The First Click Counts
Before breaking into the individual games, it is worth a quick glance at Ace Kingdom’s rules and guarantees. This should be the first click anyone makes on a casino site they have never visited before.
What is reassuring is that the help and support button is in a prime place at the top of the page. There is a phone number to speak to people directly and an email address. It tells you from the start that this is a site registered to Ladbrokes Betting and Gaming – and this should be a source of reassurance.
There are also opt out buttons on the major table games. So, if you change your mind you can easily tap the clear table button or the clear bets button. If you find your internet connection drops out, then Ace Kingdom will return you to the place in the game where you left. They have a disconnection handling mechanism built in to protect your stake.
What is really interesting is the emphasis on fairness. Ace Kingdom claims to be committed to fair play at all times – and they have an audited Random Number Generator to prove it!
A Rich Mixture of Old and New
So, now you know that the site has fairness at its heart, let’s take a look at the games offered. Well, the site was only launched in 2015 but it boasts a vast number of games and comes from of the biggest names in the betting industry. The casino has access to Playtech’s catalogue of over 500 titles. This means that there should be at least the bonus of 50 new titles each year.
What is particularly awesome is that the site plays as well on your phone as it does on your laptop. Great functionality and great looking games.
Here are some of the great titles on offer:
Jackpot Kingdom – This is a brand new game to the site. The game starts with a friendly giant reaching down for a coin and then frantic dashing and jumping around a land. Load times are quite long but the frantic exotic music taps away the time quite nicely.
The game is a classic spin, with the jackpot designed to be the word “wild” across five out of 5 reels on line one. This will multiply your original stake by 50,000. This really is a giant of a jackpot. There are options to three, four or five matches, with increasing winnings. Added to this, a bonus token appearing on reel one or five, ups the winnings.
This is a classic game with a great twist. The use of the giant graphics and the volcanoes allow for a complex combination of winning formulae. The one downside – to qualify for the jackpot you have to play with the maximum bet.
Gladiator – Gladiator continues the trend of great looking games on this site, with inventive sound track, intelligently designed to raise the heartrate a beat or two! This is from the Dreamworks stable and includes graphics from the film, including photographs of the stars. It is a classic reel game that draws on the theme of the Gladiator – with the helmet and coliseum offering bonuses. Each line offers different prizes, from multipliers to free games. The jackpot is won through the accumulation of gold helmets – encouraging play after play – especially if you are only a helmet away!
There is also a black and red card game. Working on 50/50 probability, you are asked to guess what colour the next card will be. This is a fast paced gambling option – but make sure you don’t burn through your cash too quickly!
Blackjack – A classic game of all casinos, Blackjack offers that sense of excitement of a casino table. Classy design, with a view on the table and your chips, there is something to be said for the simple offer of some old-fashioned gambling. Once into blackjack there is the offer of video poker and some slots along the top. You could almost imagine you had stumbled into Las Vegas without leaving your home.
White King – This is one of the premium games advertised as new and clearly positioned as something different, with banner advertising. The graphics are more sophisticated and the music classic. There is none of the urgency of some of the other reel games. However, in reality this is just another reel game, with stacked wilds leading to a jackpot, based on a maximum bet spin. A lot of these games are variations of the spin reel theme, including the Marvel inspired games and Frankie Dettori’s horse racing inspired spins.
Premium Roulette European – No online casino is complete without a roulette wheel. And, like the blackjack table, the classy graphics of the roulette table and the chips does help you to get lost in the casino world. There is an easy to use interface, with the dragging of chips onto the table and with complete control over the spins. You can also clear the table of bets if you wish – so at no point are you rushed into decisions. A smooth online experience!
What is the Upshot?
This is a top quality site from one of the leaders in the betting world: Ladbrokes. There is a great variety of classic casino games and multiple themed slots, which will give you the chance to play in a variety of environments.
Load times are reasonably quick and the means to win clearly communicated.
All-in-all it seems that Ace Kingdom does seem to play fair and therefore the chance for a fun experience in the casino is definitely in play.
What is obvious is that this new player on the casino block is going to become a major threat to other well-known sites.
