The monthly online game performance report, prepared by research and analytic companies Eilers & Krejcik Gaming (EKG) and Fantini Research, is out for the month of March. The data shows players’ preferences have slightly changed in March, although most of the same slots from previous months appear in the top 25 list from EKG. Crash Eruption from software vendor IGT is the most popular game for the second month. 

However, buffalo-themed slots are no longer featured among the top 5 games in EKG’s report. In the previous five months, slots such as Buffalo Stampede, Blazing Bison Gold Blitz, and Mighty Buffalo dominated the slots section of the monthly list, with several of the titles mentioned above winning the crown in December and January. 

Buffalo-themed slots are available at nearly all Michigan casinos online, an availability which has worked in these games’ favor. It’s crucial to point out that the monthly EKG report is not an all-encompassing analysis of the Great Lakes State market but rather an indication of trends. The report is compiled from data supplied by over 30 online casinos, covering over 65% of the gross gaming revenue from six US iGaming markets, including Michigan. 

The second best-performing slot on the list is Capital Gains, and 88 Fortunes is again among the top 5, this time as the third-best game in the top 25 list. According to the report, ancient civilizations seem to be a popular theme in Michigan since the fifth best slot is Cleopatra from IGT. Most games ranked on the EKG report are eligible for Michigan online casino promotions, such as welcome bonuses. 

Blackjack Still Dominates In the Table Games Category 

Blackjack remains a leader among table games, with three variants ranking among the top 5, including a live dealer version from Evolution Gaming. Developer IGT has a knack for creating popular games, as its Blackjack version is March’s most popular table game. 

Craps and American Roulette are two games interrupting blackjack’s dominance, ranking second and third respectively. One curious fact from the report is that the average wager in March on table games was from $6 up to $488, according to the EKG report.
