About Starmania
Starmania is a crafty little video slot, which has a lot in common with Net Ent’s similarly themed Starburst game. We wouldn’t go as far to say they are too alike, though. After all, in our opinion, Starmania is considerably better, since it has more bonus features for you to enjoy. The video slot is played over a total of 5 reels and 10 paylines, with players able to select coin bets of 0.01 up to 2.00 in total. This will see a floor bet of 0.10, and a ceiling bet of 20.00 present in the Starmania slot. With the right amount of luck, could win as much as 500 coins in this non-progressive video slot, which has a star, jewel and gem theme running throughout it.
Special Features
Over to the special features, and the wild is pretty basic in Starmania. Players can use it to substitute for all other symbol sin the game, barring the bonus icon. Wilds can only appear on the second, third, and fourth reels in total, and they do not offer you any winnings on their own.
However, scatter icons can. If 3, 4, or 5 of these scatter icons appear in any position on the reels, then you are guaranteed to be walking away with wins worth 20x, 100x, or 200x your total bet. Scatter icons take the shape of a square with the word “bonus” written across it.
Rather unusually for NextGen Gaming, they have chosen not to implement a gamble feature in this game. Players are going to have to rely solely on the wins they pick up on the reels of the base game, and free spins game, then.
Bonus Feature
Should the player manage to find 3 or more scattered bonus icon in any positions on the screen, then they will affectively trigger a free spins bonus round. The free games feature will see players awarded with a total of 10 free spins. During this bonus, they will also prosper from stacked wild icons. These stacked wilds are added to the reels during free spins, and the bonus can even be retriggered by landing more icons on the reels. This bonus round is decent enough, and it does make the slot stand out from the similarly themed Starburst. In fact, the special features are better in this game, so it’s definitely worth a look.
