Five Star Power Reels pokie

The fruit theme for pokies is still relevant. Many developers use it in their top pokies. Red Tiger is no exception, they launched Five Star Power Reels pokie, which has 8 reels and 3 rows.

The fruit symbol forms payment combinations on 5 pay lines, all winnings are paid left to right and vice versa. Five Star Power Reels has a Respin Feature, Instant Winnings feature and a risk game. The maximum payout is 100,000 coins.

Reviews and recommendations from the testing team

• The pokie has a maximum payout of 100,000 coins. Personally, this pokie disappointed me. The first reason is the small number of pay lines. The second reason is the gameplay of this pokie, which is identical to the previous version. Despite the pokie having 8 reels, the potential for receiving Five Star symbols was low (they trigger the Instant Winnings feature), usually, only three of those symbols were given. During testing, when Re spin Feature was triggered, the winnings were small.
• However, the pokie was able to realize its potential, but it only gave us between 1000x and 4000x bets (the developers claim the maximum payout is 10000x).
• During testing, most winnings were small and ranged from less than the nominal bet size to several bets. Less often, the payments were 10x-30x total bets. Five Star Power Reels pokie was able to make a large series of spins without any payouts. The potential to receive a big payment with this pokie is extremely low, and, in my opinion, it is practically not able to give winnings for more than 100x-200x.
• Respins Feature can be triggered with every winning, but it was usually launched on every 5-8th payout. On average, between 3 and 5, re-spins were launched, and extremely rarely did their number reach 7-8. During testing, it was not possible to get more than 10.
• The average payment received with Respin Feature was 10x-30x bets, less often 60x-120x total bets. The potential for winning more than 200x is low.
• The pokie also has a risk game.

This pokie is not suitable for playing with active bonus wagering. I also do not recommend trying to “squeeze” it before gives you a big payout. The optimal solution would be a medium distance of spins, in anticipation of a win or a series of payments for 100x-250x bets. Progressive betting strategies are also not recommended.

Bonus features

• Respin Features is triggered randomly with any winning spin. All symbols that are part of the payment combination will remain in place, the remaining reels will re-spin. As a result, you can win up to 10x of the initial payout.
• Instant Winnings feature. Three or more Five Star (scatter) symbols will trigger this bonus feature. The payments are bigger if you launch this feature with more scatters. The maximum payout is 1000x total bets.
• Risk game.

Payments

• All payment combinations are formed in both directions (from left to right and vice versa) with 3-8 identical symbols.
• Cherries symbol will give you between 1 and 40 coins. Lemon will pay twice as much.
• Oranges symbol is worth from 3 to 120 coins.
• Plums, Grapes, and Watermelon symbols will pay up to 200, 300 and 400 coins, respectively.
• Seven symbol offers payments for 25, 50, 100, 250, 500 or 1000 coins.
