Sun Vegas Casino is a Microgaming-powered casino, part of the Vegas Partner Lounge group of casinos, which is one of the largest and most well known names in the industry. I originally played at this casino a couple of years back when it was newly launched, and I wondered how much it had changed since. Although I still had the software loaded on my desktop, I decided to take the entire tour and see what was new.
The Sun Vegas Casino landing page is quite attractive and certainly infused with “solar energy” that seems to become contagious as you browse through the pages of the site. Sun Vegas Casino boasts a 150% Match bonus, Over 550 games and a variety of Jackpots, whose tickers become mesmerizing as they climb higher and higher each second.
Also, all the other information you may need including Banking, getting started, loyalty, support, promotions etc. is only a page away and set out in a user friendly format, with 8 language options including English, French, German, Italian, Dutch, Greek and Swedish. I had a really good feeling after looking through the site and headed off to open the software I had pre-loaded.
If you are new to this casino, you have the option of selecting to play at either the Flash or Download versions of the casino and I’d recommend the downloaded version as they always seem to have all the extras that the Flash versions usually don’t offer. Then again, it’s really a matter of personal taste, the available space on your PC and the speed of your connection.
The download version of Sun Vegas Casino is quick and easy to install (around 500kb) – and while the casino is downloading, you will be prompted to register your account. While the download is taking place, you could also browse the site and read about all that they have on offer, such as the promotions and bonus offerings.
The bonus and promotional offerings at Sun Vegas Casino include a welcome bonus for lower deposits and a high roller bonus for players who wish to deposit higher amounts. Please see the details on the right hand side.
After reviewing the T&C’s, which is something you should always do when joining a casino, I decided to head off and see what the loyalty club was all about…a lot of people play at this casino and there must be a reason why!
Sun Vegas’ Loyalty Club has quite a nice loyalty program and you are automatically entered into this when registering a Real Account. You are also eligible for 250 free loyalty points, which is a really great start to your casino experience.
Also, for every $10 you bet, you will receive 1 loyalty point, so the more you play, the more you earn these can also be redeemed for free tokens.
Once your software is downloaded you will need to register a new account (just follow the steps), and make your first deposit via any of a number of banking methods that are available. These include Credit Cards, NetTeller, Click2Pay, Moneybookers, EZ Pay, UseMyBank, Switch & Solo Card, InstaDebit, iDeal, Citadel and Paysafe Card.
Once I’d eventually found my username and password for the casino, I made a deposit of $100 via Neteller, although you do have the option to deposit in UK Pounds, Euros and Canadian Dollars. After completing my banking transaction quickly and easily, I decided to head off to the casino to check out some of their almost 600 games on offer.
The games offering at Sun Vegas is presented in the familiar Microgaming lobby format and there really are so many choices.
I decided to start with the Table games, rather than my usual favorite slots, and gravitated towards the Blackjack tables but was overwhelmed by the wide variety of choices in front of me! Sun Vegas offers every conceivable type of blackjack game, ranging from European to Vegas Strip blackjack. The table game bet sizes are fairly reasonable at this casino and range from $2 to $200 for most games. However, I did notice that certain tables allow high rollers to play with $100 minimums and $2000 maximums – a little too rich for my blood, but still optional nonetheless.
Like most Microgaming casinos, the game play at Sun Vegas is superb, with excellent, cutting edge graphics and casino audio, the experience is an enjoyable one time after time.
Finishing slightly up on the Blackjack Tables, I headed off to try out a few others including European Roulette, 3 Card Poker, Baccarat and a couple of throws of the Craps dice! Unfortunately I came off a little worse off after these and headed for my all time favorites…the slots!
Now, the slots on offer at Sun Vegas are as impressive as they are plentiful and you’re sure to find your all time favorites at this casino, as well as much, much more. Feeling lucky, I headed off to the Progressive Slots first and had a couple of spins on both Major Millions and Cash Splash which are both fantastic! After more time than I intended to spend on these I decided that maybe it wasn’t my day to be a jackpot winner and so reluctantly I dragged myself away to the other Video Slots on offer and found Tomb Raider, a total classic! After a flutter on this, I tried out some of the newly launched slots, which are equally as impressive as the existing favorites out there, and sure to become hits of their own in the very near future.
In addition to progressive and video slots, Sun Vegas also offers everything from 3-reel to multi-line bonus slots with a variety of bonus, wild and free spin features…truly a slot player’s delight!
After almost losing the very last of my bankroll, (with a balance of $3.50) I decided that I’d played enough for one day and fought the urge to return to the cashier…although I was aware that in 5-8 hours my deposit bonus would be credited and I’d be ready for round two! Usually, cashins take around 48 hours to complete and the casino may ask you to provide ID documents to do this, but it is all part of being an eCogra-sealed casino…if you want the benefit of peace of mind, you’ll just have to comply!
I decided to make sure my bonus would be credited as I needed an excuse to contact support (and my experience thus far hadn’t warranted that, which is always a good thing), so I pulled up the casino Support page to see what methods were available to me. Sun Vegas offers 24/7 support via toll free telephone numbers for an array of countries and contact can be made via e-mail but they also offer Live help, which is great and very responsive. I only waited 30 seconds before being connected to a casino representative who dealt with my query in a professional yet friendly manner and I ended the chat highly impressed by their support operation.
Sun Vegas is not only a safe and secure online casino; it is also a place where you will experience total enjoyment in your gaming experience. The initial download is quite small and easy to install, the pending period for a cash-in takes 24 hours. There is a huge variety of games on offer, flawless customer support and a loyalty program that pays you to play, all of which ensures that you will enjoy every minute of the time spent here. I highly recommend trying this casino for yourself.
