Gambling has completely transformed in recent years, and while you are still able to head down to your local casino, online gambling is in a league of its own. Games like poker can now be played in the comfort of your own home. What’s more, you don’t need a gaming computer to play any of it!

Some of the best online games

Not only are these online casino games great to play, you only need a basic desktop computer or laptop and a reliable internet connection to have fun.

Table Games

Poker

Much like the traditional card games popular at casinos, online poker rules and gameplay are identical to that of the physical card game. However, some key differences do exist, and these include:

• The online game tends to be much faster than the physical game.
• You can play with smaller amounts of money.
• It’s more accessible, meaning you can play anywhere and at any time.

Poker is very popular across the globe, due to how fun and thrilling the game can be. And don’t forget, it’s quite an intellectual game as well, so put on those thinking caps.

It’s pretty easy to play poker online, and you can play it on any device.

Blackjack

Blackjack is arguably the easiest casino game on the planet—in both physical and online casinos. Also known as 21, the premise of this game is simple: all your cards must add up to 21 or as close as possible without going over. Beat your dealer’s hand or make them go bust, and you win. It couldn’t be simpler.

With online blackjack, there are two variations, European and American, but most online players seem pretty satisfied with either of the two. Some of the advantages of playing online include a broader range of table limits, playing at any time, anywhere, and more side bets.

Roulette

Playing this one online might not have the same effect as playing in a physical casino, but it’s still loads of fun. If ever there was a game of chance, it’s this one. Roulette uses a 37 or 38 black and red colored wheel (one block is green). You place your bet, then the wheel is spun, and the ball is dropped. Fingers crossed it lands on the number you picked.

Now one can see where you might lose some of the fun of the physical game, but online roulette is easy; you don’t need a fancy device to play it, and what’s more, you can scream and shout and let it all out in the comfort of your own home.

Slots

Now I know some of you might be wondering how it’s possible to play a slot machine game on your desktop PC, laptop, or even cellphone, but it is! You can play slots in your own home and at any time. Slot machine games have a variety of themes which make them all too exciting. Themes range from Ancient Egypt (quite popular) to space quests, movies and series, and even board games. You are truly spoilt for choice.

Here are some of the games you can play:

Bellagio Fountain of Fortune

Well, if you can’t go to the Bellagio in person, why not bring it straight to you with this super easy and entertaining slot machine game. It’s a 5×5 with 20 pay lines, including free spins if you’re lucky.

Wheel of Fortune

Wouldn’t you want 117,649 ways to win at the slot machines? With Wheel of Fortune, those are precisely your odds. Some of the great benefits of this game include having the chance to trigger Mega Stacks whenever the symbols land. In the free spin rounds, up to two reels can display about 10 Wilds each.

Jumanji

This game is based on the legendary 1995 movie we all love. Released in 2018, Jumanji is not your typical online slot machine game. The five reels form three to five rows, all within the “scary” Jumanji board—talk about nostalgia. What’s even better is that each symbol is directly from the movie, so you’ll see the rhino and alligators too. Exciting jungle sounds are also in the background, transporting you to a whole new world.

Temple of Fire

The reason slot machine games pull at your imagination is how well-themed they are. Let’s take a look at Temple of Fire. The game is Aztec mythology-inspired so expect to see the wilds light up in flames and spread across the reels. If you prove yourself worthy, the Fire Goddess will reward you with many riches! You can play this online game on any device, and it offers a wide range of betting options per spin.

Adventures of Doublood Island

Pirates all around. What makes this game so unique is the fact that the entire premise is based on finding hidden treasure while having fun and potentially winning some cash in the process. Some of the features include stacked wild symbols, bonus rounds with respins (excellent), and some free games. Can you play this on any device? Absolutely!

Invaders

Who said space-themed games are solely available to nerds? Well, this simply isn’t true. As the name suggests, Invaders is space-themed and so much fun. You will see UFOs land on each spin and select a random symbol to turn Wild when landing on reels two to five. They had us at UFO.

Hotline 2

I know you are either thinking Miami Vice or Magnum P.I. Step back into the 80s with this thrilling online slot game that takes it to the streets. The backdrop of 80s Miami really offers a sense of nostalgia. It revitalizes that bygone era for those looking to relive it and even those just looking for an exciting slot game. Hotline 2 comes with a storyline of two detectives who are investigating the robbery of a jewelry store.
