Rome Casino Review

The capital of the Roman empire was known for the wealth and extravagance born of conquest, where aristocrats flaunted the luxuries of the time. In this review we'll see if Rome Casino lives up to its name. Is it a sumptuous feast of earthly delights or just an oddly-themed online casino that plays like any other?

Unique "Top Game" software

Forgoing the usual choices of Microgaming, Playtech, RTG, Cryptologic, Rival and the like, Rome Casino uses software programmed by a company called Top Game. This means the casino provides a smooth new experience, even for jaded casino reviewers who thought they had seen it all! Rome Casino offers over 60 games in all, and you can play good quality Blackjack, Keno, Roulette, table games, and a host of progressive jackpots, video poker, and slot games. The casino has various progressive games totalling over $160,000 in jackpots at the time of this review (December 2008). Top Game touts their software as the fastest to download on the internet today, and in our tests it anecdotally seemed quick to download, install and play. Overall the Top Game software provides an easy-to-use interface, and with good sound and video quality it offers a fun gaming experience.

One unique feature which we have not seen elsewhere is the ability to play multiple games at once, switching between them using a tabbed interface like most modern web browsers. An interesting technical ability it may be, but it seems more a solution looking for a problem. We were left wondering just why anyone would want to play like that - after all you're not often sitting waiting for something to happen when playing at an online casino. Regardless, the option is there if you want to use it.

Customer Support and Cashier options

Rome Casino's customer support team can be contacted 24/7 from inside the casino software via a convenient live chat function, a toll free phone number, or email. Rome Casino accepts deposits and withdrawals via a reasonable range of banking methods including credit cards, wire transfers and e-wallets such as Neteller, Click2Pay and Moneybookers. Withdrawals take three to five days to process, which is not the slowest we have seen but pales in comparison to the immediate withdrawals offered by others. Our tests show that they do indeed pay after both a few days wait, and usually a one time identity verification process. You should be aware though that there is also a £/€/$2,500 maximum withdrawal each week, so if you're lucky enough hit a jackpot you may have to be patient.

Promotions

Rome Casino offers a variety of promotions, primarily to new players. They normally offer are a total of $1300 in deposit bonuses on the first three deposits you make at the casino, but we have negotiated a huge increase - up to $2250 for Casino Listings customers. The casino allows all games to be played on the bonus, but only slots will make a dent in the wagering requirements, which are set at a comparatively low 12x your deposit plus bonus. At this point in time there is no comp point or reward structure for loyal players.

Overall, Rome Casino offers something new and different to the world of online casinos. As long as you are aware of the withdrawal limitations outlined above, the new, speedy Top Game software features games you will not have played elsewhere, making this a new casino worth checking out at least once.
