Starbatch - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Starbatch takes place on a 6x5 reel structure, and the aim of the slot is to land clusters or ‘bundles’ of symbols in winning combinations. Winning bundles are formed by nine or more symbols appearing next to each other either horizontally or vertically. There are 12 brightly coloured gem symbols on the reels, 11 standard symbols and one special multi-coloured Wild gem. The Wild symbol substitutes for all other gem symbols on the reels and can be part of more than one winning bundle at once, meaning this symbol can be particularly lucrative.

The interesting aspect of this game is the Sticky Win Re-spin, which allows winning bundles of symbols to stick in place while the rest of the reels spin again.

Players can enjoy Starbatch for free, as it is one of the Spinmatic online slots available here at Slots Temple in demo mode. Demo mode allows players to try out the game without needing to make any deposit, so it’s a great way of getting to know a slot before playing with real money at an online casino.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Spinmatic have added to the vast number of jewel and gem themed slots already available, and we’re pleased to say Starbatch is a great addition to the collection. All of the aspects of the theme that fans love to see are featured here, including vibrant graphics, vivid colours and simple yet lively gameplay. The game features 12 gems, in an array of colours and shapes, all presented in 3D with gleaming highlights. There are no reels as such - the gems simply float in a 6x5 formation in space, so this game will appeal to those who enjoy space themed slots too. The deep blue abyss is scattered with shining stars which float around, and the contrast between the dark background and the bright gems is effective and engaging.

Fans of the jewel themed slots certainly won’t be disappointed, and players who enjoy slots such as Star Clusters or Starburst will definitely want to give this one a spin.

Starbatch RTP & Volatility

Starbatch Bonus Features

Sticky Win Re-Spin

Every time a winning bundle is landed the symbols in the bundle stick in place for a Sticky Win Re-Spin, which is the game’s bonus feature. The symbols stick in place while the reels re-spin, allowing other symbols to fall into place, and new matching symbols can join the winning bundle. This feature can really increase a player’s winnings, as Sticky Win re-spins can continue until there are no new symbols added to the bundle. When two or more bundles are present on the reels, the player wins the payout for all bundles, but the Sticky Win Re-spin is not triggered.

Overall Review

Sticky Win Re-Spins are what really make Starbatch interesting, as players are given the chance to add to their winning combinations to increase their win. Although this is the only feature, Starbatch is still a lively game that will appeal to fans of the jewel theme and the space theme, and the bright vibrant graphics make the game visually appealing. Overall, this is a great addition to Spinmatic’s collection of slots.
