Play Starburst Online Slot

Introduction

At first glance, Starburst appears to be a simple 10 payline slot game with sparkling symbols.

It doesn’t have the draw of a progressive jackpot or symbols that are paying out 2,000x  the line bet. This begs the question, why is Starburst one of the most popular slot games for NZ punters?

The reason is simple; it offers punters exactly what they want. It’s a low variance game that has nice payouts and doesn’t have to rely on extra features and bonuses that can be distracting. Wins are calculated going in both directions, and an expanding wild can increase your odds of winning.

Jackpots

While it might not have a progressive jackpot, but it still offers punters the opportunity to win a nice sized jackpot. If you make the maximum $10 bet and line up 5 of the BAR symbols in a row, it will pay out $2,500. If you can get the BAR symbol across all 10 paylines, your jackpot win could reach $25,000.

Rules

Starburst has 10 paylines and pays out wins going in either direction, provided it starts with one of the first reels on either side. There is an autoplay feature that allows you to play up to 100 spins in a row without changing your wager or clicking on the spin button.

• Coins: There are two parts to a bet in a NetEnt game
  • Coin value: In Starburst, the coins range from $0.01 to $1.
  • Bet Level: You can choose each coin up to 10x per line.

By choosing the smallest coin and a Bet Level of 1, you can make the minimum $0.10 bet. The maximum bet of $100 requires the $1 coin and a Bet Level of 10.

• Symbols: There are just 7 symbols in Starburst. It has a mix of classic symbols, like BAR, which is the most valuable, and the lucky number 7. The other 5 symbols are a collection of sparking coloured jewels. You can see the complete paytable in the chart below.
  
• Wild: The Starburst Wild symbol can land on reels 2, 3, and 4 and can trigger the slot games bonus feature.
  
• Scatter: There is no scatter in Starburst.
• Bonus Feature: The wild symbol triggers a respin, and the wild symbol will expand to cover the entire reel. The feature can be retriggered up to 3x.

Software and Mobile Experience

One of the best things about the simple layout of Starburst is how NetEnt was able to optimize it for mobile devices. The only real difference is when you want to change your bet. Instead of the stake options being located under the reels, you will have to click on the “Hamburger” menu to open the betting page. This will open the slider, and you can change the Coin Size and Bet Level.

The game can be played in both portrait and landscape mode, and you’ll have the option to move the Spin button from the left side of the reels to the right side.

Conclusion 

Starburst gives punters a chance to play a classic slot game, with a chance at high payout, but omes with limited features. The expanded Wild respin feature will add a bit of excitement to every spin. Register your account today and collect a Welcome Bonus with your first deposit.
