General Comments: This casino uses software by Odds On and is owned by the same company that owns English Harbour Casino, which was until recently Microgaming-powered. Apparently, when they switched software companies, they began this all-slots, only-slots casino. While we don't spend a lot of time at the slots around here, a reader asked me if I'd give this casino a look and, it probably goes without saying that slot machines are the most popular games in brick-and-mortar casinos, so I'm happy to oblige. I must mention that I tested this casino only in the play-money mode and my analysis is based upon that.
If slots are not your passion, you needn't go here, because slots are the only games they offer. If slots are your passion, but you live in Denmark, you can't play here, either. That's sad. I hope the Danes are going to bring this up at the United Nations soon. I like this software and all of the machines function very well. But, they are slots…
Recommendations: There is no way for anyone to evaluate the long-term payout rate on a slot machine, so the casino should consider having an audit done by a third party to show just what the payout percentages are on their various machines. Also, the minimum coin size is $.50 and that's a bit rich for most players.

Games Analysis
(All this information was correct on the date listed above)
Slot Machines: At the current time, there are at least 25 different slot machines available, so I've grouped them by type.
Non-progressive slots: These have a fixed jackpot and all are available in $.50, $1, $5 and $10 denominations. The most common are those with three reels and one payline that take up to three coins per bet. They are: Mango Mania, Hot Chilis, Whiskey Barrels, Fruit Slots, Luxury Liner, Island Hoppers, Bluebeard's Bounty, Gold Rush, El Dorado, Swept Away and Beach Party. Other than the symbols, these games are very much the same.
Other slots without a progressive jackpot are:
Quick Draw - This machine has 3 reels, 3 paylines and takes up to 4 coins per bet.
Coral Reef - This is a machine with 3 reels, 4 paylines and takes up to 4 coins per spin.
Sunken Ship - Basically a "clone" of Coral Reef, this has 3 reels, 4 paylines and will take up to 4 coins per spin.
Winning Waves - With 5 paylines and 3 reels, this machine accepts a bet of up to 5 coins.
Queen of Hearts - With this machine, you'll find 3 reels, 4 paylines and it takes a bet of up to 4 coins.
Setting Suns - This is a game with 3 reels and 5 paylines that takes a bet of up to 5 coins.
Island Gold - With 5 reels and 5 paylines, this game accepts a bet of up to 5 coins.
Take the Helm - This machine also has 5 reels, 5 paylines and accepts a bet of up to 5 coins.
Klondike Fever
Gladiator's Gold
Slots With Progressive Jackpots:
All of these slots have 3 reels and a jackpot that requires a 3-coin bet. Each uses a different denomination and the jackpot varies in size, accordingly.
Win, Place or Show - A $.50 coin is used.
Pay Dirt - A $1.00 coin is used.
Mega Money Mine - A $1.50 coin is used.
Treasure Trail - A $2.00 coin is used.
Red, White and Blue - A $2.50 coin is used.
Summary and Rating of Super Slots Casino: If you like the slots, this might be a good place to try, but I'd feel more comfortable in saying that if they offered some sort of auditor's report on the percentage payouts. I fully understand that brick-and-mortar casinos don't do that on a machine-by-machine basis, but most of then operate under laws that require some minimum payback percentage, but that's not the case with Internet casinos. However, a company that has developed a good reputation in the online gambling scene owns this casino, so that's certainly worth something. I am no fan of slot playing, but if I had to pick a spot to do it, this would be on my "shortlist". I'm happy to give Super Slots a rating of 83 points.
