Football Frenzy Pokie

A total bet size is adjusted between $0.50 (1 cent per line) and $12.50 (25 cents per line).

There are 10 non-feature symbols, all related to soccer. Judging by the paytable and relatively high wins built into it, the pokie can be classified as a high-variance game with big, but rare wins. Actually, winning combos are not extremely rare due to stacked symbols but you have to wait for some 5 to 10 loose spins for a winning combo to occur. On the reels you will come across a pair of boots, beer in a plastic cup, a red Champ scarf, a referee’s whistle, an FC emblem, a golden trophy (these symbols pay out up to x200); a referee showing a yellow card (x300), a face-painted fan (x300), a goalie (x500) and a ball (x500).

Some symbols, for example, the high-valued soccer ball or goalkeeper, appear stacked. This gives you higher chances of getting a profitable combination. A striker in red uniform is a grouped wild. Its key function is to substitute for other symbols and become part of non-feature symbol combinations. It lands on the first and fifth reels only yet it is not a big problem because wilds also multiply payouts by x2 when substituting. Another great thing about wilds is their stacked formation. When the reels stop, you will occasionally see two or more wilds on one reel.

At the top left corner there is a gameplay mode selector that you can pick at any time. Each mode has a set of specific features. You can play a few dozen spins in one mode and then switch to another at any point. 1) Striker mode. If this mode has been selected, all free spin wins are multiplied by x3. Base game runs as usual. 2) Lucky mode. In this mode, free spins come with no win multipliers. But access to free spins from base game is easier because they can activate at random after any spin.

As said above, there are two ways of how you can get the feature. First, it can be hit at random with 8 free spins granted. Second, it can be activated by landing three or more Stadium scatters in any position. Three, four or five scatters provide you with 8, 10–25 or 50–100 free spins, respectively. Free spins can run with a multiplier of x3 or x1, depending on the gameplay mode you have chosen in base game (Striker or Lucky). Furthermore, scatters give away an instant cash prize equaling to your total bet multiplied by x2, x10 or x500 ($6250 at max). In base game, stacked wilds land on reels 1 and 5 only. Free spins open up more opportunities to win thanks in particular to appearance of stacked wilds on the central reel.

During free spins you will notice small soccer ball icons appearing overlaid at the corner of main symbols. They do not affect payouts directly yet they trigger a second-screen Penalty Kick bonus if the small soccer balls appear on all reels simultaneously. You will be taken to a soccer field and see a player preparing to shoot a penalty kick. The goal area shows four targets that you can pick (two bottom and top corners). If the ball enters the goal, the feature continues and you move up the prize ladder, which consists of nine values from x2 to x100. If the goalkeeper saves the ball, an indicator on the Misses meter lights up. The feature ends after the second miss and you receive the bonus money according to your position on the Prize Ladder. In case you have two consecutive misses, the normal ball you kick turns into a golden ball with a multiplier of x3 and the goal scored with the golden ball increases your award by x3. Overall, the maximum potential bonus win in the Penalty Kick feature is x900 times the total bet ($11,250).

The pokie has two progressive jackpots, Minor and Major, both awarded at random. Their amounts vary across online casinos because they are pooled locally, within each individual casino. There are no qualifying requirements to win a jackpot meaning you can place absolutely any wager and still have the chance to hit either jackpot.

Football Frenzy is a 5-reel 50-payline pokie with two progressive jackpots. Conveying the soccer theme brilliantly, the online game has lots of bonus features including stacked wilds, scatters, two gameplay modes, free spins and an impressive Penalty Kick bonus that awards up to $11,250. The pokie performs well on desktop and mobile devices.
