The Final Countdown is a slot game inspired by the iconic 80’s hit from the Swedish rock band, Europe. Released on 14 March 2019, the game comprises 6 reels, 4 rows, and 4096 ways to win. The highlight of the game is the free spins feature, which allows players to choose between two different modes. This high-volatility slot offers the potential to win up to 36,000x your stake.
The Return to Player (RTP) ranges from 96.56% to 96.65%, slightly above the industry average. Given its high volatility, players need to manage their bankroll and bet level wisely. The game features parts of the original song, a rocket next to the reels, and a free spins feature with two modes — The Final Countdown and Heading for Venus. It also includes wild and multiplier features in the base game.
The game offers several interesting features, including a Reel Clone feature, where the reels can clone and create matching symbols anywhere from the second to the fifth reel. The Clone Wilds feature expands a wild according to the number of cloned reels and includes a multiplier boost. The free spins feature requires at least three scatter symbols on the same spin, and players can choose between two features — The Countdown Free Spins Feature and Heading for Venus Free Spins feature.
Despite lacking a progressive jackpot, the game’s potential is substantial, with a max win of 36,000 times your stake. It is compatible with mobile and tablet devices, and Big Time Gaming has optimized it for all platforms.
The Final Countdown relies heavily on players’ fondness for the song. However, if you enjoyed Danger High Voltage, you may also like this game due to many similarities. The neon visuals and moving lights evoke an 80’s dance floor vibe, and the game’s potential is limited only by a rather low maximum bet.
