About Butterfly Staxx

The theme, of course, is what the name of the game suggests, namely butterflies. You get to travel to a tropical, suggestive environment, where you will want to see butterflies and flowers on the reels for big wins. Of course, you'll want the coveted features for even bigger wins.

Game features

NetEnt is known for inventing new gaming features. Although Butterfly Staxx may not include quite as many features you are used to when it comes to NetEnt's slots, they do not disappoint. With fluttering butterflies on the reels, flying to a new position on the reels to give you more chances to win, you will still get carried away with the game's features.

The game is otherwise relatively classic in its design, with 5 reels, 3 rows and 40 bet lines. The theoretical payout is 96.8%, which is quite acceptable. If you like jackpots, then, however, there is no such in this game.

What you should aim for, however, are the scatter symbols, so that you can activate Butterfly Spins. Even the Re-spins feature can give good payouts if you are lucky. Of course, The Butterfly Staxx slot machine can be played on the computer, but also on the mobile, so you can sit in the summer sun and enjoy the butterflies of reality as they flock the$ing flowers.

Random wilds

The wild symbol consists of a colorful tropical flower, which in both the main game and in the Re-spins mode can appear anywhere on the reels. As usual in NetEnt's games, it can substitute for all symbols, except scatter symbols. Since the Butterfly Spins feature is slightly more special than a regular free spins mode, the scatter symbol cannot appear when this is activated. And why, we'll tell you more about later.

Re-spins

In Butterfly Staxx, the Re-spins feature occurs, just like in several other slot machines of NetEnt . It is triggered when a stack of the shimmering butterflies, The Butterfly symbols, covers an entire reel. Then the game gets a really nice effect, because all the butterflies then fly to the wheel as far to the left as possible, which does not have a Butterfly symbol on it. Because if there is already a butterfly on one of the lines, the Butterfly symbol that ended up on the same line stays next to this one and another Re-spin is promised.

The best part is that the butterflies stay in their positions until the Re-spin mode ends, which happens when no more Butterfly symbols appear on the reels anymore. If you are lucky, there may be many rounds of Re-spins before your winnings are paid out.

Scatter symbols

Of course, the game also has a scatter symbol, which, like the wild symbol, consists of a tropical flower. The scatter symbols activate the special Butterfly Spins feature. It's no ordinary free spins feature, although it may only look like one when triggered and shows the number of Butterfly Spins you get on the screen. At most you can get 7 Butterfly Spins, which we might think is a bit stingy, as many other games can give you up to 10 freespins , if not even more.

However, this is how many free spins you can get in Butterfly Staxx, depending on how many scatter symbols appear on the screen:

3 scatter symbols – 5 Butterfly Spins
4 scatter symbols – 6 Butterfly Spins
5 scatter symbols – 7 Butterfly Spins

Butterfly spins

It's when you activate the Butterfly Spins mode that the fun begins to happen. This is a kind of Free Spins mode, where you get free game rounds. What we meant by it being different from a regular free spins round is that only the Cocoon symbol appears on the reels in a first position. As we mentioned earlier, the wild symbol cannot land on the reels, when this mode is activated. You also cannot get Re-spins during this feature, so the initial number of free spins you are promised is also what you get and after that you proceed to the main game and the round that activated the Butterfly Spins.

The Cocoon symbol in the Butterfly Spins feature looks exactly as the name suggests and is illustrated as a green cocoon, matching the sunset in the background. When the feature starts, the background music changes and you are taken to a couple of exciting game rounds with cocoons and butterflies. Because what is special about the Cocoon symbol is that it can either be dormant or active. If it is active, it lights up and releases the beautiful Butterfly symbol.

After that, basically the same procedure is repeated as during the Re-spins function, that is, the Butterfly symbol flies to the position on the far left of the row on which it ended up, and lands on a place that is not already covered by a butterfly. It stays here until the Butterfly Spins feature is over.

Golden Butterfly

We would like to add that the golden yellow butterfly in Butterfly Staxx is also the symbol with the highest payout value, which of course adds to The Butterfly Spins, as it becomes the only symbol besides The Cocoon symbol that appears. This allows you to get a payout of up to$480,000 during the Butterfly Spins round.

To mention the other symbols in the game, the flowers are the second most valuable and all have equal value whether they are pink, purple or blue. The least valuable symbols are the A, K, Q and J symbols, which are also equally valuable in their payout. You can of course read more about this in the slot's payout table, which you can find by clicking on the ”i” button in the lower left corner of the game.

Since the game has a maximum bet of$ 4,000, Butterfly Staxx can mean really big wins, despite the previously mentioned lack of the jackpot feature. But it is still the tropical environment and the beautiful, fluttering butterflies that captivate us when we play the slot machine.
