Like it or not, the future of craps has arrived in Las Vegas. Harrah’s is the first Las Vegas casino to have Roll to Win Craps, a multi-sensory new take on a quintessential casino game.<\/p>\n

We fully expected to hate Roll to Win Craps, but after our first test drive of the game, we’re thinking it’s a fun alternative to the traditional dice game and you should fully expect Roll to Win Craps to be in every Vegas casino within a year or so. No, really.<\/p>\n

Trust us, we never expected to type those words.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the game we’ve decided to call “Pew Pew Craps.” Because everything’s better with “pew pew.”<\/p>\n

Roll to Win Craps. This ain’t your grandpa’s felt.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Roll to Win Craps is aimed directly at a younger generation of casino customers.<\/p>\n

From what we’ve seen so far, reactions to the game have fallen into two camps: 1) Abomination. 2) Bomb. (Alternatively, fleek.)<\/p>\n

Thankfully, you don’t have to choose sides. Traditional craps tables aren’t going away anytime soon. Pew Pew Craps just gives customers another option.<\/p>\n

This table was full during our entire session. Hint: It’s the minimums.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

While the visual stimulation may appear to be the biggest draw of Roll to Win Craps, it’s actually the lower table minimum.<\/p>\n

At Harrah’s, the table minimum was $10, but $25 at all the other craps tables. Roll to Win was full, the others had a player or two each at most. All those players were looking over at Roll to Win Craps. There’s some serious FOMO (fear of missing out) happening.<\/p>\n

Lower table minimums are very appealing to players, but don’t always pencil out for casinos, especially when you factor in labor costs. That’s one of the reasons it’s rare to find a $5 craps table on The Strip these days. It’s a money-loser.<\/p>\n

Players often go for a low minimum game, even if the house advantage is greater. (All eyes on triple zero roulette.)<\/p>\n

Casinos will be able to offer low minimums on Roll to Win Craps because it eliminates three staff positions. The game requires one stick person, so two dealers and the box man are out.<\/p>\n

But let’s get into the game itself, shan’t we? Here’s some video we snagged at Harrah’s, and surprisingly, nobody tackled us. Good luck watching this without hearing “Pew, pew!” in your head!<\/p>\n
