Hit a Six to be a Cricket Star!

A game clearly designed with fans of cricket in mind, Microgaming’s Cricket Star also has a broad appeal to sports fans of all preferences. Being packed with extra features makes this online slots game able to easily compete with others of different genres and Cricket Star is yet another fine offering from a brand that’s famous for its quality casino games.

A 5 reel slot with 3 rows and Microgaming’s innovative 243 Ways to Win format, Cricket Stars does away with standard paylines for a more unique approach. The game is set inside a cricket stadium and the background shows a huge number of fans that are waiting for a winning result. Winning combinations are formed when matching symbols appear in adjacent reels that run from left to right, and with over 200 different potential options, payouts occur regularly.

Slots Symbols

In true Microgaming style, the reel symbols follow the online slots games’ theme closely. Cricket Stars reels are emblazoned with cricket-related images, including an umpire, groups of fans, celebrating players and some of the most iconic batsmen and bowlers to ever hit the field.

The Cricket Star logo is the online slots games Wild and can be stacked on reels 3,4 and 5 whilst the Scatter symbol is the cricket ball, which will trigger the main bonus feature.

Cricket Star Bonus Features

Cricket Star has a number of bonus features, all of which have the potential to increase a player’s payouts dramatically.

Rolling Reels

When the Rolling Reels feature is activated the usual reel symbols will vanish and new ones will take their place. This means that without having to spin again, a winning combination may come in to play, creating an additional chance for a large payout. This feature is great fun and adds a new and dynamic element to the game.

Wild Wickets

A cricket themed feature for a cricket themed game, Wild Wickets is triggered when 3 wickets appear at the top of reels 2, 3 and 4, and a ball is then bowled towards them. The ball will hit one of the 3 wickets and will turn the whole reel wild, guaranteeing a winning combination will line up straight away.

Free Spins

If 3, 4 or 5 of the cricket ball Scatter symbols line up anywhere on the reels players will be rewarded with one of the following:

  • 15 free spins from 3 cricket balls
  • 20 free spins from 4 cricket balls
  • 25 free spins from 5 cricket balls

During these free spins the Rolling Reels feature is also activated and with every win attained the multiplier awarded will be increased by a maximum amount of 10x. These spins cannot be retriggered within the Cricket Star Rolling Reels feature but the rewards it offers are still plentiful at online pokies sites in NZ.

A Themed Video Slot

Cricket Stars captures the thrill of a live cricket match and the soundtrack of fans cheering or crying out in anguish when the bat strikes the ball at the wrong angle, or a wicket is taken creates an atmospheric aspect that’s realistic and authentic. The polished graphics add to the games’ attractions and overall, the game of cricket is brought to life with every spin of the reels.
