Casushi

About Casushi

Casushi was launched in 2020 as part of the Dazzletag group of casinos which is what I would call a “boutique” network since there are only five casinos in it. Peachy Games, Play Sunny, Bingostars and Fruit Kings are the sister sites of Casushi and, if you don’t know any of those names, it’s pretty understandable. Casushi is, by far, the most memorably named site on the Dazzletag network.

Before we dive into the review, though,  let’s take a moment to remember Casushi’s original theming – it was an extraordinary mash-up of sushi, silly cat pictures and rampaging monsters that wasn’t just confined to the home page.  The entire loyalty scheme was based around sushi, and they even managed to theme the responsible gambling message in the form of the Seven Virtues of the Casushi Master.

Unfortunately, all of this anime and video game style of content wasn’t going to cut it under the most recent set of draconian advertising restrictions, so there’s almost nothing left of the theming beyond the name and slogan “The Way We Roll” and the loyalty scheme has also been axed.

Nevertheless, Casushi remains a site that is well worth a look. It has a pretty stacked game lobby with over 1000 slots, live casino games and instant win games available, along with a decent selection of promotions.

Getting Started at Casushi

To become a member at Casushi, the registration process is straightforward and it’s what you would find in the signup at most other sites. The thing that stands out most to me is that the site gives you the ability to set up a deposit limit on the last page of the registration form. It’s only a small gesture, and it’s becoming increasingly common at online casinos. Still, it’s nice to see Casushi making responsible gaming a priority rather than forcing you to hunt in the menu or the footer for safer gambling tools.

Slots at Casushi

At Casushi, you’ve got a great selection of slot games, and it seems like the operators are very much focused on pushing games with more unique and fun themes than your usual fruit machine-style games. It’s nice to see a casino making the more innovative games a priority, and I would suggest Casushi as the place to go if you’re looking for game recommendations that are a little outside of the box.

This is definitely a site for players with open minds, since the only categories for slot games are Popular, New, Megaways and Drops & Wins. When you click on a game, there’s also no information or preview available – so you’re kind of going in blind. Luckily, like I said earlier, Casushi orders its games in such a way that the more interesting ones stand out.

In this selection of slots, you’ll find games from larger studios like Pragmatic Play and Play’n GO – but Casushi also focuses on slots from smaller studios like 4ThePlayer and Hacksaw Gaming. Since every developer has a unique approach to creating games, this kind of diverse slots lobby means that you have all sorts of different art styles, features and mechanics at your disposal.

Progressive jackpots are plentiful here, too. You’ll find Mega Moolah slots from Games Global, Blueprint Gaming’s Jackpot King slots and several progressive games from Eyecon. It’s not the most comprehensive selection but there are some good options if you’re looking to vie for the admittedly tiny chance to win prizes worth hundreds of thousands of pounds.

Outside of the slots lobby at Casushi, you have table games, Slingo and Instant Games. The table game selection is pretty standard, with roulette, blackjack and video poker available, but there are dozens of different Slingo variants to be explored and even more Instant Win games, which include Lucky Tap titles, scratch cards, Pachinko and even Noughts & Crosses.

Lastly, there’s the live casino, which is powered by Pragmatic Play and Evolution Gaming. With two of the biggest live casino providers powering the platform, Casushi’s live casino comes with some fantastic options. In addition to the usual roulette, blackjack and baccarat, there’s also a whole host of game show titles like Crazy Pachinko, Lightning Storm and Boom City. The operator has definitely selected the best of the best to feature in its live casino.

Other Things to Consider

While the loyalty program will be sorely missed at Casushi, there are still several ongoing promotions and offers that should be able to tide you over.

While the 20 free spins in the welcome offer might not look all that impressive at first glance, the real selling point is that there are no wagering requirements attached to your winnings. This is highly unusual in the online casino world; even though there was once a time when no wagering free spin offers were a dime a dozen, you really don’t see them all that often anymore. So, this really makes Casushi stand out from the crowd. After all, the site does need to make a splash since it can’t rely on its kooky looks and theming anymore.  The other part of the welcome offer is also unusual – you collect the bonus as a cash reward after completing wagering with your cash balance.

Then, on an ongoing basis, you’ve got access to free tournaments and prize drops via the ongoing Pragmatic Play Drops & Wins promotion.

From time to time, free spins will also be offered to players who opt in and wager a certain amount of money. As with the welcome offer spins, there are no wagering requirements that come attached to your winnings on these spins – so, they are certainly worth taking advantage of whenever these promos come around.

Out of all the Dazzletag casinos, it’s easy to see why Casushi has made the biggest name for itself. Even though all of the sites in the network have similar layouts, promotions and game selections (with Peachy Games and Bingostars being the only ones with a bingo lobby), Casushi’s branding still gives it a leg up. It’s not as distinctive as it used to be, but there are fun little nods to its quirky origins – like The Master Says quotes on pop-ups (“Today, I realised that the word ‘bed’ looks like a bed”) that still make it slightly more fun to play at than the others.

Final Thoughts

Casushi might not be the quirky sushi-cat-monster fever dream it once was, but it still manages to carve out a nice little niche for itself in the online casino world. I’m a fan of its well-curated slots lobby, no-wagering free spins, and top-tier live casino options, so I’d say plenty is here to keep you entertained. It’s a shame the loyalty program and zany theming had to take a backseat, but the site still has the kind of kooky enough charm and thoughtful features that make it worth exploring.

If you want to play at a casino that really prioritises unique games and fuss-free promotions, Casushi is a solid pick. And, at what other online casinos are you going to get life advice from a wise old sushi master? Not many!
