Spring is definitely on its way, the sun is trying its very hardest to come out, the first flowers are tentatively popping their heads out from the ground, and change is in the air.If you’re getting into the spirit of transition that spring brings with it, then you may be considering a new online casino site to try your luck at, here are a few new sites that have recently landed on the market that could be just what you’re looking for.

Fantasino

If you enjoy saying the phrase “Fantasino is an online casino” out loud, then this is definitely a site that is worthy of your consideration.There is an underlying sense of fun at this site that is likely to connect with those who look for enjoyment above all else with online casino play.This is a great looking site, that’s easy to navigate and endlessly entertaining in its style and theme, but content does not take a backseat here, as titles from 1X2gaming, Authentic Gaming, Betgames TV, BG, Endorphina, EveryMatrix, Evolution, Felt, Genii, Habanero Systems B.V., Join Games, Leander Games, LuckyStreak, MrSlotty, NetEnt, OMI Gaming, PariPlay, Playson, Quickspin, Spigo, Spinomenal, Vivo Gaming, World Match, and XPG prove.Casino play should be fun, and it is here, but it should also be of the highest quality, and Fantasino supplies that too.New Casino Sites April 2017

Happy Hugo

Fun loving casino players are spoilt for choice in April, as Happy Hugo also caters for players with such preferences.Fronted by a cute orange alien with an infectious smile, Happy Hugo is a colourful, playful site that also has a lot to offer the more hardcore casino lover.Games come by way of BetSoft, GameART, iSoftBet, and NetEnt, which may not be as thorough a list as that offered by Fantasino, but with a host of slot titles, table and card games, and video poker in various forms, Happy Hugo does a lot to make up for that.Throw in a wager free welcome bonus that totals up to €1,000, and Happy Hugo is another site that puts itself in a strong position to be competitive, even in the busy iGaming market.New Casino Sites April 2017

Calvin Casino

And now for something completely different. Calvin Casino does not have the playful tone enjoyed by the two sites mentioned above, and this is clear from the serious looking man with the perfectly maintained moustache who greets you on the homepage, with an expression that is almost reminiscent of a Bond villain.The theme here is affluence and decadence, Calvin is clearly reaching for the high rollers, and a €200 welcome bonus with 150 free spins thrown in will certainly help with that.Game providers are limited here, with GamesOS, Microgaming, and NetEnt sharing the honours, but the games page, adorned with fabulous looking models in audacious gold outfits, lets you know quickly that you’re not losing out, with a variety of different slot titles available, as well as a plethora of table and card games, many of which are playable in Calvin’s impressive live Casino.There’s a lot of competition for Calvin Casino, especially considering the popularity of their chosen theme amongst online casino sites, so a few more software providers would not go amiss, but this is still an impressive site with a lot to offer.New Casino Sites April 2017Whether you’re looking for somewhere fun, and maybe a little bit silly to play, or you take your online casino play very seriously, one of these sites will be able to cater for your needs, there may have never been a better time to be looking for somewhere new to play!
