River Nile Casino Review

Here is another casino powered by Microgaming and boasting an impressive array of games. There are two versions of the casino to consider, because they offer both the viper download software and the instant play flash casinos.

River Nile has changed its “face” since the last time I visited the website. However the foundation and information available is fairly much unchanged. It is a very stable establishment and they are always offering you new promotions and competitions, which keep you busy.

It is only fair for me to mention their play-through regulations, because this is something players need to understand. I often advise players to read the terms and conditions at any casino they are interested in joining. It is important to note that play-through requirements are carried over until such time that they are met. So, if you make your first deposit and accept the sign up bonus, you will need to meet the wagering requirements before you can cash out any winnings. As with any online operation, there are always terms and conditions, so make sure that you familiarize yourself with them. Bear in mind that River Nile Casino is a licensed and registered casino and, as such, adhere strictly to the rules of fair play

River Nile Bonus

I have played at River Nile Casino in the past and, as such, I am familiar with the bonuses that they offer. I have found that their promotional and bonus offerings are always generous. The Free Play offer gives new players the opportunity to play with casino credits for an hour. Players are allowed to keep some of their winnings. Again, I emphasise that it is important for you to read the terms and conditions to gain more insight into the bonuses. First-time players receive a 200% Initial Match Bonus on their first deposit. When you make your first deposit, you also receive 50 Free Spins on the Celtic-themed video slot game, Avalon. Playing with these Free Spins is a great way to get started at the casino.

River Nile Casino is all about entertainment and rewards. Aside from the usual games, there is a decent assortment of entertainment for players. There are regular tournaments for players, including daily free rolls (like Reloader, Extender and Survivor). There are also weekly and monthly tournaments for players looking for bigger rewards.

I scoured the site to see what other promotions there are, and found that there is a special free roll tournament hosted every ten days, for ten days. I think that it would be worth your while to try this out, too.

Loyalty

I found the Loyalty Program similar to the other Loyalty programs at Vegas Partner Lounge casinos. As a new player, you are automatically added to the program and extended 250 loyalty points as a welcome gift. To accumulate points, all you need to do is play. The more you play, the more points you can collect. Once you have accumulated enough points, these points can be converted into casino rewards or casino cash. It is important to note that different games offer different loyalty points. Blackjack, as an example, doesn’t count towards loyalty points, whereas slot games can count for triple points. You will be surprised how quickly these points accumulate.

Download and Registration

River Nile casino is available in five languages: English, French, German, Dutch and Spanish. You can download any of these casinos in almost no time. The download takes only a few minutes as it is relatively small at only 500kb. While you are downloading the casino you can start registering a Real Player account, which I recommend as this opens the door for better rewards. There is, however, a no-download flash version of the casino, too. This allows for instant play. It is your choice as to which version you prefer, but I find that the convenience of the downloaded casino makes it totally worthwhile. As soon as you have completed the formalities, you can head on over to the Banking area to make your first deposit.

Banking

River Nile Casino offers a choice of currencies in which to play. You can play in some of the mainstream currencies, like the US Dollar, British Pound or Euros. For ease and convenience, there are numerous options when it comes to banking at this casino. You can find a method that is suited to you, or even convenient for your location. Some of the options are Credit Cards, NETeller, Click2Pay, iDeal, Moneybookers, Instadebit and ECO Card. You can explore these options and find the one best suited to you.

One of the reasons why I feel safe at this casino is that all transactions are secure with the 128-bit encryption software that they make use of for banking and confidential information. As this is the same type of encryption that is used with other types of online banking institutions, you are assured that your deposits and withdrawals are always safe and your personal information is secure. As usual I elected to deposit via Neteller and put in $100. This transaction was completed quickly and easily and I was ready to hit the gaming arena!

Games offering

I have to say that I am always excited to play any of the games at a Microgaming casino. The reason for this is that I know the games are good quality and that there is a possibility of winning real rewards. As a Microgaming casino, River Nile offers a great assortment of games. There are slots, table games, video poker games and other unique games, which aren’t found at a regular casino.

I always find it difficult to choose where to begin with the games, but I decided to try out a Multi-Player game for starters. One of the newest Multi-Player games is Multi-Player Isis. I love all things Egyptian, so this game really spoke to me. However, it didn’t speak to my casino account, so while my bankroll was still healthy I headed off to the tables, where I indulged in the diamond edition of Multi-Player Roulette. These games are definitely for socialisers and they add a new dimension to online gaming. I enjoyed playing at the tables (always a favourite of mine), and after a good while making some conservative bets, I had grown my casino credits a bit, so I headed off to the one place where I can spoil myself: the slots. I noticed that there are quite a few new slots at the casino, but I can’t resist some old favourites like Hellboy and Pharaoh’s Tomb. I found some newer games on the slots menu that seemed quite inviting: Queen of the Jungle and Sterling Silver 3D ended up on my play-list, and I was not disappointed at all. I loved the 3D game and this has become one of my new favorites.

There is a nice variety of games for all types of players. There are easy games for the first-timers and there are games designed for more experienced players.  I found that the sheer quantity of games made choosing very difficult. As advertised on the website, there are well over 500 games, 25 Progressives and new games that are added to the casino, monthly.

Customer Support

I didn’t really have a reason to contact Customer Support, but for the sake of this review I thought of a few questions and opted to contact them through the live chat facility. The casino representative was courteous and answered all my queries patiently. You can contact the casino at any time via live chat, email or through one of the toll free numbers for specific countries. I cannot fault this casino’s service at all.

The verdict

I find that River Nile Casino offers many features, games, bonuses, promotions, and banking options. This makes it a very easy-to-use casino. It is a licensed casino and adheres to fair play. As the casino makes use of modern encryption, it is safe to play here and offers a sense of security. I enjoyed playing at River Nile and I would suggest it to anyone.
