Astronaut

Astronaut’s payout percentage is at 96%. For a game with extremely high variance, this is fine, especially when the maximum win is at 48,000 times your bet. We would like to know if the game is as fun as the live variant. Quickly read how Astronaut comes out of the test in this slot machine review.

How to play Astronaut

Playing Astronaut is different from playing a regular slot. Still, you first choose your bet. This is minimum $0.10 and maximum $2 per round. If you click spin after this, the RNG will start rummaging in a bin full of crystals. At the beginning of the game, this contains 19 green crystals, 8 red and 1 gold shield.

A brand new addition to Red Tiger’s collection – Astronaut!

If you draw a green crystal or the gold shield, you may continue playing. You are given three choices:

• Continue as usual
• Cash out half and continue
• Cash out all

The round ends if you cash out all or if you encounter a red crystal. On the first round, there is a 28.6% chance that this is the case. The longer you continue, the greater the chance of a red crystal. The odds are always shown at the top, as is the distribution of unused crystals.

Bonus features of Astronaut

If you obtain all 19 green crystals without failing, you win the maximum profit of 18,000 times your bet. As you would expect, this is very rare and risky. Astronaut has a single bonus feature to help you and increase the maximum win to 48,000 times your bet.

Gold Shield

We have already mentioned the golden shield several times. It is not only a symbol that allows you to continue playing with peace of mind. In addition, it has a special function to help you.

As a shield, it protects you from the next red crystal. After drawing this shield, you switch into a kind of Free Spins mode. You don’t have to keep pressing the spin button, but the game continues until you draw a red crystal. After this, you are presented with the three options again. Moreover, you switch to advanced mode with increased payout.

Astronaut compared to 3 other slots from Red Tiger

You may already know the game behind Astronaut from the live casino. The advantage to playing this as a slot machine is that you decide how fast or slow you move forward. No annoying clock of several seconds to make a decision. In addition, there is even a turbo feature to make the spins faster.

In the casino, you already had Aviator and Spaceman, two similar games. The difference, however, is that with Astronaut you have more information about your odds. You know with each spin what the probability of failure is. Aviator and Spaceman are hugely random, there is no way to predict whether they crash after 1.01 or only after 101.

But original the game is thus not. However, the design does play to the inner spaceman.
