Football Stars

About the football Star slot machine

Soccer! The gorgeous game! The chess of the green grass! As I write this review, the World Cup in Brazil is just around the corner, but on the other hand, isn't soccer always in season? So lace up your best soccer cleats, don your shin guards, and let's go! Soccer Star is a brand new and mint-fresh slot game from the developer that calls itself Microgaming. Here, the soccer theme is taken to its absolute apotheosis, with vibrant graphics that have images that seem to move, and which burst into color after every routine win, and the absolute stars of the game—goals scored—are the scene-stealers. And to think what the scene stealers could do if “the game” had a budget.

The video slot Football Star is built with 5 reels and 3 rows. There are no standard paylines that you have to follow to get a win. Instead, you use the increasingly common pay system known as "profit paths." This simply means that, to win, you need to line up matching symbols, but you can do that on adjacent reels rather than on any just particular line. And even though the calculations for the number of ways to win are done using combinatorial mathematics and factorials, the creators of the game make it easier for players to understand by saying that there are 243 ways to win with each spin.

Symbols and functions

Wild symbols The symbol for Modern slots is now a permanent feature—this one is a joker. It’s the Football Star slot machine, done by Microgaming, and this is a wild hit that fills its five reels with over 40 untamed symbols. In addition, the wilds on this game are what the industry refers to as stacked, meaning multiple wilds can be together on a particular reel, and also in this FiF (Football in Five reels) game by Microgaming, those wilds can simultaneously cover an entire reel. Wilds covering an entire reel makes for some pretty wild action.

A "Striking Wilds" function is also present, randomly triggered. When this happens, wilds will cover reels 2, 3, or 4, and winnings are guaranteed.

Scatter symbols Another long-distance runner in the world of video slots is the scatter symbol, which can bring profit completely regardless of the location on the reels. In Football Star, 3 or more scatters anywhere on the screen bring profit. In addition, 15, 20 or 25 free spins are then triggered.

Free spins can be accompanied by Rolling Reels. When any win occurs, the reels keep spinning, making it possible to cascade wins from a single spin in several different directions. If that weren't enough, wins during free spins can be multiplied by up to ten times!

Summary

Football Star is a nice addition to our collection of slots, having a lovely football theme with awesome animations and sound effects coupled with wins up to $105,000. It is most suitable for players with an interest in football, but there is absolutely syfy in playing if you’re not a gridiron groupie. So load up, do some sweet spins on it when you’re jonesing for the World Cup, and for whatever reason, play Football Star.
