Casino Atlas tracks 26 game types across India-facing casinos, from slots and live card tables to cricket betting markets. This page explains what each one actually is and where Indian players will realistically find it. Games are grouped by how they play rather than by lobby label, so Teen Patti sits with the card games whether it is dealt live or by software.
Online Slots
Slots are the largest category at almost every online casino, and the default starting point for most players. Libraries at India-facing sites typically run into the thousands. Volume matters less than which studios are behind it, so a recognised provider list is the better signal. These are spin-based games with fixed or variable paylines, from three-reel classics to feature-heavy video slots with bonus rounds.
Card and Table Games
This section covers the classic formats dealt from a deck or played on a table layout, from blackjack and roulette to Teen Patti, Andar Bahar, and Rummy. The house edge varies widely across them. Blackjack and baccarat sit at the low end, while Teen Patti and Andar Bahar carry a higher edge in exchange for much faster rounds.
Andar Bahar
A fast Indian card game where you bet on which side, Andar or Bahar, matches the dealer’s card. Rounds take seconds, which is a large part of why the live version is so popular.
Teen Patti
India’s three-card relative of poker, played against the dealer rather than other players in the casino version. Live tables from Ezugi and Evolution are the common format online.
Poker
Offered as live dealer variants, video poker, and at a few sites true player-versus-player rooms. Most India-facing casinos carry the first two rather than a full poker room.
Blackjack
Played against the dealer to 21, with one of the lowest house edges in the casino. The rules variant matters, so check whether a table pays 3:2 or 6:5 on a blackjack.
Dragon Tiger
A two-card version of baccarat, and about as simple as casino games get. One card goes to Dragon, one to Tiger, and you bet on which is higher.
Roulette
Bet on where the ball lands, with European single-zero wheels offering better odds than American double-zero ones. Check which version a table uses before you sit down.
Rummy
A skill-based melding game with a large Indian following, though casino sites offer it less often than Teen Patti or Andar Bahar. Dedicated rummy platforms carry deeper cash-game formats.
Baccarat
Bet on Player, Banker, or Tie, with almost nothing to decide after that. The Banker bet carries the lowest house edge, which is why it draws most of the action.
Live Casino
Live casino is the format that defines online play in India, not a side category. Ezugi, Evolution, and Pragmatic Play Live run dedicated Teen Patti, Andar Bahar, and Dragon Tiger tables, several with Hindi-speaking dealers. That combination is what separates a genuinely India-facing lobby from a global one with an Indian landing page.
Dice Games
Dice games are a smaller category online, but one where India-facing casinos carry something global sites often do not. Jhandi Munda in particular is a regional format rarely found outside South Asian lobbies.
Jhandi Munda
A traditional Indian six-dice game where you bet on which of six symbols comes up most often. Simple to follow, and one of the clearer local signals when a casino stocks it.
Sic Bo
A three-dice game of Chinese origin, played by betting on totals or specific combinations. Payouts scale with how unlikely the outcome is, from near-even money to well over 100 to 1.
Craps
A dice game with a large bet menu and a loyal following, more common at Western-facing casinos than Indian ones. Live craps tables exist but stay rare in India-facing lobbies.
Lottery Games
Lottery-style games range from instant-win games where you buy tickets/entries and hope for the best to social experiences such as Bingo. Many Indian online casinos carry these lottery and instant-win games.
Scratch Cards
Digital versions of the paper original, where you reveal symbols for an instant result. Quick and low-stakes, with no decisions to make once the card is bought.
Lottery
Draw-based games including international lotteries and rapid-draw formats such as keno. Results are fixed by the draw, so there is no strategy element at all.
Bingo
Number-matching games played in rooms alongside other players, usually on 75-ball or 90-ball formats. A smaller category at India-facing casinos than in the UK.
Other Games
These do not fit the card, table, or dice pattern, but several are among the most played formats at India-facing casinos. Aviator in particular has become a category of its own, with a long list of similar crash titles alongside it.
Aviator
The crash game that defined the category. A multiplier climbs until it crashes, and your job is to cash out before that happens. Spribe’s original sits alongside a long list of similar crash titles.
Mahjong
Tile-matching games based on the Chinese original, usually appearing online as solitaire-style or slot-hybrid versions. The full four-player game is rare.
Monopoly Live
Evolution’s game show format built on a money wheel, with a bonus round played out on a 3D board. It sits closer to a wheel game than to anything on a card table.
Sports Betting
Most India-facing casinos run a sportsbook alongside the casino, sharing one wallet and one account. Cricket carries the market, though the depth of everything else varies widely between operators. Live in-play betting is standard, and match streaming is offered at some sites.
Cricket Betting
The centre of Indian sports betting by a wide margin, covering the IPL, internationals, and domestic T20 leagues. Depth goes well beyond the match result, into session, over, and player markets.
Football Betting
The second sport by volume, built mainly on the Premier League, Champions League, and European domestic leagues. The Indian Super League gets coverage but far thinner markets.
Horse Racing Betting
Covers Indian racecourses alongside UK, Australian, and Hong Kong meetings. Offshore books usually price international racing more deeply than domestic fixtures.
Tennis Betting
Grand Slams and ATP or WTA tour events, with markets on match, set, and game outcomes. Popular for in-play betting because the scoring produces constant price movement.
Kabaddi Betting
Built almost entirely around the Pro Kabaddi League, and a genuine local signal when a sportsbook covers it properly. Markets are usually limited to the result and the handicap.
Badminton Betting
Covers BWF tour events and the Premier Badminton League, where India has real competitive presence. Markets are thin compared with cricket or football.
Basketball Betting
Mostly the NBA and EuroLeague, with some coverage of Indian domestic play. Handicap and totals markets are the standard offering.
Esports Betting
Covers CS2, Dota 2, Valorant, and mobile titles with strong Indian followings such as BGMI. A growing category, though market depth trails traditional sports.
