Gambling in America has come to be associated with Indians, Native Americans, or whatever we’re supposed to be calling them. You know who I mean. Many Indian (Native American?) reservations have casinos and the Seminole tribe in particular is filthy rich because of it. Maybe that’s why Vegas Technology has released a new online slot with an Indian theme, which can be found at English Harbour Casino.

The new slot, called Fire Hawk, is set in America’s Old West (it looks kind of like Utah, to be honest). The game features symbols of a chief, a female Indian, drums, a ceremonial pipe, and an actual flaming hawk. I guess the Fire Hawk is supposed to be a spiritual guide animal or something like that. The chief is the wild symbol and the Fire Hawk is the scatter symbol. There is also a cool animation of a tribal war dance.

The game is a 5-reel, 25-payline online slot that can be played using coins ranging from $.01 to $10. The maximum bet is $250 and the jackpot is 6,000 coins. The game has several bonuses, such as multiplier of two, five and ten times the bet and a bonus of 20 free spins. There is no interactive bonus game, though.

The game has a bit of a cartoonish look, but the background is a gorgeous picture of a sunset in the Old West. Though the game could be considered playing upon clichés of Native Americans (Indians?), I find it to be neither offensive nor exploitative. Instead, I think it’s simply looking back at a historical time, just as with cowboy-themed slots or slots about medieval times.

To play the new online slot or any other fun game, stop by English Harbour casino.
