There are three general categories of casino games: gaming machines, table games, and random number games. Gaming machines, such as [[slot machine]]s and [[pachinko]], are usually played by one player at a time and do not require the involvement of casino employees. Tables games, such as [[blackjack]] or [[craps]], involve one or more players who are competing against the house (the casino itself) rather than each other. Table games are usually conducted by casino employees known as [[croupier]]s or dealers. Random number games are based on the selection of random numbers, either from a computerized [[random number generator]] or from other gaming equipment. Random number games may be played at a table or through the purchase of paper tickets or cards, such as [[keno]] or [[Bingo (American version)|bingo]].

Some casino games combine multiple of the above aspects; for example, [[roulette]] is a table game conducted by a dealer, that involves random numbers. Casinos may also offer other types of gaming, such as hosting [[poker]] games or tournaments where players compete against each other.
