Mystery Star Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Mystery Star from Golden Hero is a three-reel, one-payline game with a traditional slots machine feel. It is very simple to play but has decent win potential and a 96 per cent RTP (return to player). There are wild symbols, a jackpot and a special mystery bonus feature to keep things entertaining. While it might not appeal to those who enjoy flashy online slots with countless special features and variations, it is sure to please anyone who loves old-fashioned slots machines and appreciates simple gameplay.

This is an enjoyable and well-designed 3 reel slot.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

The theme is a traditional slots machine like you might find in any casino. The symbols are in keeping with this theme, so expect to come across bars, cherries and lucky 7s. The sound effects fit in with the casino feel, and the unobtrusive background music never gets irritating. There are fun sound effects when you land a win and when you are close to hitting a big payout. The game's graphics are simple but fit in with the overall design of the game perfectly. They are cartoonish and colourful and light up brightly whenever they form part of a win.

You might not have come across Golden Hero slots before. This is certainly not one of the biggest names in the online casino world just yet; however, if you enjoy playing Mystery Star, feel free to check out some of the other titles we have here at Slots Temple from this fun developer.

How to play Mystery Star

It couldn't be easier to play Mystery Star. As there is only one payline, you don't need to adjust any settings or learn any complicated betting rules; instead, you simply select your preferred bet size and you are good to go.

How to play Mystery Star: step-by-step instructions:

1. Launch the game and use the plus and minus buttons to cycle through the bet sizes.

2. When you are happy with your total bet, just hit the spin button.

That's it! You can also use the autoplay function if you wish. Simply click the autoplay button (two arrows in a circle) and a pop-up window will appear. Choose how many spins you want to line up and set your preferred criteria for when the autoplay feature should stop, such as when you land a big win or your balance decreases by a certain amount. You can, of course, halt the autoplay function at any time once you have started it.

How to win on Mystery Star

There are three reels and just one payline in Mystery Star, which makes it pretty easy to see at a glance whether you have landed a win. To scoop a payout, you need to land winning combos on the reels:

- The top prize is the jackpot, which is awarded when you land three wilds on the single payline. This is 250x your total bet, which can be a sizeable sum!

- The next highest payout comes from landing three lucky 7 symbols on the payline and will net you 50x your total bet.

- The bar symbols are classed as medium paying symbols and will land you between 5x and 25x your bet when they appear in various combos.

- The cherries are the lowest paying symbols, with three cherries being worth 5x your bet; however, you will also receive a payout if you land just one or two cherries on the payline. Two cherries scoop 2x your bet, while a single cherry on the central payline will award 1x your bet.

In addition to being the jackpot symbol, the game's wilds sub for any other symbol in the game.

Bonus features

The game has a mystery bonus feature that is triggered when three wilds are fully visible anywhere on the reels - they don't need to all be on the payline. When this happens, the game will randomly select a multiplier and you will be awarded a prize based on the size of your bet and the multiplier. The multiplier can be anything from 2x your bet to 250x your bet, meaning this is an additional way to scoop the game's 250x jackpot payout.

Free spins

Mystery Star does not have any free spins.

Our verdict

We award Mystery Star 8/10. This is a fun, simple game with decent payout potential. Although it might seem a little dull to players who usually play expansive games with lots of special features, it pays out just often enough - in general - to keep it entertaining. Two ways to win the game's 250x jackpot is a nice touch.
