I have checked those promotions and mentioned them in the review. There are several things I don't like about them:
1. Each challenge is focused on one single game. This is forcing me to play a game that I might don't like to play at all.
2. I have to manually collect some game history links in order to participate, which is not something I would like to spend my time on
3. Most of the challenges have luck-based mechanics, which does not guarantee you any winnings at all. I prefer straightforward promotions - you get a certain reward for a certain amount wagered.
Luck based mechanics? Its always been like this just like in most gambling sites and it does really work on that way.
So this turns out this is a personal kind of view or preference which it isn't surprising that setting or giving a 3.5 score out of 5
and just like what others mentioned above then its your criteria then you are the ones who will set out.
If you check the structure of my reviews, then you will find out, that there are 10 different sections that are contributing to the total score, each giving from zero to 0.5 points to the overall rating.
The promotions is not the only thing that is influencing the rating, so there is no need to focus that much on this section.
When making the reviews I am operating with numbers and facts. In terms of promotions, I try to figure out, how profitable are the promos offered by the casino for the players.
Crypto.games has received 2 points for promos, now let's compare it to the casino that got the maximum of 5 points from me in this section - Duelbits (you can check the
full review here). Duelbits is offering bits cashback: instant (10% of the house edge), daily, weekly and monthly (5% of the house edge each). Additionally, there are level up rewards and regular races.
Now let's make a side to side comparison.
What games can you play to get rewards? Crypto.games: Only one game per day
Duelbits: Every game you can find on the website
What should you do to get a reward?Crypto.games: Find out what are the details of the coming challenge, collect winning bets, post them on forum
Duelbits: Play any games you want and hit one button to get a reward.
How much will you get after wagering 100 dollars?Crypto.games: No one will tell you. This is what I call luck-based mechanics: you never know how much in bets would be needed to complete the challenge.
Duelbits: If I play 96% RTP slot, then after wagering 100 USD I will get: 4 USD x 10% = 0.4 USD as an instant reward and 0.6 USD more in total for daily, weekly and monthly cashback.
Now you probably understand better, why Crypto.games has 2 points in the promo section and some other casinos might get a better result here. Despite of having 5 points for the promotions, the total rating of Duelbits is 3.4, which is less than 3.5 for Crypto.games. This also illustrates that not the promos only are not deciding what will be the final score.
I try not to make any judgments based on the 'personal kind of view or preference'. I rather try to operate with the facts and numbers.
