Space Wars

Space Wars Slot Review

Space Wars can remind you of one famous franchise with a similar name, however, this game contains a lot more humor than its inspiration. The reels are filled with cute little cosmic creatures and it may be confusing why the space war started in the first place. Perhaps, it is all because of an expensive symbol – Crystal or maybe aliens like to fight among each other as humans do. The gaming process is quite easy to master and enjoy.

Let us tell you about some of the more exciting parts of this game.

Wild

Only the reels 2 and 4 can include wild symbols, which can replace any other symbol.

Re-spin

Wins on the initial bet line trigger one free re-spin. The reels used for re-spins are different from those used for the initial spin. The winning symbol from the bet line win appears in the Cloning Pod when re-spin is initiated. The symbol is copied, and the copies are then added to the reels that spin again. The duplicated symbol appears stacked on the reels during the re-spin. Any initial bet line wins are combined with any re-spin wins. Any victories from the initial spin as well as any wins from the re-spin are included in the total win field.

If you expect a lot of bonus features in this slot, you will be disappointed. The game is quite simplistic in terms of features and bonuses. There are no Freespins Bonus features.

Space Wars Verdict

The problem with slots without Bonus Freespins is that there is not that much you can expect in the process of playing them. With all due respect to NetEnt, we think that they have made a mistake releasing a game without Freespins Bonus features. We tested this slot without huge expectations anyway. We decided to play it safe and set the bet amount to 0.8EUR per spin. And as expected it turned out to be a smart decision because our gaming session went without anything spectacular. We were getting a lot of rounds without any wins until we got stacked wilds which filled the whole second reel. This paid a “colossal” win – less than 1x of our bet. The green frightened animal was cloned, but we didn’t get anything in the following re-spin. After another series of fruitless spins the stacked wilds came to “help” us again if you could call a payout of less than 1x of your bet help anyway. And guess what? The Cloning Pod feature paid us nothing again and it became kind of annoying. Soon after, the same situation repeated, but this time the Cloning Pod paid us around x2. Our biggest win was we cloned the third highest-value symbol. It “gifted” us 7.87x of our bet including the re-spin. To tell you the truth, this is probably the worst slot we have ever played in terms of winnings and we are not planning to get back to it. If you feel lucky, I dare you to try it!
