Slots are all the rage today. Nothing compares to the clinking of coins, the flashing of lights, and the ringing of machines, especially when you hit the jackpot. Even better are online slot games, which bring the magic and excitement of playing even closer to you.

However, choosing a game can be difficult since they all have different specificities and gameplay. Here are the top five video slots games on the market.

1) Deal or No Deal
Named after the popular TV game show that ran from 2005 - 2016, this online video slots game goes one better - it is still running. With the TV show, and Noel Edmonds, gone, the game is the only way to recapture the thrill of trying to beat the banker and of winning a progressive jackpot.

But, in this case, you do so by spinning the wheels of a 5-reel and 20-payline slot game. Despite this new format, the game’s audio and gameplay are reminiscent of the original, as are the risks. Likewise, sticking it out to the end increases your chances of winning big or of losing just as big.

2) Frankie Dettori's Magic Seven
This game commemorates one of the greatest moments in UK horse racing history - Frankie Dettori's magic seven win. In 1996, Lanfranco "Frankie" Dettori rode all seven winners of the British Champion's Day held at Ascot. This historic win remains Frankie's greatest sporting achievement, despite winning 500 races and being named the world's best jockey in 2015.

To recapture the events of this memorable day, Playtech has included realistic graphics in its aptly named Frankie Dettori's Magic Seven video slots game. Comprising five reels and 25 paylines, the game also throws in some free spin bonuses and expanding wilds. To win, simply line up at least three symbols in order. However, to win the grand prize, you must line up five Frankie headshots.

3) Jimi Hendrix
Even though Jimi Hendrix, arguably the greatest electric guitarist of all time, died more than three decades ago, his legend still lives on in this video slot game. Net Entertainment, the makers of the game, decided not only to pay tribute to the guitar legend but also to pay you, and all rock fans for that matter, cash for honouring him as well. Well, that is if you spin the reels right, of course. What's more, you get paid while listening to some of Hendrix’s greatest rock hits.

4) Michael Jackson: King of Pop
Jimi Hendrix is not the only music legend with a video slot game to his name. The King of Pop Michael Jackson has one, too. And what a fitting tribute it is. The game, a brainchild of Bally Technologies, even goes by the pop star’s full title, Michael Jackson: The King of Pop.

Better still, Bally went all out to make the game a Thriller. Though you might feel like a Smooth Criminal when you win, do not consider the game to be Bad when you lose. Simply spin some more reels and Moonwalk your way to the grand prize.

5) X-Men
Yes, there are many Marvel video slots out there, but X-Men stands out because of its many bonus rounds and wild gameplay. Better still, it has a multi-level progressive jackpot and a so-called X-Feature that comes with a 5x multiplier.
