Football Frenzy

Football Frenzy is a five reel fifty payline video slot developed by Realtime Gaming in June 2014 celebrating arguably the world’s most popular sport. Played in two different modes, the game contains four rows of symbols, which should improve your winning chances, while Striker Wilds, Free Kick Free Games and highly rewarding Penalty Kick Bonus are some of the special perks and benefits the players can unlock.

As we have already suggested, four rows of game symbols and no less than fifty active paylines are there to ensure players don’t have to wait too long for a winning combination to occur, with three matching icons on a payline starting from the left awarding an instant credit win.

Players are required to choose the gameplay mode between striker and lucky, but you should know this selection will only have an effect on the free spins round, while the game plays exactly the same in all other aspects. Striker Wild appears grouped on reels 1 and 5, substituting for all non-Scatter symbols to complete a winning combination, while also doubling any subsequent prize.

Some players might not enjoy the fact that maximum 50 paylines are fixed, but the good news is coin value starts at $0.01, so you can wager as little as $0.50 per spin. A total of fifteen coin denominations are on offer, all the way up to $5. The total bet amount is displayed below the reels and can be adjusted by using up and down arrows, while the current bet per line is shown in the upper right hand corner.

It is hardly surprising that a progressive jackpot game that contains so many special features does not offer mind-blowing payouts during base play, but the 1,000 coins top payout should come in handy. Football and goalkeeper act as the highest paying symbols, awarding decent rewards when four or five of these are positioned on any payline.

The Realtime Gaming release is packed with references to football, or soccer as some like to call it, which means the reels are populated by game symbols such as striker, stadium, football, goalkeeper, referee, female fan, trophy, football badge, scarf, whistle, glass of beer and football cleats.

Three, four and five Stadium Scatters positioned anywhere will trigger 8, 10-25 and 50-100 free games respectively. If this occurs while you are playing in striker mode, all free games wins will be tripled. In case lucky mode is active, players have a chance to randomly unlock the Free Kick Free Games at the end of any real money spin, but they will only receive eight free games.

Bonus Ball symbols can appear on any icon during free games and if the Bonus Ball occurs on all reels at the same time, the Penalty Kick Bonus is awarded. The player gets to shoot penalties and depending on the number of scored goals they can receive an instant credit prize up to 900x bet.

Major and Minor progressive jackpots strike completely at random and these can be won at the end of any real money spin, regardless of the outcome. No more than 1.5% of total return to player goes towards the jackpot fund.
