Mobile keno: keno games by RTP, how to play and where to play
In keno you pick numbers on a grid, the game draws its own and you are paid by how many match. The table below ranks the keno games we review by the RTP their studios state.
Keno usually returns less than slots or instant games, so compare the stated RTP in the table. It is a slow-burn, low-effort game; choose it for the format, not the odds.

Which keno game should I play?
Pick the highest stated RTP you can find, then a grid that stays readable on your screen. The gap between the keno titles in the table is wider than in most game types, and every point is $1 per $100 bet.
Quick pick and favourite numbers save time but do not change the draw. Keep stakes small: draws repeat quickly and the edge is higher than in slots.

Keno: FAQ
How does mobile keno work?
You pick a set of numbers on a grid, choose a stake and start the draw. The game draws its numbers at random and pays by how many of yours match, according to its paytable.
What keno games can I play on mobile?
The table above lists the keno games we review, including Keno Universe by EGT, Book of Keno by Evoplay, Lootus Keno by Veikkaus and several 1x2 Gaming titles.
What is the RTP of keno?
Usually lower than slots. Book of Keno states 97.01% and Keno Universe 95%; the table above lists the rest. The paytable, and how many numbers you pick, change the return in some versions.
Does picking more numbers improve my odds?
It changes the paytable, not the edge in your favour. More picks mean more possible matches and different payouts; the game's stated RTP is still the long-run return.
Do bonuses apply to keno?
Often only partly, and some casinos exclude keno from wagering. Check the contribution rate, the eligible games and the expiry before you claim.
Is an app or the browser better for keno?
An app repeats draws faster and keeps the grid layout steady; the browser opens at once with no download. Either way, use a stable connection so a draw is not interrupted.
Play only if you are 18+ and it stays fun
Casino play on a phone is quick to start and easy to continue. These four rules apply on every page of this site.
18+ only
Adults only, on every device
A phone is easy to hand to someone else. Lock the casino app or browser tab behind your device PIN or Face ID, and never save card details on a shared phone.
Speed
Short rounds add up
Crash and instant games settle a round in seconds. Set a time limit on the phone (Screen Time on iPhone, Digital Wellbeing on Android) as well as a deposit limit at the casino.
Limits
Use the casino's own tools
Look for deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion in the account menu, and set them before your first deposit, while it is easy.
