When I was first asked to consider doing a review of The Golden Fang Casino I was unsure if I wanted the assignment or not. I had no idea what direction it would take if I decided to check them out. If you have sat at Luna Bank for any length of time on a Wed or Sat night, then you too may have heard the same accusations I have. Cheaters, scammers, everything is rigged etc. The last thing I wanted was to be stuck in a position of weighing building the community versus exposing a scam. When it comes to Shard Reporting I feel it is our obligation/responsibility to try and build the community in whatever positive ways we can. Did I really want to waste an hour or two looking into something only to find out it’s a scammers delight, when that time could be better spent somewhere else? As I tried to balance it and make my decision it finally hit me…. IF there was a scam, then exposing it would be building the community in a way. My mind made up, I mounted up and caught the next gate to The Golden Fang.

This is not a suspense story, so I will not hold my opinion on the scam versus no scam until the end. After spending some time reading the rules of the various games The Golden Fang actually has a considerably less statistical advantage to them winning than real casinos have. Is it a gamble? Can you lose gold? Well Duhhhhh, that’s why they call it a Casino. Can you win gold? Not to brag but I pocketed a little over 7m in just under an hour of gambling on an alt character. Not to mention the 5m I pocketed by winning the Chicken Fight on my main character, or the people who shared in the raffle with a total prize of 3.5m. So, yes, you can. My personal opinion on Scam versus No Scam? No Scam at all, just some good folks coming together to break up the mundane and give the people of Atlantic another avenue to have some fun.

Since that is out of the way…..

The Golden Fang Casino is a perfect place to unwind after a long day of skill training, monster bashing, bank sitting or any other activity Britannia has to offer. From the moment you walk between the towering Golden Gargoyle Statues and through the double doors you know great thought, care and pride went into every aspect of the Casino. Featuring 24/7 Slot Machines, Chicken Fights on Saturday nights and six different dice games with names like Craps, Blackjack and Beat the Bank to choose from, even a novice gambler can find something that sparks their interest. Rules are clearly displayed for all the games, and the friendly, courteous staff will gladly explain in detail anything you do not quite understand. For the aggressive gambler they offer true High Roller status. Not only can you earn High Roller armor that pays you a table credit on each visit, but you can also achieve Legendary High Roller Status and be immortalized with a statue of yourself in their High Roller Club.

If gambling is not your thing The Golden Fang is a perfect place to grab that someone special and head out for a nice dinner and a few drinks. You can sit atop the Casino taking in the spectacular panoramic view of the westernmost part of The Northern Crags while enjoying a full menu featuring dishes elaborate as Roast Pig, and as simple as Chaos Wings. Not only does the food menu cater to every taste, but the Drink and Spirits list does as well. They run the gamut from a Light Ale that indeed goes down smooth as they claim to Darkshade Delight, their own blend of several liquors topped off with nightshade extract. If you are an occasional drinker I would shy away from the latter, as it seems to be designed to knock something proverbial in the dirt. When it comes to building a successful establishment you can tell the only things the staff has left to chance are the games themselves.

So, if you find yourself tired of the grind one Wed. or Sat. night around 6:00pm Est., give the folks of The Golden Fang a shot at breaking you out of the rut. Personally, I would urge you to do it this Saturday night as they are unveiling The Golden Fang Nightclub, in addition to the normal Casino activities. Just look for the gates in Luna or use the Teleporter at the Blue Crane Portal, just across the street to the West of Goodman’s Rune Library.
Thank You Kylie for taking the time to visit and write this.

only recently befriended them from my experiences at their casino, and believe in what they have been working to accomplish…

I know that Kylie Kinslayer already wrote a review and what a wonderful well written review it was! However, I wanted to share my own experience of the Golden Fang Casino and Night Club. I have been to other player run Casino’s before, but never have I experienced one run quite like the Golden Fang Casino! I am absolutely thrilled with this Casino, and wish to promote it, as I feel that it offers Atlantic a great place to “hang out” and have fun. Even if you are not a usual role-player, (which I am not) the casino is a fully created world that seems to hold endless possibilities. The ideas come from brilliant role-players whose imagination is limitless, and they, as well as their elaborately created atmosphere will make it possible to easily slip into a character role of your choosing. Waitresses will be at your beck and call, and dealers ready and willing to try and fulfill your dreams of riches, (or to just give you a good time even if you lose money). Despite the fact that the Grand opening has come and gone for a while now, I will begin describing my experiences with that day...

