Football X by SmartSoft Gaming

A footballer keeps a ball in the air and the multiplier rises while you hold the button down. Letting go is the cash out, so the round is one continuous decision rather than a wait followed by a click.

How to Play Football X

The goal is to release the button before the player drops the ball. The multiplier rises only while you are holding, and the drop point is fixed before the round starts. The steps below cover a full round.

  1. Set your stake

    Bets run from 1.00 to 100. The stake is set before the round rather than during it.

  2. Press and hold to start

    Pressing and holding the large yellow button commits the stake and starts the round. The player begins juggling and the multiplier starts climbing from ×1.00.

  3. Keep holding

    The multiplier rises for as long as the ball stays up and the button stays down. Releasing early collects; holding on pushes for more.

  4. Release to collect

    • Released in time - the stake is multiplied by the value showing at the moment of release.
    • The ball drops first - the round ends and the bet is lost.
  5. Hand the round over to autoplay

    Autoplay runs rounds on the configured stake and target without holding the button, and stops on the profit and loss limits set alongside it.

Football X FAQ

What is Football X?

Football X is a crash game from SmartSoft Gaming controlled by a single press-and-hold button. A footballer juggles a ball while the multiplier climbs, and releasing the button collects at the value on screen. If he drops the ball while the button is still held, the bet is lost.

Can I play Football X for free?

Yes. The demo runs on play money with no registration or download, at the same 97% RTP and ×100 ceiling as the real-money version.

Why is the max win only ×100?

Because the maths is built to pay small and often rather than rarely and large. A ×100 ceiling on 97% RTP means most of the return comes back through frequent low multipliers, which is the opposite trade to a crash game advertising six-figure ceilings on a thinner tail. It is a different shape of game, not a worse-paying one.

Do the five characters change anything?

No. They change which footballer appears on screen. The RTP, the ceiling and the point at which the ball drops are the same whichever is selected.
