The modern casino gaming may have been largely popularized by the Westerners (on films, magazines, etc.) but long before they became a significant part of the world’s gambling scene, Asia has always been at the forefront of the gambling civilization for millennia. The advent of the Internet and all that constitute electronic gaming have further increased the presence of Asia (or its elements) in online platforms. Games like Thai Paradise, Sic Bo, Fan Tan, Sultan’s Gold, and Silent Samurai all have characteristics that are uniquely Asian.
It makes perfect sense that many games are based on the local cultures of Asian countries for the mere fact that the region—particularly China, Indonesia, Thailand, and Malaysia—is a top consumer of online casino products or services. Their global market share is increasing, and so is the range of Asian-flavored games.
In slots, Malaysia should be proud of Mamak Corner, a reel game inspired by and features the popular street food scene of the South-east Asian country. Mah-jong Hi Lo and Keno, apparently, take on the Chinese essence to spice up the set list for arcade games. Mythical creatures or animals—such as the dragon, tiger, and snake—that hugely reflect the region’s fondness for faunal aesthetics are also well represented in many online games (as symbols, theme, or the graphical layout in general). Even scratch games, such as Gong Xi Fa Chai, are characteristically of the Far East.
Although local in nature, “Asian games” are global in appeal. They may have their roots from the Chinese, Japanese, Malaysian, or even Arabic, but they can be very well understood and enjoyed by almost every nationality in world.
