Free Kick Slot Review

The Free Kick slot machine is a wonderful inclusion to an ever expanding catalogue of CryptoLogic designed titles. In true tradition to its football theme, behind the reels you will see a stunning backdrop of vibrant colours just like a real football crowd. The illustrations are brilliantly drawn including such splendid icons as the referee, a supporter, a goalkeeper, football boots and caution-cards to name but a few. Pay particular attention to the football, and the yellow and red card icons which are the wild and two scatters respectively. Look out specifically for the player taking a shot as five of this icon across an active payline will drop you the top 5,000 coin award. The sounds used are extremely effective too. The typical reel spin sounds and stops are the regular recycled tones from the CryptoLogic backlog however create decent winning lines, and produce combos using the special icons to hear magical musical motifs and a few football inspired fanfares. The Free Kick slot's animation is smooth for the reel spins but also expands to the special icons that move about on the reels if they have helped create a win such as the moving football, or the moving red/yellow cards.

The Free Kick video slot is a brilliant online casino slot for any gamer ready to take the next step from traditional 3-reel slots, or those wanting to take a step back from the 20+line slots with every device imaginable. The added bonus of an excellently designed theme and all the prizes and numerous ways to drop them, make this video slot ideal for a wide variety of gamers in the online community.

Wild Symbol

The wild symbol is the football icon which is arguably the most handy of all of the symbols you can spin onto the reels. It only appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 but substitutes for all other icons when revealed onto an active payline. However take note as it does not substitute itself for either of the scatter symbols.

Scatter Symbol

There are two Free Kick scatter icons that you can spin across the reels, the yellow or red cards either of which will drop you multiples of your total bet. Reveal 2, 3, 4 or 5 yellow cards across the reels to get your full bet returned, multiplied by 1, 5, 10 or 100 times respectively. For a more serious offence spread 2, 3, 4 or 5 red cards across the reels to receive the multiples of 1, 5, 20 or 500 times respectively to your total bet.

Bonus Round

The bonus round is triggered through the scatter symbols; three or more yellow cards will take you to the penalty spot where you have five shots against the goalkeeper, whereas three or more red cards will grant you eight shots! Just like a penalty in a football match the goalkeeper stands on his line and you have a choice of four destinations where to put the ball; bottom left and right, or top left and right. Out of your total shots, the more you score the more prizes you will win. Are you a Beckham, or more like a Gareth Southgate? Get to this bonus round and you can show off your finishing prowess!
