The beginning of August means a lot of things. For some it means back-to-school shopping. For others it means football minicamp. For others it means “wow, it’s going to get even hotter?” Still others think of August as the time they usually get hit by hurricanes. Some (though few) associate August with my birthday. None of those have anything to do with the slot tournament at Go Casino, which is good, because with the exception of football, all of those were bad things.

You can always count on Go Casino to have some good casino tournament going on. You know those people who will hold a party to celebrate basically anything? Go Casino is kind of that way. Therefore, they’re really excited about August and are holding the August Kickoff $15,000 Guaranteed tournament. The slot tournament began yesterday, August 1, and runs through Friday, August 6, ending at 8:00 PM.

The August Kickoff slot tournament has an entry fee of $8.99, which buys you 300 credits with which to wager. If you run out of credits and want to buy more, you can re-buy for an additional $8.99. As the name indicates, this slot tournament has a $15,000 prize pool in guaranteed money.

The August Kickoff slot tournament is played on the Butterflies game. That online casinos slot has a bright, colorful theme that can easily be associated with the summer. The Butterflies slot is a 5-reel, 25-payline video slot featuring butterflies, caterpillars, flowers, mushrooms and other things you associate with the nature found in a field.

To take part in the August Kickoff $15,000 Guaranteed tournament, visit Go Casino.

Sloto’ Cash Casino is welcoming you “all aboard” their new online slot from Rival Gaming. The game is called All Aboard and it has a railroad theme. Most boys grow up being fascinated by trains, play with a toy train set in the living room and are excited the first time they get to ride one. Not me. Still, for most guys, playing this game would bring back nostalgia for that time of innocence, when you were thrilled with the sound of a train whistle and the chug, chug, chugging of the engine.

The All Aboard slot is based on old, classic trains. There are no electric trains or high-speed rails here. A light rail? I don’t think so. These are old-fashioned coal-powered trains that make a lot of noise and take a good 20 minutes to get from zero to 60. The All Aboard slot has symbols of the locomotive, caboose and other parts of the train, along with a whistle, railroad crossing sign, train station bell and more. Adding to the ambience of this online slot is the soundtrack, which features sounds of a running train, warning bell, whistle and more.
All Aboard is a 5-reel, 20-payline online slot that can be played in denominations ranging from $0.01 to $0.25 per line. That means players can bet from one penny to $50 on each spin. The more you bet, the more you win when you get winning combinations, but of course you also lose more on the losing spins.

The All Aboard slot has some good bonuses, including free spin bonuses, were you can win 10, 20 or 40 free spins. More good news is that during your free spins, your winnings are multiplied by two, three or four times.

The online slot also has a bonus game called the Bell Bonus. This feature is unlocked by getting three or more warning bells on the reels during one of your spins. When that happens, you are taken to a second screen, where you are shown a train with nine boxcars. Eight of the boxcars an unknown number of credits inside, but one of them is empty. You then choose the boxcars one at a time and receive whatever bonus is inside. As soon as you choose the empty car, though, the bonus game is over.

If you’re one of those people who played with a toy train set as a kid, you will probably love this new online slot from Rival. It has all the sights and sounds of the railroad and some pretty good bonuses to go with it. The All Aboard slot can be found at Sloto’ Cash Casino.

Daytona Gold is a new online slot designed from Top Game and it’s sure to thrill NASCAR fans everywhere. For those not in the know, the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) is the most popular auto racing league in the United States. In NASCAR, there is no track bigger than Daytona, nestled in the Spring Break hotspot that is Daytona Beach, Florida. Each year, Daytona International Speedway hosts two NASCAR races, the Daytona 500 in February and the Coke Zero (previously Pepsi) 400 in July. The Daytona 500 is nicknamed the “Super Bowl of motorsports” and is the biggest race in the circuit.

Now that the background is out of the way, the Daytona Gold slot that tries to capture the event of auto racing. It features symbols of race trucks and cars, a gear shift, keys, the car’s steering wheel and more. The online slot has a background that shows checkered flags at the top of the screen and a car’s dashboard at the bottom.

