What do we mean by casino games

The term ‘casino games’ tends to mean different things to different age groups in our society. Before personal computers and the internet, casino games were what we were able to play in the land based casinos, assuming there was one in our area, and were generally restricted to roulette, blackjack and a few slot machines. The introduction of online casinos has however drastically changed our perception of what we mean by a casino game, and more importantly, how many of these casino games we are now able to play. It is debatable for instance whether the older generation amongst us would have described a slot machine as a casino game at all, given that we were more likely to play a slot machine in a pub or club than in a casino. Nowadays, the slots and video slots at our online casinos are not only far more sophisticated, but they constitute by far the majority of the online casino games offered at our online casinos. The original casino games such as roulette and blackjack are still available at almost all the online casinos, and also appear in many different forms including the relatively new live casino format. We now also have many of the games we used to play socially amongst ourselves readily available at the online casinos, including poker and 3-card brag, plus of course a lot of card and dice games many of us had never heard of before online casinos brought them to our attention. It is this proliferation of new casino games which persuaded us at onlinecasino.ie to include the rules of the most popular new online casino games in our individual casino games pages, which we hope will prove useful for the increasing number of people starting to play casino games online. Whatever generation we are, playing casino games online now offers us the opportunity to enjoy a huge range of games to suit all tastes and all budgets, so let’s not dwell on what they are called, just enjoy playing your favourite casino games.
