It’s elemental my dear, that this Elemental mobile slot lacks the fineness and excitement of other Starburst like slots.
It’s no secret that Starburst has got to be one of the most successful online slots of the last decade, so of course, other providers have tried to duplicate its success.
Betsoft has Boomanji, Fantasma created The Grid game, and even NetEnt are cashing in on their most famous property by creating the Berryburst slots.
None have quite the appeal of the original, but the idea is the same; you create a low variance slot machine, with easy wins, and expanding wilds that give you a free re-spin.
It’s a credit to Leander Gaming that rather than copy Starburst slot machine, instead, they’ve tried to put their own unique twist on this casino game.
For one, they have (controversially) made it so you only get paid for 3 of a kind wins – not 4 or 5 of a kind.
They can do that because here you get wins whenever 3 symbols sit anywhere on one of the 20 paylines.
So, for example, if you do get 5 symbols on one of the payline, you actually get 3x 3 of a kind wins; a win on reels 1, 2 and 3, a win on reels 2, 3 and 4, and a win on reels 3, 4, and 5.
The sunshine symbol is wild and will cover a whole reel and give you a free re-spin – it will even keep going if you get more wild symbols.
And you know what, it’s visually very pretty; with runes and ancient stones making you feel like you are in the middle of an Enchanted Forest and a mystical Druid may show up at any point and help you become one with nature.
It’s so pretty in fact, you might not even notice that the wins are tiny, even though you get multiple 3 of a kind wins constantly, and plenty of wilds.
We calculated and 5 wilds on all 5 reels over all 20 paylines give you just 150 times your bet. Even the lowest variance slot games from NetEnt have higher max wins.
If it wasn’t for that, this Elemental slot game by Leander could always be worth spinning.

Pay Anywhere: 3 like symbols pay anywhere on payline; so reels 1, 2, 3 would make a win, but so would one on reel 2, 3 and 4, or 4, 5 or 6.
It has to be over a payline however, a bit like the Legend of the White Snake Lady game by Yggdrasil.
Expanding Wilds: The wild show up and covers the whole of any reel. You will then get one free re-spin of the rest of the reels.
You will keep getting re-spins if you get more expanding wilds, and the wilds stay on screen until no more wild symbols show up.
We were captivated by the pretty theme of this Elemental mobile game and were even intrigued by the setup.
We even forgave Leander Gaming studios their 3 symbol wins only paytable, seeing as you got wins anywhere on the payline.
But what we can't forgive is the very low pay on a very low variance slot machine that doesn't even try and pretend like there is hope for more.
Even Starburst boast a 500x your kind win, as hard as that is to reach.
Honestly, it's probably better to play on the Afterlife Inferno slot machine, which showcases their multi-bonus mechanics much better.
