Magic Stars 3 Slot Machine - Play Magic Stars 3 Slot Free

Introduction

Prepared to be dazzled with this astronomical slot with five paylines and a 3x3 grid format. Magic Stars 3 from Wazdan takes us into the stratosphere, placing us amongst the galaxies with their sparkling stars and endless mystery; however, despite its alluring promise, this is very much a simple and classic slot with no bells and whistles. Magic Stars 3 is a follow-up to the popular classic Magic Stars. We won’t be comparing the two here, but fans of the first may be interested in seeing how this release matches up to the original.

There are eight base game symbols, all of which are stars. These are identifiable by their different colors and designs. A multicolored star is the wild, which substitutes for any other symbol. 

Below the reels is a futuristic-looking but easy to use interface. Balance, information and settings are to the left, stakes are laid out in the middle, and the volatility, spin, speed and autospin are to the right. 

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

The mystery of the cosmos is enough to bewilder and bemuse with its beauty and unending expansiveness. Magic Stars 3 is a space themed slot that takes players on a journey that is out of this world.

The backdrop is a multicolored cosmic galaxy of stars, with slowly moving stardust and occasional twinkles to catch your eye. The symbols are likewise vibrant and shiny, sparking with light to bring the reels to life. Big wins are celebrated in style with color and sparkles galore. 

While the user interface looks a little tacky, the rest of the game’s graphics are contemporary and easy on the eye. An alluringly ethereal soundtrack accompanies the gameplay, adding to the abundant mystery of this cosmic slot.

Magic Stars 3 RTP and variance

The RTP is pretty decent at 96.50 per cent, which is just over the 96 per cent average we like to see. The volatility is adjustable, meaning you can customise it to suit your style.

How to play Magic Stars 3 

1. Select your preferred volatility by clicking the three chillies symbol for low, standard or high volatility. 
2. Select the stake from the options on the bar at the bottom of the screen. Use -/+ to scroll through more options. 
3. Hit spin. 
4. Adjust the game speed to the lower right by clicking through the options: regular, medium or fast. 
5. Autospin is available if desired.

Bet sizes & paytable wins 

The minimum bet is just 0.10 coins, which is ideal for casual gaming. The maximum stake is 100.00 coins, which should tempt the higher rollers.

- Symbols pay for combinations of three on a payline.

- Information on the payouts seems to vary a little online. According to the paytable, the wild is the most valuable at 4 for three matching symbols at the minimum stake. This goes up to 4,000 at the top bet judging from our gameplay, when we were surprised to land three wilds on the 100.00 coin demo stake.

- Stars range from 0.80 to 0.40 for three matching symbols at the minimum stake.

Magic Stars 3 bonus features

There are no separate features in this slot, but there is a double-or-nothing gamble element. 

Gamble feature 

After a win, you can choose to gamble your bet in the hope of doubling it. Activate the feature and select one of two symbols; if you guess the winning symbol, you will double the win and can either collect the prize or gamble again. There is the potential to gamble seven times; however, if you guess incorrectly, you will lose the win value in the ‘current win’ counter and return to the main game.

Magic Stars 3 review: our verdict

We like the alluring graphics, engaging colors and calming sounds, which make this a pleasant slot to engage with. It is also simple to pick up and play, but this simplicity runs throughout the slot. There are no bells and whistles here and while this is likely to appeal to fans of classic slot action, those wanting a little more excitement may be left disappointed. 

The low minimum stake is a great starting point for budget gameplay, while the higher stake could see some reasonable returns for the higher rollers. Along with the decent RTP, we can see this game appealing to a range of players. Of particular interest here is the adjustable volatility, which is fantastic for customising the game to your preferences.

The crux of Magic Stars 3 is its classic gameplay. The gamble element is the only part that really ups the ante a little to add interest, but this may not be enough to quench the thirst of players needing more excitement and variation. 

If you have not yet checked out the original Magic Stars slot, now might be a good time to take a peek. This has retained its popularity over the years with its no-fuss style, taking the same three-reel, five-payline format with its adjustable volatility and gamble element. Here we get brighter and more cartoonish graphics for light-hearted gaming and classic symbols on the reels for some bricks and mortar slot nostalgia.
