Royal Derby mobile is a virtual horse racing casino game that combines the buzz of the races with speed and the efficiency of mobile gaming.
Horse racing fans looking to get involved in mobile casinos will be over the moon with Royal Derby mobile as it gives them a realistic virtual horse race to bet casino credits on. It is a simple game to play but one that, despite a lack of exceptional graphics, still offers great game play and the chance to win a decent payout.
The format is as simple as it comes; each race is comprised of six horses all running at varying odds. There is information on every one of the horses so you can make a more informed decision and this info ranges from recent form, to how they perform on the track in question, to how the going of the ground affects them.
Once you have picked your horse, you then get to choose a stake of anywhere between 0.50 and 100 credits and the amount you win depends on the odds of the horse but there are some big price winners in this game and you just have to find them. After choosing your stake, you then choose the type of bet with the two choices being ‘to win’ or ‘each way’. The ‘to win’ bet means your horse has to come first, whilst an each way bet doubles your stake but if your horse comes 2nd then you will get paid out at a quarter of the odds – much like real horse racing.
The race itself is a straight dash and there is always a small arrow over your horse to ensure you know your position, whilst the winner, of course, is the first horse past the winners post. If you’re a winner then your stake is multiplied by the odds.
As a game, the graphics aren’t stunning and it has quite a dated feel to it but it is very playable with the horse information, horse names and jockey information all proving to be nice touches. It also offers all sorts of gamers the chance to play as the staking level is so varied. Overall, the game is recommended and I expect you will either love it or hate it. If you like simplicity and horse racing in general then you’ll love it, whilst if you are used to video slots with amazing graphics and stories behind the games then you’ll most likely hate it.
