An Overview of Vela Gaming Software and Reviews of 3 Online Casinos
On this page
Introduction
Vela Gaming, a casino game development company, operates out of Petaling Jaya, Malaysia. Founded in 2019, it aims to tap into the booming Asian gaming market, but there are significant improvements needed. The performance of Vela's software is rather underwhelming, with sluggish games, unfavorable odds, and even unsettling virtual cockfighting experiences. Moreover, it has been observed that the company appears to appropriate logos and copyrighted graphics from other entities, raising the risk of facing legal issues in the future.
Ultimately, Vela Gaming comes across as a low-quality developer that seems to lack effort in many areas. I would advise steering clear of their games for the time being.

Slots
It can hardly be said that Vega Gaming's slot machines are modern. Furthermore, most appear to be re-skinned versions of the same theme. The only positive aspect is that they are an improvement compared to Vela's table games.
Baccarat
The baccarat The game presents standard betting options and payouts. It also features a score board showing all five \"roads.\"
One of the most frustrating aspects of this game is that players must flip over the cards corresponding to the side on which they have placed their bets. This requirement cannot be bypassed, resulting in a pace that feels slower than that of an Atari 2600—quite frustrating for those looking for faster gameplay.
Here's a summary of the payouts and house edge for the various bets available:
- Banker — 0.95 to 1 — 1.06% house edge
- Player — 1 to 1 — 1.24% house edge
- Tie — 8 to 1 — 14.36% house edge
- Player pair — 11 to 1 — 10.36% house edge
- Banker pair — 11 to 1 — 10.36% house edge
Dragon Tiger
The Dragon Tiger The gameplay is as excruciatingly slow as baccarat and requires players to turn over a card unless they choose to bet on the Tie. As is typically the case, the odds for a tie are notoriously low at just 8 to 1. The game does provide a scoreboard showing all five 'roads.' Below are the house edges associated with the three available bets:
- Dragon* — 1 to 1 — 3.73% house edge
- Tiger* — 1 to 1 — 3.73% house edge
- Tie — 8 to 1 — 32.77% house edge**
Footnotes:
*: Ties lose half.
**: Ouch!
Monkey Race
Both Monkey Race and Horse Racing games are straightforward Derby where players can bet on a race involving either six monkeys or horses. There are three betting options:
- Winner of race
- Show — This betting option is incorrectly labeled as a 'place' bet; it actually functions as a show bet. It wins if the selected horse or monkey finishes among the top three. A true place bet should win if the racer finishes in the top two.
- Quinella — This betting option is referred to as a 'pair' bet in the game, but it aligns with the Quinella in the United States, which pays out if the two chosen racers finish first and second, regardless of order.
For the Monkey Race game, the betting layout for the Pair bet incorrectly displays monkeys numbered 7 to 10, who are not part of the race. This appears to be a graphical glitch. The correct numbering should be 2 to 6, allowing for every possible combination of selecting 2 racers out of six.
After conducting some calculations, I found that the return for this game hovers near 88%, depending on the specific payouts available. On one occasion, I made a Pairs bet and received a 4x multiplier, although the reason for this multiplier was unclear, as I found no related mention in the rules. If multipliers are indeed possible, they could potentially elevate the return beyond the 88% mark, but without knowing the average multiplier, I can’t determine the exact impact on player value.
Horse Racing
Horse Racing is essentially a re-skinned version of Monkey Race. Please refer to my analysis of that game for additional details.
Baseball Fever
This page applies to Baseball Fever, Basketball Fever, and Penalty Kick, all of which are similar skins. Each game comprises three rounds of an event that carries a 50% chance of resulting in a win. For instance, in baseball, players will encounter three pitches, with outcomes posing the choice between a strike or a hit. Players can place bets on individual events or combine multiple events in a parlay.
Single event bets yield a payout of 1.95 to 1, translating to a return of 97.5%.
Parlay bets across all three events offer a payout of 7 to 1, leading to a return of 87.5%.
In conclusion, Vela has unfortunately earned the disdain of the Wizard for what appears to be clear cases of logo theft from Major League Baseball, the National Basketball Association, and various teams showcased in these games.
Basketball Fever
Basketball Fever is a derivative of Baseball Fever, focusing on three free throw attempts (is there truly a penalty that grants three?). For additional insights, please consult my section on Baseball Fever.
Penalty King
Basketball Fever is a variation of Baseball Fever that centers around three penalty shots. For further details, please visit my section on Baseball Fever.
Pokemon Fever
It’s a rare occasion for me to express confusion or disinterest in a game, but this one leaves me puzzled and indifferent. The help files provided don't offer much clarity, so you're essentially on your own.
Ding Dong
This game appears to be a version of Pokemon Fever, which I also find perplexing. I'm certain they don't possess the proper rights to the Monopoly man logo, which is a shameful act by Vela. Additionally, contrary to popular belief reflected in this screenshot, the Monopoly man does not wear a monocle.
Safari Hunter
I'm unsure how to categorize this type of game; however, I have encountered similar ones before. The player's shooting of the gun functions as a bet, and winnings are determined by the type of animal hit. No specifics are provided related to odds or returns.
Blue Ocean
Blue Ocean is a re-skinned version of Safari Hunter. For information on that game, refer to my previous section.
Blackjack
The blackjack game accommodates playing up to three hands simultaneously. This is the sole table game by Vela that operates at a relatively decent speed. I would argue that it is their best offering, though that's not saying a lot.
Below is a table that lists the available Blackjack games in alphabetical order.
Roulette
Vela refers to its roulette game as American Roulette, even though it only features one zero. The house edge for every type of bet stands at 2.70%.
