About Power Stars
Power Stars comes from the vaults of Novomatic, and can is a land-based it as well as an online casino game. The Power Stars slot is quite similar to many other top Novomatic slots which can be played online, in that it carries generic fruit symbols, and only a few sparse special features. Power Stars doesn’t have too much to offer in terms of paylines, with just ten of those spanning the game’s 5 reels. On the upside, players can adjust the paylines in the game as they see fit, with wagers stretching from 0.01 up to 100.00 a turn. A non-progressive jackpot worth 100x a total bet is yours if you can bag 5 of the red sevens on a line in this game, which features an RTP (return to player) rate which sits comfortably at the industry standard level of 95.5%.
Special Features
Novomatic tends to produce a rather considerable number of classic, fruit machine-style slots and very few of them contain special features. That happens to be the case with Power Stars, too, although it is not entirely without any sort of goodies.
There is a gold star which shows up as a wild symbol in this release. That wild can substitute for all regular paying icons in the game and can trigger the slot’s only real special feature, which we will come to in just a moment.
Also worked into this game’s design is a Pays Both Ways gaming engine. In short, this means that players can win with combos running from left to right, as in any slot, but also from the right reel to the leftmost one.
As is often the case with Novomatic slots, a gamble bonus has been made available to you, although it is not something you should trigger lightly. There is a 50% chance of success (no higher) in this round, so players are advised only to gamble small wins, and not jackpot prizes.
Bonus Feature
Back to the wild symbols now, and the one-off special features that they can trigger. Known as the Golden Star Wild, this is essentially an expanding wild bonus. When wilds land on the second, third and fourth reels, they can expand to occupy the entire reel they pop up on. At the same time, a free re-spin will be offered, with the expanding wild acting as a sticky wild for that spin. However, if any wild lands during the spin, a further re-spin is provided to players, and so on, until no new wilds appear.
