Littlewoods Casino Review

When choosing an online casino most players don’t look straight to the history of the company to make their decision. Maybe they should pay more attention though because you are essentially trusting complete strangers with info that you wouldn’t give to your very best friend. Keep that in mind while we tell you a little bit about Littlewoods. Littlewoods has been open for business since 1923. Now, that is a long time for any company but especially one in the betting world. During that time they have achieved and maintained a reputation for discretion, integrity, and security that is respected throughout the gaming industry. Now knowing all that don’t you feel better about trusting them?

When we first arrived at Littlewoods casino we instantly noticed that someone had done some redecorating since our last visit, and a long overdue spring cleaning. The old Littlewoods casino was so jam packed with stuff that you couldn’t find where you were going. This new and improved version is much more sleek and streamlined. We especially liked the easy navigation and pertinent new user information.

Like so many of their big rivals, Littlewoods has decided to use the Cryptologic software to offer its games. What this means to you is that you will be required to download the software before you can access the fun. If your dial-up connection will simply not handle something like this, then you can have the company mail you a CD copy. The only big black spot is that this software is only able to support Windows users. So if you are one of that ever growing number of Mac users out there you probably don’t even want to bother with reading any further. If and when Littlewoods has a non-downloading Flash option then we will have more to offer you.

If your system meets all the requirements then you should find the installation process to be very easy to follow. We ran though the whole thing and didn’t have the first problem. One thing that we felt was a very nice touch was that only a small selection of games is included in the initial download. Then while you are taking advantage of the generous free play option to try things out, other games will be loading up in the background. You will notice new options popping up as each finishes loading.

Cryptologic does a great job of delivering a very rich and luxurious effect to all of Littlewoods’ games. They also deliver a tempting set of customization options so that each player can create their own unique experience. Yes, there are some options not supported here that you can find at other casinos, but we really don’t think that you will miss them in the least.

If you find that multi-player games are where the action is at for you, then you should be very happy to see the Cryptologic logo. They are they ones who support this type of play the very best. One of the things that you often lose by switching to online gaming versus a real casino is the wonderful social aspect and culture. As some of the best parts of a trip can be the people that you meet, it is very nice to see this added back into the play. It makes for a much more authentic overall experience. You will quickly find that the chat rooms are only open in the “real money,” versions of all the games, but truthfully we weren’t surprised to see this. If you just want a chat room there are a million of those out there, Littlewoods is running a casino.

If incentives are your thing then we don’t think you’ll find much to complain about at Littlewoods. All new players have access to a nice Welcome Bonus and there are a few other cash incentives worth looking into. The selection wasn’t earth shattering but it was comparable to what you will find at rival casinos. What will really stop you in your tracks though are the very impressive totals on the progressive jackpots. Those things just seem to get bigger and bigger every time we stop by. In fact, the last time we looked, there was one in the 4 million pounds range. We aren’t going to tell you which one, just make you really curious so you’ll have to go see for yourself.

Customer service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and you will have your choice of either freephone or e-mail to get your questions answered. We took a sample of both and found nothing to worry about; the agents were fast, friendly, and knowledgeable. What more could you ask for?

At the end of the day we feel that Littlewoods Casino is a solid all around choice for any player. There were no real areas of glaring weaknesses. Yes, we would like to see them expand their software options, but that doesn’t affect the play quality for customers who can access the site now. Don’t take our word for it though. Instead, take them up on their very generous free play options and see for yourself if Littlewoods is right for you. After all, in the end you are the only one who can answer that question.
