Premier Roulette Diamond Edition
This version of roulette is a step up from Microgaming's entry-level roulette, which has been entertaining casino gaming fans for many years.
The first thing to note about this game is the wheel itself which is so accurately rendered it looks real – especially if you squint a bit! The betting table is also beautiful to look at.
This is the European version of roulette, so no pesky '00' on the wheel. This keeps the house edge down to a devour-able 2.7%
Chip values start at 0.25 and go all the way up to 1,000. To place your bets select your chip size and click on the table. The table lights up with your selected numbers so you can be sure of placing the wager you intend to. You can take your chips off the table by clicking 'undo' or 'clear'. You can also double the size of your last chip placed by clicking 'double'.
Clicking on 'expert' expands the betting table. You can now place call bets, neighbours and on the racetrack. If you've played European roulette before you will know what all these possible bets mean. If you haven't, then this is a great way to get accustomed to them. You can de-clutter the table if you're not interested in these bets by clicking the 'regular' button.
Once you are happy with your bet placement, you can hit the 'spin' button. The little ball is spun around the wheel and once it reaches the inner wheel it begins to bounce around in a very convincing way – again, the game physics are spot on. Once the ball lands in a pocket a placeholder bounces onto the table to mark the lucky number. If your number is covered then chips bounce from the stack and appear on the bottom right-hand side of the screen.
Game history covers the last eight spins, and you view detailed information about the playing session via the 'view statistics' button. You can also choose from six tables, all with different colours and designs.
Conclusion
It's hard to imagine that's there's a better, more authentic online casino RNG roulette experience than this. The graphics are superb, and you will experience a little hint of excitement as that ball bounces close to your number. A wonderful rendition of European roulette from Microgaming.
