The World Cup is fast approaching, and the means one thing: football fever is spreading! Online slots designers love basing their games on special occasions and big events, so there are plenty of football-themed slots for you to enjoy in between exciting World Cup matches.
Here is a list of some of our favourites:
Shoot!
Shoot! is one of the newest football-themed slots to hit the online casino market. Designed by Microgaming, Shoot! is a retro football slots gam that celebrates footballs stars from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. As such, the game will probably appeal to an older audience, since young football fans may not feel entirely nostalgic about these players.
Still, they will certainly appreciate that Pele, Maradona and Beckenbauer are legends - while enjoying the fun and exciting bonus features.
World Cup Heroes
World Cup Heroes is a slots game from OpenBet. In this 5-reel 9-payline game, each symbol is based on a particularly talented World Cup Team, including England, Brazil and Germany. There is also a cartoon lion symbol, which seems a bit random – but, he adds a bit of fun to the game.
The game’s special feature is a penalty shootout. The player has to make four penalty shots. For every shot that the player makes, they will earn a multiplier: 5x, 10x, 25x and 100x.
Final Goal
As one of the newest football slots, Final Goal includes some innovative gaming features that you won’t find on other games. It is the first-ever online slots game to include a customisable interface. Choose the team that you are rooting for (there are 16 to choose from), and the game’s design will represent that country.
It is available on Double Down Casino, so it is a free slots game that you can play to your heart’s content without breaking the bank.
Soccer Safari
If you live in the United Kingdom or Australia, you may resent playing a game called ‘Soccer Safari’ when you know that the correct name of the sport is ‘football’. However, that shouldn’t stop you from giving this game a spin. It is one of the most imaginative games on our list of football-themed online slots because it features jungle animals as football players, fans, cheerleaders, referees and commentators.
We quite enjoy the bonus feature in this game, which is quite similar to the Penalty Bonus in World Cup Heroes. Players choose one of five players: the rhino, the warthog, the lion, the baboon or the gazelle. Then, you take your free kick against the opposing team for you chance to win.