The Daytona Gold slot is a 5-reel, 15-payline video slot that can be played in denominations ranging from $0.01 to $5 per line. The slot has a jackpot of 12,000 coins. Unfortunately, the game doesn’t offer a multiplier bonus, but it does offer up to 10 free spins.

In the bonus game, you act as the pit crew or maybe even owner of the race car. It’s your job to customize the car and make it into the best racing machine possible. First you have to choose the motor. In the second part, you choose the correct tires for the car. In the third part of the bonus, you choose the paint and then finally you gas up the car. Each selection you make gives you a certain number of bonus points.

Daytona Beach is known for a lot of things, but most of them are bad. It’s known for bad drivers, a large homeless population, a high crime rate, a high rate of drug addiction and disease, and during Spring Break and other special events, a high rate of traffic fatalities, DUI arrests and property damage. The city is also known for its famous race track, which is immortalized in this online slot.

The Daytona Gold slot does a good job of recreating a racing atmosphere while keeping the racing action itself generic and not NASCAR-specific (since other circuits race there as well).
The Daytona Gold slot can be found at Rome Casino.

Microgaming has released three new online slots. One of them, which I already reviewed, is the Lion’s Pride slot. While that slot offers a lot for nature lovers, Argyle Open is a new online slot geared toward sports fans.

I don’t consider myself a gold aficionado, but I did play it when I was a kid. Okay, it was mostly miniature golf, but my dad let me swing the big clubs sometimes, too. We also had a driving range near the house that I got to play at after school.

Anyway, the Argyle Open slot brings back memories of playing golf in my youth and does a good job of portraying a fictional major golf tournament. The slot’s background shows a pristine view, with a landscaped golf course seen under a clear blue sky. The Argyle Open slot features symbols of the crest and logo of the tournament (and thus, the game). It also has symbols of different golfers in different well-known poses. There is one chipping a ball out of a sand trap. There is another golfer celebrating making a put. The slot also has symbols that are close-ups of a golfer’s cleats, the golf bag, and the flag at the hole.

Argyle Open is a 5-reel, 40-payline video slot that features some good bonuses, such as up to 20 free spins and a multiplier bonus. What I like best about this online slot, though, are the bonus games.

There are three different bonus games in this online slot and they all relate to the game of golf. There is a Drive Bonus, where you drive the ball off the tee and hit it as far as you can. The farther it goes, the more bonus points you get. There is also a Fairway Bonus, where you hit the ball on the fairway as far as you can and as close to the hole as you can. You get points for how far the ball travels. Lastly, there is the Putt Bonus, which is a take on my favorite part of the game. In this bonus, you putt the ball and try to get it in the hole. You are rewarded more points for getting it closer to the hole, with the most possible points reserved for actually sinking the putt.

I’ve played golf video games on the Wii and over gaming consoles and to be honest, the bonus games on this online slot are just as much fun. Sure, they’re not as fun as playing the game for real, but at least you won’t get a sunburn this way.

The Argyle Open slot brings all of the fun of a major golf tournament to your home and combines it with exciting online slot action. The game can be found at Roxy Palace Casino.

If you’re a frequent quest to my little space on the Interwebs, then you know that I am fascinated by monkeys. Most of my favorite online slots have monkey themes, either a space money, or a funky monkey or a monkey in a band or just an ordinary monkey. If it has a monkey, I probably like it. I’m glued to the National Geographic show about the macaques and I’m one of the few people – aside from Jack Johnson – who actually liked the Curious George movie.

Well, someone just informed me that face cards in baccarat are called monkeys. Players will sometimes yell “monkey, monkey” when they hope the dealer draws a face card. That got me to thinking about a new online slot I’d love to play. I would call it Monkey Monkey Baccarat.

This online slot features actual monkeys playing the game of baccarat. I don’t know a whole lot about the game of baccarat, but I know that it involves a big paddle, so I can imagine a lot of dangerous situations with the monkeys in possession of that weapon. It would be like a fraternity hazing, but worse, and it would somehow involve playing cards.

The bonus games for this slot can involve playing hands of baccarat, which might be confusing to some people, but the game will tell you whether or not you’ve won, so you don’t really need to understand it. That’s kind of how I go about playing poker anyway. “Oh, my hand won? Cool! I guess I had a good hand.”

