This isn’t your regular pirate-themed slot game and it begins from the basic setup of the reels as you’ll soon see.

Booty Bay is a 5-reel slot that uses the Cluster Pays mechanic. This means that a win is gotten when you land a cluster of 6 or more matching symbols.

The treasure chest is the Booty Wild. This substitutes for all the standard symbols when it forms part of a winning combination. Known as the Booty Wilds feature, these symbols can also come with a multiplier attached. The Booty Bay hotzone is a 3×3 reel grid in the middle of the game’s regular reel. When a Booty Wild lands there, unlimited respins come in during which all wilds shift to an adjoining position. The multiplier value of the Wild increases by 1 if a Wild symbol changes position after a respin.

When Treasure Map is triggered by the treasure map symbol, you’ll be able to choose from 6 shuffled hidden prizes. You could land various symbols to trigger other bonus features or win a cash reward between 1 and 5,000x the worth of your total bet.

Netent’s Celebrates Launch of New Starburst XXXtreme

February 21, 2024 William Mcmaster

There aren’t many online slot games that deserve the ‘legendary’ tag but if there is one that does, it is definitely Starburst. The iconic slot game was released in 2013 by NetEnt and has since risen to become a must-play for slot game lovers. However, over the years, fierce competition has come up with newer slots with new game mechanics, themes, and bonuses. This month, NetEnt released a sequel to the game titled ‘Starburst XXXtreme’ to reinforce its position as a truly legendary slot game brand.

According to NetEnt, Starburst XXXtreme “blends the original recipe from the classic game with a monumental boost of rocket fuel, including monumental win potential.” Players have looked forward to the game’s release since it was first announced and have now begun to pour into online casinos to have a taste of the all-new space experience (NetEnt, 2021).

How to Play Starburst XXXtreme

Starburst XXXtreme is played on a 5×3 reel grid with 9 paylines, which is one less than what was available in the original. These paylines also pay in one direction only. The bet levels are between 20c and $100 per spin. Winning a payout requires that the player lands three to five matching symbols from left to right on a payline, beginning with the leftmost one.

It is a highly volatile slot with a hit frequency rate of 20% and massive rewards, the top prize being a jaw-dropping 200,000x the worth of the stake per spin.

The Starburst XXXtreme paytable is the same as what is available in the original slot with the same seven symbols. The Bar remains the highest-paying symbol, followed by the 7s, and then, the sparkling gems which are the least-paying symbols.

Features of Starburst XXXtreme

For people who have wondered what the ’XXX’ in the game’s title stands for, the answer lies in its features. As if to compensate for the removal of a payline and the one-directional payment of the rest, NetEnt’s Starburst XXXtreme offers more multipliers than the original game.

The Starburst Wilds appear on the three middle reels and substitute for all other symbols. They also expand and award a respin and random multiplier. The Random Wilds feature is randomly triggered after a spin or re-spin. Up to three Wild Symbols land on the three middle reels to award a random multiplier, the highest being 150x (SoftGamings, 2021).

The juiciest Starburst XXXtreme feature is XXXtreme Spins, but it comes with a special twist. This feature lets players buy spins that will land guaranteed Starburst Wilds on the reels. With 10x the cost of a stake per spin, one Starburst Wild is guaranteed to land and with 95x the stake, two are sure to land on the reels.

Where to Play Starburst XXXtreme

Starburst XXXtreme is now available at top online casinos in the online gambling space. You can play the game today at any of our recommended casinos for an immersive experience and huge payout opportunities.

We’re back this week to run you through the latest online slots from some of the best software providers around. The online casino space is constantly updated with multiple new slots and it is possible to sometimes get overwhelmed by the new releases. That’s why we carefully research the most recently released online slots out there and recommend the best ones. Read on to find out the best new slots for week 26 of 2021 based on themes, gameplay, visuals, and bonus features.

