Stellar Cash Blown Away Features
Many slots focus on creating an interesting mix of features to make a game as enticing as possible. And when the design team at Lightning Box got together to discuss their latest creation, they decided that anything goes.
The regular base game is broken up with the addition of a fun respin feature and then there are a couple of bonus rounds where the big money will hopefully be found. Keep your eyes peeled for tornados, flying cows and spaceships. You have been warned!
Tornado Respins
Everything is calm and tranquil on this cute little desert island. The waves are lapping gently against the shore and a little boat sits happily in the cove. All of a sudden, a tornado symbol turns up on reel 5 and blows the whole serene setting into chaos.
As they land, they sweep across the screen and remove the first of the low-paying royal symbols. You'll see these marked off the board to the right of the screen. You then get a respin without the lowest-paying symbol in play.
If another tornado symbol lands, it continues to smash the game apart and remove further royal symbols with each turn. If you are lucky, 6 respins can produce 6 subsequent tornado symbols and your final respin will have nothing but high-paying symbols present.
Free Spins Bonus
The free spin feature comes courtesy of 3 scatter symbols landing on the reels. You can get more but it doesn't change the outcome. Everybody starts with 10 free games. During the free spins, tornado symbols are still available. In fact, they hold the key to unlocking the biggest wins in this feature.
If a tornado hits, then it will sweep across the screen as usual. But during this bonus round, there's a chance that it might pick up a cow and carry it away to what we can only assume to be a fairly gruesome fate. Who knows where the cows end up—it’s probably best not to ask.
These bovine additions are important as when you start the bonus game, you begin with a 1x multiplier. But for every cow that gets airlifted out of there, the multipliers increase by +1. This can continue up to a maximum of 7x.
Stellar Cash Jackpot Round
This is where things get really weird. You'll notice that there are spaceship symbols landing occasionally during the base game. Pick up 3 of these and the game suffers from a slight schizophrenic episode.
You now find yourself in space flying a mission to find one of the 4 jackpots. There are 6 regular rounds in which you need to shoot 1 of the enemy craft. It will either reveal a cash amount or your own ship will suffer damage.
You get 3 lives, which effectively means if you don't hit a cash amount 3 times, then you are out of the game. However, making your way past the first 6 levels takes you to the jackpot battle.
You keep firing at the various spacecraft until you reveal 3 of the same jackpot symbols. The 4 available jackpot totals will depend on the size of your bet.
