Rules

With the mention of the gods of prosperity, status, and longevity, some punters might come here with the prospect of getting something for free. And guess what? They are not wrong to think that because with a pay-in of €0.10, it feels like you are getting something for free. (*clears throat*) And for those of us who are brave enough to show their worth to the gods for higher rewards, we are not left out as the game allows room to increase the wager up to €200!

Because Star Gods is a medium to high volatility slot, it is quite hard for anyone to predict how a Star Gods session will be like in terms of the payouts. You could either start triggering small frequent wins as soon as you take the first spin or go for a long spell without wins to eventually land a big win.

When it comes to the actual gameplay and the paytable, the latter might disappoint you as it only brags a max payout of 30X with its array of Asian-themed symbols such as fortune cats, pagodas, and traditional coins. Not to worry, however, this potential flaw is covered by the fact that the gameplay utilizes a Both Ways Pays Format, meaning that combinations will play from both left and right.

Star Gods Re-spins

If you are out for the special features in Star Gods, then you should be on the lookout for the game’s star symbol. It can show up on reel 2, 3, or 4, and when it does, it transforms into a stacked star god symbol (wild) for the imminent re-spin, where a win is guaranteed.

Bonus Round

The Star Gods Slot also comes with a bonus round, which is unlocked by aligning a golden ingot alongside any of the star god symbols. It only rewards you with only 2 free spins, but the god symbol responsible for triggering the round will stick to guarantee wins upfront. Any new wilds that creep up before the end of the session will also stick, while still awarding a re-spin.

Verdict

Oriental video slots are all the rage today and seeing a new entry into the slots market such as Golden Rock Studios tackle it is an indication that they are playing their cards right. The aesthetic of the game might not be up to everyone’s taste, and the 2 free spins in the bonus round might not quite cut it, but who knows? Some of us would prefer 2 free spins where wins are guaranteed overtaking chances with a whole bunch of uncertain free spins. This is especially considering that if you are lucky to land more scatters in Star Gods before the bonus session ends, you will be awarded two to five extra free spins, where wins are guaranteed as well!
