Red Dog Casino

Mobile and Casino Games

The RealTime Gaming compendium of games needs no introduction, the software provider has been plodding along at a steady pace for almost two decades. Its software package can be accessed through its mobile app or it can be downloaded onto your PC. The desktop version of its games is more extensive than the Mobile Casino. Once you downloaded the casino’s mobile app you can play the games in your phone’s browser.

The suite of games are not as broad as NetEnt’s or Microgaming’s yet players are spoiled with a delectable choice of slots, blackjack, roulette, multi-million dollar progressive jackpot slots, live casino, video poker and specialty games.

Slots

The slot machine category is divided into progressives, 3D, video slots and classics. The visual imagery of the RTG slots improved by a substantial margin as such we’re happy to recommend titles such as Stardust, Cash Bandits 2, Chai Hong, Wu Zetian, Fish Catch, Fu Chi, Ritchie Valens, Snowmania and Pig Winner.

Each slots is clothed with plenty of bonus rounds (Free Falls, Pick Me’s, Wilds), RTPs of above 96%, different coin bet options and big jackpots (non-progressive). Getting into the free spins depends on the game’s volatility and your average bet per spin, it takes approximately 50 to 80 spins before the free spins is triggered. Each slot machine is further divided into low, medium and high variance.

Live Casino

The live dealer casino is powered by Visionary iGaming and comprises of live blackjack and roulette, the games are streamed to your mobile phone or PC from a live studio via a webcam. Bear in mind that all the live games can only be played with real money.

Table Games

RTG is not known for its table game variety since it places more of an emphasis on slot machines. That said, the variety of okay, the pick of the table game crop is Baccarat, Draw Poker, Blackjack, Caribbean Stud, American and European Roulette and Pai Gow Poker.

The visuals won’t blow you away yet it gets the job done. Is there a specific table game we recommend? We like blackjack 21 by no means are we experts, we’ll deposit and play $50 hoping to hit that elusive 21 against the dealer. To be good at blackjack you must know its rules, odds and betting strategy. If you’re really into the game rather hit the live version of blackjack since it offers an immersive gaming experience with all the sights and sounds.

Video Poker

The video poker tally is consists of Stud Poker, Aces and Eights, All American, Bonus Poker, Double Bonus Poker, Deuces Wild, Double Double Jackpot Poker, Jacks or Better, Loose Deuces and Mystery Bonus Poker. You can test your video poker skills by playing the game with free credits.

Red Dog casino did not disclose the RTP (theoretical return to player percentage) of the video poker games, for us to say that the RTP of each video poker game is above 98% would be presumptuous although it comes across as such. It’s best to play the game you fancy with free credits to get an idea about its RTP.

Progressive Jackpots

RTG boasts a neat selection that counts in Megasaur, Aztec’s Millions, Jackpot Pinatas, Caribbean Hold’Em Poker, Caribbean Stud Poker, Shopping Spree I and II, Spirit of the Inca and Aztec’s Millions. Progressive wins vary from a few thousands up to millions.

Specialty Games

We get the impression that RTG just added these games (scratch cards, bingo and keno) to round off its game library, yet they count towards the roll over requirement of the welcome bonus, beats us.

Customer Support

The client base at Red Dog Casino is good we tested its email support twice, the first time we received a reply within 15 minutes and the second time 25 minutes, given that we’re at the opposite end of the globe (Spain) we’d say this is pretty good. Support can be reached at assistance@reddogcasino.com, live chat or phone if you’re based in the US (+1 850 2703 887).
