Gratorama Casino Review

High Tech

Once you’re actually through and beyond the initial landing screen things definitely improve visually, with some nice use of cartoonish graphics to deliver messages and set the ambience right up to Fun Mark 10.

Focusing on scratch card and slot games, the experience of the team responsible for piecing it all together speaks for itself really.

Founded in 2008, around a decade of experience has gone into choosing the right content and putting the necessary safeguards in place to ensure this is a top notch experience, and that’s immediately evident.

Good Odds

The developers make the rather eye-catching claim of every third game on Gratorama being a win. Whichever way you’re looking at things, 1/3 isn’t bad in terms of chances, and the result means you definitely feel compelled to give this one a shot if you do a little background research beforehand. Especially once you read that there is a £200,000 (or $200,000; or €200,000) jackpot available at all times.

That means that every third go you could be in for a win, and the most you could win is pretty darn high by all logical estimations of what you would normally be playing for- maximum- when signing up for an online casino. The chances of anything going wrong are pretty non-existent too, with top of the range 128-bit encryption providing all the proof you need that this is somewhere you and your personal information can feel protected from the threat of cyber crime.

Promotions

There are a host of great promotions available on an ongoing basis on Gratorama, and some are much better than we’ve seen elsewhere, albeit there are varying degrees of commitment required.

The aforementioned sign up bonus is basically 100% of your first deposit matched by the site, which is amazing. Alternative payment methods such as Skrill, paysafecard, and iDeal also receive a 15% bonus on all deposits made in this way, or 25% if you opt to use a Sofort card.

Elsewhere, you’re looking at the very generous proposition of receiving €/£/$ 7 automatically credited to your account, with no requirement for a deposit on your part. That’s basically seven bucks, Euros or pounds for you to play with, for real, with no obligation, which isn’t bad at all.

The Cashville promotion is a different kind of deal again, and also worthy noting if you’re in to win over the long haul. Designed to look and feel like a digital adventure park, only with instant cash games rather than rollercoasters-proper, this is a completely free bonus game for anyone signed up with an account in credit. That means lots and lots (and lots) of opportunities to strike it rich without actually having to do very much at all. Please note, though, this is only available between mid-October and mid-November.

Those Games Then

Although the idea of only having scratch card games and slots sounds a little limited in comparison with ‘full size’ online casinos that can offer roulette, poker, blackjack, and a host of other alternatives, what Gratorama lacks in variety of styles, it more than makes up for with sheer variety within the confines of its chosen styles.

Sweet Candy Slot isn’t just a clever name- it’s a fantastic 25 reel slot that is loads of fun and pays out big time. Other stand out titles include Tiki Beack, and Farm Scratch, which, rather than referencing an outbreak of ticks on a ranch in Texas, is a wonderfully moreish, and delightfully innocent, scratch card game that invokes memories of children’s books. Only this time you’re an adult and the money is real.

More adventurous types might want to go for the impressively animated Dragon Slot, whereas traditionalists are well served by the likes of Lucky 7 and other classically-focused efforts that are available on Gratorama.

In Conclusion

It’s safe, has loads of options and seems to really want to give you free money. None of which are negatives from where we’re looking.

Gratorama is a really professionally put together casino that doesn’t have much time to mess about with superlatives – it saves bells and whistles for the games to roll out when they’re ready, and all the better for it, because it means the games themselves are all of a very high standard. On top of this the great deals that are circulating on this website make it difficult to work out what you could possibly complain about, other than the drab homepage (which can in turn be forgiven once you’re in the website proper).

Some people prefer to have a download option just to make sure things will run smoothly, rather than having a web browser open as a kind of middle man between their machine and the web. This is understandable, but realistically Gratorama isn’t losing out on that much by not offering this- anyone with a decent enough connection to stream video without problems will be fine with things as they are, which sounds like a bit of a side point, but really that’s the most important bit of this entire review – the fundamental experience, which in this instance is pretty much second to none.

Pleasure from start to finish, with digital offerings like this it’s looking easier and easier to stay at home whilst the world collapses around your house. Or apartment.
