Well two out of three titles are worth buying. Encore ecould have rebuilt the puzzle and board games. The casino title is built a lot like the card games title, except is the color is green, All inprovements make it worth buying the casino and card games, pass on puzzle and board game title

Great casino game. The menu is a little bit different than other hoyle games but it easy to get used to. Alot of fun. Makes a great Christmas gift.

Not alot of difference between this version and the 2005 but the 3d graphics are better and there are a few more options in facemaker. Overall I like it because it pretty much has all of the games that you would expect to find in a casino.
Pro’s – all the table games plus poker tournaments
Cons – I didn’t really like the slots except for the video poker.

I have bought Hoyle Casino for several years. While the graphics remained the same, the game still got better mainly from artificial intelligence. That is not to say the game is like a person, there are definitely quirks.
2009 changes the graphics finally, though I don’t think they are better, just different. Everything feels smaller. The poker tables are harder to follow because the cards and players are on top of each other. Another annoying part of casino comes with not being able to go “all-in” in poker. Last year, the option was deleted. While not restored, this year you can choose different values easier. Numerous things in the 2009 version are different, but not always better.
Overall, if you want a good casino game Hoyle is the best. If you played it before, save your money because you may not like these improvements. I would wait until the next version when they work out the bugs.
I have not done much with the online, so no opinion. I know when I installed the game, it took about an hour to download the updates (I have a very fast internet connection) because the hoyle site is very slow.
