How about a Starburst-themed Megaways slot?
It’s an easy way to please many players. I can tell you that.
Almost every slot player has played Starburst at least once in their lives, so there is a lot of theme recognition.
Besides, with Starburst, you can only land a pathetic 500x. With this slot, you can win a blistering twenty-fold that!
Starz Megaways can land top prizes of 10,000x the bet
What’s even more amazing is that you can bet a maximum of 50 euro, with means the top award is a cool 500,000 euro.
Isn’t that madness? The sky’s the limit!
Starz Megaways slot – Gameplay and Features
The game comes across as futuristic. You’re travelling in space.
It’s a Megaways slot. Who doesn’t know Megaways? Anybody?
In short:
- You have six reels with at least two and, at most, seven symbols.
- There is a maximum of 117,649 Megaways (7x7x7x7x7x7).
- Unlike many Megaways slots, you don’t have an Avalanche (Cascading, Tumbling) mechanism, and you don’t get a re-spin, after a winning combo.
- You can win both ways – from left to right and from right to left.
The premium symbols are the gems, and the lower-tier symbols are the planets.
You also have expanding wilds. If it is possible to make a winning combo with a wild, the entire reel becomes wild.
Pretty cool, if you ask the CasinoHipster!
Spin at least three bonus symbols for up to 15 free spins
The main game gives you access to the free spins game if you spin 3, 4, 5 or 6 bonus symbols.
Three scattered bonus symbols yield six free spins; four gets you 8 free spins, and five are good for 10 free spins. If you spin six bonus symbols, you take the full hit with 15 free spins.
What’s better, if you spin three or more bonus symbols, you get a free re-spin. It gives you an excellent opportunity to increase the number of bonus symbols.
The free spins: expanding and sticky wilds
The free spins are not the most spectacular I have seen.
The only difference compared to the main game, is that if you spin a wild, the whole reel immediately becomes wild. But even more beautiful is that the wild reel becomes sticky for the remaining free spins.
If you have two or more reels of sticky wilds, it can be very lucrative. Especially if you take into consideration that you can win both ways. For example, a sticky-stacked wild on reels 5 and 6 is just as exciting as on reels 1 and 2.
Payout percentage (RTP)
The payout percentage is 96.48%. Most Pragmatic Play slots have a payout rate of around 96.5%, and this slot is not different.
Starz Megaways slot – the variance (volatility) is high
Pragmatic Play gives a score of 5 out of 5 for the variance.
I expect most top wins to be above 1,000x. However, I want to see it before I believe it. In particular with Pragmatic Play slots.
Great Rhino Megaways (the first Pragmatic Play Megaways slot) and John Hunter book of Tut have a similar variance.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Fans of Starburst must be glad to see that there is a Megaways version of it.
- Futuristic look.
- Enormous win potential.
Cons
- In terms of gameplay and features a bit dull.
- Not comparable to slots like Holy Diver Megaways, Who Wants To Be a Millionaire Megaways or Royal Mint Megaways.
- If you don’t bag a massive win, you’re usually going to end up losing.
So, who will like the slot? And who won’t?
If you like Starburst and Megaways slots, this slot is perfect for you. Will go to infinity, and beyond, with Starz Megaways?
For the experienced Megaways player, this slot doesn’t add much.
