Free Slot Demo Tips

Ready to kick off? Here’s a list of our five top tips for playing free demos, and how to get the most out of these incredible games.

1. Bet with a regular stake

The full range of bet sizes is available in the demo lobby, and you may wish to play with the max bet because there’s no risk. However, this isn’t the best way to play.

Demos are designed to recreate the exact experience of playing for real money on slot sites. It’s important to always spin with bet sizes that suit a set budget.

Choose how long a session should last, plus you’ll get a proper view of what it’s like to play slots online.

2. Try a range of online slot games

With so many games to play, it makes sense to spin a variety of demos. This will help you decide what our best online slots are.

For example, we have classic casino slot games including Cleopatra and Lucky Larry’s Lobstermania 2, to innovative Megaways and progressive jackpot machines. They can all create thrilling moments when spinning the reels.

Some have fixed paylines, while others like Cluster Pays are played out on a grid with different ways to win. At Virgin Games, there’s a lot to experience.

We’d recommend picking out a selection of game types and spinning them all. That way you can see how everything works, and whether it suits your style - though we’re sure they will.
