Game Speed (9)

With roulette, you pretty much play at your own pace in terms of deciding which bets to place on the table. So you are pretty much in control of the game speed as it is. The speed of the wheel spinning does not really impact your play. However, you have the "Quick Spin" option in which you don't have to wait for the wheel to spin 'round and 'round, but instead get the result within seconds. Some people are too impatient to wait, and French Roulette from Microgaming is able to accommodate those folks.

Game Features (9)

There is a chart at the left side of the interface that allows you to track each and every spin of the wheel, in case you are one of those people who strategizes that previous spins of the wheel impact future spins. This particular chart, which is digital over a black background, keeps the odd numbers on the left side and the even numbers on the right, so you have the convenience of seeing that as well. There is a "Call Bet" feature which allows you to pull up all the different kinds of bets by name (They are in French) and designate the amount of money you want to place on each of them. The bets will then be automatically placed on the table.
