World Cup Soccer Spins is a soccer, or for our UK readers football, inspired slot from CTXM gaming. The designers have combined classic graphics which much more modern slot technology. This means the slot benefits from wild wins, free spins, a penalty shootout bonus game and a 5,000 coin jackpot.
World-Cup Soccer Spins Slot Theme
The background has been designed to look like a floodlit football stadium, complete with moving advertising hoardings and flashing cameras in the crowd. The five reels don’t have a case as such and instead are separated by a striped pattern. The 30 paylines are marked on either side by cheerful colored rectangles.
The reel icons appear to be from a different era at first glance, but don’t judge them too harshly because each offers in-depth animation when a winning combination is paid out. The reel icons include football boots, whistles, goalie gloves, red/yellow cards, various players and of course a football.
The various buttons and options can all be found at the bottom with a display which looks like a scoreboard. The coin value is set using the ‘line price’ button which ranges from 0.05 to 5. The betting range is 0.05 to £/$/€150 when combined with the paylines (1 to 30). This provides plenty of options for players regardless of their budget.
World-Cup Soccer Spins Slot Features
Wild symbols are present on the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th reels in singular form. These can substitute for other symbols barring the bonus and scatter. An expanding wild has been placed on the middle reel which greatly enhances your chances of winning.
With so much going on it’s nice to see the inclusion of free spins. You’ll gain free spins when 3, 4 or 5 icons appear anywhere on the reels.
Three bonus icons, or more, triggers the bonus round. A flashing rectangle chases around the goal to represent where the ball will travel. If you match up your cursor with the flashing rectangle you have a chance of scoring a goal. You receive five shots with each goal paying an instant win.
It may not have the best static graphics but in some ways this adds to atmosphere. It’s partly like Italia 90 or Euro 96 re-runs which look grainy and edgy on screen but contain some top notch footballing action. This slot offers the same experience, it looks a little odd from the outset but once wins are paid and the bonus round is triggered this is all forgotten. This is a formula which works well in our opinion.
