Scratch Cards
Scratch Cards
Scratch cards are a fairly recent phenomenon in the world on online gaming, but they have really caught on and become one of the most popular areas of any online casino. There are even casinos online that purely cater for online scratch card enthusiasts. William Hill have 10 scratch cards in there casino. The idea is obviously the same for each – match three symbols in whichever order is asked for in the game and you win the value of that scratchcard.
Easter Surprise Scratch Card
Match three rabbit symbols to win the value on the scratchcard. You can wager up to £/$/E per card and luckily there is an autoplay option, so that you only have to press one button to spend £/$/E at a time. I am being serious, but also slightly sarcastic – with so many other brilliant games on William Hil Casino why would you want to play a virtual scratch card where you cant even really pretend to get the same level of anticipation that you would if you went to your local shops and bought one?
Winners Club Scratch Card
Winners Club is a traditional online scratch card that displays nine covered boxes. Press the start button to scratch off the covers and if you match three amounts you win. Each ticket costs between£/$/E0.40 and £/$/E4.00 and you buy them in blocks of ten, although there is also an autoplay feature. If you opt to play with the higher valued scratchcards there is also a progressive Jackpot that you can win.
Pharaohs Kingdom Scratch Card
Pharoahs Kingdom bring the ever popular Egyptian theme to the world of online scratchcards. Choose the value of your card up to £/$/E100. Next scratch off the 6 symbols on your card. If you match one symbol with the main symbol on the card then you win the value of that symbol. Very simple. Very quick. Very boring.
Beetle Bingo Scratch Card
OK. Beetle Bingo is actually a pretty decent scratchcard. You start by selecting your wager and then scratching off your card. This will reveal three lines of numbers, each with its own win value. An animated pot of bugs will then open up and will drop 15 of the bugs onto the screen. Each bug has a number on its back and these numbers are scratched off your three lines of numbers. If you complete a line then you win the value of that line.
Blackjack Scratch Card
The screen is set up like a normal Blackjack screen. You are deal three hands, with the first card face up and the second hand covered off. Scratch of the value of the second card and if the total of the two cards in your hand is higher than the deales then you win the value on the table. We played 15 hands. Didnt win once.
Classic Slots Scratch Card
There are three chances to win in this online game. Select your wager and then scratch off the three slot games. If you get three matching symbols on any of the games then you win the value shown under the game. Its disappointing that when you scratch the reels off they don’t even spin to be honest, but we did win on this one though, so its not all bad.
Football Mania Scratch Card
Football Mania plays in exactly the same way as the Pharaohs Kingdon online scratch card game except that the revealed symbols are all football (or soccer for our American friends) related. You can wager up to £/$/E100 per game.
Love Match Scratch Card
This online scratchie plays in exactly the same way as the Easter Suprise scratch except that its based on some cutesy lovey dovey theme with symbols including angels, lollipops, teddy bears and champagne. Its so sickly that my teeth hurt just playing it. Match three angels in a row to win the value on the scratchcard.
Roulette Scratch Card
Roulette is a very simple game to play – almost as simple as the real thing to be honest. Simply choose your wager and then scratch off the values in the boxes. If one of them matches the number on the roulette wheel then you win the amount that is next to the winning number.
Santa Scratch Scratch Card
The final online scratch card at William Hills online casino is Santa Scratch. I’m always a little mystified as to why Santa is a popular theme for scratch cards and online slot machines – firstly he is a seasonal figure and secondly he isn’t recognised by a lot of the potential online gaming audience due to their particular faith (or lack of) or country of origin. Anyway, here is propping up another tiresome scratch card that is identical to both Pharaohs Kingdom and Love Match. As they all play the same way, I can just say that Santa Scratch is not as good as Pharaohs Kingdom, but is miles better than Love Match. Sheesh, I’m a hard man to please, aren’t I!
