Hat Trick Hero Review

Betsoft is well-known for their 3D cinematographic visual presentation, but none of that shines through in Hat Trick Hero. Visually, the game looks boring, dated and generic, and each spin is accompanied by a rather horrible spin sound (can luckily be turned off). Don’t even get us started on whatever the soundtrack is supposed to be, as this game is best played with no sound at all.

In fact, anyone but the most hardcore football fans should avoid Hat Trick Hero like the plague, as things hardly get better in the math model or feature department. It’s all about triggering walking wild respins, in which you might land the 1,000x cash prize. A hat trick is normally 3 goals in a row, but you need to score 15 in a row here. We’ll walk you through all the details below.

Hat Trick Hero slot Features

The power shot wild is a foot hitting the ball, and steps in for all regular pay symbols. The symbol serves as an ordinary wild whenever you land 1 or 2 at the same time.

The triggering wilds turn into speeding football walking wilds during the Hat Trick Hero Respin feature. They move one step to the left per respin, and you get new free respins as long as there are power shot wilds present on the reels. If you land new power shot wilds during the respins feature, these become walking wilds too.

When the football walking wilds exit the reels on the far left, they hit the back of the net of the open goal below the Score Meter. If you manage to score 15 goals (i.e. land 15 walking wilds) in one session, you win the 1,000x instant cash prize from the score meter.

Whenever we get a new football slot on our proverbial desk, we always brace ourselves for another disappointment.

Review Summary

As much as we love football, the ever-popular game seldom translates to very good video slots. Betsoft has tried to make a somewhat engaging walking wild respins feature, but speeding balls that walk in slow motion across the reels just look ridiculous. There are plenty of ways to make a feature like this look cool though, but it’s clear that Betsoft has not put a lot of thought into this game at all.

Without a regular bonus round, it’s all about scoring 15 goals in a single Respins session. This happened once every 21,299 triggers during testing. The 1,000x jackpot is hardly worth your while anyway, and the overall 1,260x max win is lousy for a highly volatile game. Football fanatics might get a kick out of this for a while, but to us it’s another disappointing football slot thrown on the pile.

Pros

• Walking wild respins
• 15 wilds awards 1,000x jackpot
• 1,260x overall max win

Cons

• Annoying spin sound
• Boring, dated and generic theme