5 New Slots To Check Out

This week, the best casino software providers have combined to offer us premium gaming experiences with entertaining slots loaded with features that will leave your pockets feeling quite satisfied. Our top new slots for this week are from Yggdrasil, Big Time Gaming, Microgaming, NetEnt, and Pragmatic Play. Let’s reveal them.

Gargoyle Infinity Reels

Gargoyles are most popularly known for being lifeless extensions of ancient Gothic structures, but the giant creatures come to life in the Boomerang Studio-designed Gargoyle slot. The slot utilizes Reelplay’s widely-loved and very rewarding Infinity Reels mechanism, meaning that you get more reels as you make more wins.

Gargoyle Infinity Reels come with pretty impressive visuals, with the default 3×3 reel layout sitting at the peak of an ancient castle, lit by hanging torches and candles. Greyish stone gargoyles surround the reels, and in the distance, you can see the spires of some other towers. The slot is of high volatility and comes with an RTP of 95.76%.

Golden playing card spades, clubs, hearts, and diamonds make up the lower-paying reel symbols. The high-paying symbols are a blue, red, purple, and green gargoyle, and they pay anywhere between 0.6 – 1.8X your stake when landed on the reels. With every winning combination, the reels freeze in place, and a fourth reel is introduced to the right. If the new reel contains the winning symbol, it adds to your win and then freezes in place, allowing a fifth reel to show up. As the name of the mechanism implies, this could go on until you have an infinite number of reels on your screen.

The game reverts to the default reel layout when a new reel is introduced that doesn’t contain the winning symbol. A glowing diamond acts as the Scatter that triggers the free spins round, while a giant gargoyle represents the Wild, substituting for every symbol that isn’t the scatter.

Land there or more diamond symbols to activate the Gargoyle Infinity Reels bonus round. You’re rewarded with ten free spins and a special version of the giant gargoyle wild. When this new wild appears during the free spins, new reels expand to heights of 4, 5, or 6 rows, increasing your chances of improving your win. If you’re lucky enough to land a wild on a 6-row high reel, you get the chance to spin a special wheel that could reward you with up to 888X your stake.

Big Time Gaming have combined a farming theme with friendly, cartoonish visuals to give us the Beef Lightning slot, powered by the famous Megaways payline system. The 6×7 reel layout is set against the backdrop of an old-school cow farmyard littered with a farmhouse, windmill, wooden fence and surrounded by grassy fields. A lively soundtrack adds to the absorbing nature of the scenery. The slot comes with a standard return to player of 96.43% and is categorized as having high volatility.

Regular symbols are the card royals while high-value symbols include a horseshoe, a bell, a cow, and a bull poking its head out of a barn. The latter is the slot’s premium symbol. These symbols pay anywhere between 0.3X and 20X your bet when landed in a winning combination.

Winning combinations are made when you land 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the left side of the screen. With the Bull symbol, you only need to match two on adjacent reels to form a winning combination. The branded ‘Wild’ symbol can land anywhere on reels 2-6, and it replaces all other symbols when it lands as part of a winning combination.

When all 6 reels are filled up with symbols, the 117,649 Megaways paylines are activated. One particularly rewarding feature of this game is the Reactions feature. Following each winning combination, the matching symbols are removed and new symbols fall onto the reels in their place, giving you the chance to make even bigger wins. Reactions will keep happening as long as the new symbols continue to create winning combinations.

The Duplicating Wild feature is triggered randomly on cascades or regular spins. When activated, the wild symbols duplicate to fill up to 3 different reels, forming a very rewarding winning combination. Land the M and O scatters in an order that spells out the word MOO to activate the Free Spins round, where you are rewarded with 12 free spins and a Cow Auction that could leave you with up to 25,000X your stake.

With a bet range of 0.2 – 120 and a low volatility categorization, this slot will certainly suit budget gamers and mid-rollers. The reels come in a 5×3 layout and are set against a backdrop consisting of the type of snow-covered mountains that typified the stone age.

