Supernova Galaxy Orbs Slot Review – Demo, RTP & Features

Supernova Galaxy Orbs is a Hacksaw Gaming slot that heads into deep space but brings a surprisingly old-school collection of fruit-machine symbols along for the journey.

Instead of the darker themes and unconventional mechanics often associated with the studio, this release combines colourful neon space visuals with fruits, bells, Hold & Win gameplay and fixed jackpot prizes.

The game uses 5 reels and 26 pay-lines, with a 96.23% RTP on its highest-return configuration, a 41.61% hit frequency and medium volatility.

Alternative RTP versions of 94.40%, 92.35% and 86.33% are also available, so the version offered by the casino is worth checking. Bets range from 0.10 to 100, while the maximum win is 5,000x the bet.

Regular symbols mix card ranks with watermelons, cherries, oranges, grapes and bells. Wilds can appear across all reels and substitute for the normal paying symbols.

The conventional paytable isn’t really the main attraction, though. Supernova Galaxy Orbs revolves around its Red Orbs, Blue Orbs, Coin prizes, Hold & Win sequences and Sphere Factor Free Spins.

Game Features

Landing a Red Orb triggers the Hold & Win feature with 3 spins. The normal symbols disappear, leaving a special grid containing Red Orbs, Coins, Jackpot symbols and empty positions.

Whenever a new Red Orb, Coin or Jackpot lands, it remains locked in place and the remaining-spin counter resets. Coins carry increasingly valuable prizes depending on their type:

• Bronze Coins: 0.2x–2x
• Silver Coins: 3x–10x
• Gold Coins: 15x–50x
• Diamond Coins: 100x–1,000x

Once no spins or empty positions remain, the Jackpot symbols reveal their values before each Red Orb collects the values of all Coins and Jackpots on the grid. This creates the possibility of collecting the same accumulated pool more than once when multiple Red Orbs are present.

Fixed Jackpots

Jackpot symbols can reveal one of four fixed prizes:

• Mini – 10x
• Major – 50x
• Mega – 500x
• Max Win – 5,000x

The 5,000x prize also represents the overall maximum win available in Supernova Galaxy Orbs.

Blue Orbs

Blue Orbs provide a different collection mechanic without sending the game into Hold & Win. After regular wins have been calculated, every Blue Orb collects the values displayed by Coin and Jackpot symbols currently on the grid.

As many as 3 Blue Orbs can appear together, potentially creating several collections from the same screen. Blue and Red Orbs cannot appear simultaneously.

Sphere Factor Free Spins

Landing 3, 4 or 5 Scatters awards 10, 15 or 20 Free Spins, respectively. The Sphere Factor bonus increases the likelihood of Red Orbs appearing, making Hold & Win sequences a more important part of the feature. Coin values inside these Hold & Win rounds also start at a minimum of 1x the bet.

Scatters can add more spins during the feature, with 2, 3, 4 or 5 Scatters awarding an additional 3, 5, 7 or 10 Free Spins.

Feature Buys

Hacksaw Gaming provides several optional FeatureSpins and direct bonus purchases where permitted:

• BonusHunt FeatureSpins – 2x: increases the chance of triggering a bonus by 3x.
• Cosmic FeatureSpins – 75x: guarantees a Red Orb and therefore a Hold & Win sequence, with Coin values starting from at least 1x.
• Galactic FeatureSpins – 500x: guarantees 1–5 Blue Orbs, with the remaining positions occupied by qualifying Coins or Jackpot symbols.
• Sphere Factor – 65x: directly triggers the Free Spins bonus.
