888starz Slots — Hundreds of Games, One Platform
From classic three-reel slots to the Megaways mechanic — 888starz has slots for every budget and taste. Find out which type of game suits you and how to make the right choice.
How many types of slots are there and what sets them apart?
Slot games can generally be divided into four main categories. Each category has different mechanics, payline structure, and prize structure — so it is worth understanding the differences before choosing a game.
Classic Slots: Usually 3 reels and limited paylines. Old-style games featuring symbols like cherries, bars, or sevens. A good starting point for players on a tight budget or beginners.
Video Slots: 5 or more reels, many paylines, and bonus rounds, free spins, or multipliers. PG Soft's Fortune Tiger or Pragmatic Play's Gates of Olympus are examples of this type. They are rich in theme and offer far more features.
Megaways Slots: In this mechanic invented by Big Time Gaming, reel height changes with every spin, pushing the number of ways to win into the thousands. Bonanza Megaways and White Rabbit Megaways are well-known examples.
Jackpot Slots: Fixed jackpot or progressive jackpot — in the latter, the prize grows with every bet placed. There is a chance of one large win, but volatility is generally higher.
RTP figures for familiar slots
RTP (Return to Player) is the theoretical percentage of total bets that a game returns to players over the long run. A high RTP does not guarantee a win in a short session — it is a statistical average.
| Game Name | Developer | Maximum RTP | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fortune Mouse | PG Soft | 96.96% | Video Slot |
| Mahjong Ways 2 | PG Soft | 96.95% | Video Slot |
| White Rabbit Megaways | Big Time Gaming | 97.72% | Megaways |
| Super Ace | JILI | 97% | Video Slot |
| Fortune Gems 2 | JILI | 97% | Video Slot |
| Mahjong King | CQ9 Gaming | 97.20% | Video Slot |
| Gates of Olympus | Pragmatic Play | 96.50% | Video Slot |
| Bonanza Megaways | Big Time Gaming | 96% | Megaways |

Key features of the four slot types at a glance
3 reels, simple paylines. Playable with small bets. Ideal starting point for beginners.

Medium–High VolatilityThousands of ways to win on every spin. Dynamic reel mechanic with the potential for big wins.
High VolatilityFixed or progressive prizes. A single spin can deliver a life-changing win.
Highest VolatilityVolatility, theme, and budget — three criteria
The first step to choosing the right slot is being honest about your budget. With a small budget, low volatility games give you more playing time. A larger budget opens up high volatility games where a big win is more possible — but drawdowns are also larger.
Volatility vs RTP: Volatility measures how often and how large the rewards are. RTP is the long-term theoretical return rate. A high RTP does not guarantee profit in every session, but it does offer relatively better expected returns over time.
Theme and features: Mythology, fruit, adventure, or animal themes — 888starz has games across a wide range of themes. PG Soft's Fortune series (Fortune Tiger, Fortune Rabbit, Fortune Dragon) is popular among Bangladeshi players because the visuals are familiar and the mechanics are straightforward.
Bet size planning: The minimum bet differs per game. Divide your total session budget across at least 50 spins. This gives you time to understand the game and reduces the risk of running out of balance quickly.
Which slot suits which type of player?
Players with a small budget
Choose low volatility classic or video slots. In games like Fortune Gems or Lucky Neko, keep bets small and look for games where bonus rounds trigger more frequently.
Players looking for big wins
Go for Megaways or high volatility games — Bonanza Megaways, White Rabbit Megaways, or Nolimit City's Fire in the Hole xBomb. Wins are irregular but can be large.
Players who enjoy themes and storytelling
Enjoy the rich themes of video slots. PG Soft's Mahjong Ways or Pragmatic Play's Starlight Princess add variety across longer sessions.
888starz also has live casino games beyond slots — if you prefer table games or a live dealer, visit the 888starz Casino page.
Familiar games from PG Soft and JILI
PG Soft's Fortune series is particularly well known among Bangladeshi players. Fortune Tiger (maximum RTP 96.81%), Fortune Rabbit (96.75%), and Fortune Dragon (96.74%) — each game is favoured for its simple mechanics and frequent bonus triggers.
JILI's Boxing King and Golden Empire are relatively new but have grown popular quickly. Jackpot Joker (maximum RTP 97.23%) is a notable JILI game with the potential to trigger a jackpot.
CQ9 Gaming's Mahjong King (97.20%) and Hacksaw Gaming's Wanted Dead or a Wild (96.38%) are attracting interest among newer players. The mechanics differ across these games, but all of them are available on the same platform at 888starz.
These games are also available on the 888starz app. To learn more about the app, visit the 888starz App page.

Things to keep in mind before you start
Before playing a new slot, take a few spins at a low bet to get a feel for the game's pace. It is better not to place large bets before you understand how often bonus rounds come and how the paylines work.
The game interface usually has a "Paytable" or "Game Rules" option — this lists the rules for wild, scatter, and bonus symbols. Reading it before your first play saves time.
In Megaways games, the "Max Bet" is generally very high — avoid this option if your budget does not support it. Playing more spins at a moderate bet is a more effective approach.
