Starburst is NetEnt's space-gem slot from 2012 and still one of the most played low-volatility games in online casino lobbies.
Quick facts - Provider: NetEnt (owned by Evolution) - Released: June 20, 2012 - Layout: 5 reels, 3 rows, 10 fixed paylines that pay both ways - RTP: 96.09% at the top setting. Lower versions exist (95.05%, 94.05%, 93.05%, 92.05%, 90.05%), so check the paytable at your casino - Volatility: Low - Max win: 500x your total bet
How the feature works There are no free spins. The whole game revolves around Starburst Wilds. A wild landing on reel 2, 3 or 4 expands to cover the full reel, locks in place, and gives you a free re-spin. If another wild lands during the re-spin, it expands and locks too, and you get another re-spin. You can end up with up to three wild reels and three re-spins in total.
Because wins pay left to right and right to left, small hits come along fairly often. That makes Starburst a popular pick for clearing playthrough or for players who want a long session on a modest budget.
Worth knowing / watch out for - The 500x cap is low compared with modern slots. Don't expect life-changing hits. - RTP depends on the operator. Open the game's info screen before you play to see which version you're on.
