Hard Rock Casino Critic Reviews

This is a great time-killer – the kind of game you can pick up and enjoy for 30 seconds without feeling the need to make a 10 or 20-minute commitment.

Hard Rock Casino shouldn't be a terrible game, but it is.

Mixing a ton of casino games into one package and then tying a goal-based story around it certainly works on paper, but when you use low-budget implementations of each and every game to put it together, the whole thing falls apart.

A game like Hard Rock Casino can provide all the virtual casino action it likes but it's never going to provide the same thrills and spills that a simple pack of cards, bag full of coppers, crate of beer and a few good friends can do.

Too many games that involve no skill.

In summary, I just can't recommend this because it has virtually no purpose and is horribly tedious - it says a lot that Sam Fox Strip Poker on the ZX Spectrum from 1986 actually had more of a point to playing it, even if that point was just to see an awful, monochrome drawing of a pair of oversized norks.

Quantity over quality, this suite of gambling games fails to capture the thrill of throwing all your money away on the single spin of a wheel.

It's an exercise in frustration and annoyance, and the payoffs aren't worth it - nothing you unlock makes this game any fun.
