Paddy Power Games Bonus

Design & Usability

Anybody familiar with the Paddy Power brand will feel instantly at home with the famous white and green colourway. The sleek and professional design is underpinned by superb backend software, making for one of the fastest and most efficient user interfaces I’ve personally experienced.

I was particularly impressed by the casino homepage, which manages to fit exhaustive gaming options and categories without being overly cluttered. A compact horizontal scrolling menu with several primary options and a game search bar at the top of the screen provides several avenues to help players find their gaming preferences. Alternatively, scroll down for dozens of specific sections for things like new slots, original slots, and a few different jackpot networks.

The best Paddy Power design features were the exceptionally powerful search filters. Only PlayOJO can really come close here, although I found the interface to be slightly more awkward, while Paddy Power presents things with its trademark smooth software and options. I could filter games by type, theme, bonus features, volatility, provider, RTP, and release date. It was fantastic for finding new games and makes such a significant difference compared to most operators who often don’t even provide the simplest search tools.

Software

While I cannot fault the Paddy Power collection of software providers too much, it’s worth noting that there are fewer brands available than at many other sites. I could choose from 20 developers at the time of writing, including established players like Big Time Gaming and Pragmatic Play. It was also nice to see smaller companies like Core Gaming and Cayetano well represented. Moreover, I also got to taste the innovation offered by state-of-the-art companies like Inspired and Relax Gaming.

Nevertheless, the omission of Microgaming was a big miss. Moreover, there’s only one Big Time Gaming title in the collection. It’s disappointing compared to other sites like Duelz that even offers rarer forward-thinking BGT titles like Cyberslots Megaclusters and Kluster Krystal Megaclusters.

Games

• Gambling Site

Paddy Power sits right at the top of the online casino rankings going by sheer gaming variety. The multifaceted gambling operator is renowned for offering the creme-de-la-creme of sports betting, lotteries, slots, live dealer games, bingo, poker, and fantasy sports, so there’s very little missing from the overall selection.

The online slots range is packed with top-tier titles, with many available exclusively at Paddy Power before any other online casino. For example, I got my hands on games like Catapult Cash and Oil Tycoon from the emerging provider Core Gaming before anybody else. Players can also access several branded slots like Paddy Power Gold Book of Luck and Paddy Power Bonanza Fortune Play, demonstrating the gambling brand’s pedigree.

There’s also a decent range of progressive jackpot slots, mainly focussing on Blueprint’s Jackpot King network. Despite having dozens of options, this is still an area where Paddy Power can ultimately improve. I missed Mega Moolah or WowPot games, for example, with other notable jackpot omissions like Divine Fortune. The operator could also do better with its Megaways slots selection, as only nine are currently available.

Live dealer enthusiasts will love the options available. I always take note of online casino operators with their own exclusive tables, and Paddy Power goes above and beyond with six branded options courtesy of a partnership with Playtech. The Live Paddy Power Elite Blackjack was a personal favourite, mixing high table limits with a plush design and some interesting special features.

Paddy Power also excels with its gameshow selection, offering several examples I haven’t seen elsewhere. For example, you can play on certified classics like Mega Ball and Crazy Time or go off-piste with Fashion TV Mega Party Live, Everybody’s Jackpot Live, and other rarer titles.

Slots

Paddy Power’s slot portfolio is the place to go if you’re looking for something different. 

While there are many of the biggest name slots here (Bonanza Megaways, Cleopatra II, Fishin’ Frenzy, Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen, etc.) the main feature here is the wide array of exclusive games and the Daily Jackpots. 

The Daily Jackpots include numerous titles like Primate King, Rainbow Jackpots, and Vault Cracker, and drop a jackpot usually surpassing £10,000 every day. However, other jackpot slots – most notably Mega Fortune and Divine Fortune from NetEnt, and Microgaming’s famous Mega Moolah – are missing. That isn’t to say there are no well-known jackpot slots, the ongoing close partnership between Paddy Power and Playtech means the full Age of the Gods progressive jackpot series is here. 

It’s genuinely impressive how many Paddy Power slots have ‘Exclusive’ written above them. These include Eye of Anubis, Mystery Gold, Well of Wilds Megaways, and many more slots that you won’t find outside Paddy Power. 

These exclusive slots help to set the site apart, bringing unique gameplay to a slot selection, something very few casinos manage to do. 

Whether these exclusive slots are better than the titles we’re more accustomed to is in the eye of the beholder. But you don’t have to choose between exclusives and fan favourites, because Paddy Power Games has a host of your favourite slots on offer, too.

Live Casino

In case the exclusive selection of slots wasn’t enough, there’s a host of exclusive, branded Playtech live dealer games to be found at this online casino. 

Live Paddy Power Elite Blackjack is the standout from an array of Paddy Power branded blackjack and roulette games.

As with the slots, there are more familiar names here too, with the best coming from Evolution Gaming – as is often the case.

Outside of traditional table games – which the developer provides in abundance – Evolution also provides its famous game show titles including Crazy Time and Monopoly Live, while Adventures Beyond Wonderland and Live Money Drop can also be enjoyed at the Paddy Power Games Live Casino. 

With table limits that start in single figures, moving up to £10,000 and potentially beyond, there’s likely to be a live dealer game to suit all tastes and all budgets at Paddy Power Games, 

All the titles here are streamed from state-of-the-art studios, with croupiers who are as well-trained as they are friendly. This allows for a fun, communal experience to get you as close to that Vegas feeling as you can without leaving your home.

There are tables available round the clock here, so whether you’re an early morning player or a night owl, you’ll always find an exciting live game to play.

Paddy Power achieves a fairly rare blend of super-quick withdrawals and relatively wide-ranging payment methods. In my experience at other sites with instant bank transfer support like PlayOJO, there aren’t usually that many other banking options. Paddy Power bucks the trend, even offering MuchBetter. Here’s a complete list:

• Visa
• Mastercard
• Apple Pay
• Instant Bank Transfer
• Cash
• PayPal
• Skrill
• Neteller
• Paysafecard
• Rapid Transfer
• MuchBetter

Use the Instant Bank Transfer method to claim instantaneous withdrawals. The other options also have quick withdrawal processing speeds, but you’ll have to wait a few hours. Remember only debit cards are eligible for the welcome bonus, a slight drawback.

Support Options

Customer support is another area where Paddy Power shows its innate gambling pedigree. The FAQ section is so comprehensive you may never need to contact an actual advisor. However, 24/7 live chat, email, and telephone support is available if you do run into any problems.

I had no doubts that the Paddy Power HTML5 website would perform exceptionally on all devices, and I wasn’t wrong. The operator offers top-of-the-range software, with the website altering to fit each screen size perfectly. The extensive search filters and categories also came in particularly handy on smaller displays.
