The slots can now be played at BetMGM Casino in New Jersey, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Ontario.

Players are taken back to the Land of Oz, featuring characters like Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Cowardly Lion, and the Tin Man.

The Wizard of Oz – Over the Rainbow is a 5×4 online slot game, where players spin the reels in the base game to land winning combinations with State Fair symbols for a chance at the Balloon Jackpot that awards 100x bet win, or land five Over the Rainbow jackpot symbols to win the top jackpot worth 1,000x. Bonus rounds are a big part of the gaming experience as well.

H2 Gambling Estimates: BetMGM Sits at 7% Market Share

This is the first of several The Wizard of Oz slot titles to be released through this year and 2026, the company added.

According to Ontario market share estimates sent us from H2 Gambling Capital, BetMGM sits at 7%. H2 utilizes sources like web traffic, affiliate traffic and search volume data to estimate market size and growth rates in regulated markets where there is no official data.

The Ontario market currently has 50 licensed operators and 84 gaming websites. Casino dominates the market – CAD $6.5 billion in cash wagers in January, or 83% market share, according to iGaming Ontario data.

So content is king, in a market as competitive as Ontario.
