Respins, Star Picks and Multipliers fill this Asia-inspired hit

Light & Wonder, Inc. Specialist slot provider Lightning Box has drawn inspiration from Asia for its latest release Divine Stars. This innovative title will enjoy an exclusive debut via the Rank Group on 27 July followed by a general release two weeks after.

Played across 3×5 reels, this 25 payline slot is home to high-paying symbols, including Chinese lanterns, lucky red letters and ancient coins. These are joined by a wild man symbol, which substitutes all other symbols in game except the scatter, which aids in the creation of winning lines.

A Hold ‘n’ Respin round is awarded upon landing two or more scatter symbols left to right in the base game. Three respins are activated with a goal of landing five scatters across the reels, each additional scatter landed resets these spins, allowing for additional opportunities to collect all five scatter symbols.

Upon collection, the player unlocks a star pick bonus, where they are presented with a mystery choice representing varying spin amounts. Any choice made can be kept or gambled for the opportunity of being awarded even more spins. This process is then repeated to determine the size of the multiplier present throughout these free spins.

This varying multiplier can climb as high as 10x and can be available across up to 10 free spins. This player choice is instrumental in awarding Divine Stars max win of 5,000x.

Divine Stars is available to customers of Light & Wonder’s industry-leading OpenGaming™ platform alongside popular new titles such as Chicken Fox Jr and Lightning Gorilla.

David Little, CPO at Lightning Box said: “Divine Stars positions the player’s interaction as a key part of its gameplay. We want our players to be engaged by the title’s lovingly crafted theme and the max win available.

“However, we also want to provide players with an active role when playing Divine Stars and their choice based around risk and reward decisions have a huge impact on the free spins round.”

Rob Procter, VP Game Development at Light & Wonder said: “We are delighted to welcome Divine Stars to our stable of games. The combination of a huge max win present in a popular Asia themed title will be a hit with slot enthusiasts and we look forward to seeing the reception the game receives upon release.”
