Sports-themed slots games have been tempting those who enjoy both watching sports and putting bets on them to try out online casino sites for a while now. A fair few of those games are based around football. This is fair enough, as football is the most watched and followed sport throughout much of the world, and for a football slots game to succeed it has to be able to tap into that huge fan base. One game on the market just now is the World Cup-inspired Soccer Safari, but is it a good option for fans of football and gambling?

Well it is unlikely that many football fans will fault the part of the game devoted to that sport as, from the main game to the bonuses, it is well-realised. The basis for the game is that of a bunch of animals competing in a World Cup tournament in the jungles of Africa.

These animals make up the icons on the five reels with the likes of lions, buffalo, zebras, cheetahs and warthogs lining up alongside the Soccer Safari logo (which is the wild icon) and the World Cup trophy (the scatter). The wild icon gives you a great chance of a payout by filling in for missing icons on your reel, while the scatter can trigger the bonus game and potentially multiply your payout.

This bonus game puts you in the position of one of those animal footballers, trying to score goals from different places on the pitch. You keep going until you fail to score. This is a great game for any football fan, and you should either boost your payout or win a prize if you get to play it. Soccer Safari is also very cheap to play, accepting coins as low as $0.01, making it ideal for playing over longer periods. With a cash jackpot of $8000 on offer it’s unlikely you’ll want to stop playing it too quickly.
