Galacticons

Galacticons is a goofy, fun, space-themed video slot machine from Microgaming. It's available online, so any internet-connected device can send you to the stars to hang with the Galacticons critters and score big wins on the reels. There's no downloading necessary.

The game has five reels and three rows in a fairly standard grid, but it's against a really beautiful cosmos-inspired background. Icons include nine, ten, jack, queen, king, ace, three funny aliens, and their zoomy ship. There are 243 ways to win, and all wins are awarded for left to right adjacent symbol combinations. You can adjust coin value, bet lines, and other parameters on the player dashboard. And there's an auto play option, too.

The Milky Way is the wild card and can substitute for any icon you need to make a win, except for the burning sun and the eclipse. And when the Milky Way results in a win, that win is multiplied two times.

The Sun is the scatter icon. Get at least three to trigger free spin mode. During free spin mode, you may experience an eclipse that will give you a ton of credits through the Big Bang Feature. With this feature, the eclipse will capture all of the themed symbols – the three critters and the spaceship. They all land around it, and reveal random bonuses of one, two, three, or five times multipliers. Meanwhile, it can capture the sun, which gives you one free spin. And the Milky Way can land around the eclipse, which multiplies the bonus prizes awarded for the current free spin by two times.
