Roulette is one of the most glamorous land based casino games. The large wheel, the long tables and elegantly dressed players pushing their chip stacks have been immortalized in many movies. Despite several advantages offered by online gaming, it is not possible to replicate that glamour in online roulette. However Microgaming French Roulette offers several features that make the game more exciting.

At the outset Microgaming French Roulette offers the La Partage Rule. When zero is called, half of all even money bets are returned to the player. This significantly reduces the house edge. Because of this Microgaming French Roulette offers the highest average payout ratio of all forms of online roulette.

Microgaming French Roulette has visual and audio features that enhance the gaming experience. The layout on the screen appears in a 3D format, which is visually more exciting than the usual flat 2D format. There is a long view of the entire wheel spinning and a close up of the numbers that the ball rolls over as it comes to rest. This video of the ball rolling across the spinning wheel is accompanied by suitable audio. The dealer’s voices replicate the instructions given by the dealers in land casinos. All these features together help to create a realistic land casino ambience. One visual disadvantage of French Roulette is that all the numbers in the table layout are white in green background. Red and black colors are not differentiated. However Microgaming French Roulette uses the inherent advantages of computer software to provide some relief. As the cursor moves over the numbers in the layout a text message appears on the screen revealing the color of the numbers.

Call bets add a lot of excitement to roulette by providing a change from the layout based bets. Call bets are multiple chip bets, based on wheel layout or the units digit number, that require the chips to be placed in different locations on the layout. However Microgaming French Roulette makes this simpler. The player clicks the “Call” button and selects the required call bet from the drop down menu and the entire bet is automatically placed. Microgaming French Roulette offers a feature that allows players to save bets. The player can select up to eight layout based bets or call bets and save them. Then by clicking on the button of the appropriate number the bet is automatically placed.

Microgaming French Roulette also offers an auto play feature. This allows the player to repeat a given wager any number of times without manual intervention after each spin. Apart from being convenient this also speeds up the game. The auto play feature can be made to stop when a number of conditions are fulfilled, such as a specified amount of win or loss. Microgaming French Roulette offers a number of useful statistics. One of the most useful statistic computes the average time taken per spin of the wheel. This helps the player in managing his bankroll. If the player wants to play for one hour with a bankroll of $100 and from past statistics he knows that he can get 100 spins in an hour, then he can play with $1 wagers on each spin in order to meet his bankroll and time targets.

Microgaming French Roulette tries to replicate some of the excitement of the land based game and also exploits computer software technology to add innovative features. This online casino game can be played at all Microgaming online casinos like Platinum Play, All Slots, Spin Palace and River Belle.
