32Red Mobile

The vast majority of mobile casino’s and poker rooms are owned and operated by well established online gaming companies. Of these online gaming companies one of the very best, in my opinion and many others in the industry, is 32Red. They have consistently been at the cutting edge of new emerging technologies and always strived to produce a good selection of online games and crucially, made sure that their platforms are extremely secure and reliable which is very important to all users. With their mobile casino 32Red have taken all their expertise and knowledge from online gaming and produced a really fantastic mobile casino. I will go into further details of the mobile casino later in this review but suffice to say that I rank 32Red mobile as one of the very best in the market today.

Installation

Perhaps the best way to review this mobile casino is to guide you through the installation process so that you can get an impression of the ease with which you can get up and running and have some fun at the casino. As with most mobile casinos there are a variety of ways to install the mobile gaming app, the one I usually choose is to visit the actual website. The reason for this is that I like to get a feel for the site before I download and start playing in their casino. 32Red has always had a very distinctive and fresh feel to their gaming sites, right from the early days when they burst onto the market, and on the http://www.32redmobile.com/ website you get a very good overview of what they offer and also how to get started.

In brief these are the simple steps needed to get up and running with 32Red Mobile:

1. Click on the link to 32Red Mobile.
2. On the right hand side you’ll see a form where you need to select your mobile phone type, number etc.
3. Don’t worry about which game you select, after it’s downloaded to your phone you will easily be able to download whatever game you prefer.
4. The last step is to enter the security code and then click on Free Download.
5. You will then receive a text message(sms) with a link and instructions on how to download the mobile casino app.
6. Simply tap on the top link to go to the casino which will ask you to create a link to the mobile casino on your smartphones home page. On the iphone you might need to first click on the “send to” icon at the bottom from where you can select save to home screen.
7. Once this is done you should have a nice new icon on your smartphone which looks something similar to this (screenshot)
8. The last step in the installation which is very important is to remove any content restrictions on your phone. This can either be on the phone itself, on the iphone it is under restrictions under general settings, or set on your account by the mobile phone provider. If you experience any difficulties with games not loading properly then this will certainly be the cause but it’s easy to fix if you just call your mobile phone support line.

Games and Features of the Casino

Ok so that’s the installation of the game covered and I hope you agree with me that it was fairly straight forward and easy, now to the mobile casino itself. When you click on the newly installed 32Red icon on your smartphone the casino interface will open in a kind of minimised browser, which is the format most mobile casinos use due to ease of use and security:

In this initial menu you get a very clear overview of the games available and it’s a very nice interface and clear interface at 32 Red Mobile. You have a choice of Blackjack, Slots, Progressives, Roulette, Virtual Racing, Video Poker, Bingo and Instant Win games so pretty much something for everybody. I have to be honest and say that I’m a bit disappointed that there isn’t a greater number of games but with that being said it is fairly clear that 32Red have focussed on quality rather than quantity and after all how many different types of Blackjack do you really need!

After you select a game by touching it the following screen opens up asking you to either register an account, login to an existing account or try the game for free by practising with the Demo. We always recommend that you try the games for free at any mobile casino before signing up and 32Red will give you a nice bit of play money for you to do just that so on the below example you would for example click on Blackjack Demo:

As mentioned earlier the number of games at 32Red is not vast but they cater for all the genres and what they have are great quality. This is hopefully demonstrated by the  following screenshots of TombRaider Slots, European Roulette and Blackjack:

All the games utilise the touchscreen of the smartphones to good effect and are very intuitive to play and are very responsive and quick. During the course of this review I spent a lot of time on these games and was really impressed with them in terms of their stability, ease of use and how easy it was to move from game to game and even place fairly complex bets. Another big  selling point for me is how fun they were to play with really nice graphics and sound, compared to other mobile casinos.

Bonuses and promotions

I have written a lot about bonuses in the past and very often it is a case of having to read the fine print as many new users get very excited thinking they are going to get lots of free money without realising that the casinos put very strict rules in place to prevent that. The best way to judge bonuses is whether or not they will help you to get started with your mobile casino experience and with 32Red’s  100% welcome bonus up to ￡50/€50/$50 that’s certainly the case. Put simply if you deposit $50 with them then they’ll match it so that your starting balance is $100 rather than $50. With $100 it is much easier to win a nice amount of money than it is with just $50, so just think of the extra $50 as free money to gamble with and if you do manage to meet the casino’s conditions then you win that extra $50 as well but if you lose it then it wasn’t yours anyway.

32Red Mobile have many other great promotions besides their initial welcome bonus but since they tend to change quite frequently I would recommend that you visit their website for the very latest details, but at the time of writing this review they had a ￡32 matched deposit bonus  and free chip Fridays where lucky players get chosen at random to receive between 5 and 500 chips.

In recent times there has been much talk about responsible gambling and 32Red, as one of the more established online casino operators, have always backed good initiates such as GamCare, who help people addicted to gambling, and thay are also signed up to eCogra which is a regulatory body for online gaming. I always see things like this as a huge plus with any online gaming operator and it personally makes me feel more inclined to play at one casino rather than another.

Verdict

I hope I have indicated the ease with which you can install and start playing at 32Red Mobile and why I’ve always respected them as an online, and now mobile, casino operator. They have a wealth of experience built up over many years, have exciting plans for the future and I can assure you that you will not regret trying them out, it is after all a completely free trial so enjoy it and please remember to always gamble responsibly.
