Encore Casino Games Collection Reviews

VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH LAYOUT AND GAME PLAY . MANY FREE GAMES ARE MUCH BETTER. THIS IS A WASTE OF MONEY. DOWNLOADED AND DELETED IN AN HOUR .

5/10 The classic collection was much better, if you choosing between the version, it's a no-brainer: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1246940/Encore_Classic_Casino_Games/ ^ it's a real deal, good quality game. But very dated. So about this "non-classic" version. It's an attempt to remake the old games. There are a bit of good thighs which can be said about this one: wide-screen support, and a modern bit depth (the classic sometimes looks like a gif from '00). Blackjack and roulette are fine. Not the biggest fan of the other games, so can't tell if there're some mistakes. The bad things. No slot machines. I know, I know, only rookies go to these in casinos. But in classic collection there were nice fruit machines, a missed opportunity... Or lazy people. Another missed opportunity is lack of multiplayer. At least local, through remote play would be fine. Seriously, to create a remastered version for modern hardware, but leave it a singleplayer casino game you can't play with friends... Especially when classic collection (and previous versions, which were called Hoyle Casino) had local multiplayer. You can click on NPC and select "real person". But not in remake... Well, I've done my research before buying and knew what this is, so I'm not going to refund it, since I'm a long-term player of this series since '00 and it gives me nostalgic vietnam cashbacks. But for "normal" people, and at this price, without sales so far - I would say don't bother. It was hard to decide between positive/negative. Well, let it be positive, just because I'm a nice guy.

Reminds me of an old game I had but with a new paint job. Unfortunately after entering my name the cursor disappeared. It was still there, things would highlight when I was able to go over them. Was finally able to click yes to leave the game. Checked file integrity, it was ok. Uninstalled it, rebooted, then reinstalled it, same problem. So far a waste of money.

The game works, but whoever designed it has no idea about how a Craps table should be played or I can't figure out the game. I can't place odds on my line bets, and it looks like it doesn't pay the correct odds on the place bets. Also, it's too slow at craps.

Good way to pass the time - I love card games, however, the banter gets old (even with talking reduced to 0) and some of the play is too slow with too many clicks. Also, in 7 stud, it's 3 people play. All the time, every single time. Never do 5, 6 or all 7 people stay in. It's clockwork - if the first four fold, then you know the last three are in. Finally, despite all that, I was going to give a good review until playing 7-stud today. I folded, having only a pair of kings. AI player won with a 3 of a kind of Kings. Yeah.
