Starz Megaways Slot by Pragmatic Play

Every wild that lands on reels 2 through 5 expands to fill its entire column. In base game, that expansion is temporary - one spin and it's gone. But during free spins, those expanded wilds stick. They stay locked for every remaining spin in the round, progressively covering more of the grid. Four sticky wild columns across the middle reels leave only the outer two reels generating new symbols, and at that point nearly every combination connects.

Wins count from both directions. Left to right and right to left, independently. A six-of-a-kind pays twice - once per direction. That's unusual for Megaways slots, where most only evaluate left to right. It effectively doubles the hit potential on full-width matches, and with up to seven symbols per reel, the way count swings anywhere from 64 to 117,649 on a given spin.

Deep purple nebula background with a massive red-orange planet drifting on the right side. Symbols split into two tiers: faceted gemstones in diamond white, emerald green, ruby red, sapphire blue, and pink for the premiums, then glowing atomic orbs in green, pink, and yellow for the lows. Celestial bodies - a Saturn-ringed orange planet and a dusty brown one - sit in the middle of the paytable. The whole palette leans hard into jewel tones against dark space.

Three or more bonus symbols trigger a respin before free spins begin. The bonus symbols lock in place and you get one extra chance to land additional scatters, which increases the starting count: 6 spins for three symbols, scaling to 15 for all six. No retrigger once the round starts, and a 10,000x cap ends the round early if you hit it. Given how the sticky wilds accumulate, the cap is the realistic ceiling rather than a theoretical number buried in the math model.
