People’s favourite casino games taken online

More people than ever are getting into gaming — especially casino games. That’s partly because of the rapid rise in smartphone ownership — with so many people owning phones that allow them to play their games while on the go, or from the comforts of home. The amount of new casino players means that the industry is expanding to suit. More and more casino games are being released almost weekly by developers who are looking to utilise the best tech there is on offer, all in a bid to get an edge over the competition.

There are now a huge variety of casino games that have gone online for people to play — whether they’re experienced players or first-timers to the game. Here are some of the top online casino games.

Slots

When you think of casinos, one of the first things that might come to mind are the rows of colourful, flashing slots. They’re one of the most popular games when it comes to casinos because they’re just so exciting. Everyone knows the sound of a win! Slots are also popular with patrons to casinos as they’re so easy to play.

They don’t require any strategy so almost anyone can get some enjoyment out of them — and even have a chance to win something! Online slots are just as fun as the ones you’ll find in your local casino. With so many different themes and fun features available, especially when it comes to video slots, you’re not likely to get bored of them any time soon. If you’ve not played them before, now is definitely the time to try!

If you’re looking for slots inspired by films there’s Gladiator, Superman the Movie, Man of Steel and The Dark Night amongst others. And who can forget the Rocky-themed slots and the one based off Pink Panther?

Some of the television-themed slots reference shows like Game of Thrones, Family Guy, Vikings, Who Wants to be a Millionaire, Narcos, Battlestar Galactica and Survivor.

Roulette

Roulette is one of the oldest casino games out here and it’s still widely popular in both casinos and online. The rules haven’t changed much over the years, although there are several variations with the house edge varying too. If you’re playing online, you can find loads of different options. Live roulette is also available meaning you play with a real life dealer — replicating the experience of the game you’d get.

Blackjack

One of the most well-known casino games is blackjack. This card game requires quite a lot of strategy (unlike roulette and slots, for example) — while playing you need to make a decision every time you play a hand. It’s one of those games that you can learn and get better at, which is a different kind of excitement than you get when you’re playing slots — a bit of strategy is always fun.

Playing blackjack online follows the same strategy as if you were playing in person, so if you’re looking to get good to impress your friends it might be worth trying it out online. The next time you see them in a casino, they’ll be really impressed by what you’ve achieved! 

Video Poker

A casino game where the house edge is super low is video poker. But it’s also a game that you need to be very strategic at, especially if you’re playing with the pros. There are many variations of poker, the most popular being Texas Hold’Em. Spend some time doing your research (there’s loads of books out there and info online!) if you’re a newbie and build up your skills over time.

If you want to get inspired to play, there are lots of amazing films that feature poker in them. Molly’s Game is a particularly great classic that will get you wanting to improve your game; it showcases all the glitz and glam as well as being an incredible story. 

Baccarat

One of the games that attracts the most high rollers in baccarat, a game that originates in France that involves a player hand and a dealer hand. Also extremely popular in Asia and Macau, it’s a great one to play with live video dealers online. These tables offer some of the highest limits out there so if you’re looking to play like James Bond, it’s definitely one to give a try. 

Some of the films and television shows that feature baccarat (to get you in the mood) are Dr. No, GoldenEye, Rush Hour 3, A Hard Day’s Night and Fleming. 

So much for you to try!

Whether it’s roulettes, poker, slots or baccarat, there’s lots to choose from when it comes to playing casino games online. You can try those you’re familiar with or give new ones a go! With so much on offer, you’ll definitely have a broad range of experiences. New games are being released all the time so keep an eye out for potential new favourites.

And when it doubt, many websites let you give the game a try first! That’s because most of the time, players enjoy them so much they want to keep on playing.