The first time I stepped into the casino, on their grand opening night, I was stunned. The design was breathtaking! Dark plush carpeting, lined the floor, with glistening embroidery which sparkled and added to the classy look of the Casino. Off to the right, slot machines lined the wall, and the enthusiastic cheers from winners added excitement to the atmosphere. To the left there was a grand dealer table complete with comfortable seats which beckoned you to sit and try your luck.

Greeters announced the arrival of guests. I felt like royalty, as I entered this world full of splendor, and I felt as if I was leaving my former self behind. I was now someone glamorous and important, someone who was to be waited on, and treated as someone special, if even just for the night. Upon entering the Golden Fang Casino, I was greeted by Ace, an owner. (He takes the time to personally greet guests if he is not dealing at the high rollers table). Then Nikki the hostess/waitress runs up and puts a book in my hand. The words “raffle and winnings” are whispered in my ear, and then she offers me a drink. As I take the drink from her hands, I am then drawn to the grandeur of the beautiful staircases cascading down from the floors above.

As I floated up the stairwell, and into another beautiful room, the atmosphere felt almost surreal, yet was very comforting. The room had more dealer tables, and Jack, one of the dealers beckoned me to have a seat. I was nervous, but he was patient and kind while I fumbled my way into learning the rules of each of games. Nikki the beautiful and sexy waitress would make sure we all had drinks, and she would make all the men around feel special. She would even do some dances on the pole nearby!

Pretty soon I was feeling like a gambling pro. I enjoyed myself immensely while playing game after game, with Jack good naturedly teasing me about my losses, and taking my wins in stride. Before long Jack felt like one of my good friends, albeit one that I would gladly take money from!

Pretty soon an announcement was made! A chicken fight! I quickly purchased a chicken, and entered the fights. I did not anticipate the adrenaline rush that I would have participating in such an event! It was so exciting…every win that my chicken had, and before I knew it, I was competing for the grand prize! Unfortunately, my chicken came so very close to winning, but succumbed at the very end. I was still proud of my second place.

Back, we went to the gambling room, where high rollers were rewarded with ceremonies. Onlookers were obviously envious and wishing they too would soon join the ranks of high rollers, and perhaps even have a statue of themselves sitting in the Legendary High Rollers room!
All too soon the evening came to an end, but a few lingered and goaded some dealers into staying a bit later than intended. All in all, the grand opening was an unforgettable magical night, and all thanks to the hard work and dedication of the owners and staff of the Golden Fang Casino!

Part II –Review of the Golden Fang Casino--In Between;

After the night of the grand opening, I realized I missed the beautiful casino. After a day of hunting, or running shop and being tired, I have since come to the casino and enjoyed the quiet ambience when the casino is not having an event. The casino is always open and always feels inviting. You can stop there anytime and play their slot machines, or go to the bar to relax. I bring friends when we are weary and would like to just sit and chat awhile with drinks. The dark lighting is perfect when you are tired and just wish to unwind, and I find myself often relaxing there.

On nights when the casino has dealers working, I enter and am greeted oftentimes by Jack, or other dealers. Jack is my favorite dealer though. He has a great sense of humor, and has laughed when I have even thrown pies in his face for beating me at a hand. He is definitely the classic dealer that will greet you as if you are a regular and be happy to listen to your woes or glories.

Last Friday night, some friends and I stopped by the casino, and were greeted by some of the staff there. They were preparing for the next day’s event. The guys were in for a sweet surprise, as Nikki was rehearsing her dances, and put on a special show for them. We all had a blast, and were excited and anticipating the next day’s opening of the new nightclub.

Part III-Review of the Golden Fang Casino--The nightclub addition;

Last night at the Golden Fang Casino, was a blast. Unfortunately I arrived late, and missed the chicken fights. Although, I heard that it was as exciting as ever! Jack greeted me warmly, and we gambled a few hands until the nightclub section was opened. We all moved to the nightclub, where we all ate dinner and drank fine wine. Then, we moved on upstairs to the showroom. I would say it did get out of hand a bit. Everyone was having such fun, and patrons wanted to join in on the stage show themselves! There was tons of dancing and everyone was jovial. I did get to see another side of many people that I had never seen before (I’m not talking about just personality either! *Grins*) .

After everyone was partied out, we went back to the Casino, and did more gambling. It was very exciting for me, because with Jack’s encouragement, I went after collecting my “High Roller’s Pieces”. I received THREE pieces in one night!!! Despite three times, each time I had a ceremony and was made to feel very special. Hopefully I can obtain my next three pieces next weekend, and become a legendary high roller!
We ended the night back at the nightclub, where Jack asked Ace for a raise, and Ace refused. Jack ended up shooting cannon balls at Ace. Maybe Ace will think twice before refusing his employees a raise next time…
Thank You Decadence for such a nice review.
