Hot Star

Hot Star keeps the classic fruit layout – 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines – and adds a star wild that spreads. Whenever the star lands, it substitutes for any symbol and turns the neighbouring symbols into wilds, which can complete several lines at once. Melons, berries, cherries, oranges, lemons and the lucky 7 make up the rest of the reels, with five 7s paying 12,500 coins. There is no scatter and no free spins round. Low volatility, a 95.89% RTP and stakes from €0.10 to €10 with a €1,360 maximum win keep the swings small. It is aimed at casual players who like frequent wins without a complicated bonus.

There is no background art; the game title sits above the reels and turns into a win counter when a line pays. A soundtrack and a win tone accompany play, and no download is needed.

The lucky 7 pays 12,500 coins for five, and three cherries pay 250 coins.

Players set the paylines and the bet with the lines and bet buttons, from 1 to 500 coins, and can let auto start handle the spins.

Ten paylines pay from left to right, with at least three matching symbols on an active line needed for a win. Five lucky red 7s give the top line award of 12,500 coins.

The star is the wild: it substitutes for every symbol and turns the symbols next to it into wilds as well. There is no scatter or free spins round.

The gamble option offers to double a win on the right colour or quadruple it on the right suit.
