Captain Rizk keeps watch over the Rizk Casino, and he\u2019s got a lot to look after.<\/p>\n
Running on an independent platform and offering a modest 250+ games from numerous software providers, this instant play online casino hosts Slots, Jackpots, Live Games and more, and they do it with a few surprises up their sleeve. A Casino – cover your ears if you\u2019re easily offended – \u201cwithout the bullshit\u201d, as they have eloquently put it.<\/p>\n
Considering Rizk was only opened in 2016 it has done remarkably well, with awards already filling up Captain Rizk\u2019s trophy cabinet and a marketing gimmick that has proven popular with players. Not to mention the invention of The Wheel of Rizk and a few other nice little extra features.<\/p>\n
This is one for the player who doesn\u2019t take themselves too seriously, and who doesn\u2019t mind the occasional swear word; so read on to see if this caped crusader of a casino is for you.<\/p>\n
Rizk also have a sportsbook, which is unique in the fact that it is proprietary and designed by them for them.\u00a0 This is not something that is too common for casino-sportsbooks.\u00a0 It’s modular design is incredibly user friendly, especially in-play.<\/p>\n
The sportsbook was launched for the 2018 World Cup and was designed to shake up the sports betting landscape, it didn’t quite manage that but it is definitely a strong addition to a very good casino.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Microgaming<\/a> and NYX Gaming (Nextgen)<\/a> are the favourite providers at Rizk, but they have kept things varied by also including hits from NetEnt<\/a>, Play\u2019N Go<\/a>, Yggdrasil, IGT<\/a> and Red Tiger, among a few others. We say ‘hits’ because Rizk don’t accept middle of the road slots, they only include the very best each provider has to offer. All in all this adds up to around 250 slots which is a comparably small number if you have ever been on another casinos site, but this boutique approach guarantees no fat on the bone and still offers plenty of variety and choice.<\/p>\n The homepage displays only what you need to see, allowing you to get straight down to playing.\u00a0 Navigating the game roster is no trouble if you have a favourite provider as you can list them as such, otherwise your only options are A-Z, Jackpot, Table, and Race Games (Rizk Races, not racing themed \u2013 see below). Other categories are available but you have to scroll to find them; this needs work in order to be more user friendly. Never fear, though, as the customary search bar is also an option if you have an old favourite in mind, and drop downs provide further info on games you haven’t played but might be interested in which is a nice touch.<\/p>\n The site itself is well designed in terms of theme and tone, carrying a sense of carnival fun with a superhero comic twist. It\u2019s a shame that this isn\u2019t built upon further, as the theme sort of trickles out on most pages – unless you play the Wheel of Rizk which is great fun. We never thought we would be asking a casino for heavier graphics but they could actually enhance things here. Still, the calibre of the visuals when there is something to look at are top drawer, and Captain Rizk\u2019s voiceovers can\u2019t fail to make you smile.<\/p>\n Overall the site works well, loading times won\u2019t leave you frustrated, and there is just enough character to keep you interested. Navigation could do with a slight rethink at times but it is by no means troublesome.<\/p>\n Since Rizk did a decent job with the desktop site, we expected similar results from the mobile offering. Oddly, we thought the site was more impressive on a smaller screen.<\/p>\n The necessity to streamline the site to fit a mobile screen has forced a design change, and so the character that was sometimes lacking before is ever present here. The red branding and black background works a treat, although the game catalogue is severely reduced leaving around 150 left to play with.<\/p>\n The site isn\u2019t particularly graphic heavy, so loading times when opening games felt fine. The header and footer frame the content of the site beautifully, and are perfectly placed to manage your account and activity.<\/p>\n The menu button allows access to anything you can\u2019t already see, including Live Chat and the Sports section of the site and here\u2019s a tip: Captain Rizk\u2019s face down the bottom is a shortcut to your Rewards. We definitely didn\u2019t spend ages looking for that. Nope.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For bettors who take themselves and their sports betting seriously, Rizk is probably not going to cut the mustard. That’s not because there is anything wrong with it, it’s just not aimed at the more professionally minded bettors.<\/p>\n For anyone who bets semi regularly and also spends a lot of time playing casino games, though, it’s a pretty perfect solution.<\/p>\n There’s a decent selection of between 20-25 sports categories to bet on, and as well as covering everything you would expect to find at a bookie like Tennis competitions, Football going 3 leagues deep, Baseball, Basketball, Golf, etc. – you can actually bet on some interesting niche markets like esports and Futsal too. So yes it is a smaller book, but you wouldn’t say it was limited.<\/p>\n It isn’t the most user friendly sportsbook to navigate on desktop, probably because it has been designed for mobile first, but it follows a familiar top down flow when it comes to navigation; first selecting sport, then league\/competition, etc.<\/p>\n Conversely, the mobile book is really quite natty. It’s essentially the same design but it works in the hand much more effectively than it does using a keyboard and mouse or touchpad. Check out Rizk Insider for bonuses and promos.<\/p>\n\n
