Astro

Astro is a Wicked Games fruit slot released on August 21, 2025, on a 5×3 grid with 10 lines that pay both ways. The spec sheet lists an RTP of 96.10%, a max win of 4,000x, bets of 0.10 to 200, a hit rate of 1 in 4.28 and volatility at 2 of 5. The splash screen lights a single icon, and the backdrop is a purple space scene with shimmering fruit.

Cosmic Wilds and respins

The main mechanic fits in one line: a wild expands across its reel and triggers a respin of the other reels. The wild is a rainbow star. In the demo a star on the third reel filled all three rows, and a second capture showed stars stacked on the second reel. Expanded reels are tinted brighter than the rest of the grid. The respin keeps the expanded reels in place while the rest spin again, and a new wild landing during a respin adds another one, so a single spin can chain several. The demo shows no cap, and neither does the spec sheet.

Both ways and the symbols

All line wins pay from left to right and from right to left, which doubles the ways to hit a combination. The ten lines are numbered on both sides of the grid. The symbols are cherries, orange, lemon, plum, watermelon, grapes and a blue diamond. At a 0.10 bet the paytable showed:

• Diamond: 0.50 for 3, 1.25 for 4, 2.50 for 5 (5x, 12.5x and 25x the bet)
• Grapes: 0.25 for 3, 0.60 for 4, 1.20 for 5 (2.5x, 6x and 12x)

The lower symbols were cut off in the capture. A three-lemon line in the demo paid 0.05 on the 0.10 bet, half the stake, which shows how small the base wins are.

Fixed jackpots

Landing 3 or more Marked Symbols anywhere on the reels triggers the Fixed Bonus. Three, four or five symbols pay 20x, 100x or 2,000x the bet. At a 0.10 bet the panel above the reels showed:

• Mini 2.00 (20x)
• Minor 10.00 (100x)
• Major 200.00 (2,000x)

These are fixed multiples of the bet and not a growing pool. The demo session never triggered one, so the award itself wasn’t seen.

Reading the numbers

A hit rate of 1 in 4.28 means a bit under a quarter of spins pay anything, and with a 4,000x cap and a 2,000x top jackpot, most of the long-run return has to come from the many small line wins and the expanding wild chains. The sheet files Astro under its Classic tier. The lowest-pay symbols are worth less than the stake, which is why two-way lines matter here.

What the demo showed

At 0.10 most results were small. The balance went from 10,000.00 to 9,998.80 over the first spins, and a respin round later showed stacked oranges across four reels, with the balance at 9,998.95. That is a handful of spins and not a hit rate sample. There are no free spins or Bonus Buy in the game, so everything runs on wild reels, respins and the three jackpot values.
