Theme
Microgaming have managed to create a bright and colourful game with Football Star, and through the use of graphics combined with the sound effects and music it feels like the carnival atmosphere of a big football match such as a cup final or a World cup game.The football characters on the reels have a similarity to some real life top players such as Real Madrid striker Cristiano Ronaldo and Italy forward Mario Balotelli. It is quite a lot of fun trying to figure out who the characters are based on.Other symbols used in the game include football related icons such a pair of boots, a referee and a football ground. The game also adds some atmosphere and excitement through the sound effects with a football crowd cheering and celebrating your wins.
Rolling Reels
The rolling reels feature of this slot means that every time you land a combination of winning symbols they will disappear and allow new symbols to drop into their place. This gives you the chance to win again from the same spin and even go on a long sequence of wins from just one spin.
Striking Wild
Striking Wild is a random bonus feature which can be triggered at any point during play. This bonus guarantees you a win by turning one of the middle three reels wild. The reels keep spinning until you find a win.
Free spins
To activate the Free Spins feature players need to land between three and five of the scatter symbols on the reels at the same time. The number of free spins you get relates to how many symbols you find – find three and get 15 free spins, find four and you’ll get 20, while if you find all five scatter symbols at the same time you’ll get 25 free spins.
Verdict
Football Star is an absolute scorcher of a slot and one that comes with a seriously lively atmosphere. Hold your nerve and you can bag yourself a winning goal in the way of a big win.
