Magic Stars 3

Three reels, and a stake ceiling of just 1.00. Wazdan capped the band at 0.01 to 1, so this is a low-stake machine by design rather than by accident. Paylines are fixed. Nothing cascades.

Level-2 variance against a 20,000× top line

The volatility reading is 2 of 5 — low-to-medium — which normally points to small, regular returns. The pattern is unusual. The maximum sits oddly beside that rating: listed at 20,000× the stake. Read the pair together and you get a gentle base game with a very thin top end. At 96.50% it clears the 96.08% catalogue median drawn from 9,226 games by 0.42 of a point, and Wazdan carries 373 titles in our data.

Penny players are the fit. A 0.01 minimum keeps long sessions cheap, and level-2 variance means the balance drains slowly rather than in lurches.

96.50% payback means close to 3.50% stays behind the counter across many rounds. Play 18+.
