Wild Stars is a five-reel fruit slot from Amatic with a published return to player of 96%. That figure sits marginally above the 95.71% average across the games catalogued here and slightly below Amatic’s own 96.27% house average. If you want a straightforward fruit-symbol game and a free demo to test the rhythm of it, the wild stars slot qualifies. If you want documented volatility, paylines, or a stated maximum win, the published data does not cover those, and that gap is worth knowing before you stake anything.
Who makes Wild Stars
Amatic is the studio behind this title, and it has 176 games listed in this catalogue. That is a substantial back catalogue by any measure, and it tells you two useful things. First, Amatic is not a one-release outfit whose maths you have no context for. Second, its titles can be compared against each other, which is more informative than comparing a single game against the whole market.
Across those 176 games, the average return to player works out at 96.27%. Wild Stars returns 96%, so it sits a shade under the studio’s own typical figure. The difference is 0.27 percentage points, which on £100 of total wagering across a very large sample amounts to about 27p. Small, but it is a real difference rather than a rounding artefact, and over thousands of spins small edges are the only thing that separates one title from another mathematically.
Beyond RTP, no design details for this game are published in the data available here. Amatic slots as a group are known for fruit and classic formats, but that is a statement about the catalogue, not a promise about what appears on these five reels.
Where Wild Stars sits in the Amatic catalogue
Within Amatic’s range, 96% places this game in the lower-middle band. Compare it against Diamond Monkey, which is published at 97.49% — a gap of 1.49 percentage points, or roughly £1.49 less returned per £100 wagered over a very large sample. That is the single biggest mathematical argument for looking elsewhere in the same catalogue first.
Casanova’s Ladies is published at 97.1%, also ahead of this title. Billyonaire matches Wild Stars exactly at 96%, which makes it a like-for-like alternative on returns if you simply want a different set of reels at the same theoretical cost.
A caveat that matters: RTP is not the only variable, and a higher figure does not mean a smoother session. Two games at identical RTP can behave completely differently depending on how the wins are distributed. Since volatility ratings are not published for this title, you cannot make that second comparison on paper at all. You can only observe it, which is what the demo is for.
On popularity, Wild Stars ranks 2171, placing it in the 89.1st percentile of games tracked here. It gets played, without being a headline release.
RTP: 96.0% against a 96.27% house average
RTP is a long-run theoretical average, not a session forecast. A 96% figure means the game is modelled to return £96 for every £100 staked across a sample far larger than any individual will ever play — millions of spins, not thousands. Your own hundred spins can land anywhere: well above, well below, or nowhere near.

Put in practical terms: at £1 a spin over 500 spins you stake £500, and the modelled return on that is £480. The £20 difference is the house edge doing its work. Real sessions rarely land on the model, which is precisely why the average only describes the aggregate.
Against the 95.71% corpus average, this game is 0.29 points ahead. Against Amatic’s 96.27%, it is 0.27 points behind. Broadly average, in other words, with no published maximum win figure to weigh alongside it — treat any max-win number quoted elsewhere with caution.
Volatility and who it suits
No volatility rating is published for this game. That absence is itself information: you cannot plan a bankroll around a risk profile nobody has stated.
What volatility does in general is worth understanding anyway. Low-volatility games pay smaller amounts more often, which stretches a fixed budget across more spins and keeps the balance moving. High-volatility games pay less frequently but in larger amounts, which means longer dry stretches and a requirement for a deeper bankroll if you want to stay in the game long enough for the maths to express itself. Medium sits between the two.
The same RTP can sit on top of any of those distributions. A 96% return delivered in frequent small hits feels like a completely different game from a 96% return delivered in rare large ones, even though the long-run figure is identical.
Since you cannot look this up for Wild Stars, observe it instead. Run a few hundred demo spins and watch how often the balance ticks up and how deep the gaps run. That gives you a rough feel, though it is not a measurement. And every spin is independent — a long losing run does not make the next spin more likely to pay.
Playing Wild Stars slot for free
A free demo is available, which is the most useful fact on this page. It costs nothing, needs no deposit, and lets you check the pace, the layout and the stake options before deciding whether the game is worth real money. The Wild Stars free demo is the only way to assess what the missing volatility data would have told you.
Demo play uses play-money credits. Results in a demo tell you nothing about what a real-money session will do, because both are governed by independent random outcomes rather than by any pattern that carries over. Treat the demo as a fit test, not a forecast.
Play is for over-18s only. Set a budget before you start, treat it as the cost of entertainment rather than a way to make money, and stop when you reach the number you set. No stake pattern, spin timing or betting progression changes the expected return of any slot.
Stake range is not published here, so check it in the demo before you assume the game fits your session plan.
Similar picks
The fruit category is crowded — 2,560 games share the theme — so there is no shortage of alternatives. Hot Hot Fruit is published at 96.84%, which is 0.84 points ahead of Wild Stars and the stronger figure of the two on paper.
Going the other way, Trickstar Spins is published at 94%, a full two points below. On £100 of wagering across a very large sample, that is roughly £2 less returned, and it is a clear example of why checking the number before you play matters more than the theme.
Sevens High has no published RTP in this data at all. An unpublished figure is not a bad figure, but it does mean you have nothing to compare, and you would be playing on trust rather than numbers.
Verdict
Wild Stars is a competent middle-of-the-road option. The 96% RTP is 0.29 points above the corpus average and 0.27 below Amatic’s own, so on returns it is neither a standout nor a trap. Five reels, a fruit theme, and an 89.1st-percentile popularity rank round out a modest profile.
The reservations are about missing information rather than bad numbers. No volatility rating, no published paylines, no stated maximum win — so you cannot plan a session around documented specifics. Within the same catalogue, Diamond Monkey at 97.49% and Casanova’s Ladies at 97.1% both return more in theory.
If the fruit format appeals, start with the demo, spend a few hundred free spins learning how the game distributes its wins, and decide from there.
