Looking Back at the Reel World Slots Arcade Directory Launch in 2021
Updated: Sep 20
In March 2021, the site was still called Reel World Slots. The new UK amusement-arcade section grew out of a simple question: if you were heading to the seaside, where could you find the arcades before you got there?
For an enthusiast, an arcade can be one of the reasons for choosing a town. Someone looking for older fruit machines may want a different stop from a family interested in penny pushers and prize games. A place name on its own does not tell you much about either.
The new section brought arcade information into the trip-planning side of the site. It gave readers somewhere to start when choosing a resort and working out which venues to visit.
The site now uses the Spin Raiders name. The original launch belongs to 2021, but the idea is still useful: find the place, look at the individual venues and check recent information before travelling.
For a trip now, use the current directory linked below. This article records where that part of the project began.
