A sleek, purely frontend implementation of a classic 3-reel slot machine game built with HTML, CSS, and vanilla JavaScript. Experience the thrill of the spin directly in your browser!
Online website game: Classic Slot Machine
- Classic 3-Reel Layout: Authentic slot machine visuals with three spinning reels.
- Interactive Lever: Pull the handle using a mouse drag or touch gesture to initiate the spin, simulating a real slot machine mechanic.
- Vibrant UI/UX:
- Animated Symbols: Reels spin and settle with engaging acceleration and deceleration effects.
- Winning Animations: Flashing lights, a glowing win line, and a "💰" animation celebrate winning combinations (three identical symbols).
- Responsive Design: Optimized for both desktop and mobile screens using CSS media queries.
- Pure Frontend: No external libraries or frameworks—just clean, native web technologies.
This project is a single-file application (index.html structure), making it incredibly easy to set up.
Or just open a online game: Slot
You only need a modern web browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, etc.).

- Pull Down:
- Desktop: Click and drag the handle downwards.
- Mobile: Touch and drag the handle downwards.
- Release: Release the drag/touch to trigger the spin.
- Wait for the Results: The reels will spin sequentially and stop.

| Technology | Purpose |
|---|---|
| HTML5 | Structure and semantic markup for the game elements. |
| CSS3 | Extensively used for styling, responsiveness, gradients, shadows, and keyframe animations (@keyframes titleGlow, winPop). |
| JavaScript (ES6) | Core game logic, handle dragging mechanics, reel spinning logic, and win detection. |
The game is primarily driven by the following JavaScript functions:
initializeSlotMachine(): Populates the reels with a long list of random symbols at startup.startDrag(),drag(),endDrag(): Manages the drag-and-drop mechanics for the lever handle, allowing the user to "pull" it.pullHandle(): The main function that resets the handle and initiates the reel spins with slightly staggered final results.spinReel(reelId, finalSymbol, duration):- This function handles the visual spinning effect using
setIntervalto rapidly change the reel position (reel.style.top). - It implements a deceleration mechanism (
speed *= 0.92) to create a realistic slow-down before the reel locks into the predeterminedfinalSymbolposition using a smooth CSS transition.
- This function handles the visual spinning effect using
checkSlotMachineWin(symbols): Compares the three final symbols to determine if they match, triggering the visual win effects if successful.
