Hyper Star Slot

Microgaming has been successful with their 9 Masks of Fire slot and some of its subsequent copies, and they also continue to expand their classic-inspired Hyper series. Hyper Star takes a different route, heading straight for Sin City with gonzo mechanics bolted to the Rolling Reels Multiplier Trail. Here you get 5 reels in 3 rows and 243 lines to create prize combinations and during the gameplay, you will meet different bonuses, which we will discuss below.

• Open Hyper Star at your chosen casino
• See payouts for combinations in the paytable
• Read the bonus feature rules
• Choose a bet: from €0.20 to €40
• Set the reels in motion and have fun!

This slot machine was created by Microgaming, a provider whose games are available in almost every online casino. We'll explain why. This company is the ancestor of online slots and progressive jackpots and has over 20 years of experience in the gambling market. Their portfolio of games is the largest. It includes slots, video poker, and table games, with new releases almost every week. All of their products are fully cross-platform, allowing you to play both at home and on the go. The main advantage of this gambling giant is their progressive jackpots, as their Mega Moolah and WowPot games have broken many records and paid out more than €1.45 billion in total.

This Hyper Star slot was developed in cooperation with Gameburger Studios

Rolling Reels

The Rolling Reels feature is active at all stages of the game. It removes all winning symbols from the playing field and allows new and/or existing symbols to fall from above to fill in the gaps. This profitable process continues as long as you keep winning!

The win multiplier increases with each subsequent tumble, and this feature awards a 1x, 2x, 3x, and 5x multiplier on initial land, 1, 2, and 3 tumbles, respectively. The bonus round, which we will detail below, has a default 3x multiplier and it goes up to 6x, 9x, and 15x.

Free Spins Bonus Round

As soon as 3 or more Free Spins symbols land during the same Rolling Reels sequence, the slot will trigger the Bonus Round. The Star Wild symbol can substitute for Scatters to help you trigger this feature.

You get 8 free spins for each trigger path but reels 4 and 5 do not count when it comes to free spins rewards. You need at least 3 trigger symbols (or 1 or 2 combined with Wilds) to re-trigger the free spins bonus round.

The game comes with high volatility so it's no surprise that its max win potential is a staggering 7,343x the bet or €290,000. You will be able to get that massive max prize with the bonus round multipliers and the jackpot feature (read below).

Jackpot

You can win jackpots both in the base game and during the bonus round, and you will find that all Wild symbols are collected under the jackpot counter. The Jackpot feature can be triggered at any time at the end of Rolling Reels and Jackpot Wheel awards 1 of 3 jackpots: 15x Minor, 100x Major, and 5,000x Grand.

A glossy presentation of Vegas design may appeal to a certain audience but turn off other players. We've seen this thread so many times that we have a name for it, but we're glad that Microgaming has at least moved away from the endless 9 Masks of Fire imitators with this release. This is a decent slot in their Hyper series, with the ever-popular gonzo mechanic strong throughout the game.

The use of special Wild Symbols as substitutes for Free Spins symbols is great as it not only helped us kick off the Bonus Round but also helped us get a lot of extra spins and the 5,000x top jackpot pays more than double what is offered in many clones of 9 Masks of Fire.
