This online casino has good sound and graphics, which can be optimised to suit the user. Players have access to a 24 hour FREE telephone helpline. Deposits are made through an Ecash account, which you create automatically when you register for real money play. Ecash is easy to use, and the withdrawal screen clearly shows the amount available for withdrawal, important as bonuses, or winnings generated from them, cannot be withdrawn until any stated wager requirements have been made (you may withdraw you deposit at any time, but will most likely be excluded from further bonuses if you do this as a means of avoiding playing your own money). The match bonus is only available to UK and Irish customers on the £sterling site. A poker room is also available, only in US$ though, as most are.

FRUIT MACHINES ON THE INTERNET
Cryptologic, the software provider for Intercasino, launched the first 'proper' UK Motorway Service Station fruit machines on the internet that can be played for real money. Fruit-emu have had fruit machines for fun for ages (and the fruit-emu ones are better, as they are the classic games we all remember). Intercasino has the two machines Fruit Fight and Super Sideshow. They are really clones of each other, not different games. They behave just as today's machines do in real life! (This is a criticism, not a compliment!!). Features are as follows
 |
Fruit Fight Super Sideshow Marvel superhero based fruit machine now being launched! |
| Holds | Features Holds - third hold does not necessarily give the win though. Where behaviour deviates from real life, it is for the worse. |
| Nudges | Nudges are awarded at random, you cannot peer round the reels though! |
| Hi/Lo gambles | Exactly as in real life, gives 1 off 2, and 12 off 11, if anything worthwhile is there. |
| Early death | Kills on first spin of super board regularly, or will give many spins that land on nothing useful. |
| Extra Life | Given, and taken in next spin or two, will often die the spin after the extra life is taken |
| Shitty Features | Present and correct. All except top can be terrible, just as in real life nowdays. Bottom feature can even give nothing, only Reds do this from board entry in real life. |
| Percentage | Actually in the 90%-95% area, but a fair bit of this is paid out in the £500 JP (25p play) or £2000 JP (£1 play). |
| Emptier | None that I know of, software is NOT written by Barcrest! |
| Hopper | This runs from a virtual hopper containing at least £1,000,000 (shared with all the other casino slots). Hopper will be refilled if necessary, although you might be asked for photo ID if you win this much! |
| Faults | I have known of one machine fault. The machine locked up and took 5 mins to execute each spin. A tournament had to be cancelled as the engineer did not have the parts needed to fix it in time. It is fixed now! |
