How to Play Basketball Star
The Basketball Star slot machine by Microgaming has two key settings:
- Bet size and
- Value of the coin in credits
You can set both options in the Bet menu. When you click the up arrow, you will see the tab where you can manage these settings. The value of the coin ranges from 0.01 to 0.10. You can set it using the -/+ buttons on both sides of the Coin Size icon. The amount of the bet is set similarly in the Coins box. The range of values available is between 1 to 10 coins. The selected value is multiplied by the value of the coin and by the х50 multiplier. The resulting figure is the total bet.
Click the Spin button to start the reels. The Auto Spin button will switch you to the automatic mode.
If you use the trial version of the Basketball Star slot machine, you will receive 2,000 demo credits in your account immediately after loading the game. You can see the number of credits in the box in the bottom left corner of the interface (Demo Credits). If you click this window, you will see the menu. Use it to select the mode of displaying the balance. There are three possible options:

The Wild symbol is the logo of the slot. When winning combinations are formed, it replaces all pictures except for the Scatter. The Wild symbol appears on all 3 boxes of the reel. This icon does not earn you payouts of its own and lands only on the 3 right reels. Scatter is an image of the basketball ball. It creates combinations by landing in any box on the reels and produces the highest payouts. With the maximum bet, it earns you 250, 2,500 and 12,500 coins for 3, 4 and 5 pictures, correspondingly. In certain game situations the Scatter provides you with access to free spins.
You win 30, 100 and 600 coins for the portrait of the basketball player in a red T-shirt. The sportsman in a yellow T-shirt gets 20, 80 and 300 coins. The slot has three symbols depicting two sportsmen. This type of picture in a yellow frame wins you 15, 75 and 250 coind, in a green frame, 12, 60 and 150 coins and in a blue one, 10, 50 and 125.
The rest of the symbols show various sport gear and award the following amounts:
- A medal - 8, 30 and 120
- Sport shoes - 8, 25 and 100
- Water bottles - 5, 20 and 80
- Basketball court layout - 2, 15 and 70
All payouts are indicted for 3, 4 and 5 pictures with the maximum bet.
Rolling Reels Function
The Rolling Reels function gets activated after each winning combination. All symbols that formed the combination disappear. The symbols that were above them fall into their places. If they produce a winning combination too, the respective amount is credited to your account. During the free spins this functions switches to a special mode.
Wild Shot Function
The function named Wild Shot randomly launches at any moment of the game. The point is that two reels become "Wild" simultaneously. It applies only to reels 2, 3 and 4. The function is triggered only if the Wild symbols that appear complete the winning combinations.
Free spins
At least 3 Scatter symbols showing up during one spin, trigger free spins. The number of free spins is determined by the number of Scatter symbols that landed:
- 3 - 15 free spins
- 4 - 20 free spins
- 5 - 25 free spins
During the free spins the Rolling Reels option gains additional features. After all winning combinations are formed, each multiplier increases by one within one spin. This additional multiplier can reach as high as х100. A new combination of the Scatter symbols during free spins does not affect their number.
