5 Quick Tips to Help Play the Slots
If you find games are not working please read this page:
1: Try Clearing the Cache
Sometimes games seem to work the first time you open them, then not the next time. if you clear the browser's cache, they can sometimes suddenly work again.
But this can be frustrating, because when yu clear the cache, it might log you out of other apps you are using. Like Facebook or something like that.
So one thing you can do, is use a differnet browser to play the free slot games on. So maybe your normal browser is Chrome or Safari, and you could tehn download and use Firefox instead.
On iPhones, and Android Phones:
Firefox is the best browser to use, because clearing the cache is so easy With Firefox, you can set it to automatically clear cache when you close it on Phones (iOS & Android).
How to Use Firefox and Set It to Auto-Clear Cache:
- Download Firefox from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android).
- Open Firefox and go to > Menu (Hamburger symbol) > Settings.
- Tap Data Management (iOS) or Delete browsing data on quit (Android).
- Enable "Delete browsing data on quit".
Now, every time you close Firefox, the cache will be cleared automatically. And with figers crossed, when you open the browser back up, the game will work again!
On Computers (Windows & macOS):
Option 1: Use Firefox with Auto-Clear Cache Download Firefox from mozilla.org.
- Open Firefox, then go to: > Menu > Settings > Privacy & Security
- Scroll to Cookies and Site Data.
- Check the box for "Delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed.
- Scroll down to History, and under "Firefox will", select: Use custom settings for history
- Check "Clear history when Firefox closes"
- Click the "Settings" button next to that option. Check Cache. Click OK.
Now, every time you close Firefox, the cache is cleared, and the game will start fresh when you open the browser again!
Option 2: Manually Clear Cache (All Browsers)
If you want to use your regular browser just once in a while, here's how to manually clear the cache:
Chrome (Desktop)
- Go to Menu > More Tools >Clear Browsing Data
- Select "Cached images and files" only
- Click Clear Data
Safari (Mac)
- Go to Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data
- Click Remove All
2: You have Cookies Blocked on Your Browser
Some game providers the games need to know which country people are from, so they can load a game that will work in your country. To do that, they need to check your location using a (totally safe) cookie in the browser.
If cookies are turned off in your browser, the games might not work.

3: The Game Does not Work in Your Location
Some casinos do not allow their games to be played in certain countries.
In most cases, the game will tell you if they do not provide games for your location, with a message saying something like "not available in your country"
The only way to get around this, that we know of, is to use something called a VPN. You can use a VPN to load the game from a country where the game can been enjoyed without being blocked.
There are lots of VPN services around and the ones you pay for tend to be much better than the free ones (they are faster and more reliable, so the games work better).
Our visitors tell us that the best VPN locations are generally Canada, USA and Germany.
Following regulatory change in the UK (banning free games), a UK VPN is no good any more.
4: Your Internet Connection is Slow
Sometimes a game doesn't seem to work because the interent connection is too slow. In many cases, you just have to wait for an age, but once it loads, it works fine.
Some games we have tested on very poor internet connections take over a minute to load, whereas with a good connection they took less than 5 seconds.
So, it is worth waiting a while. If is hasn't loaded after a minute, try refreshing the page and hopefully it will work the second time you try.
5: The Game is Down
Sometimes the casinos that provide the free slots need to do essential maintenance or upgrade the game.
This is really frustrating, because we never know when this will happen and there is nothing we can do about it.
The only thing to do in this situation is to try again later. Maybe play some other slots and come back to the one that was not working on a different day.
