As we all know, and as Captain Kirk famously reminds us, space is the final frontier; space is of course quite big and clearly contains a lot of stuff but we don’t want to bore you with the technical details, we’ll just tell you about this new online slot from Random Logic called Ultimate Universe.

When you first load it up it opens with a intro movie containing the Milky Way and showing the destruction of a planet by a speeding comet.  Some suitably dramatic music accompanies the world-ending collision and then clicking OK will take you to the game screen.

Ultimate Universe is a five reel and twenty five payline slot with some lovely clear, space-related graphics; the reels spin on a transparent wall through which we can see planets stretching away into the distance.

There’s a fantastic range of galactic symbols to enjoy including a blue-tailed comet streaking through the void, an exploding meteorite, an exploding star, a satellite, an astronaut on a space walk and a space shuttle.  Planets in front of a sun represent the scatter symbol and the game’s logo, ‘Ultimate Universe’, is the wild.  Brushed silver J, Q, K and A are the lower value symbols.

Bonus Features

Free Spins

There’s plenty of free spins available in this slot and to trigger them you’ll have to land three, four or five of the sun/planets symbols anywhere on the reels.  If you can achieve this you will be rewarded with 15, 25 or 50 spins respectively.

Fifty free spins is not a bad outcome but it’s more likely you’ll end with fifteen or twenty five although those numbers are nothing to be sniffed at.  Additionally more spins can be triggered by landing more scatter symbols during this bonus phase.  The astronaut also acts as a wild here and will multiply winnings by 2x.

Wild Symbol

If you can manage to land a winning combo which contains the wild symbols it will be subject to a 2x multiplier.

Verdict

Science fiction fans and space enthusiasts will enjoy this slot for the impressive visuals but all slots fans should appreciate the overall look of the game, the free spins bonus and the engaging background music.
