Starburst
Starburst is one of the most iconic online slots ever crafted, and on Ladbrokes it looks and plays better than ever. Built by NetEnt, this space-themed gem runs across 5 reels and 10 paylines — paying both ways — making every single spin a genuine opportunity. The visuals are crisp, the soundtrack pulses with cosmic energy, and the gameplay is clean enough for complete beginners yet satisfying enough for seasoned spinners.
The star of the show is the Starburst Wild. Land it on reels 2, 3, or 4 and it expands to cover the entire reel, locking in place while the other reels re-spin — completely free of charge. Land wilds on multiple reels and you can trigger up to three re-spins in a single sequence. It's fast, it's thrilling, and it keeps you right on the edge of your seat. With a theoretical RTP of around 96.1%, it sits comfortably in the solid-value range for casual and regular players alike.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do the Starburst Wilds work on Ladbrokes?
When a Starburst Wild lands on reel 2, 3, or 4, it expands to fill the full reel and triggers a free re-spin. If another wild appears during that re-spin, it also expands and another re-spin is awarded — up to a maximum of three re-spins per sequence.
Does Starburst pay in both directions on Ladbrokes?
Yes — Starburst pays from left to right and right to left across its 10 fixed paylines. This dual-direction mechanic doubles your chances of landing a winning combination on every spin.
