Online poker in Kazakhstan, free and with no money involved: Anubis City is a browser game where real people sit down to Texas Hold’em, bingo, roulette, blackjack and slots in a pixel-art Egyptian city on the Nile. It runs on a computer or a phone with no download and no sign-up, in English, Russian or Ukrainian.

There is no Kazakh version yet. If you are an expat in Almaty or Astana, English covers everything; if your friends prefer Russian, each player picks their own language and you still sit at the same table.

This page shows the players who chose Kazakhstan in their profile — their hands this week, the biggest pot, the roulette number they back most and the weekly top. Online gambling sites are banned in Kazakhstan; Anubis City is not one of them, because there is no money in it at all (see the legal section below).

Play online poker with players from Kazakhstan

No-Limit Hold’em at five- and nine-seat tables, with blinds of 50/100, 500/1,000 or 5,000/10,000. The Temple of Fortune hall lists every open table and who is sitting there, so you can join people you know or press “Quick game”. Empty seats go to opponents marked “AI”, who never see your cards.

A tip for your first evening: sit at the Scribes’ Table and buy in for 100 big blinds — 10,000 of your starting 100,000 debens. That leaves room for mistakes and a rebuy. More on the poker page and in our hand rankings.

Online bingo in Kazakhstan

75-ball bingo in the Hall of Seshat is the calmest game in town: buy a card and the server draws the balls. AUTO halls mark the numbers for you; MANUAL halls need attention — a false “BINGO!” rests your button for 5, then 10, then 20 seconds. Up to 40 players share a hall, and a twin hall opens when it fills up. Our bingo rules.

Roulette and blackjack with a shared wheel

European roulette in the Rotunda of Shai spins on a schedule: a round takes about half a minute and the wheel is shared by the whole table. You can sit down without debens just to watch.

Blackjack in the Hall of Thoth uses six decks and five boxes. When fewer than three people are seated, “AI” players fill the boxes and leave as soon as people arrive. The tables are named after places where Thoth was worshipped — Khemenu, Tuna, Saqqara.

Free slots for short breaks

The Treasury of Ra has three machines: Sevens of Ra (three reels, five lines), Book of Thoth (ten free spins with an expanding symbol) and Treasures of Horus (Hold & Win with a GRAND jackpot of 1,000 bets). Autoplay and turbo are there when you want them. See all three.

This week’s top players from Kazakhstan

The top counts experience earned this week — hands (games against AI count too), daily visits, Ra’s Boat and chat — for the country and city in your profile at the time. Only in-game names appear, and only for players who chose to show their place.

The weekly top is shown when at least five players from here have chosen to show their place.

Poker in Almaty, Astana and other cities

The city search knows old names as well as new ones: “Alma-Ata” finds Almaty, and “Nur-Sultan” or “Akmola” finds Astana. Below are the cities in Kazakhstan that already have players.

How to start playing in Kazakhstan

  1. Open the game in your browser and enter as a guest. Later, save your character with an email and a password to play on any device and get 500,000 debens.
  2. Your profile has a My city line. The connection suggests the country; find your city by name, or keep “Country only”.
  3. Walk to the Temple of Fortune on the right of the square and take a seat — or open your own table and send friends the code.

Questions

Is online gambling legal in Kazakhstan?

No — the law bans online gambling venues, meaning games with a money stake and a prize. Anubis City has no money at all: debens cannot be bought or cashed out, so as we understand it, it is a social game.

Is there a Kazakh version?

Not yet. The game is in English, Russian and Ukrainian, and each player picks their own language.

Can I play on a phone in Kazakhstan?

Yes, in Chrome or Safari on your phone. The table and buttons adapt to small screens; there is no app to install.

How do I play with a friend in another city?

A saved character can open a private table in the Temple of Fortune and send the friend a six-character code or a link. They can join even as a guest.
