Playtech Online Casinos

Playtech - Highlights

Software, Graphics and Interface. Playtech's software is very user-friendly, the buttons provide easy access to everything and they are clear. This platform powers about 180 different games where you can find the basic ones as well as more creative versions of them.

The graphics on Playtech software may not be the unique, but they are of good quality: smooth and fast. The graphics keep being developed; they are improved all the time. The sounds are adequate and complement the sense of a virtual casino.

Special Features.

• Live Dealers. To add a more 'human' side to virtual gaming, Playtech developed the games with 'live dealers'. This option is available at Playtech casinos for their Blackjack games, Baccarat, Sic Bo and Roulette. Basically the live dealer is a real person that can be watched via an online webcam and players can interact with the dealer through the chat and even tip them!. The dealer will deal the cards in Blackjack and Baccarat, will spin the wheel in roulette and throw the dice in Sic Bo in real time.
• Adjustable Software. You can adjust the speed of the game, the volume of the sounds, the music and the dealer's voice.

Research and Development. 80% of Playtech's staff is focused on research and development of the software. This has lead them to many accomplishments such as making online gaming more 'human', and incorporating a multicultural essence to their games that pleases players from around the world. Such big focus on their clients can only reflect positively, Playtech is a company looking out to the future and this makes their software worthy of keeping as it is constantly evolving. 

Credibility. Playtech's software has been certified by BMM International. They are a highly reputed watchdog throughout the US, Europe and Asia.

Playtech - Downside

Game Releases. The game releases at Playtech are not constant and also not very frequent. The game selection is quite limited compared to other software.

Cannot be Played Online. Playtech software is only available for download, hence it cannot be played directly on the web. I once encountered this a big inconvenient when I was at an internet cafe at the airport (for several hours) with no download privileges, but of course this is not an everyday situation.

Casinos Reputation. About 90% of Playtech's casinos are reputable; however there are a few in which it is unsafe to deposit. Unfortunately, I must say you should be careful as Playtech software does not always mean a reputable casino.

Playtech - Personal Opinion

Personally, I find Playtech a good software, though it is not excellent. The software has some limitations and the unsafe casinos were a big issue amongst many players. However, it seems that Playtech is a company completely focused on improving, and considering other technical and non-technical advantages, many casinos have changed their software provider to Playtech in recent years. Playtech is a company that has become reputable in a short period of time and I have no doubt that the future seems nothing but bright for them. The past couple of years have been testimony of the company's decision to follow the right path.
