Play Starburst Online Slot Game

Introduction

They say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, and the same can be said about online slot games. There doesn’t appear to be anything special about Starburst. It’s a simple 10 payline without a true bonus feature. So what makes it one of the most popular casino games in the UK?

The answer is quite simple! Starburst is a low variance game with higher than average payouts. Players have proven that while bonuses and features are nice, they are not a requirement. That’s not to say that there are no advantages when playing this game. Your odds of winning are increased with wins going in both directions and an expanding wild symbol.

Jackpots

The top-paying BAR symbol has a max payout of 2,500x the line bet. Make the maximum £10 bet, and you can win a £2,500 payout if you get 5 on a single payline. That jackpot can increase to £25,000 if you manage to fill all 10 paylines with this symbol. 

Rules

Starburst is a win-in-both direction slot game, which is an advantage for the player. As long as there are 3 matching symbols on one of the 10 paylines, it doesn’t matter if the first symbol is on the first reel on the right or left. There is an autoplay option, which allows up to 99 straight games, but you won’t be able to change your bet while it’s running.

• Coins: There are 3 things to consider when pacing a bet:
  • Coin value: Choose a coin valued from 1p to £1.
  • Bet Level: This represents the number of times each coin is used per line. 
  • Lines: There are 10 active paylines, which means that each bet must be placed 10 times.

To place the maximum bet, you will need to use the £1 coin and a bet level of 10, which gets you a £10 per line bet, and since there are 10 paylines, the total bet is £100.  The minimum bet is 10p, which is a 1p coin and a Bet Level of 1, played on all 10 lines.  

• Symbols: There are 7 regular symbols in this slot game, and they are a mix of gemstones and classic slot game symbols. The BAR is the top paying symbol with a max payout of 250x the line bet, and it’s followed by the lucky number 7, that has a top payout of 120x. The remaining symbols are sparkling jewels in yellow, green, red, blue, and purple. These symbols have a max payout range from 25x – 60x. Check out the paytable below for complete payout details.
• Wild: The Starburst wild symbol only appears on the middle three reels. When you have 3 on the reels at once, it will trigger the respin feature.
• Scatter: There is no scatter.
• Bonus Feature: Players aren’t coming to Starburst for the bonus feature, but that doesn’t mean they won’t enjoy one when its offered. When 3 wild symbols land on the middle reels, it will trigger a respin, with one of the wild symbols expanding to cover the entire reel.

Software and Mobile Experience

Starburst is a mobile-friendly slot game. The creative minds at NetEnt were able to optimize the game to fit on the smaller screens, without taking away from the beauty of the desktop version. Some options, such as changing your bet that can be found on the desktop gameboard, had to be moved to the menu section. Click on the Hamburger menu button, and it will open the betting options. You can also check out the paytable, rules, and your betting history as well.

The game can be played in both landscape and portrait mode. There is no need to download any additional software to your mobile device, as long as you have a strong internet connection and a Slots Heaven UK account, you can just log in and start playing.
