casino has rolled out its array of digital slot machines for the game’s launch. European players will need to wait a little longer for the game, but that shouldn't stop you reading on to find out why you should give Hit the 5! Casino a spin as soon as it arrives.

If the chance to sample the delights of Nevada’s glitzy gambling hotspot from anywhere in the world isn’t enough for you, here are four more reasons why you should give it a try.

Bets that won’t break the bank

One of the biggest drawbacks of hitting the slots in Vegas - or any casino on the planet, for that matter - is the heavy toll it can take on your bank balance. Many a gambler has headed for the bright lights of the Nevada city and returned without so much as the shirt on their back, but there’s no risk of that with Hit the 5! Casino.

The game costs nothing to download and play, as it hands out free bonus coins for you to feed into those slots each day. Progression is tied also tied to achievements, so players who are against the idea of in-app purchases can advance through gameplay alone.

A social slot experience

You don’t need to be rubbing shoulders with fellow slot machine enthusiasts for a social casino experience. Hit the 5! Casino has players covered in that respect by giving them the chance to compete in intense tournaments with other users from around the world. Meanwhile, those seeking deeper social features can take advantage of the gift exchange system to swap rewards with other virtual casino dwellers.

Themed slots and storylines

Nobody can accuse Webzen of lacking imagination or ambition when putting Hit the 5! Casino’s digital slot machines together. You won’t see any vanilla designs or generic symbols on the spin here - each machine comes with its own unique theme and storyline.

Hera the Goddess is a Greek mythology-themed slot, while Moon Wolf has you lining up mystical wolves and lunar symbols. Coin Fever, meanwhile, is built for those who prefer the classic casino experience, free of any narrative components.

New features incoming

Downloading Hit the 5! Casino is sure to pay dividends because Webzen has promised to keep dishing out new content. Another slot machine called The Lupin was added during soft launch, and several new gameplay features are in the pipeline to keep things fresh.

With all of the above in mind, you’ll be itching to give Hit the 5! Casino a whirl, so allow us to point you in the right direction. The game can be downloaded from Google Play now.
