How it plays
Starburst is a slot from NetEnt. The Starburst symbol is a Wild that fills an entire reel when it lands and triggers a Respin. This page covers only the rules and figures that are officially published and offers no way to win.
The Starburst symbol is an Expanding Wild that substitutes for all paying symbols to help match paylines.
Each time the Expanding Wild lands, it fills the whole reel and triggers a Respin, which gives another chance for symbols to land.
Every round is random and earlier results have no effect on the next one. This site gives no betting advice.

RTP is a theoretical value published officially. It describes the average return over the long run and many rounds, and says nothing about a single round or a short period. The version actually offered depends on the operator's settings, and the information in the game takes precedence. Items the official page does not publish are not listed in this table and are not guessed. Official page
Stake lists this game; whether you can play it depends on where you are.
