Online slots games come with different themes. However keno games at online casinos have a similar appearance. Therefore a thematic keno game was a welcome offering. To make things better it had a football theme. Football events are running all the year round and football themed online slots and promotions at online casinos are very popular. Therefore it is hardly surprising that Football Keno Progressive has gone from strength to strength since its release last year.

The basic structure of the keno game does not change because of the football theme. The grid still has 80 numbers, players still mark up to 15 numbers and 20 balls are drawn randomly in each game. But the influence of football is apparent in the graphics. The grid is the usual 10 x 8 but arranged horizontally. It is laid out against a football field with half the grid in each half of the field. Before marking the numbers the player has to select a jersey color. When the player clicks on a number to mark it a jersey bearing the number is displayed in the grid. This is just like the numbered jerseys that football players wear. Players can mark the numbers on the grid randomly or according to any pattern they choose. Because it is a football themed keno game they can even create football team formations.

The balls drawn from the cage are crafted like footballs with the usual black and white patterns. The difference is that they have the numbers printed on them. As the balls roll into the slots tiny footballs appear in the corresponding cells on the grid. If these happen to be the marked cells containing the jerseys then the background color changes from green to yellow. Another football themed touch is that when the game is over the sound of the spectators cheering is heard.

As it name suggests this keno variant has a progressive jackpot. However in order to vie for the progressive jackpot players have to wager with real money and have to mark the maximum 15 numbers. Then if the players match of 12 or more numbers they will win a share of the progressive jackpot. The percent of the total jackpot won depends on the amount wagered and the multiplier for the number of matches.

The Reset button allows players to change the pattern. The payouts are shown on a table to the right of a screen. These are absolute payouts and change with the amount wagered and the number of cells marked on the grid. When the game is over the payout achieved by the player is highlighted on the table.
