Till such games arrive online casino players can prepare for the Olympic Games on some of the existing slot machines. This article reviews two of the best. The online casino software provider Playtech has a slot machine titled Golden Games. The 25 payline slot machine opens to a jam-packed stadium with a fireworks display. The high paying symbols depict accessories used in the various Olympic sports. These include the stop watch used in athletics, the tennis racket, the basketball and the weights in weightlifting. These exhibit animations like the basketball being thrown in the hoop and a tennis ball being bounced on the racket. For the lower paying symbols, the customary card icons have been replaced by sports logos crafted in gold. The sports covered are cycling, boxing, fencing, athletics and swimming. Playtech Golden Games has three special symbols. The Golden Games logo is the wild symbol. It also offers the jackpot line payout of 10,000 coins.

In this slot game players have to enable all 25 paylines and wager a total bet of $1 by default. The thematic symbols are the athlete, the cyclist, the swimmer and the Olympics stadium. The line payouts for these are on the higher side as compared to other online slots and this is an attraction for players who like volatility. The playing card icons are draped in gold medals in keeping with the Olympics theme. The wild symbol is the set of gold, silver and bronze medals. It offers a jackpot line payout of 10,000 coins.
