The First Person Football Studio online casino game by Evolution combines elements of football and the beginner card game “War.”
You can exclusively find the American football-themed table game at BetMGM Michigan Casino. However, various online casinos in Michigan offer a version of the game titled similarly, but based on soccer.
This game is designed with a user-friendly interface, making it easy to play. Additionally, it was released at the perfect moment, capitalizing on the increased sports betting activity during football season on mobile applications.
In First Person Football Studio, the objective is straightforward: predict whether the home or away team will reveal the card with a higher value.
If your prediction is correct, you will double your money; however, if you are mistaken, the house emerges as the winner.
Although there isn’t much skill involved, the tracker at the top does indicate the previous several draws.
Prior to placing any bets, you will be required to cut the shoe containing eight decks.
After cutting the cards, you can choose your stakes, ranging from as low as $0.20 to as high as $2,500. Decide whether you want to bet on home, away, or a draw. Betting on home or away will give you a 1:1 payout, whereas a correct draw will pay you 11:1. In the event that you chose home or away and the outcome is a draw, you will receive half of your stake back.
If you desire, you have the option to place bets on all three simultaneously during a single hand.
Once you have placed your bet, simply press the “deal” button to distribute one card to each side.
That concludes the game.
Combining football themes with War card game
According to the Evolution website, the soccer edition of the game, known as First Person Football Studio, has the potential to attract sportsbook customers.
This is applicable to the soccer edition, which includes a score bug and news ticker displaying information about international and club soccer. However, the football edition lacks this feature, and its only attraction to Michigan sports bettors lies in its visuals.
The game takes place on a football field, adding a delightful twist to the traditional table game experience. As you play, a lively rock music track, reminiscent of the sports video games from the late 1990s, accompanies your every move. Additionally, a female voice announces the winner after each hand, keeping you informed and engaged throughout the game.
Live dealer game coming?
Currently, the live dealer version of the game does not exist in that space. However, there is a button provided for future access to it.
Taking you to the live dealer lobby is quite a spectacle, but the game first brings you through a hallway to showcase all of BetMGM Casino’s other live dealer options.
First person soccer game also available
Evolution has made the soccer version of the game accessible since 2020, offering enhanced visual experience.
This is evident from the score bug and news ticker mentioned earlier. Additionally, the soccer version allows for a maximum bet of $5,000.
However, similar to its football equivalent, when you click “Go Live,” it simply directs you to a live dealer lobby that does not feature a live rendition of the game.
You can find the soccer version on various Michigan online casinos including BetMGM, Caesars, DraftKings, BetRivers, WynnBET, Barstool, and Eagle Casino & Sports.
