Rugby Star

Football may get the lion's share of media coverage, but rugby is for the fans. That's why Rugby Star is so popular with our players. Microgaming has done a fantastic job in its foray into sports-themed slot machines. Try it on for size – if that size is extra large because this outsized game is so much fun and really generous with the payouts.

The game has five reels and three rows set in a grid against a background of an open-air sports arena. There are 243 ways to win, as indicated on either side of the grid. The minimum bet is .50 credits per spin, and the maximum is 50 credits per spin. You can set your bets using the player dashboard. Also down there on the dash is the autoplay option; set up your parameters for how you want your autoplay to go, and you're ready for rugby!

Icons include rugby cleats, protective helmets, s stadium, trophies, and players from Wales, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and England. There are no royal playing card symbols on Rugby Star. It's all rugby, all the time.

Rugby balls are the scatter, and with at least three of them you can score up to 25 free spins. A multiplier will be attached to all spins in free spins round. It can go as high as 10 times your regular win.

The Rugby Star game logo is wild and can substitute for any icon you need to make a win except the scatter. They can become stacked and take over the entire reel on reels two, three and four. Randomly, the Wild Pass Feature will come up and put a fully stacked wild reel – and a guarantee of a win.
