A no-frills casino collection that does its one job competently, and a cheap cart.

One review credited it with a straightforward, fun gambling experience, well-executed AI and good use of the analog stick, and praised its selection of games and its multiplayer mode, while calling the theme music nasty and faulting the lack of casino atmosphere.
