After an uninspiring first effort and a much improved second, everyone’s favourite cartoon troll, Hugo, is back for the third instalment in Play’n Go’s new slot Hugo Goal.Timed to coincide with the hugely anticipated 2018 FIFA World Cup, Hugo Goal allows players to play a football match with a fairytale twist.
About the slot
With three reels and 5 fixed paylines, Hugo Goal is playable from 5p to £100 a spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices, and has a classic feel to the reel set combined with a modern design.Boots, flags, whistles, and other football related paraphernalia appear as symbols on the reels alongside four character, Afskylia, Don Croco, the Goat, and Hugo himself who plays the wild symbol and will replace all other symbols, as well as paying out 80x your bet for three on a payline.The design here is charming, a cartoon style football pitch in keeping with the artwork that has made Hugo such a phenomenon for so long in certain parts of the world.
Gameplay
Often, three-reel slots are somewhat limited when it comes to features, but that is not the case with Hugo Goal.The Action Replay feature triggers randomly if two fully stacked character symbols appear on the reels during a non-winning spin, the unstacked reels then respin until a winning combination is formed, creating a guaranteed win situation.The big feature here is the Penalty Shoot-Out, which triggers when all symbols positions show the same symbol.You play as Hugo, attempting to save as many penalties as you can out of five. The multiplier builds up as you save goals, from 2x, to 3x, to 4x, to 5x, and then all the way up to 10x if you save all five.A fun slot with great features, Hugo Goal is a good way for the troll to make his slot game hat-trick!
