Amongst the top 5 software providers in the industry, there is CryptoLogic. Known for their modern and innovative style, CryptoLogic has been in the industry since 1995. The company was born in Canada, in the basement of brothers Rivkin's parents' house. They wanted to find an application for a secure online financial transaction system they had developed.
Then, CryptoLogic was born and has remained a leader company in its ambit due to their specialization in encrypting technologies. A reliable company as it is, CryptoLogic offers its clients over 200 casino games options backed up with 24/7 support and assistance.
CryptoLogic is also one of the few companies that care not only in improving their software but also about improving the players' experience at the games. As of today, CryptoLogic powers some of the most prestigious brands in online gaming.
Cryptologic - HIGHLIGHTS
Software, Interface and Graphics. The software is one of the most modern and dynamic interfaces available in the industry. It is available for download to PC and to play online. All buttons are clear and easy to find so it is very user-friendly.
The sounds are very realistic and the 3D graphics are attractive and clear. Perhaps the graphics lack realism but this is complemented by their great design and colours as well as by the sounds; at times the player may hear voices that will give the sense of being in a land-based casino.
The software has been rated number one by the industry and the players. It has won many prizes like The Casino Player Best Gaming in 2005 and the Best Casino Software in 2006.
Range of Games. This software powers about 200 games on the download version and 60 directly online. You can find all the classic games as well as newer versions. There is also a wide variety of exciting slots. The progressive jackpots are huge and also very popular withing players.
Special Features.
- Marvel Comics Slots. Perhaps something really attractive about CryptoLogic's software is their licensing deal with Marvel Comics. This allowed them to offer appealing and different titles for their slots such as Spiderman, The Incredible Hulk, Punisher and many others.
- Multi-Player Function. With this software you will be able to interact with other plahyers and participate in the live chat.
Responsibility and Fair Gaming. CryptoLogic's license is one of the strictest in the industry. Their software platform has been tested for inherent source code fairness to ensure that all online casinos using it provide a fair gaming environment.
The software is not only committed to offer top-quality but also remarks the importance of gaming being safe and want to set a high level of standard for trust and accountability. They are highly reputed for their contribution to eCash security and they intend to keep that reputation.
Cryptologic - DOWNSIDE
Games' Speed. For learners and relaxed players this may not seem like a big issue, it might be even comfortable. However if you like fast action this software might seem a bit slow.
Compatibility. A downside for CryptoLogic is that their software is only compatible with Windows and does not work with the Apple Mac market.
Dropped Connections. A very difficult problem that has arised in the past about CryptoLogic is that some online casino players have had combined dropped connections. This was a very hard thing to overcome by CryptoLogic operators and they have worked really hard on the problem, but still it has not been 100% resolved though this is mostly present now in the no-download version.
No Slots nor BlackJack Tournaments. In many casinos these tournaments are very popular and the ones using CryptoLogic do not offer them.
Cryptologic - PERSONAL OPINION
Even though I think that disconnection problems sound lethal to any player, I honestly think that CryptoLogic's software and video slots are one of the best and probably the most innovative in the industry. They have been in the market since 1996 and still their software looks like it is newly designed and has just been invented. Another thing I like about CryptoLogic is the philosophy of providing fair gaming conditions; though it may seem like a pain for casinos to go through all the licensing requirements, this benefits the players mostly and shows that the company has their best interest.
