Super Striker

Review

Slots based on popular sports can sometimes rely too heavily on the theme. This game manages to appeal to a broad audience by providing engaging gameplay, even for those who aren't particularly interested in the sport.

The visuals are more straightforward than some other games, and it features a 3x3 grid with 5 paylines. The theoretical payout is around average. This game offers a balance between frequent and large payouts, and a side bet feature can increase the theoretical payout.

This side bet feature allows you to wager on the frequency of specific symbols appearing, and alongside the special symbol, it adds excitement to the main game. However, the bonus round, with its increasing multiplier levels and special symbols potentially worth up to 50x, is the main attraction. This is key to the game's top payout, and you don’t need to be a sports fan to enjoy it.

What symbols are there?

The usual low-value symbols have been replaced with symbols that resemble classic symbols, but feature the word Goal. The goal symbols will provide a payout when at least 3 appear, and they can also pay out in mixed combinations. The medium-value symbols include sports shoes, special sports shoes, and a celebrating player. The player kissing their medal is the highest-value symbol, with 5 on a payline paying out a significant amount.

What are the bonus features?

The main feature is the bonus round, but the base game also offers some interesting elements. While there isn't a wild symbol, there are 2 special symbols that can be very beneficial. These are the standard symbol and the unique symbol, with the latter appearing on any reel during the base game. When the unique symbol lands, it awards a multiplier that can boost the winnings.

There is also a side game feature. It allows you to place wagers on how frequently a specific symbol will appear within a set number of spins. Choose a symbol, a number of spins from 10 to 100, and a bet amount. Significant wins are possible here, adding excitement to the base game.

Free spins

The free spins bonus round is activated by landing 1 unique symbol alongside 2 standard symbols. Alternatively, landing 3 standard symbols alone will also trigger the feature, with 5 levels. Each level increases the win multiplier: 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, and 10x.

Only unique symbols (or blanks) appear in the bonus round, and each symbol has a multiplier. You start with 3 free spins, but the count resets to 3 with each new symbol. To progress to the next level, the screen needs to be filled with unique symbols. This feature can be lucrative, with all symbol multipliers combined and multiplied by the level multiplier.

What is the jackpot (max win)?

There isn't a progressive jackpot, but the multiplier action can still lead to solid payouts. A win of a significant amount is possible in the bonus round, representing the game’s top payout.

Where can I play?

You can play for real money at online casinos.

You can also play a demo for free.

You can also play on mobile devices.

verdict

This is a well-rounded game and one of the better sports-themed slots. The unique multiplier symbol and the side bet feature keep the base game interesting, while waiting to trigger the bonus round. The potential payout is solid, and this is a great slot to play while enjoying a sports game.
