Live roulette from
Microgaming (pre 2010)
The below review is relevant to Microgaming's old live roulette platform.
Following a platform update at the end of 2009, their games have changed.
Microgaming bring almost 15 years of online casino software
development experience to their live dealer/croupier platform and it shows.
The interface isn't exactly feature packed like some of the other platforms but
what is does it does very well, providing a very playable game.
There is no chat function, or video stream customization
option. But the vision is excellent (at moderate connection speeds) and
all bet instructions/commands and required help/information are well presented
and easy to execute.
The game is not available for play in free play mode so you
will need to register a real player account and fund it before you can access
the game. Once loaded you can view the game freely without placing a real
money bet.
Microgaming's live roulette is accessed via games menu of the
either the 'instant (Adobe Flash)' casino or software download at offering
casinos. That is to say, you won't find 'live roulette' links at any of
the offering casinos that load the individual game. In fact, for some
reason most Microgaming licensee casinos, including the above, don't offer much
guidance as to where to find their live games.
Standard European roulette bets and payouts apply - see the
house rules links above for details.

Microgaming live roulette - place
your bets
Its a no-fuss interface, not exactly full of all of the customization
options of some of the other platforms (video resize, dealer/player chat
etc) but what this game does it does well.
Vision is clear and smooth at reasonable connection speeds and bet
instructions and all required information is easy to find/use and very
well presented. |
