Vegas Slot Casino Review

Vegas Slot Casino is a horrific looking online casino that breaks every command in the graphic design rulebook. Thankfully, the success of casinos isn’t based on looks alone, or Vegas Slot Casino would have long since been consigned to the dustbin of web history.

In the gambling game, websites don’t earn points for their subtlety of course; it’s all about attracting the user’s attention now, not a second later, before they so much as contemplate going elsewhere to get their kicks. For attention-seeking behaviour alone, Vegas Slot Casino certainly scores pass marks. The colours might clash, but they serve their purpose of commanding the attention they crave.

Like virtually all badly designed online casinos, VSC is a downloadable software model. It’s almost an unwritten rule that if you serve your customers downloadable games, you have to also serve them an execrable website as part of the package.

Vegas Slot Casino is so dated, it’s even got a pop-up advertising a prize draw for a $25,000 giveaway, a marketing mechanism that was last en vogue around 1996.

Close the pop-up – so that you can make out the menu – and you’ll see a line of unspaced text that’s hard to decipher, each link separated by just a dot and the row ending with an exclamation mark, because badly designed websites just love to add emphasis.

A Closer Look at Vegas Slot Casino

The site is available in English, Spanish and German and the default currency can be set to a few popular options. At the top of the page, the collective value of the casino’s jackpot games can be made out, a figure that currently surpasses $7,000,000.

Cast your eyes a little further down the page and you’ll encounter a macabre looking image promoting the casino’s $700 welcome bonus and a flashing arrow overlaid against an orange button urging you to download their software now. This software only works on PC of course, so won’t be much use to Mac owners – or tablet or smartphone owners for that matter.

About Vegas Slot Casino

It’s obligatory for casinos with “Vegas” in their name to include a sentence or two about channelling the spirit and excitement of Las Vegas with their virtual counterpart, and so it proves to be with Vegas Slot Casino.

The site boasts of having more than 500 of “the most realistic and exhilarating” games to offer, from roulette to blackjack and from video poker to slots. This is complemented by 16 progressive jackpot games with prizes worth millions. The other incentive to get in on the action is the low starting bets that each game requires; with as little as $1, it’s possible to walk away from the site with your pockets bulging.

Getting Started

Downloading Vegas Slot Casino’s software is a straightforward process that should present no problems. If you do need help however – either in getting the software to work or in other aspects of using the site – customer support is just an email or live chat away.

In addition, the casino offers telephone support, with freephone numbers for customers from Canada, UK, Denmark and Germany. There’s also an international number, but charges apply.

When it comes to depositing funds into your account, Vegas Slot Casino accepts credit card via Visa and MasterCard. It also accepts debit cards including Maestro and Entropay. Other options include PayPal, Neteller, Skrill, Qiwi, Paysafecard and bank transfer. As for withdrawals, there is a 2-day wait before funds are released.

A $700 Bonus

As a thank you for your custom, and as an incentive to sign up, Vegas Slot Casino will offer you a welcome bonus worth up to $700. This is split over the first 5 deposits you make at the casino, starting with a 100% first deposit match worth up to $100.

For your second deposit, it’s a 50% bonus worth up to $150, then a 30% bonus worth up to $150 with your third, a 20% bonus worth up to $100 with your fourth and a 10% bonus worth up to $200. There’s no mention of any ongoing promotions at Vegas Slot Casino however, so use that deposit cash wisely as it’s all you’re getting.

More than 500 Games

With Vegas Slot Casino’s software downloaded and installed, and its hideous logo added to your PC desktop, you’re just a click away from accessing all 500+ of its games.

To gain the inside scoop on what these games are precisely you’ll have to have gone through the aforementioned steps, but Vegas Slot Casino’s website does provide information on some of these titles at least. Slots constitute a good number of these games, including Break Da Bank Again, the sequel to the original Break Da Bank.

This appears to be a game that Vegas Slot Casino are proud of, though by the standards of modern 3D slots it looks more than a little underwhelming. The 9-line, 5-reel slot obliges players to crack the safe and help themselves to bars of gold. According to Vegas Slot Casino, Break Da Bank Again features “amazing graphics and stunning visual effects”. According to anyone with 20:20 vision, it doesn’t.

Spin the Roulette Wheel

No casino – virtual or real – would be complete without a roulette game or two. Vegas Slot Casino’s flagship game is European Roulette Gold. The casino breathlessly talks of its “stunning” animation and “impeccable” graphics and sound effects.

While this may be hyperbole, the game certainly looks acceptable and provides a faithful enough simulation of a roulette wheel in action.

The Big Jackpots

The progressive slots at Vegas Slot Casino look ugly as sin, but then so do the progressive slots at almost every casino on the web. It’s almost like an endurance test: if you want that big jackpot really badly, you’re gonna have to work for it by expending hours spinning the reels of some of the dullest slots ever designed.

One such title you’ll find at Vegas Slot Casino is Major Millions. It’s got just 3 reels and 3 paylines to it, and yet it has the power to pay out frighteningly large sums of money.

It’s certainly not the only unattractive but lucrative progressive game to be found at Vegas Slot Casino: take your pick from the likes of King Cashalot, Mega Moolah, Cash Splash and Treasure Nile. There are also a few poker-based progressive games to try such as Poker Ride, Jackpot Deuces and Caribbean Draw Poker. As for the remainder of the games to be found at Vegas Slot Casino – blackjack, baccarat and the like – you’ll need to download the software to find out more.

Final Thoughts on Vegas Slot Casino

Vegas Slot Casino is a badly dated casino whose best years are behind it – assuming it ever had any good years. There’s nothing about this site that will make you want to sign up and commit cash to it.

It’s not a crime to cater only to desktop PC users any more than it’s a crime to create a website that’s eye-wateringly bad to look at. It’s inadvisable at the very least, however, and unlikely to generate new business.
