Traditionally, UK players generally DON’T have to sign up to an online casino to play in the free play demo mode. However, due to increasingly strict gaming laws a growing number of online casinos have basically got rid of their free play demo mode to guest players (players who are just visiting the website and don’t actually have an active account with the casino).
In other words, the free play demo mode does still exist, but you often need to go through the sign up process just to gain access to this risk-free mode. At the time of writing (August 2018) some online casinos where you can still visit and sample the games in the free play demo mode without having to open a real money account include sites such as Mr Green Casino, Casumo Casino, Intercasino and Caribic Casino.
You can simply visit the casino and play on almost all of the games in the free play mode. Just choose a game that you like the look of, hover over it or click on the game’s thumbnail and then the free play / practice mode option should become available. Click on this option and the game that you are trying to play on should start loading straight away. Games generally take just seconds to load and then you can use your free play demo mode chips to play on the game.
Don’t worry if you run out of your chips because you can easily top them up again either by closing the game and reloading it, or by closing the casino and then opening it up again in a new tab. If your free chips still haven’t topped up after doing this and reloading the game, you may need to clear your cache which takes just a few seconds.
The free play mode is also available at most of our other top-rated UK online casinos, but as mentioned you will need to register an account to gain access to this mode. The only other thing that you need to be aware of is that a certain number of games will NEVER be available in the free play demo mode.
For example most Live Dealer Casino Games are usually only ever available in the real money, along with certain progressive jackpot slot such as Beach Life (from Playtech) and Mega Moolah (from Microgaming).You should also be pleased to learn that most other table & card games, instant win games and video poker games at today’s best UK online casinos are generally always available in the free play mode, not just the slots.
