Theme and Symbols

Basketball Star on Fire is an online video slot powered by Pulse 8 Studios software provider and it comes with a Sport theme.

Although it’s not the first slot from this company with such a theme and considering the fact that the graphics and the background have been completely copied from one of the previous releases, it still vibes out on a high level.

The background is pictured as the Basketball field, surrounded by crowded stands. The pay table matches the theme insanely well as there are Gold Medals, Snickers, Cold Energy Drinks, Mini Boards and Whistles as far as the medium-low paying icons are concerned.

The most lucrative icon is represented by a player in red jersey, might remind you of the famous Chinese player called Yao Ming, while the remaining 3 premiums are all depicted by players in action.

The Game Logo is the Wild Symbol while the Basketball serves as a Scatter.
