It seems like it can be a challenge to find your favorite games at certain casinos, especially the ones that are constantly moving things around or are just massive in size. So, do the casinos do anything to help find those games players want to play?
I wish my local casino had an app that showed you where the games were located inside the casino by typing the name or doing some sort of search. Have you come across any casinos that have apps like this? Don’t even know if that’s a thing or not. Love watching your videos!

In a previous article we shared some of the Slot Finder options we’re aware of. Most of them are provided by larger organizations, such as the slot makers or big casino chains. Most of them don’t tell you where in a casino they are, but just the fact that they are there.
But many don’t even do that, if our recent poll on Brian Christopher’s YouTube page is any indication. More than three quarters of those surveyed said there was no slot finder at their local casino.
Some casinos have attempted at times to go farther. Examples we’ve run into over time is at Bellagio, Borgata, Empire City Casino in Yonkers, NY and Live! Casino Maryland. However, they seem to have been discontinued at various points.
The reality is these tools are notoriously hard to keep maintained. Casinos are swapping out machines all the time, and swapping games on the machines even more often. Maintaining a slot finder is a thankless job, which generally doesn’t generate much if any extra revenue for the casino.
Like many things involving casinos, though, player input can make a difference. If you wish your local casino to roll one out, let them know! If they hear from enough players on the topic, they might be willing to put the money into it.
And when you’re at a casino, we always recommend asking a slot attendant for game locations. They tend to know – they’re working on them regularly, after all – and so at least you can be pointed in the right direction by them.
