Carnival Cup Slots
There is one minute left on the clock, fans are on the edge of their seats and you have a chance for eternal glory. Will you score the winning spin and take home the Carnival Cup jackpot? This sporting bonanza of a slot machine is brought to spinners courtesy of Nektan software – a company which specialises in making slot machines for mobile platforms. There are 5 reels, 9 lines and a 2,500-coin jackpot. But even if you're not in it for the pay packet, you can still enjoy the beautiful game with this nifty little slot machine.
The World In Celebration
Everyone loves the World Cup and as such, this slot machine is sure to have a huge appeal with its great football action and electric atmosphere. Spinners can join in the party to celebrate the beautiful game with some die-hard fans from across the world. For example, there is an Ireland supporter wearing the green and gold of the Irish tricolour and an England fan with the red and white of St. George's Cross. You'll also meet a Spanish follower with the red and yellow of la Rojigualda and a Brazilian fan wearing the green, yellow and blue of the Auriverde.
There are also a few more symbols to complete the line up. The first of these are the usual playing card icons such as 10, J, Q, K and A which are presented on football jerseys in various colours. Those icons are simple and have low values, but players will also find a wild symbol, which is depicted by the Carnival Cup trophy itself, and a free spin-triggering scatter which is presented as a set of footballs and drums.
Finger Football
Flex those fingers and warm up those thumbs because they are about to be called up to the action. That is because this slot machine is optimised for mobile spinning and you should even be able to play from smartwatches, with a series of control actions that require players to tap and scroll their way to spinning glory. For instance, to set your wagers, you must tap the “Stakes & Lines” button and then drag your finger through the options (by the way, you can play with 1 – 9 paylines with line wagers which range from 0.01 to 1 coin).
Despite being adapted for the smaller playing field, the action is still as entertaining as any ordinary footy match. The symbols are well designed and crisp to the eye and the whole look of the game is colourful and vibrant – just like any carnival celebration should be. The sound effects are likewise exuberant with cheers, drums and music. That said, there are a few of those dreaded vuvuzelas in the mix which might prompt players to turn the sound off after a few spins!
The Prize Money
At 2,500 coins, Carnival Cup doesn't reward punters with the biggest maximum pay out in the world of slot machines. However, this can be attributed to the fact that the top line bet possible is a fairly measly 1 coin.
The payouts start from the bottom with five 10 or J jersey symbols offering 50x the value of the line bet. Next up is the Q jersey which pays 110x for five in a row while both K and A jerseys will offer their top prizes of 150x. Moving into the midfield and you will find that the payouts start to rise in value dramatically. Five Ireland fans will award 300x, England supporters make for 500x, Spain fans will offer 750x and Brazil followers are worth up to 1,000x the bet per line. The top-scoring symbol that everyone wants in their line-up is the Carnival Cup logo – five of which on an active payline will reward 2,500x.
Go On A Scoring Run
If it's just not your day and your playing a rubbish match, then you can always rely on this slot machine's wild symbol to bring you into a purple patch of winning spins. That is because this trophy icon will substitute itself for other paying reel icons in order to complete winning combinations. Back of the net!
Fancy taking a penalty to score that winning? Well, this game will give you the next best thing with its round of free spins. These freebies are triggered by finding three or more of the scattering “Spins” icons, after which you can enjoy some wager-free goes at the goal.
And The Final Whistle Blows
Carnival Cup is sure to appeal to many punters who enjoy a bit of sporting action. The game is not the biggest in stature but it has a few neat touches and a few effective tricks to make it a very enjoyable game to play. Plus, with this mobile specific slot, you can drop in and out of the action wherever you are, whenever you want.
