Trekkie fans rejoice as Williams Interactive (WMS) have developed a number of online slots, six to be exact, based on the cult Sci-Fi television series. Climb aboard the starship USS Enterprise and prepare to be taken on a journey out of this world in the first of the series, Star Trek Episode 1 Red Alert. Let Captain Kirk be your guide to riches found in a far away galaxy.
Star Trek Episode 1 Red Alert Gameplay
Star Trek Episode 1 Red Alert is based on the original Star Trek TV series which ran from 1966-1969. The 5 reel and 25 payline slot has a retro arcade style look and feel and is set to a background of a far away galaxy with shooting stars and intermittent clips from the show. The wild symbol is the Star Trek symbol substituting for all other symbols to form your winning combinations. Other symbols include characters from the original series such as Dr. McCoy, Spock, Scotty and Captain Kirk as played by William Shatner. The remaining symbols are made up of an Evil Guy, a Medical Tricorder, a Communicator, Starfleet Insignias, Phaser Pistols, Klingon Birds, and a Feature scatter symbol.
Symbols payout from left to right and a win warp may occur after a winning spin which does not trigger a feature.
At the top of the screen you will see various galaxies to explore, each with their own story. As you play the game and trigger the Red Alert Feature or a 15x multiplier value, you earn a medal. Fifty medals advance you to the next episode to uncover a new galaxy adventure where treasures can be uncovered.
Scotty’s Wild Reel, Spock Multiplier and Enterprise Fly-By Feature
Beam me up Scotty with big wins when spinning in a Scotty symbol on reels one and two with Scotty wild icons turning the reels completely wild.
Another notable feature is the Spock multiplier which adds multipliers to your wins of between 3x and 10x when he appears.
The Enterprise Fly-By turns winning combinations into particular icons when the flying enterprise ship passes by thereby creating even more space-tastic wins.
Red Alert Feature
Three feature scatter symbols on an active payline will initiate the Red Alert Feature where you will spin for free on a new set of reels. During the Red Alert Feature you will be given five shields to protect yourself while the free spins play out. Each winning spin adds a multiplier level to your payout and can go up to 15x! If you have a losing free spin, you will lose one of your protective shields. There is a safety net here, however. If you see three or more “shields 100%” icons on a spin, you’ll gain back a shield.
When you’ve lost all of your protective five shields, the Red Alert Feature will end. The amazing part of this round is your free spins can be unlimited if you manage to hang onto your protective shields.
If you spin in four feature symbols, you automatically will be paid out a cash prize and five feature symbols awards 75.00 coins!
Summary
If you’re an online slot fan and a Trekkie, then Star Trek Episode 1 Red Alert is going to be the most entertainment you’ve had since watching re-runs of the classic Sci-Fi with one hand on a bottle of beer and the other in a bowl of popcorn.
