Starburst is our favourite online slot of all time and one of the most popular slots in the world. Despite being released in 2012, it's still one of the most played slots today, and it's easy to see why. The game looks stunning and the graphics and animations belies its age. While the gameplay is simple, it's also incredibly rewarding, and there's a surprising amount of depth in the bonus features.

How To Play

This five-reel, three-row slot has several exciting features, including Win Both Ways and the expanding Starburst wild. If you like fast-paced, high-energy slots, the Starburst slot offers many fun features that make the game a memorable experience. And of course, the potential for big wins is astronomical! The anticipation of winning is increased to the maximum. Arcade-like lighting effects follow wins, and the Big Win presentation is breathtaking: explosions of light, flashing text, electrifying sounds - it's a rush like no other.

The symbols of Starburst are many beautifully designed gems, each with its own colour and shape. There are five gems in total and two other high paying symbols, the lucky number seven and the Gold BAR. Gold BARs are the highest paying symbol in the game and if you land five of them on a line, you will get a big win!

Features

Win in both directions

Most slots require you to combine symbols on a line from the left side of the reels to the right side. However, in our Starburst slot, wins pay from both the left and the right. This increases your chances of winning and makes Starburst a firm favourite of many players around the world.

Wilds

Wilds are the main bonus symbol in the Starburst slot and help you to form winning combinations by substituting for other paying symbols. Not only that, when a wild lands, it expands to cover the entire reel.

Respins

Expanding wilds activate the free respins feature in Starburst. Each time a wild expands to cover a reel, the wild stays in place and the reels are re-spun. This can be triggered up to three times, which can lead to a big win!

Conclusion

Starburst is a very attractive looking game that offers some interesting variations with its frozen wild symbol bonus and double sided paylines.

We like many aspects of this game, especially the simple, clean gameplay design. Unfortunately, its average RTP and low volatility make it more suitable for casual players. Our strategies work better on games with high volatility.
