What is Penny Roulette?

Penny Roulette is a single zero European Roulette variant from Playtech that was launched in February 2017. With a very low minimum bet and an RTP of 97.3%, this is a game that is great for those who like a flutter on the wheel.

Intro

Playtech’s Penny Roulette is that rare thing: a game of high quality that comes with a very affordable price tag. And, what’s more, this game comes with a whole range of special settings, bets and custom options.

The visuals are up there with Switch Studios roulette, and then there’s the whole penny bet angle!

Low Table Limits for Low-Risk Bets

Penny Roulette is a game that is a great introduction to the wheel for those players who want to build time on the tables without breaking the bank.

As the name suggests, this is a game where the bet levels remain modest. Playtech are known for their dealer games as well of course (such as Live Quantum Roulette), but it is their virtual roulette games that they are most famous for.

Penny Roulette Look and Feel

Despite the name, Playtech has thrown some budget at this game: this online roulette looks the business.

The game’s default orientation is a view looking diagonally across the wooden roulette wheel and traditional green baize bet table. It is simple to navigate and easy on the eye.

Pros and Cons

---

Playtech- those people behind games like Superman Roulette– have gone the extra mile in developing a game packed full of personalisation options so that you can tailor the game to suit your play.

If you don’t like the standard diagonal view you can switch things around and play on a split-screen view instead with the bet table on the lower half of the screen and the roulette wheel at the top.

Customised Play

The attention to detail in Penny Roulette means that you can choose a blue or red baize if green isn’t your style. You can even go as far as to choose the direction the wheel is spun. That won’t alter your odds on the wheel of course, but it’s a nice touch.

The design cleverly makes for a realistic and immersive feel to the game. While you play there are realistic sounds of the ball spinning around the wheel and falling into a pocket – hopefully yours!

The croupier makes announcements in a cut-glass English accent that will help the newbies, and it all adds a bit of that land-based casino atmosphere to the game.

Penny Roulette Game Play

Penny Roulette looks tip-top, whether it’s played on your PC or your mobile device. The mobile version of the game comes with a Turbo Mode if you want to speed things up.

Penny Roulette is a single zero European roulette game: so one with pockets numbered 1-36, plus a single zero and which has the lower house edge of 2.7% (compared to double zero wheels).

Clear Betting Layout

The table is well laid out for you to place your bets. Place inside bets and outside bets like odds and evens, split and street bets and so on by clicking on the bet areas. A chip the size of your selected bet level will show on the table.

There is also a racetrack betting area for those roulette fans who want to cover larger sections of the roulette wheel, using the Orphelins and Voisins du Zero, for example. You can select from between 1 and 5 neighbours on any number you choose. To get into the racetrack, just click on the racetrack icon.

You just need to select your chip size, remembering that in this game they start low. You can place a penny (or cent) wager if you’re starting small but you can also ramp things up if you like. Table limits vary by casino.

When you hit the Spin button, the wheel will spin and the ball will travel around before finally coming to a rest in a pocket. You’ll see a close-up of the winning number and in one click you can double your bet (handy for Martingale players), rebet or spin again.

There are three handy buttons on the lower right of your screen where you can save your favourite bets. You will also have access to some good statistics: just click the Stats icon. There’s another icon where you can make other kinds of bets.

Auto-Play

If you hold down on the Spin button you can program up to 99 spins into the game. This is a really quick way of betting the same pattern quickly if you are playing systems for example.

But careful! It’s also a way of getting through your bankroll in no time, particularly if you are in turbo mode, so use this feature cautiously. You can stop the Autoplay at any time by clicking on the button again.

Summary

Penny Roulette is a well-designed online roulette game with an RTP of 97.3%. Low minimum bet levels, high-end styling and enough betting options (without going too crazy) make this a very attractive roulette game online and on your mobile.
