The history of the game dates back to ancient times: apart from morra, heads or tails, Roman dice and more, the first mass place where people went to play dates back to 1638. Since then, a long road of crowded and sometimes clandestine places, up to the great cathedrals of gaming that we know today (above all, Las Vegas and Atlantic City which have taken on the form of a legend, entering the collective imagination). With the advent of mobile apps, the gaming industry is currently undergoing a significant transformation, offering new, exciting and above all less unstable experiences to players.
Whether using mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets or even interactive TVs to guess the results of sporting events, or play exciting poker tournaments, the growing popularity of online gaming is due to the convenience and easy accessibility that allows players to play anywhere and at any time. But this is only one of the advantages.
The future is mobile
Mobile gaming apps offer gamers unprecedented flexibility, allowing them to choose when, where and how they play. Players can set time and spending limits to avoid losing control and protect their financial security. Mobile gaming apps also allow you to customize your gaming preferences and access a wide range of games and betting options.
Not only that: mobile gaming apps also incentivize players through different types of bonuses and promotions. Welcome bonuses and loyalty rewards that encourage players to come back and have fun. Not to mention the possibility of being able to also play in "free" mode, to fine-tune your skills or to spend some time having absolute fun, even on the move.
And can we talk about safety? An absolutely crucial factor for legal apps offering online games. These apps are designed to ensure that players' funds are protected, their privacy is respected, and that all gaming is fair and transparent. Furthermore, operators are required to constantly monitor payment service providers, especially those operating outside national borders. This player orientation is a key difference from the old way of playing, which was often viewed with suspicion and did not ensure the safety and protection of players. With modern gambling apps, players can feel safe and secure while playing and betting.
A difference that will make online gaming apps more and more the widely preferred mode. In short: for those who are still wondering, if they still have doubts, I say, it is clear that the future of legal gambling will be via apps.
And then what?
The evolution of online gaming with apps will undoubtedly be driven by continued developments in technology. There are two most likely developments in the short and medium term, to further enhance the participation and enjoyment of online players.
- “Hybrid” game. Virtual reality and augmented reality will have a huge influence on the future of online gaming. These two advanced technologies have the ability to transform the gaming experience on mobile devices, making it even more engaging, interactive and immersive. Virtual reality and augmented reality will be able to partially recreate the physicality and emotion of the game in a real place, making the experience even more authentic. This will most likely lead to the creation of virtual reality casinos, which will allow players to experience the excitement of gaming in a realistic and compelling environment, albeit directly from their own home or even on the move. Thanks to realistic graphics and sounds, VR casinos will offer players an even more exciting and engaging gaming experience.
- Blockchain Technology: it is one of the most anticipated technologies in the future of this field. It will offer numerous benefits, including greater transaction security, transparency and fairness in gaming, increasing player confidence and attracting more users to online gaming. Why? It will ensure that all transactions and game results are encrypted and recorded in an immutable ledger, eliminating the possibility of manipulation or fraud by third parties. This will increase transparency and trust in online gambling, attracting more players looking for a fair and safe gaming experience.
In short (Italian only)
A brilliant example of adaptation: to the times, to technology, to feedback from the players themselves. Yes, that's out of the question: in the future, the words "Online game" and "App" will be equivalent. We bet!
