Blazing Star slot summary
Blazing Star slot is a very basic slot, similar to Novomatic's Sizzling Hot and equally low involvement for the player. The old-fashioned slot music plays as we spin, and rapid taps when reels stop remind me of something I could have created on an old Acorn PC. The symbols fit with the era too so at the moment we have a totally anonymous game, but could it get our money moving?
On the reels...
Now as soon as I mention '5 pay lines' you'll feel the anticipation of very high volatility coursing through your veins, as is the case with Merkur's Vampires and Knight's Life 5-lines, but unlike this game they have a bonus round.
All we get here is 5 reels of 3 rows with all symbols stacked in the form of fruits, except for the Blazing Star (which is actually a Sun by the looks of things). The single Suns pay us a huge 1000x bet for a 5-of-a-kind win with Grapes and Melons 200x, Plums, Lemons and Oranges 50x and the lowly Cherries a mere 40x.
Unlike Sizzling Hot though there isn't even a basic scatter pay and wins only pay left-to-right here, but in common with that slot no Wilds appear either.
Our View...
Blazing Star is as basic as online slots get, yet there are players that like these simple slots and the potential for big hits. The game's volatility is surprisingly low for the format as frequent small wins of the lower symbols occur to maintain your balance while waiting for the big hits to arrive and the RTP is a reasonable 96%. Graphics, sounds and animations are nondescript but it is what it is, and more importantly non too-brutal on your balance...
