Game Village Casino Review

Review last updated - May 2020.

OVERVIEW | 5.60/10


Game Village Casino is on the Electraworks platform and it is licensed by the Gibraltar Gambling Commission and the UKGC. They provide a limited range of games from Net Entertainment and Quickspin. Their site features a purple, orange and white colour pallet and their logo features their name over a silhouette of some houses.

TRUSTWORTHINESS | 3/10


The Bwin/Party group extend to cover Bwin and Party casino alongside the iGlobal Media group that owns several Playtech casinos and the Electraworks group.

Historically these groups have been consistent in their refusal to discuss player complaints with 3rd party dispute mediation services (like ThePOGG). This has resulted in a poor reputation with these services. However in late 2017/early 2018 we have managed to establish a line of communication with this group and we have been assured all issues will now be resolved. In the intervening time period they have held to this commitment alongside having maintained a consistently low level of complaints.

Sadly, as of May 2020 this group has reverted to being non-responsive to player complaints submitted to this service.

Licensing | 10 / 10


GameVillage hold the following gambling licenses :

  • United Kingdom Gambling Commission - The UKGC are widely considered to be the most reputable regulators involved in the online gambling market. They do not manage complaints for players directly, instead requiring their operators to appoint a UKGC accredited Alternative Dispute Resolution service. As such the value of this license for players depends largely on the professionalism of the ADR service utilised. GameVillage currently use eCOGRA. You can find further information regarding this regulator's complaint policies here.
  • Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission - The IoMGSC are one of the stronger regulatory authorities operating within the online gambling market. You can find further information regarding this regulator's complaint policies here.
  • Gibraltar Gaming Commission - The GGC is one of the more reputable online gaming regulators, but we are aware of a serious software issue where they failed to uphold their own technical standards. You can find further information regarding this regulator's complaint policies here.

Closing Thoughts


The extended Bwin/Party group do not seem to be able to decided what their position on the management of player complaints is. Year to year we get totally different responses, varying from enthusiastic cooperation to total stone wall. Until there is some consistency in approach this is not a group we can recommend to players.
