Mr Green has been around for the best part of 20 years, but this is a completely new UK version of the iconic brand run by a fresh operator. If you had an account there before, you’ll need to sign up again (and can claim the welcome offer).
He’s back…….. The man beneath the green bowler hat, the self proclaimed gentleman of the gaming world where “good betiquette” is an art form. Well ok in the UK anyway, in many other countries he never left. I can hear you all saying, “now hold on a minute, this casino platform has only just shut down”….. and yes you would be right.
In fact, Mr Green has had so many twists and turns you could turn it into a limited series on a popular streaming channel. I will be brief – Mr Green originally opened its doors in 2008, the creation of 3 Swedish entrepreneurs. It evolved into the full package with an added sportsbook and bingo products in 2016 and 2017 respectfully. They even sponsored Celtic and Wigan football teams also dabbling in some darts sponsorship. In 2019 Mr Green was sold to William Hill who subsequently were then purchased by Evoke, (the company behind the 888 brand of gaming platforms) in 2022.
In other twists and turns, in recent years the previous operator of the Mr Green brand has been fined (a substantial sum of money) a couple of times for failing to comply with certain licence conditions by the Gambling Commision. It was all too much for the green suited man and he decided to shut his virtual casino doors within the UK in 2024. Now we know it wasn’t for too long! Mr Green is back with a new operator on a fresh licence (without the bingo or sportsbook at the moment), on the Playtech backed platform Virtue Fusion (who also deliver Sun Bingo and Fab Bingo). But watch this space as this could maybe change in the near future especially the bingo side.
My first impressions is how rather elegant their new platform looks. They haven’t changed their instantly recognisable logo of the man himself standing with a cane in a distinctive green. Of green and white design on both desktop and mobile, Mr Green the gentleman is located around the platform mainly advertising ongoing promotions. Towards the right is your account area and across the top or within the 3 white lines are links to various categories of games. There are also quick links to help centre and responsible gambling which are extremely easy to find and are great to see. It does feel all very neat and tidy, let’s take a closer look under the bonnet.
As this platform has closed and then reopened none of its original customers have been migrated, so the great news is that if you signed up in the past, you will need to sign up again and with this comes a great new welcome offer. If you deposit and wager £10 you will receive 200 free spins on selected slot games. The free spins come with a very reasonable 20x wagering requirement. This delivers fantastic value which you can claim by tapping or clicking on the above link. You can deposit by means of a debit card only at the time of writing which does limit things a little but also makes it very simple indeed. There are also no added charges for depositing and withdrawing as far as we can see.
Please be mindful at the time of writing that Mr Green shares financial limits with operators in the same group, these include Sun Bingo, Sun Vegas, Fabulous Bingo and Fabulous Vegas. If you have been active in the last 6 months at any of these brands you might not be able to sign up. Hopefully this will change in the near future.
The sign up process was simple and very quick taking a couple of minutes at most. There are also options to set deposit limits and reality checks under their very informative responsible gambling area within the “betiquette” section. Mr Green will try and verify your account when you sign up. However, you could be asked to provide ID and proof of address before you play or in the future. Being required to provide ID and proof of address is completely normal with Mr Green practising due diligence in line with the Gambling Commission.
The main games provider here is Playtech so if you love Age of the Gods or Fire Blaze titles you’re in for a treat. However, there are other game providers here which include Quickspin, Inspired and Pragmatic Play to highlight a few. The layout of this platform is generally very good and there are a number of ways you can navigate to the variety of slot games delivered here. From the lobby within the homepage categories include New, Top Rated, Big Bass and Cash Collect titles all neatly housed together.
The slots tab also guides you to different slot categories with Our Picks, Megaways, Fishing and Classic sections. Each category isn’t too overloaded with choice. Speaking frankly there isn’t an enormous amount of choice here compared to some, but what is on offer is quality rather than quantity and could well be still a work in progress. There is a search function but it is rather basic and unless you know what you’re looking for, finding games that may not be listed at random is a little bit harder.
On a positive note all game tiles are a good size on all user devices with each section having an in depth write up with a slots FAQ at the bottom of each page. Also Mr Green really does come into its element a little more when it comes to Jackpot titles. Under its own tab there are sub-categories separating Age of the Gods, Fire Blaze and Jackpot King titles such as God of Storms, Blue Wizard and Eye of Horus.
When it comes to live casino games here it is again pretty much a Playtech affair. Even though there is only one games provider within this element of their platform, there is plenty of choice and variety. Once again just like their slots area the live casino has its own tab from the lobby and is then split into sub-categories.
Roulette, Blackjack and Baccarat all have their own areas. Don’t be misled by the 8 or 12 game tiles in each section, as if you navigate to the lobby tile in each area you open up all the Playtech rooms for your chosen game. The Blackjack lobby has 40+ tables and Roulette 30+. In the top rated category you will find a poker lobby with 6+ different variants so it’s great to just head to the different lobby areas for more game choice.
Game shows have their own section too with Adventures Beyond Wonderland and Mega Fire Blaze Lucky Ball which is a good bingo alternative. Under the casino tab is an exceptional range of classic video casino options mainly featuring blackjack and Roulette with video poker and other deviations under more games. Furthermore, Slingo which is becoming increasingly more popular as of late has its own section with Starburst and Rainbow Riches versions of the game at home there along with many others. Lastly within the slingo section is an instant game area with plinko, scratchcards, lucky tap and crash games.
Alongside Mr Green’s appealing welcome offer are a few ongoing promotions. These include Daily Delights and the enhanced version Deluxe Daily Delights where you can win cash, free spins and other prizes every day. Regal Rewards works like a loyalty scheme where players are rewarded for their game play by completely certain challenges. The goals are realistic and some rewards are wager free and well worth a look, if you decide to participate just don’t forget to opt in.
The all new Mr Green has seemed to hit the ground running with this platform mirrored on desktop and mobile. So if you like taking your play on the go, relaxing in front of tv or chilling out in the garden this place definitely has it covered. There is no app at this present time but this could change in the future. But in the meantime Mr Green is excellent via a mobile browser.
Finally, there is great Customer Support here if needed with a good FAQ area to answer any queries you have. You can find this within the help centre. Live chat is also available from 8am to 1am or further still you can always email or even phone this casino. You never know, Mr Green might even answer the phone himself (highly doubtful).
Having had an account at the previous incarnation of Mr Green I was disappointed when it closed and it’s good to see this platform back in a slightly different form. Now delivered by Virtue Fusion, I’m sure there will be some form of bingo on the horizon. This updated version is good on the eye and laid out very well. With some good ongoing promotions and the chance to sign up all over again, this casino is undoubtedly worth visiting, especially if you enjoyed your time here in the past.

The Responsible Gaming policy statement gives a brief rundown of their safer gambling tools (with quick links) as well as general advice in an easily digestible format (bullet points) and links to the GamCare self assessment test and other outside sources of support.
The FAQ goes into further details about the safer gambling tools and how to use them. It’s the usual deposit limits, reality check, cool off and self exclusion. Note that account limits imposed by the operator are shared between Mr Green and other sites in the same group (Sun Bingo, Fabulous Bingo, The Sun Vegas and Fabulous Vegas).
