Game Night
Online casinos are popular all across Europe. People from all kinds of backgrounds and interests are joining to become gamblers with others focusing only on slots, some tuning into live casinos, and many starting their journey in the interesting world of betting. But can gambling be a social event, or should everyone enjoy casino games on their own? We say it’s social and in this post, we will also prove it. You’ll learn the best tricks for a successful game night, alongside some awesome and easy snacks to make your guests love every single minute!
Select a Theme
First things first: when you are organizing an online casino game night, choose a clear theme for it. Let’s say you are a Finnish group of players. The topic of your night could be rahapelit, which means in English simply casino games online. That’s a great topic and a theme, but can it be that it is a bit too wide of a topic? Could you maybe narrow it down a bit?
Let’s think of creating an online casino game night with targeting slots. Nowadays there are thousands and thousands of different styled slot machines online, which means that you are able to choose many games according to their themes. The game night could for instance be about Viking-themed slots. If this is what you would go with, selecting the game would be super easy. You could for instance pick games that you all play together, such as
- Vikings Go Berzerk
- Vikings Go Wild
- Vikings Go To Hell
Or maybe you and your friends like live casinos more. There are nowadays hundreds of live casino games, and for a game night, the ideal ones are the game show typed products. These are for example Deal or No Deal Live, Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt, and Monopoly Live.
Prepare Snacks That Go Perfectly With the Theme
If you were to pick a Viking theme, you could plan the easy snacks for a game night by looking at history books and documentaries. What did the Vikings eat? There was plenty of meat for sure, so maybe you could create a platter of different sausages. Some craft beer would make a great companion to those!
If, however, you decide to go with a live casino theme, the snack plate can look a lot different. There are basically no limits here on what to choose as snacks. On the other hand, if you want to bring that certain luxury element of old-fashioned casinos straight into your living room, why not create snacks with some extra? Maybe a platter with shrimps, olives, cheese, and quality wine? To top things up, mix some drinks such as martinis (shaken, not stirred). This will set the mood for sure!
Have Guests Vote and Try New Things
If you don’t want to be completely in charge of the theme of your game night, one option is to have a vote between all participants. This you can do either in advance in Whatsapp or other easy messaging apps, or make things more interesting and leave the vote to the game night itself. This of course makes it harder to fit the snacks according to the theme, but it doesn’t have to become a problem.
Once the games and the theme is decided, you can all agree to buy and/or prepare suitable snacks and participate in the night’s execution in that way.
Do You Need Music?
Something that a game night does not necessarily require is music. Nowadays the majority of all new slot machines have a great soundtrack that can be one great addition to the entertainment factors. Live casino games come with a live host, so you might want to hear what’s going on. In that sense, music is not that important.
On the other hand, if you want to maximize for instance a Viking-themed casino game night, maybe turn on Netflix and start watching the hit series Vikings at the same time!
Play Responsibly
No matter the theme you select, it’s important to remember that not all rounds in casino games will end up in a victory. Losing is as big a part of gambling as is winning. This means that you should always be very careful with the money you are investing in this sort of entertainment. How will you make sure that everything happens according to your budget?
Easy. Before you start to even plan a casino game night, you should get a clear sense of your budget. Use an Excel sheet or some other similar solution, create a realistic report on your budget and play according to it. Never play with money that you cannot afford to lose. This is the most important advice that you’ll ever hear and you should pass it on also to all your casino game night guests.
What About the Budget?
Organizing a casino game night can be either expensive or very cheap, or something in the middle. This all depends on how much food and drinks you are about to offer, how many people you have invited, and how much money you all are about to gamble. In the cheapest option all game night guests will chip in, not only to the gambling but also to the snacks and drinks.
Best Things About A Casino Game Night
What are the best things about this type of event? First of all, you get to meet your closest friends and have fun with them. You will also have a chance to try out new game types, such as live casinos, slots, and betting. Also, you and your friends can combine your budgets and play with a bigger amount of money at once: this might lead to bigger winnings, too.
What our team here loves most about casino game nights is the easiness of organizing this type of event and the fact that there are numerous possibilities. Every game night can be totally different from another, which makes things very interesting!
