STAR JOKER REVIEW
It's Sloterday Night Fever at the Star Joker slot by Play’n GO’. Think your traditional fruit slot machine, only this time it's more than a typical slot game — Star Joker's a jivin', disco slot machine! With five reels, 10 paylines and an RTP of 94.23%, this classic fruit machine is leaning into a timeless theme and dazzles online casinos everywhere!
ABOUT THE STAR JOKER SLOT
Let’s be honest; the traditionally-themed slot is in need of a bit of an upgrade, being that the classic fruit machine is such a well-worn trope. But, this slot game uses a modern game engine to incorporate a polished aesthetic with a sleek design that's totally groovy! The gold and purple colour scheme, glistening symbols, funky electro soundtrack, and slick gameplay all help make this a funky addition to Play’n GO’s Joker series.
GAMEPLAY
Whether you’re a ripe, seasoned player or fresh to the whole fruit machine thing, Play'n GO has made sure that the gameplay is easy to follow. It even starts out with an interactive tutorial that serves as a handy beginner’s guide to the mechanics of the basic slot. Don’t worry if you’re not super into ‘simple’ slots, though; Play'n GO will get you into the groove.
WAGER
Star Joker has a minimum bet of €0.05 (or currency equivalent) and a maximum bet of €50. Your total bet amount can be adjusted using the +/- buttons found on the user interface. You can create winning combinations by landing matching symbols from left to right.
SYMBOLS
There are 11 Star Joker symbols in total. Play’n GO helps you get your five a day with classic symbols like cherries and strawberries as the lowest-paying symbols, while watermelons, melons and grapes are higher-paying symbols. The highest-paying symbols include the golden bells, diamonds, and the number seven symbol. Watch out for the Wild symbol, the Scatter symbol and the golden Wild joker!
SPECIAL FEATURES
As mentioned above, Star Joker includes special symbols that trigger bonus features. The shining star acts as a Wild symbol that substitutes for all other symbols on the reels to help form more winning paylines and potentially boost wins. The game also includes a Scatter symbol that appears on reels one, three and five. Landing enough Joker Scatter symbols on the reels activates the Free Spins bonus round. Hot stuff, right?
STAR JOKER FREE SPINS
Landing three Joker Scatters unleashes Free Spin Mode, in which 10 free spins will be awarded. During the bonus round, the joker doubles as both a Wild and a Scatter.
As a Wild, this symbol substitutes for all other symbols on the reels to help form more winning paylines.
As a Scatter, landing three symbols will award another set of free spins! The base game Scatter will not be available during the Free Spins round.
STAR JOKER SLOT DEMO
Not sure about the flavour? We’ve got you covered! If you’re not diggin' it just yet, you can get a taste of the gameplay in the demo mode.
When spinning a slot in the demo mode, you’ll get to explore all the features the game has to offer without spending a dime, as you won’t have to bet real cash to sample the sweet fruits of this game.
Instead, demo play comes equipped with virtual funds — fake currency that only exists within the game. Although, of course, virtual bets imply virtual wins; so when playing slots for free, you won’t be able to collect any winnings. With that said, the demo is an excellent way to boogie without breaking the bank!
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may be asked to register and complete the verification process to access the demos. If verification is not necessary, you may be able to play as a visitor.
THE VERDICT
Play’n GO knows a thing or two about developing new slots, especially with slots like Star Joker. You don’t need a big, flashy theme or concept to create engaging, captivating casino games. Smooth gameplay, clear rules, classic symbols and a stylish concept blend together to create a new take on familiar slots and make for a refreshing experience for the player. No need for crazy moves to make traditional fruit machine games fun — they got the funk!