The online slot could have symbols of various monkeys in expensive suits – because baccarat is a high-class game – playing the game. Or better yet, they could be wearing tuxedos, because those are sometimes called “monkey suits.”

A Monkey Monkey Baccarat slot should also incorporate famous baccarat scenes, such as scenes from James Bond and A Hard Day’s Night, with monkeys playing the parts of 007 and the Beatles. As with my other slot requests, I hope that the software designers stumble across this post and are inspired by my idea. Maybe they’ll even let me help design the game.

Any online casino that provides a slot like that will definitely get my business. For now, though, I can only dream of a Monkey Monkey Baccarat slot.

All Slots Casino has released a few new online slots and they are all exciting and well-made. My favorite is the Lion’s Pride slot. Partly that’s because I love to spend the day watching Animal Planet and the Discovery Channel, watching the wild animals in their native environment. It’s incredibly interesting and entertaining to me.

The Lion’s Pride slot is set in Africa and has a very African look and feel. The background depicts the African plains during sunset and the slot uses earthy hues. The online slot features symbols of various creatures of the African plains, including a male lion, a lioness, a zebra, an antelope and more.

The Lion’s Pride slot has a jackpot of 12,500 coins on normal spins and up to 125,000 coins on free spins (due to the multiplier bonus that accompanies them). The online slot offers a good number of bonuses, such as up to 25 free spins and multipliers of up to 10 times the reward.

I’ve always wanted to go on an African safari, but I tend to get sick when I travel, even if it’s not to a place heavy with malaria and other diseases. For that reason, I enjoy Africa on the TV and with online slots such as this one.

The Lion’s Pride slot has excellent graphics and animation. Each of the animals looks lifelike and the background of the plains at sundown is simply beautiful. To play the Lion’s Pride online slot, visit All Slots Casino.

“La Cucaracha” was a favorite childhood song of mine, which is odd, since I didn’t speak Spanish. However, despite the language barrier, I loved the song as soon as I learned it was a children’s song about a cockroach. I still don’t really know what the song is about, but it really doesn’t matter.

The La Cucaracha slot may or may not follow along with the story of the song. Someone who knows the song and understands Spanish would be a better judge of that than me. However, I can tell you that it is a slot with a Mexican theme and is fun to play.

The new online slot at Online Vegas features symbols that you associate with Mexico and funny children’s songs about Mexican roaches. The La Cucaracha slot has a symbol of a guitar-playing cockroach, an angry red hot chili pepper (not the band), a cactus, tacos and more. Each object is made human-like (yes, that means the game has a taco with eyes and a mouth – now I’m not hungry anymore).

La Cucaracha is a 5-reel, 20-payline slot that has a 5,000-coin jackpot. It has a variety of bonuses, such as up to 10 free spins. During those free spins, all winnings are tripled. Adding to the cartoonish Mexican atmosphere, if you have the audio on while playing this slot (I know many people play them on mute) then you will hear some Mexican songs. Yes, that includes the title track.

The La Cucaracha slot has a second-screen bonus feature, where players are at a fair. There are many chili peppers on display and the player must choose from them. The goal is to get the spiciest peppers, because they have the largest bonus.

Probably my favorite thing about the La Cucaracha slot is that it doesn’t really have a whole lot to do with cucarachas. That’s good, because roaches are disgusting and are only good when on the bottom of my shoe.

To play the La Cucaracha slot, visit Online Vegas Casino.

There are a lot of superstitious online slot players out there. It makes sense. Since it is a game of chance rather than luck, players will try anything to get luck on their side. Rubbing a lucky rabbit’s foot, tossing salt over their shoulder or counting to their lucky number when spinning may seem pointless, but anytime they win, it seems brilliant.

Sloto’ Cash Casino’s new online slot – Best of Luck – takes aim at the superstitious slot players. It features symbols of traditional good-luck charms, such as a horse shoe, shamrock, a lucky penny, a wishbone, an acorn and more. Honestly, I’ve never heard that acorns are lucky. I find them annoying when I step on them in my yard. For some online slot players, though, they’re necessary for winning. It may seem silly, but is it any worse than a playoff beard?

There are a couple cool animations in the game. If used in a winning combination, the lucky penny will be flipped and the wishbone will be split. None of the other symbols are animated, though.

