11 Champions - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

This is a superb football-themed slot from Microgaming slots online with plenty of innovation. Your champion will dribble, pass or shoot depending on the action reel that runs horizontally above the game. Score a goal to earn a multiplier prize and a respin with added wilds.

Watch out for the bonus cup; getting three will trigger the chance to win one of the 4 game jackpots. There’s also the ball wild that replaces all symbols except that precious cup. There are 9 standard paytable symbols lined up across the pitch, including five royals and four high-paying picture symbols.

Gameplay becomes crystal clear when you start to play, and you’ll soon be cheering on your champions. You can play this slot in demo mode across all your devices, including mobile and tablet.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

This slot does a great job of capturing the thrills and excitement of match day if you’ve been missing the footie.

There are crowd noises and chants, commentary in different languages including an iconic Brazilian cry of 'goal', and a banging EDM soundtrack.

The transparent reels give us an excellent view of the pitch and the crowds behind the goal. The action reel is brilliantly integrated as an advertising hoarding.

One nice touch is the fact that you can change your champions jersey to match your favourite team - it won’t affect the outcome, but it’s the kind of personalisation more games should offer.

RTP & Volatility

With 95.93% RTP and high volatility, this is definitely one for the risk takers who love their footie. However, other players will appreciate the opportunity to play for those four jackpots.

Overall Review: Our Verdict

Any football fan will love 11 Champions. The design, sounds and visuals, gameplay and bonus features all combine into a slot that comes incredibly close to capturing the thrills and excitement of the greatest game on Earth.

We didn’t come anywhere close to the 5,000x jackpot but there’s some good winning potential from the other features. If you can’t get enough football in your life, NetEnt’s Football Champions Cup is also well worth a spin.
