The art of Roulette – different ways you can spin the wheel online
Did you know that the Roulette wheel was actually invented by accident? It was in 1655 that French physicist and mathematician Blaise Pascal set out to defy physics and create a perpetual motion machine. Unfortunately, his invention failed. Fortunately, his failed invention birthed a primitive version of the Roulette wheel we know and love today.
In the modern-day, Roulette is a staple at casinos all around the world, and now you can even spin the wheel online, proving how the game of chance has stood the test of time. As technology has evolved, live Roulette has dominated the casino industry, with a professionally trained dealer hosting the game in-real time, streamed directly to your device to provide you with an authentic casino experience.
So, join us as we take a look at just some of the different ways you can spin the wheel online…
Mega Fire Blaze Roulette Live
In this live dealer game, the action takes place upon a European Roulette wheel, with the addition of a bonus round that’s activated when the wheel stops and the ball lands on a Fire Number. Up to five devilish digits are selected randomly at the start of the game, but if the Fire Blast occurs, 10 will be chosen! Then, the live dealer will spin the wheel, and if the outcome is not one of the Fire Numbers, the round will end and winners will be paid. If the outcome is a Fire Number, the bonus round will commence.
Only inside bets qualify for the bonus round, and during this there’ll be a maximum of 10,000x your bet up for grabs. During this round, you’ll see multiplier orbs dropping onto a grid that’s displayed digitally behind the live host; with three additional jackpot levels being thrown into the mix.
Who Wants to be a Millionaire Live Roulette
Based on the popular television gameshow Who Wants to be a Millionaire; this themed variation of live Roulette is also set upon a European Roulette wheel, with only Straight Up; Split, Street, Corner and Line Bets being eligible for the special features. Stacking multipliers can award you with up to 2,000x your bet; and up to 10 random numbers are selected at the start of the game; each with the potential to lead you to one of the four bonus rounds.
In addition to bonus rounds, themed gameplay and multipliers; there are also three lifelines that you might recognise from the classic gameshow: 50:50; which automatically removed the two options with the smallest multipliers; Ask the Audience, which presents a bar chart that automatically selects the highest;-voted answer (simulated by the game as there is no actual audience); and Ask the Host, which allows the host to remove a few of the smaller multipliers.
20p Roulette
Alongside many other themed versions of Roulette, both live and digital, there are also classic variations you can enjoy. Among this is 20p Roulette, a virtual game in which the outcome is decided by a Random Number Generator (RNG). The game features the classic European rules, with simple graphics and a chip value of 20p; with a minimum stake of £1 per game. Do to this, this classic version of Roulette is a great fit for low rollers; and even comes with a demo game so you can even practice for free!
