Pots Of Luck Review
There’s something that most online casino players are aware of, especially those with a decent amount of experience in the industry, and that is this:
If you’ve seen one Nektan casino, you’ve seen every Nektan casino.
Nektan is a brand that holds a lot of weight in the online casino market, their sites have a reputation for being trustworthy and reliable, and if there was only a few of them, which all took the online casino concept in a different direction, this would probably be the most popular name in the entire iGaming industry.
Unfortunately, similarly to a host of other networks, Nektan has instead chosen to release as many different sites as it can, while putting the least amount of effort in possible, resulting in a smorgasbord of nigh on identical sites that it’s impossible to get overly excited about.
Pots of Luck is another one of these sites, which has the unfortunate double whammy of not only being essentially a clone of a myriad of other Nektan sites, but also utilises the concept of Irish luck, which is a theme so overused in the online casino world that it’s almost embarrassing to see another site with it at this point.
The result of these two facts is that Pots of Luck has a truly sever uphill struggle ahead of itself, first it must prove itself as the best Nektan site, then the best Irish themed site, then, eventually, it can try and make its mark on the immensely competitive industry as a whole, it’s going to take a lot of luck for that to happen, more than a few pots.
Design and theme
If you’ve ever seen a Nektan casino, you know the layout here, simple navigation, different sized thumbnails allowing access to popular games, and a banner that scrolls through the available promotions, combined with artwork from popular games.
Then you have the design of the site itself, which has the image of a small, bearded, redheaded leprechaun, because being original simply isn’t something that has been bo0thered about here. The colour scheme is green and gold, obviously, while the majority of the site is white. But not white in the way that it looks like a carefully chosen part of the colour scheme, more the kind of white that looks like someone simply forgot to colour it in, and then nobody bothered to rectify the problem afterwards.
Even for a Nektan site, Pots of Gold looks boring, really boring.
Games
The games would have to do a lot to make up for the failures of the rest of the Pots of Gold site, but obviously that doesn’t happen here, instead you just get the same list of games that you’ll find at almost every other Nektan casino.
The collection isn’t bad, with titles coming from a range of quality software developers including Big Time Gaming, Blueprint Gaming, Extreme Live Gaming, Felt, Gamevy, IGT, Microgaming, Nektan, NetEnt, NextGen Gaming, NYX Gaming, Realistic Games, SG Gaming, and Williams Interactive, and if Pots of Gold was a standalone site, we’d probably have a heap of positives to say about it.
But Pots of Gold does not stand alone, it stands next to a host of sites that look almost the same, and have pretty much the same games on offer, meaning that the only thing that sets this site apart from any of its network brethren is its design concept, which is terrible both in idea and in execution.
Nektan sites are fine, and if you want to play at one, you will probably be entertained, but don’t make it this one.
