Winning Kick Luckytap

For players that are looking for a unique experience, the LuckyTap series of games is perhaps one to consider. This game is set on a football pitch, where players have the option to shoot in the hopes of scoring a goal. After selecting a stake size, which can be a minimum of 0.30 per round, and clicking the play button, the ball can either miss, be saved by the goalkeeper, or hit the back of the net.

If a goal is scored, the player can be awarded with any of the values seen behind the keeper. Or enter the bonus mode, which will be covered later in this review. Interestingly, the potential winnings are not limited to one of the values, with any number of the prizes being randomly selected and awarded to the player after each goal. 

This title was released by Design Works Gaming, a provider that has provided solutions to IGT in the past. Design Works Gaming is perhaps best known for its other LuckyTap games, which include other titles such as Super Pinata LuckyTap and Test Your Strength LuckyTap. These casino games offer a fresh approach, with the concept of the LuckyTap range being a combination of slots and instant-win games.

Within the Winning Kick LuckyTap game, there are only two different symbols to look out for, all of which are located in the goal. The first is a random value, which is based on a multiple of the stake size. Second is the bonus mode icons, of which there are 3, located in the very centre of the netting.

These amounts also have the potential to be multiplied, if less than ten different prizes are awarded to the players. This feature is triggered randomly and will be shown as a supporter crossing the field, holding a sign that displays the total multiplier. On the sign, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, or 7x can appear. After the fan has left the screen, this multiplier will be applied to all potential winnings and awarded to the player.

To unlock the main bonus in this game, the three corresponding symbols need to light up after a goal has been scored. Players will then be presented with a variety of different footballs, with the opportunity to pick between each. After making their selection, the ball will reveal an icon, each of which is associated with a different prize. This continues until 3 of the same symbols are revealed before the player is then awarded with the value of that specific icon.

In this mode, there is also the chance for players to win one of the progressive jackpots shown above the crossbar. This can be done by revealing three icons that have the word 'Minor', 'Major', or 'Mega'. If this does happen, that specific jackpot amount will be awarded to the player. It's also worth knowing that these jackpots are progressive, with 0.24%, 0.21%, and 0.17% of each wager made by the player, which will be added to the potential winnings.

Winning Kick LuckyTap is a game from an original series created by Design Works Gaming. It's relatively simple to play. However, the animation and sounds help to add a layer of immersion. The bonus rounds follow in the same vein, being interactive yet still straightforward.
