Bonus Rounds and Payouts
The low value symbols of the 6 playing card symbols pays players between 75x
and 120x their bet for 5 of a kind. The Hat and Horn symbols each reward players
a maximum of 250x their bet for the same combination, while the beer pays double
that at 500x. The Female Fans symbol pays 750x for 5 of them in a row and the
Male Fans pay slightly more than that at 1000x the player’s bet.
The Grab a Beer feature works by allowing the player to place the gold ring,
labelled ‘Cold Beer’, anywhere on the reels before every spin. If a beer symbol
happens to land inside the gold ring the player will have won a multiplier of 3x
to their winnings.
The Penalty Kick Bonus feature is activated by landing 3 or more Football
Fans Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. Players will automatically be
awarded with 15 free spins. After each spin, a soccer play will come on to the
screen and kick a ball towards the reels. Whichever symbol he lands on will
become Wild. Up to 3 symbols can turn Wild each time. A further 10 Free Spins
can be activated within the round if 3 more Scatter symbols are spun into view.
Additional Game Features
The Wild Symbol in this game is the icon of the Soccer Ball that is clearly
marked as ‘WILD’. This symbol has the ability to replace all other standard
symbols in the game, thus greatly increasing the chances of landing winning

symbol. The Wild also acts as an individual symbol and is the game’s most
valuable icon. If players land 5 of these in a winning combo they will be
rewarded with 5000x their bet.