Wolves, bears, rhinos, and sabertooth tigers make up the list of regular symbols; single, double or triple 7s form the high-value symbols, paying up to 37.5X your stake. Wilds, depicted with a giant W symbol, replace all other regular symbols but also pay 125X your stake when landed for five of a kind. The golden mammoth is the scatter symbol.

A-J card royals adorn the reels and offer players regular pay when landed as part of winning combinations, with the more lucrative symbols consisting of Art Nouveau-crafted animal jewels.

Land two peacock scatters together with a regular winning combination to trigger the Fortune Re-spins round.

The winning symbol becomes a special collectible symbol that can appear alongside the key symbol; the former adds to the meter by the left of the screen and grants you another re-spin while the latter takes you to a new level with bigger payouts.

Codex Fortune’s Free Spins bonus round is triggered by landing 3 scatters simultaneously anywhere on the reels. During this round, a triple-edged bonus wheel spins to determine the number of free spins, special collectible symbols, and key symbols that you receive.

If your winning combination is made up of high value symbols, the winning symbol replaces all the other high value symbols on the respin. If your combination is made up of low value symbols, they replace all symbols of low value in the respin. Winning with more than 3 symbols gets you Colossal Symbol Blocks on the respin. Here, the symbols land as 2×2, 3×3 or 4×4 blocks when you win with 4, 5 or 6 of a kind, respectively.

This sequel features a higher max win, an extra reel when compared with the original. Easter Island II has a wide betting range, and exciting features that can win you as much as 2,500 times your wager.

5 New Slots To Check Out

Some of the best new slots this week 6 of 2021 come from developers Just For The Win, NetEnt, Quickspin, Pragmatic Play, and Play’n GO. Let’s look closely at these developers’ slot releases this week.

Juicy Joker Mega Moolah

One of the largest progressive jackpots online is back in one of the new slots this week 6 of 2021. Microgaming partner Just For The Win serves us a slot that carries classic symbols — fruits and joker. Juicy Joker Mega Moolah sports a simple yet lively look with its 20-payline, 5×3 grid in a well-lit golden frame. The jackpot counter on the left, which also has a golden-colored frame, adds to the attraction.

As mentioned above, this slot has classic symbols of fruits and jokers making up the paytable. Just For The Win armed the game with three wilds — a regular wild, a Respin Wild, and a Juicy Wild. They all substitute for other symbols to form winning combinations and pays 25x your bet for five of a kind.

Increasing immense win possibilities are the Returning Wild and free spin features. However, the absolute star of this slot is the jackpot game. Three joker symbols landing on the middle three reels triggers the Progressive Jackpot Wheel.

The wheel awards either cash prizes or any one of the four jackpot prizes. Cash prizes up for grabs are 1x, 2x, or 3x the stake. As for the jackpot prizes, you have Mini, Minor, Major, or Mega jackpot to look forward to. All are progressive jackpots with seeds of £/€10, £/€100, £/€10,000, and £/€1,000,000, respectively.

Rome: The Golden Age

NetEnt’s new addition to its library of slots this week 6 of 2021 relives the Roman gladiators’ days. Worry not because there will be no blood splattering on you while playing Rome: The Golden Age. The 5- reel grid sits high on an arena’s terrace with marble floors and columns and statues on either side. The grid is quite unusual with its rows in a 3-4-5-4-3 layout. Nevertheless, the game has 20 fixed paylines where at least three matching symbols should land to form winning combinations.

There are five low-paying and four premium symbols on the paytable. The wild, which substitutes for other symbols, also carries a value of 5x the stake for five of a kind. One special symbol to watch out for is the Golden Age symbol. This may turn into a Rome symbol that then turns into a wild symbol.

