Introduction

You might have to check our Stars n’ Sweets Hold and Win slot review twice, because this game may have a familiar 5-reel layout with 20 paylines, but it also does something we haven’t seen before and sends its sweet symbols into space. Yes, it’s as much fun as it sounds, and that’s even before you realise just how layered the bonuses are with their sticky symbols, multipliers and jackpots.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

You might wonder if it’s still possible to create a slot machine with an original theme. Isn’t it just tempting to fall back into the familiar favourites? iSoftBet doesn’t think so, and the Stars n’ Sweets Hold and Win online slot displays its creativity in full.

In particular, it takes a much-loved set of images - sweets, ice cream and doughnuts - then sends them up into outer space, right next to the stars and UFOs. Sweets and space are both themes we’ve seen in online slots before, but together? It’s strange, zany and actually a lot of fun, especially with the colourful, cartoon graphics and disco-infused science fiction music.

Stars n’ Sweets Hold and Win RTP and Variance

If there is no way to control the results of a slot machine and the results are completely random, how can we make any kind of return predictions? We can talk about long-term averages, which don’t say much about a single round of play but are useful to compare to other online slots. Stars n’ Sweets Hold and Win has a solid 96% RTP and a reassuring low to medium variance. Lower the risk with our free slot games.

Stars n’ Sweets Hold and Win Bonus Features

One of the best things about the modern slot machine? The diversity of bonus features!

Sweet Rocket Wilds

The Sweet Rocket Wild modifier can appear after any spin. Five smartie bombs explode to replace regular and scatter symbols with wilds.

Sweet-eor Shower

Two free spins symbols can’t trigger free spins, but they can make one reel re-spin. This could reveal the third free spins symbol you need.

Sticky Wild Free Spins

Three free spins symbols award 8 free spins. Not only that, but after every spin, a sticky wild is placed on the reels and remains in place until the end of the feature. The wild has a multiplier of 2x, 3x or 5x.

Hold and Win

This takes at least 5 star symbols to trigger. You’ll be awarded 3 re-spins. Every new star symbol holds in place and resets the count. Each star has a value of between 1x and 200x, or 1 of 3 jackpots:

Minor = 3x total bet.

Major = 50x total bet.

Grand = 200x total bet.

The UFO collector symbol allows you to collect all visible values and remove the stars. The UFO payer symbol can increase the value of any visible star by x2, x3 or x5. Otherwise, values are awarded at the end of the round.

Stars n’ Sweets Hold and Win Review

We’ve never seen a slot quite like Stars n’ Sweets Hold and Win, with its quirky combination of themes. It’s even more creative than the Dropz slot, which also made use of sweet treats. Having both free spins and hold and win is also particularly exciting, especially when there are 2 different ways to trigger the free spins round. There’s really a lot to love here.
