There are many\nreasons why people are so captivated by video games. They\u2019re engaging,\ninteresting, story-driven, and rewarding. Exploring beautiful maps and going on\nquests can be quite fulfilling even for those who don\u2019t play video games\nregularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there\u2019s\none particular aspect of every video game that makes us want to go back even\nafter we come to the end of the story. And that\u2019s minigames. In\nmodern video games<\/a>, minigames are an important part of the\nstoryline, but the players mostly turn to them when they want to take a break\nfrom the main storyline. Nowadays, most minigames that we encounter while\nplaying a popular title revolve around some type of gambling. And that\u2019s only\none part of their allure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article,\nwe\u2019ll explore some of the most popular minigames that have become a phenomenon\non their own and that any player should definitely check out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Saloon\nGames in Red Dead Redemption<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Exploring the world\non a horseback can be fun, and especially so if you have the option to hop over\nto the nearby saloon and play a casino-like game to relax. Red Dead Redemption<\/a> comes from the same studio\nthat made the GTA series, so it\u2019s no surprise that gambling has made its way\ninto this storyline as well. Games like poker and blackjack are available at\nany time you aren\u2019t riding into a new mission. Red Dead Redemption also\nfeatures the Liar\u2019s Dice, arm wrestling, and five finger fillet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A\nStunning Card Game from Witcher 3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s impossible to\nmention minigames without mentioning Gwent. This card game has become so\npopular among Witcher players that they have started buying or printing Gwent\ncards so they could play it in real life. So for those who haven\u2019t played or\nheard of Witcher 3 (if there is such a person), this is a game where the player\nleads the main character, Geralt of Rivia, through various missions and\nadventures, filled with dragons, witches, werewolves, etc. Every time the main\ncharacter, or the Witcher, passes through a town, he finds a tavern where he\ncan go to play a round of Gwent. There\u2019s actually an entire side-quest that you\ncan solve only if you win several rounds of this card game. Gwent became so\npopular that in 2018 it became a title on its own, getting rid of all the rest\nof Witcher\u2019s complex and long side-quests. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All\nThe Casino Games in Fallout: New Vegas<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Only after seeing\nthe title, we were absolutely sure that we will see some casino games in this\npost-apocalyptic RPG. Fallout: New Vegas is set in the abandoned and ruined Las\nVegas city, so of course the player will come across different casinos. There\nare six locations where players can stop by to play blackjack, roulette, and\nslots. However, there\u2019s one big difference between casinos in Fallout and the newest\nno deposit casinos<\/a> that you can find online in real life. The\ncasinos in Fallout won\u2019t let you win too much. If you do, you can get banned\nfrom that venue. You can see for yourself how there\u2019s a huge difference between\nthis minigame and the latest no deposit casino bonuses that allow you to take\nadvantage of promotions and play longer. So be careful when playing this game.\nIf you\u2019re lucky you can get a free drink or even a VIP hotel room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luigi\u2019s\nCasino<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Super Mario has\nbeen a well-known and liked character for several decades. The games about the cute plumber<\/a> were for many people\nthe first title they ever played on a home console.  In the latest Super Mario Bros., you can\nvisit Luigi\u2019s Casino and play roulette, poker, and a variation of Blackjack\ncalled Luigi-Jack. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
