Play Starburst Slot Games

Don’t be blinded by all the bling when you play the Starburst slot games at Casino.com New Zealand. The reels are full of precious stones, but what you should be looking out for is the Starburst wild symbol, which can create up to three respins.

The animations are excellent and will keep you entertained, despite the lack of bonus features. For all the details - and to understand why Starburst has long been one of South Africa’s most popular online slots - continue reading our in-depth slot review.

Released back in 2012, Starburst may be approaching veteran status in online slot gaming terms, but it hasn’t lost any of its appeal. A Return to Player of 96.1% is nothing out of the ordinary these days, but the sheer playability of this title makes it one that players just keep on coming back to. Starburst’s low volatility means that you can expect those winning lines to come thick and fast.

• Game Type: 5 reels, 3 rows and 9 paylines video slot
• Return to Player (RTP): 96.01% - 96.26%
• Software Provider: Netent
• Volatility: Low (classic Starburst) – High (Starburst XXXtreme)
• Themes: Space
• Release Year: 2012 (classic Starburst) and 2021 (Starburst XXXtreme)

Starburst winning combinations start at three matching symbols and the only special symbol is the Starburst wild. Unlike the original Starburst game, which paid out wins going in both directions, Starburst only pays out wins going from left to right.

• Coin sizes: There are 39 stake sizes to choose from. The minimum bet is $0.10 and the maximum bet is $50. All payouts are based on the total set size.
• Symbols: Starburst has eight symbols in total, including the wild symbol. The BAR symbol is the highest paying symbol with a max payout of 50x, followed by the 7 symbol with a planet in the background.

Next are different coloured gems, some worth more than others. The yellow gem is the most valuable and pays out 6x, next is the green gem with a max payout of 5x your bet. The red gem pays out a max of 4x your bet. The blue and purple gem both pay the same, a max of 3x your bet.

Wild

The Starburst wild symbol can appear on the middle three reels. Not only will it substitute for all regular symbols, but it can expand to cover the entire reel and trigger a respin. The wild symbol also awards a random multiplier between 2x and 150x.

When more than one multiplier appears on a single spin, they are added together to create an even larger payout.

Scatter

There are no scatter symbols in Starburst.

Features

The Random Wilds feature is a randomly activated feature that can take place after any spin or respin. Up to three Starburst wild symbols are added to reels 2, 3, and 4.

You can increase your odds of triggering this feature by turning on the Activate XXXtre Spins. There are two options, for 10x your bet you will be guaranteed one Starburst XXXtreme wild symbol and for 95x your bet, you’re guaranteed at least two wilds.

There's no in-game jackpot in the Starburst slot games. The closest you can get to having a jackpot is hitting the max possible win.

You may get a big win, similar to a jackpot, if you trigger the 250x win by getting 5 of the high-paying icons.

NetEnt are constantly innovating in the search for the next big slot gaming smash hit, and over the years they have come up with many more classic slots:

• Dazzle Me: here is a NetEnt slot which looks visually similar to Starburst, although it is far from an imitation. Sparkling graphics and big wins are the name of the game here, where you can be dazzled by wins of up to 152,000 coins.
• Berry Burst: an entertaining slot with fruity graphics that look good enough to eat, Berry Burst uses features like expanding wilds and cluster pays to make for a great gaming experience. Wild symbols lead to respins, and if you reveal multiple wilds it can lead to big wins from clusters of five or more of the same symbol.

When you consider everything that Starburst online slots have to offer, from its rapid reels to its glittering graphics and high RTP, it’s easy to see why the game is so popular with players in New Zealand.

It’s a game that everyone has heard of; a game that most people have played, and like a fine wine, mature cheese, or Idris Elba, it just gets better with age!
