The first impressions that strike you when visiting this slot is as if you have walked in through the tunnel on match day. The release of WORLD CUP HEROES has all the sounds that you would hear on match day, including the chanting crowds of supporters and the occasional sound of a whistle. The graphics are quite simple but a clever way of having the symbols was to have footballs, covered with the flags of different countries.

You will probably notice football phrases above the reels with sayings such as “On me head son,” and “Footballs coming home…” This is a nice little touch from WAGERWORKS. It’s a five-reel slot and you are able to have up to 30 paylines here. The minimum stake available is 0.01 coin, or if you have plenty of cash, you can have a maximum spin that will cost you 750.00 coins. The scatter symbol is clearly marked SCATTER with a supporter waving a team scarf above his head. The wild cards are large, silver WHISTLES. There is also a GOLD WHISTLE, which can activate the wild shoot out feature.

The golden whistle is able to turn any of the ten different football symbols wild, providing it spins in to the middle reel. This can help your account to rapidly increase, as it is generally quite favourable and pays out well. If you here the crowds suddenly roaring, it will be because three or more of the scatter symbols have appeared in any order. Keep watching the screen to see what cash prize you won. Or check the balance in the corner.

Seeing three, four or five ‘GOLDEN GLOBES’ will make sure that you are well rewarded. There may not be major 3Dimensional graphics to admire but the cash prizes seem to be a lot bigger than other slots in comparison with the actual stakes paid for a spin. If you hit the right combinations on this slot, the rewards are huge. This slot may be lacking in some areas, but the payouts certainly make you forget that, and remind you that you don’t have to play on a nice fancy slot to win big. This is perfect for a quick fix before you head off to a real game.
