Full Diamond Reels Casino Review
Launched in 2015, Diamond Reels is just one casino within a network that we're becoming more and more familiar with, overall for very good reasons. The casinos we've reviewed positively in this group have become widely reported as being generous with player rewards and extremely fast to pay-out, even with new clients.
Alas, as with some of the Diamond Reels sister-brands so-far reviewed at Casino-Download.com (
Island Reels,
Lion Slots,
Platinum Reels,
Slotgard,
SlotsWin,
Sloto Stars,
Spin Dimension,
SpinoVerse and
Vegas2Web
), not everything is awesome at first sight and improvements could be made. It's a mixed bag.
As with Lion Slots, SlotsWin, SpinoVerse and most others in the group, Diamond Reels Casino is an almost-purely SpinLogic/RTG affair with the only exception being live dealer games, powered by Visionary iGaming. There is a link to download Diamond Reels deluxe PC edition at the casino's website and here at Casino-Download.com. Players can alternatively use the Diamond Reels no-download mobile edition, suitable for phones and pads.
What's the welcome bonus at Diamond Reels Casino?
Diamond Reels offer some very attractive welcome bonuses but - as with other casinos in this group - they don't do a particularly great job of explaining things on its website. And it's a shame, because the Diamond Reels website could and should be so much better and in-line with the general quality of the rest of the casino.
Our biggest niggle is that Diamond Reels hasn't described the welcome bonuses very clearly and then made things worse by unnecessarily hiding away the main bonus terms in the general casino T&C, instead of listing all details on the promotions page (where it should be). Most players don't wade through the T&C (although everyone should if you're playing for real money) and so could remain mystified enough to just play somewhere less confusing. And they'd be missing out on a great online casino in Diamond Reels.
The initial deposit bonuses, activated with deposits of $35 or more, are a generous 400% bonus up to $6,000 on your first TWO deposits - so up to $12,000 maximum. You can increase this further by depositing via Mastercard or crypto and gain an additional 10% to your bonus money.
Whatever your deposit method, use promo code CROWNJEWEL to get your opening 400% bonuses and to add to the bounty, you'll also get an extra bonus of 50 free spins on SpinLogic's Giant Fortunes slot game (100 spins in total across first two deposits).
There are alternative/additional welcome bonuses to be considered when you first download Diamond Reels (if playing via PC) and create your new account. Diamond Reels confuses things by mixing up maximum bonus/maximum deposit in a role reversal from how every other other online casino describes bonuses. So it's confusing to say the least.
What we can be certain of is that Diamond Reels offer another double-bonus (available to claim twice) especially for crypto players. This is a 250% bonus available when depositing $30 or more via crypto. Use promo code CRYPTOGEM to claim this one. Diamond Reels describes this crypto bonus as '250% match up to $200' which SHOULD be clear enough but knowing how this group likes to switch numbers around with bonuses, we're 99% sure this is a 250% up to a DEPOSIT of $200, so a $200 deposit should get you a $500 bonus or $1000 if you're claiming it twice. Clear? It really shouldn't need to be this complicated, Diamond Reels. Somewhat taking the mega-win potential away from this bonus is this term to be aware of, 'The max cashout is set at 20 x the deposit value (capped at $2500).'
There are two other bonuses you can claim as a new member at Diamond Reels. First, a 65% table games bonus and second, a 100 free spins promo - each claimable once. The table games bonus has no maximum cashout but disappointingly, the free spins bonus (played on the Khrysos Gold slot) has a max cashout of $2500.
You may decide to claim some of the above bonuses or even ALL of them, or none of them - whatever suits you.
How do I download Diamond Reels Casino?
First up, if you're reading this using a mobile device and only intend to play at Diamond Reels using your mobile equipment then you won't need to download Diamond Reels casino software. Everything will be played in your usual mobile browser without downloading an app.
PC/laptop users (and Mac owners, using a PC-emulator) can opt to 'go pro' and download Diamond Reels premium version of the casino. You can use the same login details to access your casino in all formats. The PC casino software is free to download and contains everything you need to get started at Diamond Reels. If you're new to the casino then you can open your new account at this stage. You can also try all of the games for free before depositing any real money - a great way to 'find your feet' around new games without risking any real cash.
Diamond Reels don't make life easy for its website visitors (again) by hiding the 'DOWNLOAD' link for its casino software all the way at the bottom of its homepage, between irrelevant links. It would be far more helpful if there was a prominent button to download Diamond Reels right in the middle of the website, or in the top-of-page navigation.
Assuming you do want to download Diamond Reels to PC then you've got two options - either visit the casino's website and perform the downloading from there, OR, download a 'future-proof' link to Diamond Reels here at Casino-Download.com. Your future-proof link will behave as it sounds - it'll download Diamond Reels Casino's software now and again if/when you need it again in the future (new computer). Given how difficult Diamond Reels' download link is to locate, we wouldn't be surprised if it gets hidden even deeper in the future. No matter which option you go for when downloading Diamond Reels, you'll be getting the same file direct from the casino.
Is Diamond Reels a trusted casino?
We haven't been recommending the casinos in this network for very long but that's quickly changing. The positive feedback from players is turning from a trickle into a stream with lots of reports of fast payments, excellent customer care and superb client retention through generous loyalty rewards.
We're going to continue to be annoyed at Diamond Reels Casino's website and the way bonuses are poorly explained but behind these daft mistakes is a very trusted, high quality online casino that we are confident will continue to have a bright future.
Recommended?
We'd love to see Diamond Reels spend some serious time on their website to tidy things up but other than that, we have very few complaints. Fast payments, solid customer care, an excellent loyalty program and generous rewards all combine to make Diamond Reels a thoroughly recommendable online casino. Especially if you're planning on downloading the casino to PC.
