Pick this game if you want an anime and fantasy theme on a 6x5 grid of 30 cells. Wins are scatter-pays, so symbols count wherever they land and no fixed paylines apply. A win needs at least 8 matching symbols anywhere on the grid. After each win the grid tumbles again, so one spin can run several wins in a row.
Choose it if you want features built into the base game. Four or more Scatters anywhere start 15 free spins on purple starfield reels. Three or more Scatters during those spins add 5 more spins. Multiplier orbs that hit during a tumble sequence multiply that sequence win. The optional Ante Bet doubles the natural chance of free spins for 1.25 times the bet.
At the bonus round
After these three entries you will know exactly how a bonus round begins and what it keeps.
Switch the Ante Bet on before you spin and the stake climbs from 20 to 25 coins, a 1.25x cost. In return the reels carry more scatter symbols and the natural chance of Free Spins doubles. While it is active, buying Free Spins is switched off.
Plain stakeBetter trigger odds
Four or more SCATTER symbols anywhere start 15 spins on the purple starfield reels. A Total Multiplier collects every multiplier-orb hit across the round and lifts the wins that follow, while 3 or more SCATTER during the round add 5 spins.
Base reels15 spins plus multipliers
Every round opens on the 6x5 grid with 30 cells and no fixed paylines: matching symbols pay from anywhere on the reels. A win sets off a tumble, the winning symbols drop away and new ones fall in, and multiplier orbs during that sequence boost the whole chain.

It settles the order of a round, from the bet you pick to the limit you set.
Pick a bet from A$0.20 to A$300 before the first spin. Ante Bet raises the stake to 1.25 times the bet and doubles the natural chance of Free Spins.
Scan the 6x5 grid for matching symbols, since they pay wherever they land. Eight matching symbols is the fewest that pay, and winning symbols then tumble away.
Watch for multiplier orbs that can hit during a winning tumble sequence. A hit multiplies the total win of that sequence, not a single symbol.
Land four or more SCATTER symbols anywhere to start Free Spins with 15 spins on purple starfield reels. Buy Free Spins gives four scatters on the triggering spin.
Set your budget before the first spin, because no round tells you when the next Free Spins will come. Stop when the budget runs out, not after a long run of dead spins.
Decide whether to skip the base game: the bonus buy costs 100 times the total bet, which is A$500 at the A$5 example top bet.

After this, you will have matched each screenshot to a stage of play.
Deciding how long to stay on the reels depends on one fact nobody can change: how often the bonus round comes is not known in advance. Earlier spins do not shift the odds of the next one. The result of one session is random whatever the RTP, so a short loss and a long run are both possible.
Before you stake real money, check which RTP version is running. The game rules are the only place that shows it. Two versions of this slot can carry different returns, so the game name alone does not tell you which one you are playing.
Choosing a stake sets the money value of the top prize, since the maximum win is a multiple of the bet. The ceiling is reached very rarely, and no one can predict the session in which it comes. Plan each session around the amount you can afford to lose, not around the largest figure on the screen.

You will know how to open the demo and what the real game requires before staking.
Pick the demo to watch rounds without staking. It needs no money and pays nothing; the real game needs a Needforspin Casino account and players aged 18 or older.
Play for realPlayers must be 18+. Help is available from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, and you can register with BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Decide the amount you can afford to lose before the first spin, and treat that sum as the whole session budget.
Set the point where you stop before you start, and keep to it even after a big win on the reels.
Use the deposit and loss limits on your account before you fund a session, so spending stays within a set amount.
Take a break or self-exclude through BetStop once the game stops being fun, and do not try to win back what you lost.
Know what to expect
After reading, you can judge the volatility, bet range and free spin rules before you wager.
Pick this version if you want a x15,000 maximum win at the 96.49 or 96.50 return. Super Scatter goes higher at x50,000, while Pachi and the original Starlight Princess cap at x5,000 with Pachi returning 96.04.
Set your bet first, since the top win is x15,000 of that stake. At A$5 the ceiling is A$75,000, and at the A$300 maximum bet it reaches A$4,500,000. The ceiling is a limit, and no session can be planned around it.
Plan for uneven results, because this slot has high volatility. A win needs at least 8 matching symbols anywhere on the 6x5 grid, and the size of each win varies widely from spin to spin.
Choose a stake from A$0.20 up to A$300, which is the highest bet allowed here. The paytable uses A$0.40, and A$1 and A$5 are the other example stakes on this page.
Decide whether the game suits you by reading the paytable at A$0.40 and the mode rules before any stake. Starlight Princess 1000 is listed in the Needforspin Casino lobby with the Pragmatic Play provider and a 6x5 grid.
