The expanding Wild#
Original Starburst is built around the expanding Starburst Wild and the respin it brings. The provider documentation describes a 5x3 game with ten paylines and places the Starburst Wild on reels two, three and four. When a Wild lands, it expands across the full reel, substitutes for paying symbols and triggers a respin.
Treat the Wild as a change of state. Spot the reel it occupies, see which paying symbols it can stand in for on the line in front of you, then read the respin result.
Starburst XXXtreme has its own documented multiplier values and feature-buy record, while Starburst Galaxy has its own Avalanche, generator and board-growth features. The review explains that editorial boundary and how to play gives the complete spin order.
How the respin chain continues#
The first expanding Starburst Wild triggers a respin. If another Wild arrives during that respin, you get an additional one. The original game caps the feature at three respins, and the bet stays the one from the round that started it. A new Wild can extend the sequence, and the stake does not change once the feature is running.
Three is the ceiling, not the norm. The award comes from the symbols displayed and the payout rules.
Game-state restoration is documented for reconnection, and a technical timeout may require a reload.
Wilds work inside the paylines#
The original game pays from left to right and from right to left. On each active line it pays the highest award from the two directions only. The expanding Wild substitutes for paying symbols, so it is read inside those same direction and highest-award rules rather than beside them.
The paytable covers BAR, 7 and six coloured gems. For three, four and five symbols, BAR pays 50, 200 and 250; 7 pays 25, 60 and 120. Yellow gems pay 10, 25 and 60, green gems 8, 20 and 50, orange gems 7, 15 and 40, and blue and purple gems 5, 10 and 25. Those values let you check any finished screen.
The current provider page also lists a maximum payout of 800 times total bet for the original game. Visit RTP for the scope of that record and how it sits next to the long-run statistics.
