Skykings Casino

Skykings Casino (SkykingsCasino.com) has unfortunately been blacklisted in the industry, which leaves us needing to heavily warn our readers about the reasons this has happened.  The casino is associated with the cPays group, who have a bad reputation for acting extremely unethical.  They have been accused of refusing player payouts for various “technical” reasons, as well as treating its business and advertising partners disrespectfully.  We hate to see this as the software is Playtech, the bonuses look great and the site is well-organized, so we will go ahead and review the positive aspects, but keep this warning in mind should you decide to commit your money here.

Skykings Casino is powered by Playtech software, well-known in the industry as one of the software engineers.  Those who started playing years ago probably remember Playtech when they were still learning, but those days are long over, and perfect graphics and sound can now be expected.  An instant play version is also available for Mac users or those who prefer not to download.

The casino has more than 60 games available, which is on the low side if you are used to hundreds of options.  That said, when there are too many games it’s hard to know where to begin and you might always feel you are missing out on something.  Sometimes less is more, and on Playtech software, we can safely say this.  All the favorites are here, such as Blackjack, Baccarat, Red Dog, American Roulette, European Roulette, Craps, Video Slots, Marvel Slots, Video Poker and the exciting Live Games of Blackjack, Roulette and Baccarat.

Skykings Casino offers two first deposit bonuses – for regular players and for high rollers.  A second deposit bonus follows, which is an equal amount regardless of player status.  There is also a bonus for using an alternative payment method to deposit, a refer-a-friend bonus and a Comp Points System.

There are of course wagering requirements and they appeared to be unclear to us, a fact that isn’t surprising given the already-mentioned information about the casino being blacklisted.  If you decide to take bonuses, get as clear as you can about what you are allowed to play and know you are taking a risk.  We recommend that if you choose to play here, you request to block your bonuses.

The support options here are just average, with one general email address provided and some phone numbers for different countries.  Live Chat is accessible only from the software, should you choose to download it.  There is also a FAQ section you may want to check out.  A general player complaint from players who did not receive payouts were that their inquiries were ignored by the casino.

We suppose we should not have been surprised with this, but there is no mention of the casino using the standard 128-bit encryption that nearly every site makes sure to mention.  The “Privacy and Security” page talks about everything except this.  As we have said throughout this review, play here at your own risk.
