Starlight Princess
Starlight Princess review
The engine that powers Gates of Olympus also fuels Starlight Princess, resulting in similar numbers and stats being generated as before. This translates to a default RTP value of 96.5%, though it's important to note that there are less generous versions at 95.51% and 94.50%. Just like its predecessor, the volatility is rated as high with an official 5 out of 5 rating from Pragmatic Play - the same as the previous game but higher than the original Sweet Bonanza. Catering to most players, a wide range of stakes is available starting at 20 p/c up to $/€100 per spin, and the Ante Bet feature remains accessible.
There are no wilds in Starlight Princess, but there are tumble features, multiplier symbols, free spins, and the ante bet mentioned above. In the tumble feature, all winning symbols disappear from the grid after winning combinations are paid. Symbols that remain fall to the bottom, and empty slots are filled with symbols that are above them. The tumble continues until no more winning combinations appear.
Whenever a winged heart symbol lands on all reels, it will multiply by between x2 and x500. Multiplier symbols appear on all reels randomly during all spins and when tumbles occur. In order to calculate a final prize value, the multipliers on the screen are added up and added to the total win at the end of the tumble sequence. Free spins are awarded when four or more scatter symbols are landed on the screen. Any multiplier symbol that lands on a winning spin during free spins is added to the total multiplier displayed on the upper left. Any new multiplier symbol that hits during free spins is multiplied by the total multiplier value. The round is accompanied by a bonus of +5 free spins if three or more scatters appear.
Last but not least, players can activate the Ante Bet, which doubles their chance of triggering free spins.
