Who Is Behind Slots.info?
My name is Maxime, and from my home in beautiful Freiburg, Germany, my passion for slots goes way back. In 2009, I launched my very first site dedicated to them. It was a German-only project that I poured my heart into, and three years later, I sold it.
After that, I explored other ventures in the tech world, but I never forgot the excitement of the slots community. So when the chance to acquire Slots.info came up in August 2024, it felt like coming home.
The new mission is simple: to create the best, most up-to-date, and most honest resource for slots players on the web. We’ve redesigned everything, added hundreds of new and upcoming slots, and built a foundation to keep you informed for years to come.
This is more than just a relaunch; it’s a promise. Welcome to the new Slots.info. We’re glad you’re here.
More Than Just a Spin: The Engineering of Excitement
My fascination with slots goes beyond just a hobby; it’s rooted in a love for thrill-seeking.
My passion truly ignited as the games themselves evolved. When developers introduced cluster pays, it completely changed the game. Suddenly, rigid paylines were gone, replaced by a massive grid where you could root for symbols to connect from anywhere. It made the experience more social—you could actually watch with friends and cheer as the clusters formed and triggered huge chain reactions.
Then came the Bonus Buy feature, another game-changer. It catered directly to the thrill-seeker in me, offering a way to skip the grind and jump straight into the heart-pounding action of a game’s main feature. This constant evolution, the increasing complexity, and the potential for unforgettable moments is what I love. It’s that deep appreciation for well-designed excitement that we bring to every review on Slots.info.
The Mission
While my personal passion lies in the thrill of high-volatility games, I founded Slots.info with a much broader mission. Our goal isn’t to tell you what to play, but to give you the clearest, most accurate information so you can decide what’s right for you.
We do this by focusing on three core principles:
- Comprehensive Data: We meticulously gather and centralize information on thousands of slots, from the simplest classics to the most complex new releases.
- Expert Verification: Our team doesn’t just copy and paste specs. We play the games to check the data and understand the experience firsthand.
- Absolute Clarity: We present our findings in a clean, easy-to-understand format. We break down complex mechanics and tell you what you actually need to know, without the hype.
Whether you’re a casual player looking for a fun theme or a seasoned veteran analyzing volatility, our promise is to be the most honest and up-to-date resource for you.
My Golden Rules for Playing Smart
The thrill of playing is only enjoyable when it’s done responsibly. To make sure I stay in control and keep it fun, I follow a strict personal code. These are my non-negotiables:
- The Budget is Sacred: I only ever play with money I have set aside for entertainment—money I can comfortably afford to lose. Once that budget is gone, the session is over. Period.
- I Never Play on a Bad Day: Gambling when you’re stressed, angry, or upset is a recipe for disaster. A clear head is essential. If I’m not in the right headspace, I don’t play.
- Slots and Alcohol Don’t Mix: For me, the enjoyment comes from the complexity and the thrill of the game itself. I need my wits about me for that. Mixing alcohol with gambling clouds judgment, and I just don’t do it.
- I Never Chase My Losses: This is the fastest way to get into trouble. The math of the game doesn’t change because you’re down. Accepting a loss and walking away is a sign of strength, not weakness.
- It’s Entertainment, Not an Income: This is the most important rule. I never, ever play to ‘win money’ in the sense of making a living. It’s a fun pastime. The moment it feels like a job or a financial solution, the line has been crossed.
A Personal Note
Living in a place like Freiburg means I have the Black Forest right on my doorstep, and it perfectly suits the two sides of my personality.
On one hand, I’m an adrenaline junkie. There’s nothing quite like the rush of a fast downhill mountain bike run or the unique freedom of paragliding high above the ground. It’s that same search for excitement that draws me to the most innovative and thrilling slots.
On the other hand, a quiet walk among the ancient trees is my way of resetting. It brings a sense of calm and clarity that is just as important as the excitement. It’s a reminder to be mindful, focused, and in control. Both of these sides are essential to who I am, and they are the foundation of what we are building at Slots.info.
Thanks for joining us on this journey.
