Slot Features
After just a couple of quick spins you will surely notice that the game has to offer mega symbols that will increase your chance of forming a win. The symbols on the reels have 3 different sizes.
Wild
Wild symbol can substitute for all the symbols in the game except for the Bonus symbol. The symbol can appear on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5, and each time it hits in the base game it will expand vertically with the symbols of the same size to fill the entire reel.
Respins
Bonus symbol triggers two different features. Landing them on the reels during the base game will cause them to remain locked on the reels in a position where they landed, and remain there for a respin that will be triggered right after.
Free Spins
Landing 3 Bonus symbols on the reels will trigger Free Spins features and award 6, 8, 10 or 15 spins which depends on the number of triggering symbols. During the round, all Wilds that land on the reels will expand to fill the entire reel, and they will remain sticky until the round ends.
Summary
Starz Megaways is definitely one of those slots whose design will remind you of so many others, but far as we can tell, that’s only design department, because the feature departments seems fairly interesting and does not seem to be a straight copy of any of the other games that we’ve seen thus far. It is highly volatile slot with 96.48% RTP and maximum payouts that can reach up to x10000 your bet. Give it a few spins and let us know what you think of it.
Starz Megaways is one of the latest games from Pragmatic Play and I discovered it a few weeks ago while playing at Videoslots. I haven't heard of this release, but I noticed it when playing at Videoslots in their new games section, and I decided to give it a try. The first thought that popped into my mind that it would be Starburst megaways version and I wasn't too far off the truth.
The game itself has megaways structure so at any spin the megaways change, and of course what you're looking for is a good win with high megaways amount for a higher payout. I have to say that I quite enjoyed the design, the game was inspired by galaxy and stars theme so you'd see stars and gems as game symbols. I'm not a huge fan of pragmatic Play games but this one was really up my alley. In this game what you want to see is stars- if they appear in a winning combination, they will expand and give a respin, similar to Starburst. I have had a few decent base game hits around 50x bet on base game because of 2 wild star reels combined with gems. Also, the minimum bet for this game is 0.20 cents per spin but in my experience it is a good wagering slot as it was actually giving me frequent base game wins and I was up on the game.Â
When I first noticed the bonus symbols, I was quite curious what the bonus round would be as I didn't know what to expect. When you get 3 or more bonus symbols anywhere on the reels, the bonus symbols will stay put and the other reels will respin once in hopes for an additional bonus symbol, but so far it hasn't happened to me. For 3 bonus symbols you get 6 free spins and they are a hit or a miss. in the bonus round, whenever you land a wild, it expands and stays as a sticky wild during the bonus round. So it is possible to have several wild reels if you're lucky enough- my best result was having 2 wild reels during free spins with matching combinations as the game pays both ways for a win around 100x bet.Â
Overall this is one of my favorite games from Pragmatic Play, it is simple yet has a lot of potential and the gameplay is enjoyable. The free spins though are very volatile and unless you land a wild reel quickly, you can end up with as little as 10x bet which has happened to me multiple times. All in all, I think this is a game worth trying.
