Littlewoods Casino Review

Littlewoods is definitely no spring chicken when it comes to betting, or gaming period actually. They have been in business longer than most of our grandparents have been alive, since 1923 to be exact. The company has used that time to build somewhat of an empire of betting halls, both real and virtual. With all this past comes a solid reputation that any player can value. While most players don’t normally take the time to look into the details of their casino, they probably should. With the information you are about to hand over, you want to be certain that they will handle themselves with the upmost integrity at all times. Now that we are sure that Littlewoods can be a safe choice, let’s go find out if they can be the fun one as well.

The site has just recently undergone a complete makeover, and a much needed one at that. The first version was very cluttered making it hard to figure out where you needed to go. Now Littlewoods has brought things up to date with a very tidy easy to follow site. It is also a very gender friendly design as we noticed the complete lack of overly busty showgirls draped across our tables. We have found that we really don’t miss them either.

When you go behind the scene you will find that Littlewoods has gone with the popular choice of Cryptologic software to deliver their games. As many of you may know, this means that you will have to download and install the package before you can start to play. If the thought of all that time is just more than your dial-up connection can handle don’t worry, the company will mail you out your very own CD copy. The biggest flaw in this whole set-up is that there is no non-downloading option. This means that at this time only Windows users can access the site. We hope that Littlewoods is working to expand their options here and thus open the site up to a much larger variety of players.

If your system makes the cut, then you will probably find that you have no problems with either downloading or installing the games. We went through the steps on our Windows XP machine and didn’t run into any trouble. In a nice time saving feature, only a small selection of the games is installed initially. Then while you are sampling those, others are loading in the background. It’s just one more way to get you playing that much faster. Take note of the free play option and use it to find all your favorites before you deposit your own cash.

These games have a rich feel to them that can only be found with the Cryptologic software. We love that this suite comes complete with plenty of customization options to let each player set his or her own preferences. You will find several different choices for both aesthetics and system requirements. This particular package may not offer some of the “expert” functions that you will find elsewhere, but it detracts nothing from the quality of the game.

Littlewoods having Cryptologic on board opens up one great option with their multi-player gaming functions. As casinos are as much of a social affair as anything else, it is nice to have that aspect brought back into your virtual playing. The chat rooms are great, but you can only access them through the real money games. This shouldn’t surprise anyone as Littlewoods is in business to run a casino not a chat room.

The promotions pool at Littlewoods is pretty standard compared to what you will run into on other sites. They currently offer a Welcome Bonus to new players as well as other cash incentives. What really made our ears perk up here though was the mention of some very healthy jackpots. We went hunting, and found one on the Millionaire’s Club three reel slot that was over 4 million pounds. We would love to give that a new home.

Customer support proved to be no problem. We tried out both of their advertised options of freephone and e-mail and had no trouble with either one. If you find yourself faced with any kind of problem, then head right on over and give them a shout. It is what they are there for after all.

So, we have come to the point in our review where we have to decide whether or not we should send you to Littlewoods for all your gaming fun. After careful consideration we have to proclaim a very solid yes. Littlewoods is really the whole package. The have great games, with solid software, detailed formats, fun customization, and some very tempting jackpots. They really are the whole package. Even though different things matter to different players we don’t think that anyone can find much to fault here. If any of this perks you interest, then take advantage of those free plays and try it for yourself. After all, what do you have to lose?
