Slot players will get this, sometimes that big bomb symbol drops, and you’re already thinking “this is it,” but nope… no tumble, nothing connects. Then you sit there thinking, “Damn, that was close,” and next thing you know, you’re still spinning, chasing that moment again.

So what do you think, just coincidence, or a little design magic to keep us hooked? I know they’ll say it’s all fair and random, but you can’t tell me the devs didn’t factor this in when making the game. After all, nothing keeps a gambler glued to the screen like almost winning.

I prefer to believe those near misses are a regular of randomness and the chances playing in favor of the casino in the last second, in both ways: not having to pay us any money and also psychologically getting us more hooked to their services.

I also think they are normal. I play gacha video games which its mechanic is similar to slot games. I always hit near misses whenever I want to get the most prized jackpot. I never got feel cheated as I see other people experience the same situation as mine.

Considering its business side, it's understandable since that is the main goal when you have a casino business. As you've said, you need to get hooked your customers and keep them spending money on your platform.