The Golden Age symbol is also your key to collecting multipliers from x1 to x1000. These multipliers are applied at the end of the free spins. So, collecting as many multipliers as possible before triggering the free spins round enhances your free spin winnings. Rome symbols also reveal wins from 0.5 up to 50x at the end of the bonus round.

Number of Paylines: 20	RTP: 96.06%

Dinosaur Rage

Quickspin’s Ark of Mystery slot heroine, Anna the Explorer, is ready to take on a new adventure this week. This time, you’ll accompany her as she travels back in time to face some temperamental dinosaurs in Dinosaur Rage. You don’t need to be nervous, as the prehistoric jungle on the background of the 5×4 game area looks refreshing. Moreover, the enraged dinosaurs will be of help in enhancing win potentials.

Pay symbols on the low side consist of teeth and bones designed to the shape of 10 to A royals. Dinosaurs and Anna comprise the premiums with our lovely heroine as the highest-paying symbol. She also stands 1×4 in size, while the dinosaurs come in 1×2 to 1×4 sizes. What’s even more impressive are the pay-anywhere symbols. You’ll score a win as long as such symbols land on paylines regardless if they aren’t adjacent with each other.

Pay-anywhere symbols are particularly beneficial during Dinosaur Rage! Free Spins. When 3, 4, or 5 scatters land, you’ll get 10, 15, or 25 free spins, respectively. In addition to free spins, you’ll also get 1, 2, or 3 upgrades, respectively. Upgrades will enrage a dinosaur at random, turning it into a pay-anywhere symbol. The scatter symbols can still land during the bonus round to award free spins and upgrade.

The last feature is the bonus buy for those who want a shortcut to the free spin round. You can pay 75x or 150x your bet for 3 or 4 scatters landing on the next spin.

Number of Paylines: 1,024	RTP: 96.11%
Min Bet: 0.20	Max Bet: 100
Max Payout: 17,794x	Software Provider: Quickspin

The Hand of Midas

Making our list of new slots this week 6 of 2021 is Pragmatic Play’s The Hand of Midas. Its huge 5×3 grid with 20 paylines almost covered what look like ruins of a once majestic castle chamber. Perhaps, the room belongs to King Midas himself? Your guess is as good as ours. What we’re sure of is you need at least 3 matching symbols from the leftmost reel onwards to score a win.

The paytable houses several symbols with six low-paying ones and six premiums. Five of a kind of premiums pay from 5x to 20x your bet. Wilds can only land on reels 2, 3, or 4 to replace other symbols and help form winning combinations. They carry random 1x, 2x, or 3x multipliers applied to the total win.

Trigger the free spin round with 3 scatter symbols, and you’ll get more rewarding features. There are wilds that become sticky and win multipliers that do not reset with each spin. Depending on your location, the buy feature may or may not be available to you. If available, you can purchase free spins for 100x, 200x, or 300x the stake.

Thunder Screech

Making it to our selection of new slots this week 6 of 2021 is Play’n GO’s Thunder Screech. The 5×3 grid stands high and mighty on a vast clearing, yet you can still see the picturesque view behind it. The great visual created an overall relaxing vibe as you try your luck on the 10-payline wooden-framed game area.

The symbols at the paytable follow the nature theme. Planks of wood were nailed together to form the low-paying 10 to A royals. Crows, foxes, skunks, otters, and beavers comprise the premiums, paying 10x to 75x your bet for five of a kind.

The Thunderbird totem wild can land on the middle three reels to help form winning combinations. The Call feature, which activates at random, adds 5 to 8 wilds on the grid. The Strike feature, which also triggers at random, turns regular wilds into Thunder Wilds. These wild symbols are sticky, carry win multipliers and trigger respins.

The dream catcher is the scatter symbols that trigger free spin when they land on reels 1, 3, and 5. During the bonus round, all regular wilds turn into Thunder Wilds. You can also be sure of a Thunder Wild landing on every spin. So, multipliers come into play during the round.

Number of Paylines: 10	RTP: 96.20% (Default)
