“The graphics and sound are nice enough, if only functional but the game lacks variety.”
— Mean Machines, May 1992

“Casino is a gambling game which offers three basic things to choose from: cards, slot machine and pin¬ ball. The graphics and sound are nice enough, if only functional, but the game lacks variety. There's no roulette or dice to help spice things up and you'll soon find yourself wanting more for your money.”
— Mean Machines Sega, December 1992

“This shouid help solve your addiction to one arm bandits in five minutes. After playing all of the Las Vegas-based games, you’ll be sick of the sight of them for good.”
