JackpotCity Introduce The World's Weirdest Casino Games

TA' XBIEX, Malta, June 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Nowadays you'll find all the casino favourites - blackjack, poker, roulette and baccarat - online, on your mobile, on TV, as well as casinos up and down the country. But casinos have offered up far more than just these casino staples over the years. Just as online casinos are always looking to expand their games selection to attract new players, traditional casinos have a long history of testing out new games on the casino floor too. If you're bored of the casino classics, JackpotCity offers up some surprising casino games that never quite made it to classic status in the games halls.

Belgian Birdsong

Over in Belgium, there's one casino game that really ruffles feathers. In Belgian Birdsong, players wager on real birdsongs. Birds are placed in separate cages and players then place wagers on which bird they think will sing the longest, which bird will sing loudest, and so on. The perfect casino game for nature lovers, at least you won't have to work out any complicated odds!

War

What started out as a childhood card game is actually still played on some casino floors today. War is the simplest of card games - you're dealt a card, the dealer is dealt a card, and whoever holds the highest card wins. The aim is to win the whole deck, one card at a time. In short, this game isn't. If you have the time, the patience, and the funds, you can play forever! While it might not be the most complex card game at the casino, its basic premise inspired several casino classics.

Gerbil Roulette

Forget that bouncing roulette ball, in this game it's a gerbil that decides whether you win or lose with your lucky spin. Instead of a ball being dropped onto the spinning roulette wheel, a gerbil is placed in a box at the centre of the wheel. Additional numbered boxes are attached to the outer spokes of the wheel. The wheel is spun, the gerbil is released, and whichever numbered box it then decides to scurry into is the winning number. Gerbils aren't the only rodents used in this crazy roulette variant - rats, mice and hamsters are too.
