Beam Up Wins in Expansion! Slot
Mars Attacks was one of the first alien science fiction movies I ever watched. I was probably far too young to be watching it, but I was enthralled and have been by the genre ever since. As a result, I am always excited to see another alien/space-themed slot arrive at BitStarz. Today, we have Expansion! slot from BetSoft Gaming to try out.
So, grab your ray gun, jump into your intergalactic transport ship, and blast off across the galaxy.
Your intergalactic journey starts here
The most visually impressive feature in Expansion! slot is the directional wilds. When a wild symbol appears on the reels, it will transform into a ray gun and fire in one of the eight directions surrounding its position with the resulting ray turning any symbol it touches into a wild symbol. In the base game, the ray gun will only fire once. However, during free spins, after the first shot the ray gun will reposition and fire a second time in one of the remaining seven directions. Once the feature has concluded, the win will be calculated with all wilds present substituting for other symbols to complete winning combinations.
The appearance of three or more scatter symbols will trigger a round of the slot’s free spins feature. In addition to getting a second shot of the directional wilds ray gun, you will also receive a random multiplier on each and every spin with a value of between 2x and 10x.
If you’re not keen on waiting around to be abducted by aliens, you can select to purchase a round of the slot’s free spins feature. The slot’s buy bonus feature gives you the option to purchase either eight, twelve, or fifteen free spins.
Is Expansion! slot out of this world?
I’m a fan of science fiction. So give me a few flying saucers and some gorgeous space imagery, and I’m all in. Expansion! slot from BetSoft Gaming nails the theme. Its graphics are fantastic and the bonus features are so well integrated into the theme. It’s also great that instead of reserving bonus features for the free spins rounds, the slot offers a slightly diluted version in the base game. It makes the whole experience so much more engaging.
The slot has medium volatility, meaning that the gameplay has a nice balance between consistent smaller wins and less frequent larger wins. As a result of this balance, the max multiplier is fairly modest at 1,213x which means you’ll need to bet at €96 a spin to stand a chance to win the €116,448 max win. The slot has an RTP rating of 96.08%.
