SEGA CASINO REVIEW

 

Sega Casino Overview

 

Although SEGA is more accustomed to creating and publishing video games, the company has made its long awaited entrance into the online casino world. Having only been online for practically under a year, SEGA Casino is one of the newest offerings in the industry. SEGA is relying on their gaming licensing and renowned video game characters to bring players an interesting new twist on ordinary slots games. This means that fans of video games such as House of the Dead, Phantasy Star and Virtual Fighter, get to choose from several themed games as well as a selection of more traditional table and slots games.

While it is a very new casino service, SEGA does have their priorities in order when providing this service to players. The software client is offered in a full downloadable package and an Internet browser based version. The latter is practically instant while the former will have you playing in less than 20 minutes.

With a license from Alderney, SEGA operates under one of the strictest casino regulations around and are keen to uphold their well known name. They strive to provide a positive experience without any questionable or non-transparent customer interactions.

SEGA Casino has a selection of the most popular international deposit and withdrawal methods as well as a competitive sign up bonus. These advantages make it clear that SEGA is eager to grow a casino player base of their own.

The games are offered through a mixture of tried and tested licensed software as well as SEGA's own proprietary software, depending on which game you play. The casino service is smooth and trouble free but it is only offered in the English language. International players who are not able to navigate through English layouts will have a difficult time.

Sega Casino Software

 

SEGA Casino uses two software platforms in their casino client. The first is a standard casino software licensed by Playtech, one of the leaders in casino software technology. This software is the bulk of SEGA's service as it provides all of the ordinary slots games and table games.

The second platform used is a SEGA proprietary software that is used to run some of their arcade games and certain games that are SEGA-themed. There is also a web-based version of the Casino client available at the official SEGA casino web site. For Mac, Ubuntu and Linux users, this is the recommended method of choice. It will not require you to use any emulation program.
