Casino (Jewel Case)

Rating:
Summary: Good game :)
Review: When I got this game (in a full-size box at the time, actually) I played and I was thoroughly impressed with the graphics, smoothness, interface and easiness to use. 10 different games, all fun to play and sometimes really easy to cheat at (deuces wild video poker, anyone?) make it worth the playing time.

I recommend trying out the Casino Challenge, even if it takes a while to get through it. This, along with anytime-tournament play against the computer makes it a little more fun still. And have fun seeing what all those virtual 'comps' you win are.

I only have two complaints about it, one being its lack of multiplayer capability (so no internet or LAN games, or even 2 players on the same computer). Also, the lines by the computer characters are very repetitive and I find that it sounds downright stupid to see British and Australian characters using very 'typical-American' lines such as 'my luck has gone south' or something like that. I would have preferred for each character to come with their own lines as well as their own voice. But then, I'm a Canadian, not an American; maybe I see things differently than they do.

Still, I recommend it, especially for adults who supposedly don't like video games.
