Virtual City Casino operates under licensing from Kahnawake Gaming Commission, which is one of the earliest and most reputed licencors in the online gaming circuit. Therefore I expected the highest level of gaming experience from this casino and I have not been let down. Its futuristic lobby is a change from the usual classical look and promises greater things in the future.

In keeping with its futuristic approach, Virtual City Casino has gone for the Viper software from Microgaming, which is absolutely the latest in the business. The software provides great special effects, quick gaming and excellent player statistics, the three things I consider the basis of good gaming. The best thing about the software is that it seamlessly integrates all aspects of casino operations and allows for additions of new games without making cumbersome changes.

The latest games from the Microgaming stable are on offer at Virtual City Casino. These games are innovative and I find them a refreshing change from the standard games. For example, multi hand Spanish blackjack is played with eight decks of 48 cards each. The tens are removed from the decks. The video slots are of the best quality at Virtual City Casino. Dolphin Tale is a new game that has 40 paylines. It has a wild symbol and a scatter symbol that is almost mandatory in the newer slots. However for me, the best feature of the game is the 'Usual Seaspects Bonus'. Players can choose from a number of free spins once this bonus is activated. But the higher the number of spins, the lower the multiplier, and this is what makes the choice so exciting.

I have not come across another casino that gives a sign up bonus without a deposit being made. At Virtual City Casino, once the player downloads the software, registers as a real player and registers a credit card, $10 is transferred to his account. Then, when the player makes a deposit of $100, he gets another $40 transferred to his account. This is not the only promotional scheme at Virtual City Casino. The Refer a Friend scheme is also exceptional. The bonus depends not only on how many friends the player refers, but also on how much they wager. The more they wager, the larger the bonus for the player. And the icing on the cake as far as the promotions are concerned is the Casino Rewards Loyalty Program.

I rate security as one of the most important aspects of a casino's operations. And in the security category, I include financial security, fair gaming, responsible gaming and privacy. On all four counts I find Virtual City Casino extremely satisfactory. The casino employs time tested banking methods that are made absolutely secure through 128 bit encryption technology. The fairness of the games, including the random number generator, are certified by the reputed agency eCOGRA and its monthly report put up for all to see. The Responsible Gambling section is one of the best I have come across. It clearly lists the symptoms of addictive gambling and specifies the remedial measures. For severe cases, the casino directs the player to professional help.

Virtual City Casino has an excellent customer support staff. I have found the staff to be quick, courteous and knowledgeable. Support is available over phone, via email and in the comprehensive FAQs section.
