Mad About Slots Casino Review

Mad About Slots is a relatively straightforward online casino set up, which manages the job of being reassuringly professional. Rather than theming itself, it acts as the branded shop window for a variety of individual games, which adds to the feeling this is more of an immersive, expansive experience than some other websites of the same kind.

The landing page is clean and well designed, with striking images encouraging people to sign up and redeem a generous £200 welcome bonus. Navigation off the landing page is easy and the subtly reactive menu buttons nice to use. It’s also good to see a prominent search bar, enabling you to find out about and locate any aspect of the casino, saving plenty of time in the process up against a lot of others we have had experience of. Other than that, there’s not a huge amount to say about the introductory experience and first impressions, but nor should there be. We’re here to play (and win) after all.

Crazy Games

The games available on Mad About Slots are divided into different categories, as you would expect. So that means we have Casino Games, Slots and Scratch Cards. It’s not a huge array but it’s a good array nonetheless, with the Scratch Cards a particularly unique – or at least not so common – form of online gambling.

Keno, for example, is a number based game that will appear to fans of Countdown and similar brain teasers. Meanwhile, mega Money Rush is more like an arcade game, involving you racing to collect coins and avoid obstacles – one of our favorites. These are great for a quick game, and it’s worth noting that the mobile versions don’t take any time to load up even if you’re using 3G.

We spent most of our time in the slots, though – it would have been rude not to given the name of this casino – and can report back positive things. You can easily locate the latest, with the choices automatically set to bring up the newest releases, and then there are options for Progressive Slots, More Slots, and a simple All Games search enquiry.

Casino games, meanwhile, range from Baccarat to European Roulette, and are definitely of an upmarket variety in terms of their design and the way they play- befitting any James Bond moment on screen. Well, maybe not quite, but still they are really well put together and definitely worthy of the time it takes to sign up for an account.

Don’t Forget Your Promotions

The promotions page presents all the information you could need in terms of any promotions the website runs. It’s a little overwhelming, scrolling through all this the moment things load up, before you have even had chance to see the games, but it’s also quite tempting once you read up on what’s on offer.

Certainly no bad thing, then, just a lot to take in when you’re first arriving, but when you have a second just stop to consider what there is on offer. The Weekly Surprise is a surprise bonus added to your account, the arrival date and amount are always kept a mystery. Game of the Day gives free spins for highlighted games, and Cashback Day is where you make a deposit on a Thursday and get 10% extra on a Friday. Cashback indeed, the list could go on, but that gives an idea of what we’re talking about.

The Complete VIP Experience

How many websites do you have VIP access to? Not many we’d wager, but with Mad About Slots’ loyalty scheme it’s hard not to be tempted to add at least one to the list. VIP Points are accrued the more you play, and these increase your VIP Level. The higher you go the more promotions, rewards and points come your way, and whilst there’s no direct gifts being offered like some sites, this seems to be a system that works really well in terms of actually paying back. Cashback, you might say.

Better Than the Best

You know it plays well, but do you know it’s got your back? Well, OK, this is pretty obvious considering you can scroll down on any page of Mad About Slots and find information detailing its security. Licensed by the UK Gambling Commission, security is provided by Comodo, which is a market leading company in terms of web and digital security.

In fact, we’ve not seen this much transparency in many other online casinos. It’s possible to find out exactly what happens on your credit card statement whenever you make a transaction with the site in just one click, and the options for payment are much better than standard.

Options include Credit and Debit Cards (some casinos only accept Credit), but also Pay By Phone, NETeller (a fast and secure online transaction service), Skrill (MoneyBookers), iDEAL- a Dutch payment service, PaySafeCard – Europe’s prepaid card for online purchasing. Oh, and Trustly, which allows payments to be made through your own online banking environment. 

Sadly, there does appear to be a lack of support that’s easy to find from the off, which may put some users off. Don’t worry, though, as the Contact Us page clearly states, there two ways you can receive 27/7 support- email, and online chat.

Mad About This One

It’s a professional experience you can trust in, littered with gaming highlights, which does more than it says on the tin. What more do you want to know? How about the excellent promotions, and great deals on offer?

Whichever way you look at it, Mad About Slots is a great experience and comes up good on all fronts. We loved the Scratch Cards, and haven’t seen them on a lot of casino games. It really does make the most of the whole computer game side of the casino, which is an interesting point in itself. Whereas many look to pull down that wall, by bringing less traditional gambling platforms, ones that represent more traditional video games, this particular URL does the opposite.

Of course there’s plenty of realism on offer too, which is obviously the big selling point for many. The Casino Games are infinitely playable, and very well made, so although it’s not an endless selection the experience is enough to make you stick to one for a good while. By far one of the most complete overall online casino experiences, it’s hard to know where to really fault Mad About Slots.

That said, if you’d prefer the whole thing to be themed on the Wild West or underwater or the Far East, this one probably isn’t for you, but it probably shouldn’t take until the last line for you to figure that out if you’ve been listening the whole way through. Hardly a criticism, if a criticism at all, it’s our little way of trying to explain just how much this casino feels like the real deal (or should that be reel deal?!), a place where professionals play for high stakes and – providing you have the necessary ingredients at home, of course – equally high end drinks are consumed while trying to choose between Red and Black.
