Fun Games. Never Get Bored!
I purchased this as a gift for my 63 year old mom for Christmas, along with the Hoyle Card Games 2008, because she is always looking to learn how to play new casino games and she is totally hooked on solitaire. She is not very PC savvy, but learned how to play the games pretty quickly. The help that comes along with the game is useful but may need some interpretation if you don't know the game basics. Overall, it was a very good purchase.

My Wife's "Casino, away from casino" pastime
This was a Christmas present for my wife, who had a previous version on her Mac...that was recently upgraded to the PC world with Vista. She loved the old version and likes the new one as well. There are more games and slightly better graphics. She enjoys the "face creator" that lets you personalize the playeers' identities.

The odds are against you!
I found Hoyle's Casino 2008 to be bland and lackluster. While the bug in the Craps game (as mentioned by many in the 2007 version) has been fixed, the game itself is simply dull. A casino game should engage the player, and at least try to simulate the thrill of the games found in Las Vegas. Hoyle has managed to keep the look and feel of a 1990s era software program, and doesn't come close to competing with the 2001 release of Bicycle's Casino ver 2. What is missing in this package is the feeling that the games exist in a connected environment. Instead, the clunky menus that take you from game to game constantly remind you that you're playing a $20 computer game. Come on Hoyle, let's step it up. It's time to shed the ghost of Sierra and come up with something more original.

Finally Compatible with Mac OS X
I've loved the Hoyle game series (Card Games, Casino, and Puzzle & Board Games)for many years. But, the last Mac versions were released in 2002 and were only compatible with OS 9. These older versions were still playable on pre-Intel Macs, but the newer Macs with Intel chips no longer have compatibility with pre-Mac OS X software.
Finally, the long wait is over and new versions of the excellent Hoyle Games are available for today's Mac users! :-)
