Item 4.  Changes In Registrant's Certifying Accountant

     On December 4, 2002, the Registrant selected PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. as
the principal  independent  accountant for its subsidiary Century Casinos Africa
(Proprietary) Limited.

     Grant  Thornton  Kessel   Feinstein,   a  member  firm  of  Grant  Thornton
International,  (the  "Former  Auditor")  was the  previous  auditor for Century
Casinos  Africa  (Proprietary)  Limited.  Grant Thornton LLP continues to be the
principal independent accountant for the Registrant.

     Registrant  had no  disagreements  with the  Former  Auditor  that,  if not
resolved would have caused the Former Auditor to report the disagreement.

     There has been no adverse  opinion,  disclaimer  of opinion,  or  qualified
opinion in the Former Auditor's report for any of the preceding two years.

     The decision to change  accountants  was approved by the Audit Committee of
the Board of Directors.
