Play Classy with Golden Chip Roulette

Yggdrasil Gaming is a game development company which is best known for its numerous online slot titles, including recent releases such as Jackpot Raiders, Tesla’s Incredible Machine and Sahara Nights. However, the company is also no stranger to creating top-quality table games, and after bringing us Dr Fortuno Blackjack, Lucky Blackjack and Sonya Blackjack, the developers have now released their very classy take on another traditional staple with Golden Chip Roulette.

Elegance Defined

Golden Chip Roulette is the very definition of elegance in an online table game, with sumptuous graphics and animations that perform equally well on desktops, tablets and mobile devices. You are given a top-down perspective on the wheel itself, and the game designers have gone to great lengths to ensure that its rate of spin is as close to the real thing as possible – something that you’ll particularly appreciate when the wheel slows and the ball approaches its final resting place.

The core game here is European Roulette, so there is just one green zero on the wheel, and in terms of house edge that makes the game slightly less favourable to the casino than would be the case with a game of American Roulette. Bets are placed on a standard table layout, so you won’t have any trouble finding your way around, but if you are playing on a touchscreen device you can pinch to zoom in on any area, rendering it just as easy to play on a small screen as on a large one.

A smooth jazz soundtrack plays throughout, and although you can choose to mute this at any point, it really is a feature which helps to enhance the aspect of relaxing recreation. For anyone who likes to wind down with a laid back table game at the end of a long day, Golden Chip Roulette will serve the purpose very well indeed. Those who like an additional shot of adrenaline will also be very well catered for by the Golden Chip feature which is one of the main things that sets this title apart from all the other roulette games that are currently available.

Golden Chip Feature

The Golden Chip feature is one that can increase the excitement level of this superbly relaxing game by a considerable degree. Simply place a straight-up bet (that is, an outright bet on a single number) in the usual manner and your chip will turn gold. Your bet will then be assigned a random multiplier value, which could be worth 10, 25, 50, 75, 100, 250 or even 500, and if your golden chip bet wins, your bet will be multiplied by the value selected.

This obviously means that there is a risk of winning less than the standard odds of 35 to 1 if your random multiplier value is x10 or x25, but if the multiplier is worth X50 or more, success will put you a long way ahead than would be the case with regular odds.

Alternating Spin Direction

Whereas the roulette wheel in a regular game always spins in the same direction, the wheel in Golden Chip Roulette will spin in alternating directions. This adds another element of difference to the game, but it won’t affect your chances of winning either way.

Check the Stats

Roulette players who like to keep an eye on which numbers have come up on previous spins of the wheel can make good use of a statistics and history feature. You can use this to identify so-called ‘hot’ and ‘cold’ numbers, as well as ‘streaks’ of red, black, odd and even numbers, and whilst past performance has no bearing on the next spin, following such stats can be a lot of fun.

Play Classy!

This is a genuinely classy game which should delight anyone who fancies playing a relaxing game of roulette which is different enough from the norm to be something special. Look out for Golden Chip Roulette at Mr Green Casino and other venues which offer Yggdrasil Gaming titles.
