The Most Legendary Classic Slot Games

Rich Diamonds: Hold and Win Slots

Today PropaWin Casino turns the spotlight on the classic slot titles that shaped the industry, from the mechanical one-armed bandits to the three-reel video staples that still show up on casino floors and online lobbies. These games aren’t just nostalgia — they’re the templates that developers and players keep returning to, with familiar symbols, simple payouts, and instant play appeal. Whether you like the retro look or prefer modern takes on old-school action, classic slots remain a must-play category.

Why classic slots keep winning players’ attention

Classic slots are easy to understand, fast to play, and built around timeless design cues — bells, cherries, sevens, and diamonds. Their straightforward mechanics make them ideal for quick sessions, bankroll control, and learning the basics before moving on to more advanced video slots or progressive jackpots. Many modern titles also borrow classic symbols and payline structures, giving veteran players a comforting hit of familiarity.

The icons that defined the genre

Liberty Bell — Often credited as the earliest true slot machine, the Liberty Bell set the mechanical standard for later games. Its simple payout model and recognizable bell symbol became a blueprint for decades of machines.

Double Diamond and Triple Diamond — IGT’s Double Diamond family is the textbook three-reel experience: single payline, bold symbols, and high-variance hits on a small, elegant game board. These titles influenced countless single-line slots on land-based and online lobbies.

Cleopatra — IGT’s Cleopatra took Egyptian themes mainstream in casinos across the U.S. Its combination of approachable gameplay and a memorable bonus round made it a crossover hit that helped slot themes become a major factor in game design.

Mega Joker and Jackpot 6000 — NetEnt’s throwback releases recreated the fruit-machine feel with modern polish. Both titles capture the excitement of progressive-style Joker payouts and are praised for crisp visuals, classic layout, and player-friendly mechanics. NetEnt is one of the software partners at PropaWin, contributing to the casino’s classic and retro collections.

Wheel of Fortune — A casino floor staple, Wheel of Fortune style games combined the slot reel with a decadent bonus wheel feature, bringing TV-show glamour to the reels and setting a precedent for branded slot entertainment.

Modern twists on old-school fun

Developers continue to reinvent classics by adding bonus rounds, respins, and Hold-and-Win mechanics while keeping the aesthetic intact. Titles like Rich Diamonds: Hold and Win Slots deliver classic symbols and a retro vibe, but layer in bonus features and multiple paylines for bigger potential payouts — read our Rich Diamonds review to see how Playson updated the classic formula. PropaWin’s lobby includes software from Playson, Playtech, iSoftBet, and more, so players can find both authentic recreations and modern homages.
