Manekichi Review

Introduction

Japanese culture is very rich and interesting but in recent years, one of the globally most recognizable symbols of this country has been Maneki cat. With its left paw raised in the sign of greeting, it is believed these cats are bearers of good luck. As such, you can find them in many restaurants and other types of facilities across this island-country.

AND…

…one of them will greet you when you enter Manekichi Casino. The primary focus of this establishment is to facilitate the needs of Japanese players by supplying them and the rest of its clients with a wide-ranging collection of releases from the leading software providers in the industry. There is also a loyalty club with a variety of perks as a reward for the most frequent punters. However, although the Promotions section does exist on the site, it was empty at the moment this review was taking place.

In terms of design…

…the venue features a modern look with a straightforward layout which leaves no space for confusion during the navigating process. The bright color scheme creates this upbeat vibe many users will find appealing. In the menu on the left side of the screen, you will find a language bar, chat connecting you to customer service representatives, info about the brand, shortcuts to the gaming lobby and loyalty program as well as the registration button. 

Creating an account…

…is a simple and pretty standard procedure consisting of 3 steps. Overall, it shouldn’t take longer than a couple of minutes before you’re set and ready to gamble.

The operator offers also a set of tools to better plan and control your betting habits. You can set deposit limits before you even start wagering and they can regulate the sums you deposit on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. this will help you stick to your playing budget. You can also activate a Cooling-off option for an indefinite time period and if you think your behavior has become problematic, there is also a Self-Exclusion option.

Tip: Additional verification procedures will be done when the cumulative withdrawals exceed €2,000.

Games

In the gaming lobby, you will find the selection of high-quality titles. The operator partnered up with some of the best studios in the industry to bring its clients the first-class experience by giving them access to some of the iconic releases as well as those that have just hit the market. With reputable names such as Yggdrasil and Microgaming, we doubt any punter will be disappointed by the venue's portfolio.

Among the standard titles…

…the biggest part of the library is dedicated to video slots. With different complexity levels, various themes, grid-types, and a number of pay lines, these modern fruit machines will fit the needs of both novice and experienced players. The Table Games menu is not too extensive but it does offer a couple of variations on blackjack, roulette, and baccarat. Before placing a bet on any of them, you are given the opportunity to play in Fun mode and make sure certain gameplay is to your taste or not.

In the Live section…

…which is powered by Evolution Gaming, professional and friendly dealers will recreate a thrilling atmosphere of the land-based establishments in your own home. You can interact not only with them but with other players seating at your table as well. Besides the live editions of blackjack, roulette, poker, and baccarat, you can also take part in live renditions of Lightening Roulette and Lightning Dice, Monopoly, Dream Catcher, and Deal or No Deal.
