About the Game
Astro Cat is a beautifully crafted slot game. The symbols are are Chinese-related. You have Koi Karp, Bonsai trees, Chinese Fans, Dragons etc. All the symbols are wonderfully designed and are set in beautiful background of a temple surrounded by a lake. The other symbols in the game include traditional card symbols such as 10,J,Q,K etc. While the theme-related symbols have a higher value, the card symbols have lower values. Then you also have a couple of bonus symbols in the form a wild and a scatter.
The Astro Cat is the wild and it acts as a replacement for all the other symbols except the scatter symbol to help you form a winning payline. But it only appears on the reels 3 and 4.
The main attraction of the game is the middle reel which is called as the Reelfacta Reel. Instead of just one reel, it is split into a 4x4 grid with 16 symbols. All of the 16 symbols can be a part of a winning payline during the base game but each can be used only once.
The Reelfacta also plays a major role during the Free Spins round of Astro Cat. Here the grid is filled with wilds to help increase your chances of winning. The free spins round is triggered by landing 3 or more of the scatter symbols.
With 5 reels and 1296 paylines, you can be assured of getting some huge returns for the money you spend on this slot. The betting range of this slot is between 50p per spin to 100£ per spin.
Verdict
Astro Cat has everything that you could want in a slot. A great gameplay, a good theme complimented by equally good graphics and a good payout rate. It's definitely worth a spin.
