Asteroids Slot Review

How to play   

The reels will have you jumping at this great opportunity to visit space. This game is powered by 5 reels, 5 rows, and 720 ways to win, which you will bet on. The – and + buttons will help you set up your bet manually since there's no Max Bet button. Betting on this slot will have you staking at least €0.50 and at most €25 per spin.

After placing your bet, click the green-yellow double-arrow button on the rightmost part of the bottom screen. Immediately before the Spin button is the Autoplay button, which will help you set up auto-spins up to 50. While setting these auto-spins, also ensure you set up your limit as shown alongside the autoplay options. The desktop version has tiny spacecraft flying in the background, making it is more suited to smoother gameplay than the mobile version.

Symbols and payouts

The payouts here are awarded based on a rather unconventional formula. The prizes are calculated by multiplying the bet amount with the symbol multiplier, and then divided by 50. The symbols on the reels are also space-themed, with the Space symbol as the highest, offering you 600x the win multiplier for 5 matching symbols.

The Space Shuttle symbol is next, with 5 on a win way offering 300x the win multiplier. Next, the Laser Gun and Satellite symbols will have you winning 250x and 200x the win multiplier for 5 on a win way, respectively. Finally, the Flying Saucer symbol will offer you 100x the win multiplier for landing 5 matching symbols.  

Lower rewarding symbols are available, with the A card symbol offering you 75x the win multiplier for 5 matching symbols on the reels. Land 5 of the K and Q card symbols on a win way and receive 60x the win multiplier each. The J and 10 card symbols will each offer you 50x the multiplier for 5 matching symbols. The WILD symbol will replace all other symbols except the Scatter symbol to form winning combinations in the base game.

Asteroids bonus features

The Asteroids bonus starts with the Free Games feature activated when 3 or more Scatter symbols are landed on the reels. For landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatters, you will win 10, 20, or 30 Asteroids free spins, respectively. All wins you make will be granted multiplier values during the feature, including 2x, 5x, or 10x for 3, 4, or 5 Scatters, respectively. If you get the same number of scatters in this feature, you will be awarded additional free spins, which could help you reach your goal.

You will activate the Expanding Wild feature if you get a wild symbol on the bottom of the 2nd and 4th reels. The Wild will expand to cover both reels and transform the reels into wilds completely.

If you have a winning combination comprising a wild symbol in the base game, the Wild will maintain its position. In this feature, the other non-winning reels will be given 1 re-spin. You get this re-spin for each wild win you get in the base game.

RTP and volatility

The Asteroids RTP comes at 97%, which is quite high in the world of online slots. The volatility details of this slot aren't provided, but, based on our experience, it seems to be on the high side.
