RTG Roulette

For many casino players, there is not a game that is more exciting than roulette. Compared to slot machines and other automatic, computerized games, it is glamorous, elegant, often portrayed in a romantic light in film and literature. Indeed, roulette is surrounded by a certain mystique and even when it is played online, it retains much of its allure due to being, in essence, a game based on chance. One of the companies that keep this fascination alive is RealTime Gaming or RTG, one of the oldest and most popular providers of online gaming software.

Company Overview

RealTime Gaming, often referred to as RTG, is among the first developers of gaming content for the online gambling industry. It was established in 1998 in Atlanta, Georgia, but after 10 years, it was acquired by Hastings International B.V and relocated to Costa Rica. Its owner is based in Curacao and practically all casinos using RTG’s gaming software hold licenses from the Government of Curacao.

Most players know well that the Caribbean regulator does not provide the greatest customer protection. At the same time, RTG-powered casinos are among the very few websites that welcome players from the United States. This makes RealTime Gaming’s slots and table games a preferred option for US-based gamblers. We should also point out that just like most of its competitors, RTG focuses heavily on video slots.

Still, its gaming portfolio has some interesting progressive jackpot games, video poker variations, and classic table games. In most RTG-powered online casinos, you would also find several versions of roulette under the Specialty Games category. What all games by this studio have in common is that they are quite simple and easy to play but, at the same time, they are equally colorful and fun. Since many of them were developed in the 2010s, the quality of the graphics is not as impressive, though.

RTG Roulette Software and Features

As mentioned above, RTG has created a huge number of slot games over the years but it has only a handful of roulette variations in its portfolio. It is important to remember that the full collection of RTG games can be accessed only after downloading the software on your computer. It is available for Windows, while Mac users can access the instant-play gaming platform of RTG by opening their preferred web browser (Google Chrome is recommended, however).

The mobile versions of the games are also compatible with most iOS and Android devices. Overall, the roulette variations developed by RealTime Gaming are quite standard – they follow the basic rules of traditional, land-based roulette, and offer the full payouts for each type of bet. Casino patrons should find them easy to play, especially due to the fact that there are no special bets available, no statistics to look at, and no additional settings to adjust.

The game uses the same layout but all buttons, features, and the bets can be accessed from compact, convenient menus and buttons at the bottom of the screen. Players can use the Autoplay function or open the Paytable with a single click of the mouse.

Along with the Inside and Outside Bets, the game offers the Neighbor Bets and all versions of Call Bets described above – Voisins, Tiers du Cylindre, Orphelins, and the two Finales bets. In addition, they can save certain combinations of bets and betting patterns with the Favorites feature.
