Dobrik has 18.4 million subscribers on YouTube.Īnd with tens of millions still out of work thanks to Covid-19, I can see this being popular.īut, can I ask.

YouTuber David Dobrik will be hyping the giveaway, which should help. The game is currently ranked #8 in Casino games by Apple: a big surge in downloads this week could boost that ranking significantly. Press Play Slots is betting that enough people will like the game and stay in the game to recoup the massive costs of the giveaway. “We don't ask for any money from our users ever and there are no in-app purchases. “We are flipping the script on traditional, hyper casual games,” the founder and investor told me. But it’s not gambling per se: you never risk any money. The core Press Play Slots game is - no surprise - a slots game. If you’re one of the first 20 people to beat the game, you’ll still win $10,000.

Failing that, you can keep trying to beat the game. To win the grand prize of $1 million, you’ll have to play a portal game in the app and unlock all 25 portals - which, according to what I’ve heard, is significantly hard - on your very first try. and gives the west coast crowd a time advantage. Which, I guess, makes it a little tougher to participate early if you’re on the east coast. The contest starts next Friday October 9 at 11 PM Eastern.
