About
Backroom Casino is a 1–4 player casino management and open-world sandbox where you start with little more than a rundown basement, a battered van and an ambition to build something bigger. Furnish your first gambling room, hunt down used equipment, manage cash and casino chips, serve customers and keep the operation running night after night. As the money starts coming in, hire staff, automate parts of the business, acquire new properties and work your way towards increasingly ambitious venues. But running the casino is only part of the journey. Backroom Casino is being built around a living city where your business, vehicles, properties and personal progression exist in the same world. Play solo or build the operation together with up to three friends. Start small. Build an empire.
Features
Build Your Casino
Place tables, slot machines, bars, storage and furniture to turn empty spaces into functioning gambling venues. Start rough, improve what you have and build increasingly ambitious casinos.
Run the Business
Manage cash, casino chips, equipment, supplies and daily operations. What begins as a hands-on operation can gradually grow into a staffed and managed business.
Casino Games
Operate and play casino games including blackjack, slot machines, poker, baccarat and dice games as your empire expands.
Customers & High Rollers
Attract customers with different needs and behaviours, keep them entertained and build a venue capable of drawing increasingly valuable guests and high rollers.
Hire Staff
Hire dealers and other employees to take over everyday tasks. As the operation grows, managers and staff let you spend less time behind the table and more time building the empire.
Property Progression
Outgrow the basement and move into larger, more prestigious venues. Each step gives you more room, more opportunities and a bigger operation to manage.
Physical Logistics
Equipment and supplies don't magically appear. Use vehicles and storage to move what your business needs through the world.
Day & Night
Time moves through a full day and night cycle. Prepare your business, open the doors, handle the night's customers and close the books when the shift is over.
Open World
Your casinos exist inside a city you can explore rather than on a management screen. Drive between properties, suppliers and opportunities as your operation expands.
Play Solo or Together
Build your empire alone or with up to three friends. Share the same world, run the casino together and decide who handles the tables, logistics, customers — or the inevitable chaos.
