NetEnt’s Starburst Lands Fourth Consecutive Month as the Most Popular Slot

Feb 17, 2021 Anna Kiselova
After noticeable market fluctuations in Q4 in 2020, Starburst got back on its feet and continues to dominate the iGaming industry as the most popular online slot game. In October last year, Starburst’s main rival, Book of Dead by Play’n Go ousted it and led the race for an entire month.

However, Starburst ended the last year in the top spot and continues to hold onto it, making February 2021 its fourth consecutive month on the throne. According to iGaming Tracker’s list of top-performing slots, the current top five games include:

  • Starburst by NetEnt
  • Book of Dead by Play’n GO
  • Fruit Shop Megaways by NetEnt
  • Bonanza by Big Time Gaming
  • Gonzo’s Quest Megaways by Red Tiger.

Let’s have a quick walk down memory lane. Starburst was launched by NetEnt almost a decade ago, in 2012 to be precise. It quickly gained the players’ attention thanks to its superb design, engaging gameplay, and fantastic features.

To our surprise, the game had medium volatility; however, over time, we realised that’s precisely what made it so famous and loved by players from all corners of the world. Its simple rules, galactic visuals and hypnotising audio effects turned it into a hit.

The game features a 5×3 see-through grid with ten paylines. What made it revolutionary was that NetEnt allowed operators to adjust the game RTP, ranging from 90.05% – 99.06% depending on the market.
