• The buffet, named 'Epic Buffet,' is a complete misnomer. Nothing epic about it. Standard Golden Corral buffet offering but 50-60% more expensive, with an additional upcharge if you'd like to get crab legs (only available on Friday and Saturday dinner time). Considering this is in middle of nowhere West Virginia, the prices really surprised me.

Are we missing something?

Chumba Casino was founded by parent company Virtual Gaming Worlds (VGW) in 2012.

It is a social, online casino where players can’t deposit in the usual fashion. Instead, Chumba operates a system based on two virtual currencies: Gold Coins and $weeps (Sweeps) Coins.

This innovative system allows players from any state, including WestVirginia, to legally circumnavigate gambling restrictions and to play for cash prizes.

Chumba’s game selection includes mostly slots, one blackjack , and one video poker game. Sadly, this isn’t as great an offering as those from other top-tier names in the business, although there are some enjoyable games available here.

For US players who want to play safely and legally, Chumba meets their needs.

Legal gambling explained

Chumba Casino has two kinds of virtual currency: GoldCoins and SweepsCoins (SC). Here’s a video explanation of Chumba:

Gold Coins have no real-world value and aren’t exchangeable for cash. New players receive 100,000 coins to start plus free sweeps cash.

Both Gold Coins and Sweeps Cash can be used to play any Chumba games, and winnings are given back in the currency the player uses to bet.

This is important because the free Sweeps currency is exchangeable for US cash prizes. Since players don’t buy Sweeps Cash outright, Chumba doesn’t break any US gamblingregulations.

Players can also choose to buy packs of only Gold Coins. Players need a minimum of $100 worth of Sweeps Coins (SC) before they can make a withdrawal.

How to play at Chumba Casino

Interested bettors can visit Chumba Casino’s website on a variety of devices and through almost any Flash-enabled browser. Customers can also sign up and play via Facebook in the games and apps section of the site.

Chumba may not come with a dedicated application for iOS or Android, but it works perfectly well on most mobile devices. The display adapts to the size and orientation of the user’s screen, making interactions a cinch, whether they’re clicking or swiping.

None of Chumba’s games are hugely graphically intensive either, so even a slightly older tablet or smartphone should be able to run the games smoothly.

Chumba’s game collection

Chumba Casino has a decent selection of slots, but only one table each for video poker and blackjack. There’s no roulette or baccarat, or any other table games available.

Slots

Play at Chumba Casino and enjoy 42 different slot titles:

• Alaskan Fortune
• The Big Goreela
• Gem Huntress
• Reelin n’ Rockin
• Super Hot 7s

The collection covers a wide range of styles, which include vintage, three-reel fruit machine games with 1 cent bets, and modern 30-plus payline, multiple-bonus-round extravaganzas with massive progressive jackpots. Chumba will have something for most kinds of slots fans.

Bets range from SC 0.01 up to SC 10 per spin. While this doesn’t reach the $400 spin heights of some of the most high-rolling games on the market, it should still be good enough for most players.

From time to time, jackpot slots at Chumba Casino can reach progressive heights of SC 1,000,000 or more.

That kind of prize will always be an attraction for any slots player. Although, don’t expect them to reach the eight-figure jackpots offered by the biggest progressives from Microgaming or NetEnt.

Blackjack

There’s only one table game at Chumba: A solitary random number generator blackjack table.

This is standardEuropeanblackjack. It pays out 3-to-2 on blackjack, and the dealer always stands on 17s. Players expecting a multiplayer experience with side bets and bet-behind options will be disappointed.

However, this title runs smoothly, and fans of the 21-based casino classic should find enjoyment here. Players can double down on a good hand at Chumba Casino. There’s no split option on aces, though.

Video poker

Chumba’s only video poker title is a standard jacks or better.

In this game, players try to make the best poker hand they can from five cards on the table. Any cards not picked are swapped out for new ones, and then bets are paid depending on the hand.

Bets start at SC 1. The maximum bet per hand is SC 5. The top prize for pulling a royal flush on a maximum bet is SC 4,000.

Compared to some video poker titles, the paytable is clear. It even updates the odds of pulling each different hand as a player selects and deselects their cards.

Buying Gold Coins at Chumba

There are two ways to play after signing up at Chumba. Players can use their free Gold Coins or buy more that come with Sweeps Coins.

The cost of 900,000 Gold Coins (with SC 10) typically costs $10. However, new players to Chumba can get 900,000 for $5 on their first purchase.

Players must wager Sweeps Coins at least once before they can exchange it for US dollar cash prizes. There is a required minimum of $100 worth before players can make an exchange.

Chumba customers can use either Visa or Mastercard to purchase Gold Coin packages with free Sweeps. These are both safe, secure, globally known payment options.

However, most players would appreciate seeing a quick and convenient e-wallet option, such as PayPal.

New purchase option

Chumba has teamed up with Skrill to offer another option for Gold Coin purchases and to redeem $weeps CoinsSkrill is an online wallet specifically designed to work with mobile and in-game payments. Don’t worry, customers can still use current payment options, Skrill is just an alternative. In the meantime, over the coming months, Chumba will continue to add more games, features, and fun.

Promotions

Players won’t see any traditional casino promotions at Chumba since they don’t deposit in the usual way. The only promotion is the welcome offer detailed above, which players can only claim once.

This means our main source of income to cover bandwidth costs is blocked when you are using our free service.

Due to Chumba’s dual virtual currency system, the usual casino promotions, such as deposit-match bonuses or additional cash prizes, aren’t viable.

Chumba Casino’s customer support

Customers can reach Chumba support via:

• “Zendesk” help chat
• Facebook
• Email at [email protected]

We recommend using Facebook chat as a last resort, but it’s always there as an extra option, which is nice.

There are some frequently asked questions (FAQ) and guides available; however, Chumba comes up short by our standards.

It would be beneficial to see a preview or some other information about the games, rather than relying on the in-game paytable. This would be especially helpful for newer slots players, as they may not know which kind of game will suit them best.

Licensing and legality

Dover Downs

Chumba’s patented system means they can legally offer online casino gameplay and cash prizes to players from the UnitedStates, including West Virginia.

Chumba’s parent company, Virtual Gaming Worlds, also operates a successful poker room based on the same system.

Both have operated without legal hitches for many years, so players can be sure they are perfectly safe and legal places to gamble online.

Chumba is a licensee of the Malta Gaming Authority. The small, Mediterranean island nation is a hub for online gambling in Europe, and any certificate from them is one of the world’s most respected licenses.
