随着越来越多的公司试图开发成功的社交游戏，现在的竞争也日益增长。然而，这个任务不是直线前进的，它需要大量的工作。

　　例如，开发一个插槽游戏算法非常复杂，它需要有大量的数学技能。

　　很多赌博公司雇用了大量数学家来帮助开发一个有吸引力的游戏体验。

　　新的公司也必须努力吸引观众远离行之有效的网络游戏开发商。成功取决于游戏能够吸引玩家，并且让他们留下来。

　　在等式的另一边是陆地的赌场运营商正在转向网络世界。

　　在美国，社交赌博游戏通过真钱赌博网站将玩家吸引过来，这样做是不合法的。

　　来自Double Down的Greg Enell，格最近称，“社交游戏是一种机制，建立一个大的赌博的面向观众，所以当在线赌博在美国合法化的时候，我们有在线最大的观众。”

　　可以肯定的是，在未来的几年内，社会的赌博市场竞争将变得越来越激烈。

　　Competition is growing as more and more companies try to develop successful social casino games. However, the task is not straight forward and requires a huge amount of work.

　　For example, developing a slots game algorithm is extremely complicated and requires a huge amount of mathematical skills.

　　Many gambling companies employ huge amounts of mathematicians to help develop an attractive gaming experience.

　　New companies also have to try and attract an audience away from the well-established online game developers. Success depends on attracting players and then making them stay.

　　On the other side of the equation are land based casino operators who are now turning to the online world.

　　While online gambling is illegal in the US social casino games provide an excellent way to draw players to real-money gambling websites.

　　Greg Enell from Double Down recently said that “The thinking is that social gaming is a mechanism to build a large gambling-oriented audience now, so when elements of online gambling start to be legalized in U.S. we will have a big audience online.”

　　It certainly seems that the social gambling market is going to become more and more competitive over the coming years.
