Software (9)

What is there to be said about Microgaming casinos that hasn't been said already? The company is known all over the world for its excellent online gaming software, and that excellence comes to bear in this release. Boasting of one of the fastest and smoothest running gaming platforms around, Star Appeal is a class act all around.

Easy to Understand (7)

The abundance of symbols in Star Appeal can unfortunately make the game a bit hard to understand. Add to that the numerous combinations that can trigger wins and bonus features, and the number of options that you have to remember can get a bit overwhelming. Admittedly, most of these features are essential to your enjoyment of the game, although we do have to take some points off for the game's complexity.

Graphics & Sounds (9)

All of the familiar and not so familiar elements of the Hollywood movie industry are well represented in Star Appeal, and the game's stellar graphics have a lot to do with that. The colors are absolutely fabulous and definitely more than do justice to the game's flashy theme. You can hardly expect anything less from Microgaming casinos, which has built up much of its stellar reputation due in large part to their excellent graphics.

Theme and Concept (10)

As mentioned previously, Star Appeal has a charming movie star based theme that calls to mind the more glamorous and glossy moments of Hollywood's colorful history. Fans of the movie industry will certainly have a lot to enjoy in this game, but even if you are not particularly interested in all the trappings of the celluloid set, the action and numerous winning opportunities offered by Star Appeal will definitely keep you entertained for hours and hours at a time.

Game Features (9)

Star Appeal offers a host of game features that place it miles ahead of any other video slots games in its class. Included in these offerings are a gamble feature, a bonus game that is available on a second screen, and a bonus game feature on the reels.

The Gamble Feature in Star Appeal is triggered when you come up with a winning combination in the base game. When that happens, the game's Gamble Button will be enabled. This will give you a chance to multiply your wins by up to 4 times. Guessing the proper Card Color in this section either red or black can effectively double your win and getting the Card Suit correctly can again multiply your initial win by 4.

Getting three or more of the Star symbols that are scattered on the reels will trigger Star Appeal's bonus game feature. This bonus game is played on Star Appeal's second screen and follows the 'Pick a Box' style of playing wherein players have the chance to pick out one or more items that will reveal the amount of the bonus won.

Betting Options (8)

Oddly enough, Star Appeal offers a fairly meager selection of betting options, with a minimum bet of only $0.01 and a maximum of $0.25. While this will undoubtedly make the game appeal to players with more modest bankrolls, it does seem a bit at odds with the game's glitz and glamor theme. Nevertheless, it is possible to make a maximum bet of $75.00 per spin if you bet the maximum amount on all of the 30 paylines.

Jackpots (9)

Star Appeal offers a high jackpot of 5,000 coins in the base game. This can result in a potential win of $12,500.00 in the base game alone, with a further $25,000.00 possible win on the free spin sections along with the 2x multiplier. In addition, the jackpot that you can potentially win can stretch up to an astounding 89,850.00 in either $, EUR, or GBP! The key to winning the jackpot is the Starlet symbol, hitting 5 of which will unlock this fabulous prize.
