 So much fun for the whole family and friends! November 21, 2008
Mary Ann (Virginia)
We love this version of Hoyle Casino. It is on the computer (XP) that is now being used in the garage. I don't have it installed on the house computer (Vista) yet but will be doing that today. I feel this is far superior to the 2009 version. FYI: the tutorials can actually help you understand games better before going to Vegas. Now that IS a win-win situation!
 I enjoyed this November 16, 2008

Am enjoying the table games - poker especially. Was disappointed in the selection of video and slot games. Most of the games do not have enough lines and can't compare to the ones available in our casinos here. Good offering of table games and have a good interaction. I like the face changer setup. In general it's OK, and I'm having some fun. JH

It works fine. There is some audio breakup periodically but nothing annoying.
Sobering and Challenging August 4, 2008

If you've never been in a real casino and have visions of sitting down at the Blackjack table and making incredibly gutsy calls like James Bond and winning huge money while some stacked blonde gets her panties in a wad leaning on your shoulder, this game will expose you to the reality of casino gaming without bankrupting you.
The first mind-blowing fact in this game is how easy it is to utterly destroy your original stake of $5000 chasing after that elusive "big win." The truth about casino gaming is that, to win big, you have to bet big, and betting big is something that a poor schmuck with just a measly $5000 can NOT afford to do in Vegas, Monte Carlo, Atlantic City or anywhere else.
The second thing you will learn in Hoyle Casino is that emerging from a casino with more money than you walked in with is something close to a miracle, and it will require a combination of luck and iron-willed self-discipline from you. Think about it, folks - you don't build a place like Caesar's Palace or Wynn Las Vegas because your company has a history of LOSING money. The casino business is probably second only to petroleum in having a fool-proof system for fleecing its customers and sending them home in a barrel. If you are going into a casino to be entertained, great. Have some drinks, and make sure to leave your ATM card in the hotel room.
On the other hand, if you are going into a casino with the goal of beating the house by ANY amount, (much less by a significant one,) you will have to be smart, educated and lucky. The smart comes from birth and life, the luck comes from... who knows? But the education comes from right here. Read the manual VERY carefully where the games you are interested in are concerned, then practice, practice, practice.
Hoyle Casino is a GREAT place to learn the hard knowledge you will want to have before you even dream of walking into the den of wolves that the real-life casino most absolutely is, and if you take to heart the hard lessons that Hoyle Casino can teach, you might have a chance of coming out ahead in Vegas.
