Football Rules

If you've always dreamt about lining up on the pitch, this is your big chance. Football Rules from Playtech is a football-themed slot which includes plenty of action, plus the opportunity to win real cash prizes of up to x10,000.

Football-themed slots are a big hit with players, with many studios producing their own tribute to the beautiful game. No matter what team you support, it's possible to enjoy playing football slots, as the majority feature fictional players and teams. Some of the popular football-themed slots include Football Star, Football Glory and 11 Champions. 

Football Rules is set on a 5x3 board which includes 25 flexible paylines. This means it's possible to reduce the number of paylines in play but remember: if a winning combination lands on a payline that's not active, you won't receive a prize! Betting is on the low side with a min bet of 0.01 per line, giving a total of 0.25 per spin with all paylines in play. The max bet tops out at just 6.25, putting this game firmly in the realm of low rollers and casual players.

The bright green backdrop, complete with white lines, lays out the game just like a football pitch. The symbols are spread across the grass rather than in a separate frame, creating the feeling of gameplay that's on the pitch rather than separate. In truth, the effect is rather two-dimensional and basic, but there's no doubt that this is a football-themed slot!

Five different football strips make up the low pays, with red, blue, white and two striped shirts all included. The high pays include a football, a referee and a goalkeeper.

The crowd gets a role, too, with the decorated football fan representing the wild. This can substitute for any of the low or high pays to create a match.

There aren’t a huge number of bonus features included in Football Rules, but there is a little extra to potentially bump up the prize payout.

There is a scatter symbol but unusually this isn’t linked to any bonus features. When three or more land on the reels, players will receive a scatter payout but nothing more.

There is a separate bonus symbol, and when this lands on reels one and five simultaneously, the free spins round launches.

Before the free spins round starts, players will play a bonus mini-game. Players will have six footballs to select from. They can choose which football to play with and also the direction of the kick into the goal; this will decide the number of free spins and the multiplier that applies.

The free spins round can be retriggered during the bonus round with no upper limit.

If you're a football fan, then Football Rules from Playtech will be a slot that you'll enjoy. It's not packed with features, but it's very firmly focused on football, with even a themed bonus round and a lucrative potential top prize of x10,000 to tempt all.
