The gaming industry has always been viewed as more male-dominant, and it's no surprise as to why. Back in the day gambling was considered a man's activity and perhaps back in the day it was. This might explain why online casinos originally set their eyes on men to make up their target market. But in the past years a number of reports have shown that women make up nearly half of the online gambling community in New Zealand. Yet for some reason, the majority of online casinos and pokies, as slot machines are called in Down Under, seem to cater almost exclusively to men! Live casinos are almost exclusively run by sexualized female dealers, the pokies feature main characters who more often than not are butch, strong men. Even the non-human characters are given male names.

That being said, there are a number of online casinos and software providers that have picked up on the importance of catering to their female clientele. While new pokies are released every month we are slowly starting to see more and more female-oriented ones pop up. Not only are they fancy and colourful but they also offer a ton of advanced features that enable the player to quickly learn how to win on pokie machines nz. Here are a few of these fantastic slot games to try out:

Bridesmaid Pokie

All of us ladies can agree that Bridesmaids was a great movie. It has drama, comedy, a hearty feel - we laughed, we cried, we enjoyed. It was so common in the online casino world for slots to be made after popular male-oriented films, but this was one of the first pokies produced based on popularity by a female audience. This pokie features friendship spins, a boutique bonus, and even a magic moments bonus - all thematic from the film and very relatable. The symbols are a blend of classic card symbols (spade, heart, etc.) and photos of the characters in their finest wedding garb. This pokie is sure to take you on a trip down memory lane to all the drama of when you were a bridesmaid yourself.
