Theme – are you hard enough?

The Hooligan Hustle slot has a football/hooligan theme oddly. Graphically, it has a comic book feel. The story is that it’s the most important football match of the year and chaos is brewing. The setting is a street outside the stadium where hooligans from opposing teams face up to one another.

With smash police cars and debris everywhere, the football hooligans are sticking 2 fingers up at one another and calling it on. Think of a scene from the infamous Green Street film which stars Elijah Wood and Charlie Hunnam. The game certainly has a UK focus (Millwall springs to mind).

Symbols on the reels include weapons used by the hooligans: bricks, pints of beer, crowbars, spiked baseball bats and knuckledusters. The 4 higher value symbols are represented by actual hooligans. The bald, fist-clenching hooligan is the highest paying symbol (hooligan 4) giving you 1, 1.4 or 2 x your total stake for 3, 4 or 5 in combination.

The traffic cone is the wild symbol and pays 2 x your total stake for 5 across a payline. The wild also substitutes for all symbols mentioned above. There are also wooden box mystery symbols and Molotov cocktail scatters (more details below).
