Explore the Universe in Betsoft’s Latest Slot Release — Expansion™

Mar 20, 2023 Artyom Ustinov
Are you a fan of stargazing? Do you own a telescope? If your answer to both of these questions is yes, you’ll love Betsoft’s brand-new slot game — Expansion™. This intergalactic adventure, loaded with free spins, an innovative directional wilds mechanic, stacked mystery symbols, and alien multipliers, will catapult you to another universe.
Expansion™ is the third slot Playson launched in 2023. Set across a 5x4 grid with 30 paylines and featuring an RTP of 96.08%, this alien-themed game offers juicy prizes up to 1,212.93x your bet. It comes with 10 standard and 2 special symbols, where the brown, purple, green, and blue planets and a shining star are the highest-paying ones. The special symbols are the wild and the scatter. Stacked mystery symbols can land on any reel, and their positions are replaced with random symbols before every spin. The great thing is that the same symbol fills these positions every time, increasing your winning chances.
However, directional wilds steal the show and are way more beneficial. They can appear on reels 2, 3, and 4 exclusively and trigger the ray gun that randomly shoots in one of 8 different directions. Each symbol hit by the ray will transform into a wild, hence the name, directional wild. As wilds line up in the same direction of the ray gun, your winning potential increases. Finally, you can activate the free spins mode once 3, 4, or 5 scatters (planet Mars) appear on the reels. Three scatters award 8 FS, four award 12, and five award 15. The free spins round also brings more multipliers, ranging from 2x to 10x, and the setting of the game changes into a UFO invasion. Those who don’t want to wait to trigger the bonus round can use the Buy-in feature and purchase free spins for a cost between 60x and 113x. Three options are available — 8 FS cost 60x, 12 FS cost 90x, and 15 FS cost 113x your bet. During a recent interview, the Head of Account Management at Betsoft Gaming, Anastasia Bauer, explained that Expansion™ portrayed the intergalactic genre in an original way. The developer achieved this by combining great mechanics and retro animation, creating a slot game that ensures an instantly engaging experience. Bauer added that this game's thrilling graphics and generous payouts would capture players' attention right off the bat. Plus, considering its wide betting range and medium volatility, the Betsoft team expects Expansion™ to be a great hit.
