Microgaming is one of the leading online pokie developers, thanks to its wide range of themed games. One of the company’s most popular theme is sports, as Microgaming has created plenty of games based on various activities like football and rugby. Now, basketball is being added to the mix with Microgaming’s new Basketball Star online pokie.
Basketball Star is part of the Sports Star series from Microgaming, which already includes Rugby Star and Football Star. As the newest addition to the series, Basketball Star features a very similar theme and format to its predecessors with a 243 Ways to Win format and several generous bonuses. The game is also animated in the same vibrant art star as the two previous Football Star and Rugby Star online pokies.
In Basketball Star, there is a generous free spins round which is triggered when three or more scatter symbols appear on the reels. Players can receive up to 25 free spins with an increasing multiplier up to 10x. There is also the Wild Shot bonus feature, which can turn up to two entire reels wild to help boost players’ chances of hitting winning combinations.
“This month we’re adding to the collection of sporting games we offer with Basketball Star,” says Mike Hebden, Head of Casino Games at Microgaming. “Packing the excitement of a major league final, we’re confident the game will be a crowd-pleaser”. The new Basketball Star online pokie from Microgaming will have a simultaneously release.
This means that the game will be launched on PC and mobile platforms at the same time. So, whether a player wants to spin the game’s reels on their smartphone, tablet or computer, Basketball Star will be available on their platform of choice!
