The slots in question? Football Star & Cool Wolf. Which one will be made into a mobile slot game? How about the one with the massive sporting event due this year?
To be honest, we were expecting a few more football themed 2014 mobile slots. With the world cup only around the corner and with it being one of the most widely played and watched games in the world, we would have thought we’d have been inundated with new football slots by now.
Only Microgaming has risen to the challenge for soccer fans every where and brought together a game ready for the summer.
What is Football Star video slot all about?
We will give you one guess. Bright, colourful and on a background of grassy green and stadium lights, you’ll spin to score big in this 243 ways to win new Microgaming mobile slot. Here’s the video, watch it and then read how we break this slot down into a thousand pieces.
What glimmer of information can we deduce?
Quite a bit. Though there is no mobile slot currently live that fits all the features, there are enough Microgaming video slots out there to be able to make a good educated guess. It’s far simpler than their recently released Hitman bonus game slot or High Society mobile slot. Wins on this game will be far more random, with the Striking Wild Bonus feature coming out of nowhere to give you extra hits. In short:
- Another 243 ways to win. Yeah. Variety wouldn’t go amiss Microgaming.
- Probably low to medium volatility with constant hitting features but hard to hit in-game jackpot of 105, 705 in cash.
- 25 free spins with ‘rolling reels’ ie. cascading or tumbling reels for the rest of us. Much like Gonzo’s Quest Touch. Mean’s you’ll get a long lasting free spin feature of about 30 to 40 free spins in the end. Which also tells us that building that multiplier ‘trail’ (starts at 1x then 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, and 10x) will be harder than personally scoring the winning penalty goal during the world cup final. Sure you can get a 10x multiplier. But if it hits above 3x during most free spin rounds we’ll eat our Vuvuzela.
- The striking wild and stacked wilds are likely to be where the reachable big wins of the game will hide to keep you going.
- Is it just us or do the Football Star on this slot look slightly vacant and puppet like? Are these the Stepford Football husbands?
Essentially, if you want to get any decent amounts of cash on this slot for mobile casinos you’ll have to hope for the 10x multiplier to come on a great big score. But then, don’t we all just sit at the edge of every world cup, thinking and hoping our country will bring us to glory… though in your hearts you know that unless you’re from Brazil, Argentina, Spain or Germany 2014 might not be your year?
Still, you never know right?
What about Cool Wolf?
This one isn’t going to be mobile but Cool Wolf online slot still looks like good harmless fun. Think Michael J Fox as Teen Wolf back in 1985, only with pink Cadillacs. It has that kind of retro vibe and clearly doesn’t take it’s theme very seriously.
Oh yes, it’s another 243 ways to win video slot. It’s starting to feel like Microgaming can’t release anything else these days. This little slot is going to be all about the wilds, with three wild features. In fact, other than that, it looks like an almost copy of Football Star, with rolling reels on the free spins and max win of 105,000 in cash.
Bright side? If you’re not a fan of football you’ll have an almost identical slot to play that’s a little more fun and perky.
Where can I play Microgaming mobile slots?
Several places. Our favourite at the moment is Guts, which you can read our full casino review to find out why. But basically we love that you can play more than just Microgaming and they are one of the best multi-casino platform casinos around. They also offer 100 free spins without any wagering requirements on the winnings, which is rare and generous.
Go and play at Guts today. They’ll let you know once the new slots are out on the 8th of May 2014.
