A fable is a literary genre in which animals are given human characteristics and which generally end with a moral. Aesop was a legendary Greek story teller who immortalized the fable 500 years before the birth of Christ. One of his most famous fables is the Hare and the Tortoise. Online casino software providers also offer slots games in which animals take on human roles, though the moral part is missing. Microgaming has plenty of such online slots in its portfolio. These can be played at online casinos like Spin Palace, Golden Riviera, Platinum Play, River Belle and All Slots. This article reviews some such fable themed online slots.
