Expansion! Review

This slot has many interesting ideas. The Expansion! slot offers more than enough, so let’s take a look at everything this 5x4 game with 30 paylines brings to the table!

The theme of Expansion! is all about astronomy and exploring unknown planets. That’s rather fresh, and all the symbols are detailed. Overall, the entire package is incredibly easy on the eyes.

The volatility level of Expansion! is medium, and you can win up to 2,171x your bet if you get lucky. The very least that you can play for is £0.30 per spin, while high rollers can go straight for the huge £300 max bet. As for the slot’s theoretical RTP, it can be 92.10%, 94.02%, or 96.08%. The hit rates for those RTPs are then 17.85%, 18.36%, and 19.09%, respectively.

Expansion! Slot Features

There are 10 pay symbols in Expansion!, divided evenly into 5 low-paying and 5 high-paying symbols. The low-paying symbols are all about card ranks from Tens to Aces. They come with nice designs, but aren’t worth much in terms of payouts. Even a full set wins less than 1x your bet. Things are better when it comes to the high-paying symbols, and you can look forward to various planets, rocks, and even stars. Stars are worth the most, and they pay 3.33x your bet for a five-of-a-kind combination.

In addition to pay symbols, there are also Directional Wilds, Mystery symbols, and Scatters. Mystery symbols are straightforward. They can be Stacked on all reels, and they always flip to reveal matching pay symbols.

As for the slot’s Directional Wilds, they substitute for any pay symbols and help complete winning combinations. Once you get a Directional Wild in view, it spins and fires a ray gun in one of 8 possible directions, turning all symbols in that direction into extra Wilds. Directional Wilds can land only on reels 2, 3 and 4.

If you land 3, 4, or 5 Scatters, you trigger the Free Spins feature with 8, 12, or 15 free spins, respectively. During free spins, Directional Wilds fire twice, and you’ll also get random win multipliers. The available win multipliers are 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 8x and 10x.

Finally, you can purchase the Free Spins feature via the Buy Feature option. There are 3 options for you to choose from, and you can buy 8, 12, or 15 free spins. Doing so will cost you 60x, 90x, or 113x your bet, respectively.

Review Summary

In short, Expansion! has Directional Wilds and free spins. It’s a great experience overall, but you should make sure to play only the slot’s top RTP version – the other two versions just aren’t worth it.
