Winter Star Bonus Buy Slot by Evoplay

Two scatter symbols drive the action here, each restricted to specific reels. The Winter Star lands on reels 2, 3, and 4, while the Golden Bell appears on reels 1, 3, and 5. Three Golden Bells trigger free spins, and Winter Stars pay instant prizes based on how many appear - from 1x for three up to 1,000x for all nine positions filled.

The free spins selection screen is where the real decision sits. Pick 8 spins with high-volatility multipliers, where nine Winter Stars pay 5,000x. Go with 12 medium spins at 2,500x for nine. Or take 16 low-volatility spins keeping the base game's 1,000x ceiling. The trade is straightforward: fewer spins, bigger star payouts. All three modes keep standard payline wins running alongside the star prizes.

During free spins, both scatter types remain active. Three more Golden Bells retrigger additional spins on top of your chosen allocation. The Winter Star prizes stack with regular line wins on the same spin, so a lucky free spin with a full star screen and matching symbols on a payline pushes toward that 6,016x cap.

All three buy bonus options cost 37x total bet regardless of which volatility tier you pick. That uniform price means the high-volatility option offers the steepest risk curve for the same entry cost - eight spins chasing 5,000x stars versus sixteen spins with more modest prizes.
