How to play new roulette games

New roulette games keep the wheel and the standard bets and add something on top: random multipliers, extra balls or faster spins. The add-on is paid for somewhere, usually by a lower straight-up payout or a separate fee.

Read each game's help screen before you play. The payouts and RTP are listed there.

What stays the same

European wheels have 37 pockets (0 to 36) and a 2.70% edge on standard bets. Inside bets (straight, split, street, corner) and outside bets (red or black, odd or even, dozens, columns) work as on any table, and bets close when the dealer or timer says so.

Bankroll

  • Keep any side bets in a separate, smaller budget.
  • Remember that faster formats cost more per hour.

Questions

New roulette games: questions

Do multipliers affect the 35:1 payout?

Are multipliers truly random?

They are drawn by a tested random number generator.

What is the house edge on new roulette games?

Around 2.7% to 3% on most European-wheel variants; check the help screen.

Is a faster roulette game worse?

Per hour, it costs more at the same stake.

Responsible gaming

Play only if you are 18+ and it stays fun

These rules apply on every page of this site. A young casino has less history to judge it by, so the limits matter more.

18+ only

Adults only, everywhere

You must be 18 or older, and older in some countries. A casino can ask for ID before your first withdrawal, and new casinos often do.
