Starlight Princess 1000 slot

Starlight Princess 1000 plays like the original with the numbers turned up. The 6x5 grid pays for 8 or more matching symbols anywhere, winners tumble away, and multiplier symbols sit on the reels in both the base game and the feature. The change is the top of the multiplier ladder. Where the first game stopped at 500x, this one carries 1,000x symbols, and the maximum win rises to 15,000 times the stake, three times the original cap.

The arithmetic is unchanged. When a spin's tumbles end, every multiplier symbol on screen is added together and applied to that spin's win total. A 1,000x on a board that also won R15 pays R15,000 plus the rest of the multipliers. The trade is that the extra ceiling comes out of the average round: review tracking rates the volatility 5 out of 5, and a long run of base game spins that pay nothing is the normal experience, not a bad streak.

The free spins are triggered by 4, 5 or 6 scatters, which also pay 3x, 5x or 100x the stake on the way in. You get 15 spins, every multiplier that lands on a winning tumble is banked, and the bank is applied to every win that follows. Three more scatters add five spins. On a good round the bank crosses several hundred times before the spins run out. On a poor one the multipliers keep landing on boards with nothing to multiply.

Scorebet carries the game at the standard 96.5% RTP. The ante bet costs 25% extra per spin and doubles the number of scatters. The bonus buy costs 100x the stake, R200 on R2, and is only available with the ante bet off. Buying sets the RTP at 96.49%, a hair lower. Neither option changes the odds of the 1,000x symbol, it only changes how quickly you reach the room where it matters.