Best of Luck is a 5-reel, 20-payline slot that can be played in denominations of $0.01, $0.10 or $0.25 per line. It has a jackpot of 10,000 coins and five different bonus rounds, meaning there is plenty of stuff to win using these lucky charms.

The online slot has free spin rounds activated by the scatter symbol of a bag of gems. During the free spins, all winnings are doubled. The Best of Luck slot is designed by Rival Gaming, the Cyprus company known for innovative games with great animations and graphics. In this game, there is nothing spectacular about the presentation, but the clever theme should attract some superstitious players (and the players who love to mock the superstitious).

To play the Best of Luck slot, visit Sloto’ Cash Casino.

Fantasy and online slots have always seemed to go together. Thunderstruck and its sequel are two of the most popular slots right now. There are also slots based on fairy tales, the Clash of the Titans, and other works of fantasy.

One popular work of fantasy that has been constantly retold is the tale of Arabian Nights. The story about some guy finding a magic lamp with a wish-granting genie has made it in popular culture thanks in part to Disney’s Aladdin. One of my favorite parts of this story is the magical flying carpet. An online slot at Online Vegas Casino is themed after that story, with an emphasis on the carpet.

Well, you don’t know what we can find on the Magic Carpet slot (I apologize to Steppenwolf). This online casino slot, designed by Vegas Technology, has a background of a moonlit Arabian night, with a flying carpet in the foreground. The online slot has symbols of the flying carpet, Aladdin, the genie, Princess Jasmine, gold coins and more.

Magic Carpet is a 5-reel, 25-payline video slot that can be played in denominations ranging from $0.01 to $10 per line. It has a jackpot of 4,000 coins, which where Aladdin lived would be enough to retire with. There is not second-screen bonus game, but there are plenty of free-spin bonuses to go around. Getting free spins seems like the kind of wish you’d ask the genie for (if you were a slots addict) and you can get them here. In the game you can win up to 15 free spins.

The Magic Carpet slot has excellent animation and graphics. In fact, too me it looks just as good as the Disney movie. When playing the slot, you can easily drift into a dream, close your eyes, and let the sound take you away (sorry again to Steppenwolf).

Summer is here and I, for one, am excited. Not even the prospect of hurricane season being upon us can dull my love for the summer. It’s a time when it is expected to be lazy and walk around in a bathing suit and flip flops all day, drinking margaritas on the beach. You can put away your jeans and switch to shorts. It’s a time when you can relax in the warm summer sun.

Of course, where I live it feels like summer all year long, or at least it did until we went through uncharacteristically cold years the last few years. For everyone else, though, summer lets you escape, relax and enjoy your leisure time.

For that reason, I decided to play the Beach Babes slot at Platinum Play Casino. This is one of my favorite online slots because it combines two of my favorite things: beaches and babes. It’s a combo that’s hard to resist, kind of like the snack food Combos, but that’s another topic. Oh, the game also involves online slots, which is another love of mine.

The Beach Babes slot is set on a beach and has a background of sand, clear blue water, umbrellas, palm trees and a blue sky. It is a vision of paradise. The slot features symbols of a various women in bikinis. The group includes a Hawaiian-looking girl with a flower in her hair and holding a surfboard, a buxom blonde with a beach ball and a redhead with a snorkel and mask. For the women, there is also a buff male lifeguard, so it’s not all babes in bikinis, though that’s mostly what the game is (did I mention that I love this game?).

Beach Babes is a 5-reel, 25-payline video slot that can be played in denominations ranging from $0.01 to $0.25 per line. It has a 10,000-coin jackpot, which makes it a game that can be lucrative. The game looks good because, well, I already mentioned the babes in bikinis, right?

The Beach Babes slot also has a gamble feature. Every time you win money you have the option of either keeping it or risking it with a chance to increase your winnings. The gamble game is the standard card game, where a card is dealt face down and you can either try to guess the color (red, black) to double your winnings or the suit (diamonds, hearts, clubs, spades) to quadruple your winnings.

If you’re stuck at home or in the office and can’t either make it to the beach or watch some Travel Channel show on the best beaches, playing this game is the next best thing. To play the Beach Babes slot, visit Platinum Play Casino today.
