Cricket Star Slot Review

How to Play Cricket Star

Cricket Star is a five-reel slots game with a 243 ways to win format, paying from left to right. The gameplay is simple to understand and new players should be able to quickly pick up the rules. To win, all players have to do is land three or more matching symbols on the same line. One thing we did appreciate was the range of customizable options such as auto-spin and lightning mode – these will appeal to more advanced players. Before you start betting with real money, you can test out the gameplay and play for free in demo mode at our free slots game library.

In terms of symbols, Cricket Star goes all out. There are no lower paying card symbols and instead the reels are filled with well-designed, cricket-themed illustrations. The highest paying symbol is the batsman in green and yellow hitting a winning shot – land five in a row to receive 500 coins from a maximum bet of 50 coins. The next highest paying symbol is the bowler in blue which pays out 250, then the yellow wicket keeper which pays out 200, and then the batsman in blue and red which pays out 175.

Cricket Star Jackpots and Bonuses

The cricket ball is the game’s scatter symbol – hit three or more anywhere on the reels to unlock a free spin bonus round. Here’s a breakdown of how many free spins players can expect to receive depending on the number of symbols in-play:

• Three cricket balls – 15 free spins
• Four cricket balls – 20 free spins
• Five cricket balls – 25 free spins

During the free spins round, the rolling reels feature will be active, which works to replace winning symbols and line up even more wins. On top of that, the rolling reels will accumulate up to 10x multipliers after each win! The free spins element is the game’s power play, and as such, cannot be re-triggered in one session.

In addition to the free spins round, Cricket Stars has a wild symbol in the form of the Cricket Star logo that can help line up further wins. The wild comes on screen to replace other symbols and help form a win, with stacked wilds appearing on reels 3, 4, and 5. There’s also a ‘Wild Wickets’ special feature that is triggered completely randomly and transforms the second, third, or fourth reel to be completely wild. There’s no multiplier involved, but it will often guarantee a win for players.

Cricket Star Mobile Options

Microgaming knows the importance of making their games mobile compatible, and the studio has done a very good job of scaling Cricket Star down to fit the small screen. We tested the slot on iOS, Android, and Windows devices and found the game ran smoothly across all three operating system. The graphics and effects are nice and sharp, and as long as your mobile software is up to date, your browser should have no problem running the game’s software. All in all, the gameplay is fairly simple, and so the game translates well to mobile.

Conclusion

Cricket Star is a solid slot game and will no doubt be a hit among sports fans. Though the game doesn’t have a progressive jackpot, the other bonus options go a long way towards making up for it. We especially liked the free spins round and that it can be paired with the rolling reels multiplier. All in all, we think there’s enough here to keep new and seasoned slots players interested. We’d happily recommended checking Cricket Star out – prepare to be bowled over!
