Casino Games
The first group of games below is available across Canada: at AGCO Ontario casinos, at AGLC Alberta operators since the regulated market launched in July 2026, and at offshore casinos serving the rest of Canada. The second group is common but not universal, and each card shows where it is offered.
Available across all Canadian regions
The seven core categories.
Slots
Reel-based games with payouts driven by symbol combinations. Formats range from classic 3-reel games to 5-reel video slots and Megaways. Read the slots guide →
Live Dealer
Real humans dealing cards or spinning wheels, streamed in HD from purpose-built studios. Evolution and Pragmatic Play Live are two of the studios behind these tables. Read the live dealer guide →
Roulette
Spin the wheel, bet on where the ball lands. European Roulette (single zero) has the lowest house edge of the three wheels, 2.7%; the double-zero American wheel has 5.26%. Read the roulette guide →
Blackjack
21 against the dealer. With basic strategy and favourable rules, the house edge can be under 0.5% (0.28% with 8 decks, dealer standing on soft 17, double after split, resplit aces and late surrender, according to Wizard of Odds’ calculator). Available as RNG-driven tables (instant play) and as live dealer streams. Read the blackjack guide →
Baccarat
A card game with no player decisions: bet on Player, Banker, or Tie. House edge is low on Banker (1.06%) and Player (1.24%) bets; the Tie pays high but is a much worse bet (over 14% house edge). Popular as a live-dealer game. Read the baccarat guide →
Video Poker
A five-card draw game against a paytable, not against the dealer. Your hold decisions change the long-run return, but the paytable sets its ceiling: with optimal strategy, full-pay Jacks or Better (9/6) returns 99.54%, while the common 8/5, 7/5 and 6/5 tables return 97.30%, 96.15% and 95.00%.

Game Shows
Live-dealer entertainment-format games, money-wheels, dice, board-game wheels, hosted in studio with a live presenter. Crazy Time and Monopoly Live are two Evolution titles in this format. Read the game shows guide →
Available at most Canadian operators
Common but not universal. Some are regional; some are stronger at offshore casinos than at AGCO-registered Ontario operators. Each card notes where it shows up.
Bingo
Multi-room online bingo with 75-ball and 90-ball variants. Some provincial lottery platforms offer online bingo, with line-ups that differ by province. Read the bingo guide →
Keno
Pick up to 10 numbers from a 1-80 grid; 20 are drawn and the paytable sets what each number of matches pays. Available at provincial lottery products and most online casinos. Lottery keno usually returns less to players than casino table games; online keno RTP varies by title, so check the game’s info screen. Read the keno guide →
Crash games
A multiplier rises in real time and can crash at any moment; players cash out before it does. Aviator, Spaceman and JetX are three well-known titles. Spribe is registered with the AGCO as a gaming-related supplier, but crash titles are a smaller part of regulated lobbies than of offshore ones. Read the crash games guide →
Craps
Dice-table classic. Pass-line and don’t-pass bets carry a low house edge (1.41% and 1.36%, according to Wizard of Odds); the proposition bets in the middle of the table run far higher. Available as RNG craps and as live-dealer craps from Evolution. Read the craps guide →
Sic Bo
Three-dice Asian-origin betting game; players bet on individual numbers, combinations or totals. Mostly available in the live-dealer format from Evolution and Pragmatic Play Live; RNG versions sit in the table-games section at most casinos. Read the sic bo guide →
Scratch cards
Instant games modelled on the paper original. Quick rounds, fixed prize structures, no strategy. Provincial lotteries sell scratch tickets in Canada; online casinos also carry themed scratch games, usually in a side category. Read the scratch cards guide →
Reading the math
-
RTP is long-run, not short-run
A 96% RTP slot returns C$96 for every C$100 wagered, but only when averaged over millions of spins. In a single session your result can be far from that average. RTP doesn’t promise outcomes; it describes the game’s design.
-
Volatility shapes the feel
Two slots can have the same 96% RTP but very different experiences. Low-volatility slots pay small wins often; high-volatility slots pay rarely but with bigger bursts.
-
Table-game strategy matters
Blackjack and Video Poker have decisions that change the math. Playing without basic strategy can multiply the house edge several times over. The strategy charts are free online.
-
Live-dealer games are real-time
Unlike RNG tables, live-dealer games run on a clock, bets close, the wheel spins, the dealer reveals cards. Expect a slower pace and a slightly higher minimum bet at live tables versus RNG equivalents.
