The small British studio behind the chandeliers

Royalreelroom began with a question we kept asking each other: why should the glamour of a great casino come with a bill attached? We love the theatre of it all — the gilt, the velvet, the hush before the dealer turns a card — so we set out to build a casino floor where all of that is free and nothing can cost you a penny.

Every game here is our own code. We wrote the reel maths for three video slots and measured each model over 20,000,000 simulated spins. We built a six-deck blackjack shoe, a single-zero roulette wheel with a ball that spirals and settles, and a full-pay video poker cabinet. Our raccoon croupier, Monty, wandered in with a top hat and a gold chip and has been running the floor ever since.

We are based in Britain, and we design for real evenings: a few spins on the sofa, an hour of blackjack practice, a quick round of poker on a phone.

Above all we are serious about the play-money promise. Coins are free and stay free. They cannot be bought, sold or cashed out, and there are no prizes. The site is for adults aged 18 and over, and our responsible play tools are always one click away.
