About Us
Wasting Time Since ‘96 – And Proud Of It
Gamesville has been part of the internet since 1996—back when dial-up ruled and fun online gaming was just beginning. We were one of the first to offer free, casual online games with real prizes. And while a lot has changed since then, our mission remains the same: make gaming fun, free, and available to everyone.
Today, Gamesville has evolved into a destination for free online casino games—slots, blackjack, roulette, video poker, and more.
No gimmicks. No sign-ups. Just trying to bring the complete Vegas experience directly to your browser.
A Pioneer In Online Casual Gaming
Founded in 1996, Gamesville was one of the first online communities to offer real-time, multiplayer games.
This was long before smartphones, social media, and broadband were a thing!
The Bingo Zone, our flagship at the time, let hundreds of players compete for cash prizes.
In 1999, Gamesville was acquired by Lycos and grew quickly.
More games were added, and it was built into a loyal online community and a go-to destination for casual players.
