Playtech released a new game recently called Lakshmi Gold and has since pulled it out of their slot assortment. Why?Because the game was based around the Hindu religion and many who follow the religion found it offensive.Holy symbols, a cow and Gods of the Hindu's were some of the graphics in the game and according to Rajan Zed who runs a Hindu chapel in Las Vegas, Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Ganesh were meant to be worshiped in temples or home shrines and not for promoting gambling on an online slot for mercantile greed of an online gaming company, .Calvin Ayre, the founder of Bodog has said that he did not believe that online casino software providers would create games with distinct Jewish, Christian or Muslim symbols, and therefore the same rules should apply to the Hindu religion. Bottom line, we know the well of slot themes has been drained nearly dry, but some ideas deserve staying in the bucket, he said.
