The Final Countdown is a high volatility, music / space-themed slot featuring 6 reels and 4, 096 paylines. It is playable across desktop and handheld devices, and accepts bets in the range 0.20 and £20 per spin.
The special features you will hope to trigger during your gameplay include free spins, cloning multiplier wilds, and cloning reels.
The low-value symbols are represented by the standard royals. The better-paying symbols are gemstones with the purple one being the best paying among them. The blonde girl is the wild. The golden tile with the FC (final countdown) acronym stands for the scatter that triggers the free spins.
Reel Clone Feature
As its name implies, the reel clone feature duplicates the symbols on reels 2- 5. The reels can clone on any given spin.
Clone Wilds Feature
If you land a wild on a cloned reel, it becomes an expanding wild and brings you a multiplier of up to the mind-blowing x256.
Free Spins Feature
If you land at least three scatters in one spin, the free spins feature is triggered and you will have to choose between the following options:
Countdown free spins feature – you are given 8 free spins as well as 2×2 roaming wilds. Scatters appear during the free spins, and if you land 3 of them, you get a re-trigger. Every re-trigger brings you an increased multiplier and expanding wilds.
Heading for Venus free spins – you are awarded 15 free spins with reels that can clone on any spin. If you land velocity wilds, you can get a multiplier of up to x888.
Bottom Line
The final countdown is definitely worth your while. If you have the courage to try it, you should be prepared for a series of consecutive losses. If you are persistent enough, you may emerge victorious and score a handsome win.
