Bobby George: Sporting Legends Review
The Sporting Legends series has seen AP McCoy, Ascot, Ronnie O'Sullivan and Brian Lara get their own slots and now it's time for Bobby George to get the spotlight. Developed by Playtech and Rare Stone, Bobby George: Sporting Legends focuses on the iconic darts player and his illustrious career.
Playing on 5-reels with 40 paylines, this sports slot follows the King of Darts in his own branded slot with free spins and a variety of boosters to improve your gameplay. Of course, the amazing Sporting Legends Jackpot is back in this slot delivering epic wins.
Design
When Bobby George: Sporting Legends opens up, you are greeted with a bright blue background that is shaped like a dartboard. There is a glimmering light behind the reels as well to show that George is the star of this slot.
On the reels, there are his trademark darts with union jacks on them, a candelabra, golden bracelets and other extravagant items that George often had. Of course, the man himself is in the slot as a wild and in the highest-paying symbols.
Sadly, there's not a whole lot to the sound as there is a subtle synth score playing throughout the reels. All the buttons have the traditional fruit machine sound but we're a little disappointed that there isn't more to the sound of this slot.
Gameplay
The base game of Bobby George: Sporting Legends contains 5-reels with 50 paylines - but this can increase to 3,125 ways to win during free spins. There isn't really anything else to this slot aside from free spins, but the improvements are varied enough to make it feel full of features.
At the bottom of the screen, there's a spin button and a bet level in the middle. Further to the left, there's an information button leading to the paytable and instructions on how to play.
Win Potential
The RTP in this slot is 95.49% but this includes the jackpot contribution as well making it quite a decent amount for a slot with a progressive jackpot. Naturally, this slot also has a high volatility level leading to bigger wins but less often.
It's unknown what the maximum win for the base game is but there is a progressive jackpot attached with the Sporting Legends Jackpot. This is a three-tiered jackpot with a Daily Jackpot, Weekly Jackpot and a Sporting Legends Jackpot.
Our Verdict
Bobby George is a larger than life figure who became beloved within the world of darts. Whilst the overall gameplay is thrilling with the free spins round being exciting with all the different improvements, the design is seriously lacking.
We expected someone as flamboyant as George to have a flashier slot. Despite this, it doesn't distract too much from the gameplay but we'd recommend playing your own music to accompany the game as it gets a little awkward with no real music.
Bobby George: Sporting Legends is perhaps one of the best Sporting Legends slots with the gameplay and win potential - it's definitely a slot that shouldn't be missed if you love darts and Bobby George.
