Lock Casino Review

$2,500 Bonus

Visit Casino | Download Casino

A sleek, black website welcomes you to Lock Casino, and the modern feel doesn’t stop there. Everything at Lock feels more ‘interactive’ than at most online casinos (most of whom haven’t changed their approach since the 20th Century). With “The Future of Casino”, Lock Casino may have given us the best Engrish since “A Winner is You.”

Top 5 Reasons to Play

1. The Only Fully Mac-Compatible Casino!

2. US Players Always Welcome

3. Friendly, Professional 24/7 Support

4. Sleek, High-Tech, 21st Century Casino

5. Wide Variety of Quality Online Casino Games

Gameplay

We’re justifiably excited by a Mac-specific download casino. Sure, several online casinos have had a Flash or Java-based Instant Play feature for some time, but that almost always meant fewer games and lower graphics resolution. With Lock casino, Mac users can finally experience the full range of RTG’s games. Great table games, perfectly-adapted video poker, and of course many incredible fruit machines, video slots, and progressive jackpots.

Software and Graphics

As we’ve said, Lock Casino is slick. Much more of the interface is online, giving Instant Play fans a far more flexible approach to playing games and taking care of the details (account transactions, support, etc.). However, the full package can be downloaded — for Mac as well as PC, which is a long-awaited first in the industry!

Game Variety

Lock Casino definitely covers the spectrum of online casino games. The most obvious category is slots, which themselves cover a wide range: classic fruit machines, familiar five-reels, modern video slots, and progressives. RTG’s signature line is the “Real Series”, which marry a great jackpot feature with some exceptional multimedia elements and fascinating themes.
Video Poker players have many reasons to be happy — up to 100 reasons, the same as the multi-hand options on over a dozen of the Video Poker machines (classic such as Jacks or Better, Decues Wild, and many more).

Bonuses

The $2,500 Welcome Bonus matches 100% (up to $500) of your first five deposits (or, as the website says “Get 100% match on up to 5x deposits”). There is also a one-time 400% Slots Bonus, for a total of $2,000.
Blackjack fans should pursue VIP status to qualify for the VIP Blackjack Bonus, which offers a 200% deposit match, up to $1,500.
More bonuses are offered daily at Lock Casino, so players will have a chance to get a bonus somewhere between 50% and 150% any day of the week!

Wagering Requirements

The Welcome Bonus carries a 25x playthrough, fulfilled by playing any slots, keno, scratch, and/or Bonus Bingo. The Slots Bonus has the same playthrough but for slots only. The VIP Blackjack Bonus carries a 50x playthrough, achieved via any of the “21″ games (Blackjack, Pontoon, Perfect Pair, etc.).

Payout Percentage

The Lock Casino has only been operating for a short time, so no full payout percentages have been posted. However, we’ve verified the TST (Technical Services Testing) Certification and will be looking forward to publishing the results as soon as possible. All RTG casinos tend to perform in the same range, so you can expect 92% – 99% payout percentages!

Customer Service

Lock Casino seems to be moving away from the toll-free telephone support that many online casinos use, focusing instead on the Live Chat and email options. Either one may be accessed any time of day, and the FAQ options are also quite helpful. We’ve heard only great things about Lock’s support, with a number of very satisfied reports — our own experience with the Live Chat personnel has been exceptional.

Conclusion

We haven’t been this excited about a new online casino in some time. Lock Casino is designed to be a 21st Century casino, but has also used many tried-and-true elements to make the veteran online gamer feel right at home. Great bonuses (new casinos always have the biggest promotions!), outstanding customer service, and loads of RTG’s games add up to an online casino that players new and old should investigate as soon as possible.
