Starlight Princess 1000 (Pragmatic Play) – Review & Demo Play

Starlight Princess 1000 - Game Overview

I rate Starlight Princess 1000 as a lively scatter pays slot built on Pay Anywhere plus Tumbles and Multipliers. The base game carries the same core mechanics as the bonus, so I’m never just spinning to wait for free spins. It ranked 9th among new releases in 2023 and has stayed within the Top 50 after, which tallies with how engaging the loop feels. The standout twist is a total multiplier in the bonus that charges from winning multipliers.

Across sessions, I get steady bursts from cascades and screens dotted with hearts or a star that carry multipliers up to x1,000. Big figures above x10 show up, but not often in my play. When smaller values land over several tumbles, the totals can climb. Because the slot pays anywhere with 8+ of a kind, there’s no line-reading to do, which keeps the pace brisk between dry spells and the real fireworks once the bonus lands.

Slot Features in Starlight Princess 1000

The package is simple but effective. Pay Anywhere means similar icons can land in any spots and still pay when the count hits eight. Any win triggers Tumbles, removing winning icons and dropping in new ones until no more cascades connect. Multipliers appear as four hearts and one star; they don’t pay by themselves but carry random values up to x1,000. All multipliers on the screen are added together and applied to the total win from that spin’s tumbling sequence.

Scatter Pays in Starlight Princess 1000

This is a newer generation scatter pays setup, so positions don’t matter. For regular icons, 8 of a kind is the minimum to get paid. The Princess acts as Scatter and works differently. Four Scatters are enough to award a payout and open the feature. More Scatters on the trigger won’t hand out extra spins, but they do grant a higher instant payout, topping out at x100 for six.

Any time a win lands, all winning icons vanish and the grid refills from above. That refilling can repeat several times in a single paid spin, which is where most of my better totals come from. Multipliers only take effect if there’s at least one payout during that sequence. When the tumbling ends, the sum of all multipliers currently on the screen is applied to the accumulated win from that spin.

Free Spins in Starlight Princess 1000

Four or more Scatters anywhere award the Free Spins feature, starting with 15 spins. The bonus keeps the same core loop as the base game, so you still get pay anywhere, cascades, and random multipliers up to x1,000. Alongside that, there’s a separate total multiplier outside the main layout. That figure is the game-changer for me, as it turns solid hits into proper moments.

Watch the total multiplier closely. When a multiplier lands and is part of a win, its value is added to that total. Then, for wins in the same bonus spin, the on-screen multiplier sum and the growing total multiplier both apply, so the payout is multiplied two times. It feels fair because only multipliers that help a win contribute, balancing the pace while offering real shot-making when a run of hits connects.

Retriggers are straightforward. Three or more Scatters during the feature add five extra spins rather than unlocking the initial pack again. In my experience, building a meaningful total multiplier takes a few winning spins, so extra time is valuable. The biggest results I’ve seen in this slot have come from sequences where several smaller multipliers fed the total, rather than a single huge value dropping once.

Bonus Buy in Starlight Princess 1000

Two options sit here. Ante Bet increases the natural trigger rate for Free Spins about two times while spending a quarter of the total stake each spin; that extra portion is not used in payout calculation, so it’s purely to reach the bonus faster. If I want certainty, I use Buy FS for x100 to enter the feature immediately. If the buy is greyed out, toggling off Ante Bet usually makes it available.

Symbols and Paytable for Starlight Princess 1000

There are nine regular icons scattered across the grid. Lower pays are coloured precious stones that return from x0.25 up to x10 across the 8–9, 10–11, and 12–30 tiers. Premiums are four more ornate items that reach x1.5 to x50 at the top tier. The Princess is the Scatter, paying on 4, 5, and 6 with x3, x5, and x100. Payouts use three bands, and above 12 of a kind there’s no extra step-up per symbol.

Multipliers are easy to spot: hearts with wings or a star inside a sphere. They roll random values from x2 to x1,000 and only matter when at least one win is present. After tumbling ends, the values of all multipliers on the screen are added and applied to the spin’s total. In the bonus, some of those that help a win also charge the separate total multiplier, which then applies alongside the on-screen sum.

Starlight Princess 1000 Game Stats

This is a high volatility slot with a max win of x15,000. RTP settings include 96.50%, 95%, and 94%. Buying the feature nudges the 96.50% version to 96.49%, while Ante Bet doesn’t change expected returns. From my sessions, the best route to sizeable hits is Free Spins, where the total multiplier can grow over several wins. Top outcomes can arrive in the base via a large multiplier too, but big values are rarer, so I rate bonus time higher.
