Jaak Casino sister sites

Our original reviews of the former Jaak sister sites

Historical note: the detailed judgements below were written while these casinos were accessible. They are preserved because they explain the genuine differences between the old skins, but their promotions, support routes and game catalogues are not current.

In a sea of near-identical casino sites, Casiplay is a breath of fresh air. The homepage of this casino uses video content to enhance its appeal. Granted, it’s a very short casino, and it plays in a loop, but it’s still an eye-catching way of presenting this member of the Jaak Casino sister sites family. Aside from being a solid choice for anyone looking to play slots or live casino games, Casiplay is noteworthy for its detailed, structured welcome promotion. Rather than sticking everything on first deposits, Casiplay provides rewards for each of the first four deposits a new player makes at the casino site. That’s sure to make new players feel welcome and further ensures that those players are likely to stick around for a while. You’ll even find a few games featured on the homepage of Casiplay that aren’t spotlighted on other casinos on the network.

Why does Chilli Spins have a boring grey background? It might sound like a trivial thing to get annoyed with – and perhaps it is – but Chilli Spins is a casino with a Mexican theme. It is, in fact, the only one of the Jaak Casino sister sites to use the theme. We all know what to expect from Mexican-themed casinos by now; bright colours, vibrancy, and a strong sense of fun. Decking the site out in grey achieves the opposite of that. The problems with Chilli Spins don’t stop there, either. One hundred free spins as a welcome promotion might sound like a nice reward, but only until you realise that the offer isn’t accompanied by any matched deposit funds. Weak on promotions and weak on presentation, Chilli Spins falls a long way short of the standards set by the best AG Communications Limited casinos.

You’ll have seen Neptune before, even if you aren’t familiar with his name. He’s the guy with the trident who lives under the sea. To be more precise, he’s the Roman god of seas and waters. There’s no obvious connection between playing at casinos and being underwater, so it’s a wonder that Neptune has inspired as many online casinos as he has. The presence of the ancient deity isn’t the only odd thing about Neptune Play, though; this is one of only two Jaak Casino sister sites that AG Communications Limited has full control of. The rest are all operated on a white-label basis, which means at least one third party gets a say in what the casino looks like and what it offers. However, none of this makes Neptune Play an especially great casino. It’s a fairly generic iGaming site, and its recent shift from pounds to Euros as a default currency makes us think it may soon be withdrawn from the UK market.

Slots N Play (sometimes simplified to the even less grammatically pleasing “Slotsnplay”) is notable for two things. The first of them is annoying anybody who appreciates the correct application of spelling and grammar. The second is taking the bizarre step of handing over all the premium real estate on its homepage to just one slots game – Gonzo’s Quest Megaways. We won’t deny that the Gonzo’s Quest games are extremely popular. They’re the biggest hits NetEnt has ever had apart from Starburst. We don’t think they’re popular enough to be featured as strongly as the Megaways version of the game is at Slots N Play, though – especially when you can find the same Gonzo’s Quest game (and the original and other sequels) at pretty much any of the other Jaak Casino sister sites. Slots N Play has looked like this for a long time, though, so we assume players must enjoy it.

Spin Rio is easily one of the best-looking Jaak Casino sister sites. You should be able to pick up from the name that this casino is one of dozens that are inspired or influenced by the sights and sounds of Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, but Rio has rarely looked as good as it does in the background of the Spin Rio homepage. To complete the look, the casino also has a gorgeous toucan mascot. If we rated casinos purely on aesthetics, Spin Rio would be one of the top AG Communications casinos. It’s still in the top half thanks to its excellent range of games and its strong welcome promotion, but it loses a lot of points by offering email-only customer support. When even the most basic casinos on this platform can offer live chat as a primary means of assisting customers, Spin Rio has no excuse.

You don’t have to go back in time too many years to find a time when MillionPot was thought of as one of the best Jaak Casino sister sites. Quite a lot of players still play here, labouring under that misapprehension. Unfortunately for MillionPot, the past couple of years haven’t been kind to it. Changes have been made to the casino’s content, but the changes aren’t reflected in the banners that still scroll by on the MillionPot homepage. One of those banners proudly proclaims that MillionPot has a monthly cashback offer plus free spins allocations for every player every Sunday. That would indeed be worth crowing about if it were true, but those promotions no longer exist at MillionPot. That technically makes MillionPot guilty of false advertising, which is never a good look for an online casino. The total number of games listed on the homepage (900) is out of date, too.

Regent Play is a lot like Spin Rio. That means it has a lot of the same strengths but also a lot of the same weaknesses. In terms of aesthetic quality, for example, this is another one of the very best Jaak Casino sisters sites. Regent Street in London doesn’t for quite as pretty a picture as Rio de Janeiro, but it still looks stunning and does its job of drawing attention to the Regent Play £200 matched deposit welcome promotion effectively. Another thing that Regent Play has in common with Spin Rio is its expanded gaming portfolio, which includes scratch cards and live casino games. Sadly, the third thing the two casinos have in common is their shoddy standard of customer support, which is only available via email at both sites. If a casino as weak as MillionPot can provide live chat support to paying customers, Regent Play should be doing it as a minimum standard of service.
