Football Star Slot Review 2024

Football Star

Football Star, a Microgaming designed slot, offers up 5 reels and 243 ways to win. Up to $303,750 can be won as its largest jackpot and with the use of scatter symbols, free games, a multiplier and wilds to help you in that quest.

Taking place on a huge stadium during the 2014 World Cup, Football Star looks like a lot of effort has gone into it. It's themed around the game of football and its high quality symbols will give you many of the elements that are familiar with any fan of this sport. The design style is more cartoon like, so you don't always get what player is supposed to be in a symbol. Among the images that appear here you will find the goalkeeper, referee, football stadium, the red jersey, the shoes, game logo, football and four different images of players in action.

The betting system seems to be fairly typical for Microgaming. Since the ways to win system has the equivalent of 243 paylines, the bets are made instead on the equivalent of 50 lines and that gives you the entire set of reels to play on. There are up to 10 coins used for each line, while the denomination is $0.01 to $0.10. The $1 line bet turns into a $50 maximum bet, while the top payouts are worth $12,500.

The football serves as the scatter feature here and it awards the player a payout of $250 to $12,500, depending on the number of symbols (between 3 and 5 required). The same number of scatters present during the same game will result in spins on top of the usual payout. You get 15 spins for 3 scatters, 20 spins for 4 scatters and 25 spins for 5 scatters. The round of free spins benefits from the Rolling Reels feature that will increase the multiplier to as much as 10 x if you have multiple consecutive rounds with winning combinations in them.

The wild symbol is another important feature in this case, appearing stacked but being limited only to the 3rd, 4th and 5th reels. Since they're stacked you will find that they occupy up to three reel positions when they do show up. Since they don't appear on the first few reels you will find the wild's usefulness to be quite limited in many of the rounds where they appear. Their main role here is to give you bigger payouts in some situations, rather than help you to get smaller combinations on a regular basis.

Football Star is a slot that you shouldn't miss if you're a fan of the Microgaming slots or of football in general.
