Breakout Gaming Casino Review

Breakout Gaming is a sports betting site that specialises in both real and virtual sports. Gamers and gamblers alike are welcome here to indulge their love of sports in all their many forms. There’s a digital download game store, a bit like the Steam store, and a full gaming platform where players can wager real money. Esports also enjoy extensive coverage here; bet on your favourite games and tournaments, featuring all the best teams from the burgeoning esports market.

If you’ve ever fancied that you could do a better job at football management than your Premiership team’s coach, at Breakout Gaming you can put your money where your mouth is. Select a team and guide it through the virtual league, making inspired changes and switching things up as the season progresses and players drift in and out of form. Compete against thousands of other fantasy league managers in the quest to be crowned the best of the best and to pocket the cash prize that’s on offer.

About Breakout Gaming

Breakout Gaming is operated by Breakout Playa Limitada, a company who are registered in Costa Rica. The site is licensed as an entertainment site and also to provide gambling services including fantasy sports and esports. If you’re interested in contacting a member of the team to find out more or have a problem you wish to troubleshoot, you can get in touch with Breakout Gaming by email or by visiting their Slack channel.

Breakout Coin

If you’re planning to play at Breakout Gaming, you’ll want to know about Breakout Coin. This is the site’s universal payment system that’s designed to accept multiple currencies and swap these for coins that can be spent anywhere on the site. Breakout Coin is dubbed a multi-currency, which in operation takes its inspiration from Bitcoin. The coin, abbreviated to BRK, is used as a form of cryptocurrency within the site and the company responsible for developing the coin hold a reserve of 7,000,000 BRK. At times, the company may elect to loan players BRK, repayable with interest.

Breakout Coin is a proof-of-stake (or proof-of-work) currency which will be familiar to anyone who’s ever used Bitcoin or one of its many derivatives. Breakout Gaming are clearly proud of their creation, labelling it “one of the most technically innovative payment systems in existence”. Fascinating as all this is, how can players convert their fiat currency into Breakout Coin? It’s hard to tell because there isn’t any banking information available on the site – even the FAQ proves to be completely unsuited to resolving frequently asked questions, instead consisting of nothing more than a guide to installing the company’s Android app. Very strange.

Breakout Some Bonuses

Breakout Gaming makes more sense when it comes to promotions. There’s a 100% first deposit bonus to be claimed that’s worth up to $200. If you’re interested in the sportsbook as opposed to the gaming, Breakout Gaming again extends an identical first deposit offer. To get new players inducted into the ways of Breakout Gaming, there’s an offer of 10 free BRK plus another 100 BRK free. This appears to be additional bonus cash that’s dispensed when you make a deposit, but it’s unclear how this affects the welcome bonus stated above. It’s also unclear exactly how much 10 BRK is worth in real money terms.

Poker’s Primary

There’s a lot going on at Breakout Gaming, with poker just one of several primary categories. Unfortunately, the poker section of the site doesn’t appear to load properly. It’s unclear whether this is a browser issue or what’s going on, but there are some major UX issues blighting certain areas of the site.

In theory you should be able to view forthcoming poker tournaments and the respective prizes at stake, but in practice the pop-up information box that appears is too small to read, rendering the whole poker page unusable. It’s possible that things work better once logged in to the site, but from the perspective of casual visitors, it doesn’t augur well.

Feeling Sporty?

Despite billing itself as a sports and e-gaming site, Breakout Gaming is packing a proper casino. In fact, it turns out to be a casino that’s extremely well stocked with a load of great games. They kept that one quiet on their homepage, preferring instead to focus on sports, sports and more sports. Games are sorted into various categories and there’s even the option to filter results based on software developer. It’s good to see games from NetEnt, Endorphina and 1x2 Gaming here.

For purveyors of slots, the default featured games aren’t worth shouting about but things get better once you click on the NetEnt tab and are presented with titles such as Hook’s Heroes, Jimi Hendrix and Aloha Cluster Pays. Not to omit Endorphina either, whose Troll Faces slot, filled with internet memes, is a laugh riot from the first spin to the last. The same developer are also responsible for Trendy Skulls and Super Dragons Fire, both of which are stocked here. Despite having a classic slots category listed, there are no games to be found here. In fact, none of the category links in the left hand sidebar load – once again, Breakout Gaming has some serious navigation issues.

Live Casino Games

Breakout Gaming offers games broadcast by two live casino specialists, Evolution and Bet Construct. If you’ve been searching for a site where you can indulge your love of Russian Poker, your hunt is over. It’s here, staffed by a number of extremely Russian dealers, clad in traditional dress if the featured slider image is anything to go on. The Evolution live casino offers four games: Roulette, Blackjack, Baccarat and Casino Hold ‘Em. At the Bet Construct live casino there’s all that plus Roulette Fortune and the aforementioned Russian Poker.

Fantasy Sports

There’s supposedly fantasy sports to get involved with at Breakout Gaming including esports, but when you try to check them out, the esports link doesn’t work. Once again, Breakout Gaming’s site exudes an unfinished vibe, with entire sections that are either devoid of games or just don’t load. It’s a shame that more care hasn’t been applied to Breakout Gaming as it has the potential to be a great hub for savouring sports of all kind. Instead, it’s a haphazard place where the casino works fine but other segments fare much worse.

Breakout Conclusion

Breakout Gaming is an intriguing betting site. The concept behind the site is good, and the potential for playing with the site’s proprietary cryptocurrency should appeal to Bitcoin devotees. But without more information on how Breakout Coin works and what it’s worth it’s extremely hard to gauge the merits of the site-wide currency. The sportsbook and casino are the best elements of Breakout Gaming, but even then there are categories that refuse to load, especially if you’re using the left hand sidebar menu, which is effectively useless.

Still, the live casino’s good, the slots are very good and the prospect of playing fantasy sports including football will appeal to devotees of the beautiful game. If Breakout Gaming’s operators could return to finish the job they started, this could be a great site instead of a mediocre one.
