Universal Entertainment announced that the Slot Street smartphone app would end its service on 6 November. The game is a pachislot-style title incorporating visual elements from overseas video slots, and sought to expand its fan base through productions drawing on the worlds of past machines, as well as features such as adventure and casino modes.
The primary reason given for ending the service was that, during the long-term system maintenance process, the company determined that improving the PHP vulnerability while retaining the current structure would be difficult in a manner that met safety standards. No alternative for further development or continued operation was provided.
Following the service closure, refund procedures will be conducted for purchased but unused “paid gems.” The refund process may require user information from within the app and various forms of verification. Users are asked not to uninstall the app until the procedures are complete and must apply by the deadline in accordance with the official notice.
Following the closure announcement, the article says that fans have expressed their regret. Universal Entertainment is expected to continue providing information on future arrangements through notices on its official website.
