Theme and Style

Shaolin Soccer is themed around a lighthearted world of soccer and monks.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The animation of Shaolin Soccer has a playful cartoon style with plenty of vivid colors. Players will notice the flash of cameras in the stands and the blinding floodlights illuminating the field.

The reels are built into a brick building with a yellow and red awning for a roof. The symbols include tasty-looking dumplings, referee whistles, and a variety of brightly-hued letters and numbers.

The main character of this slot is an adorable soccer-playing monk who seems intent on leading his team to victory. His plump rosy cheeks and large eyes give this character a somewhat childlike appearance.

Shaolin Soccer’s soundtrack adds cinematic drama with an intense melody and occasional chimes. Players will feel hyped up and ready to kick a ball around.

When players land 3 or more Scatter symbols, the Free Spins feature begins. If the feature is triggered by 3 Scatter symbols, 8 free spins are awarded. Alternatively, 4 triggering Scatters award 15 free spins, and 5 triggering Scatters award 20 free spins.

Throughout the Free Spins feature Wild symbols have associated multipliers of 2x or 3x. These multipliers are applied to any wins that involve a Wild.

A minimum of 2 Scatters are required to retrigger the Free Spins feature. Players are awarded 5 additional free spins for landing 2 Scatters, 8 free spins for landing 3 Scatters, 15 free spins for landing 4 Scatters, and 20 free spins for landing 5 Scatters.

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols with the exception of the Scatter symbol.

Bet Sizes, RTP and Variance

The return to player of this game is 94.00%, well below our yardstick for an average of roughly 96%.

The range of bets on the site we tested ran from a minimum bet per spin of $/£/€0.30 up to a maximum of $/£/€150.00 per spin.

Medium volatility makes Shaolin Soccer a less ideal match for our preferred slot machine strategies. Our slot strategies target the highest possible volatility.

Conclusion

We do not recommend this low RTP, medium-volatility, soccer-themed slot.

Despite its comical theme, the RTP of Shaolin Soccer is too low to merit a recommendation. Mathematically inclined players will also be less partial to this slot’s moderate volatility.

Fans of the film Shaolin Soccer may still wish to give this slot a try for the entertainment value.
