Launch to Riches: a gem-themed space slot with 1024 ways

Launch to Riches puts you on 1024 ways. You're playing a 5-reel, 4-row slot set in a space theme where gems and fuel cells spin across 1024 ways to win. Symbols pay left to right on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost side. The Rocket Feature triggers whenever a Collect symbol lands, revealing money or bonus values behind asteroid tiles. This medium-high volatility game came out in May 2026 and suits players who prefer bigger wins arriving less frequently.

Does this volatility match your session? You'll want this slot if you're comfortable with swings between smaller and larger payouts, and you enjoy bonus rounds that trigger often. The Rocket Feature activates on most spins through Collect symbols, keeping gameplay engaging. With bets from NZ$0.20 to NZ$360, you can set stakes that match your session plan. However, if you prefer steady smaller wins or want a low-risk introduction to slots, the medium-high volatility means you might wait longer between payouts.

Asteroids and bombs build bonus multipliers. The Rocket Feature shapes most rounds. When Collect symbols land on the base reels, a grid of face-down asteroid tiles appears above them. You reveal tiles to uncover money values or bonus multipliers, ranging from 0.5x your bet up to 5000x. Some reveals trigger bombs that award adjacent prizes and chain other bombs, turning a single Collect into multiple payouts. This mechanic runs throughout both the main game and free spins rounds.

How a round of Launch to Riches unfolds

Follow one complete round to see where your bet goes and when you collect your win.

From NZ$0.20 to the maximum
You choose your bet amount before each spin. Launch to Riches lets you bet from NZ$0.20 to NZ$360 per round. The paytable and win amounts adjust to match whatever you stake.
Match three or more to win
Three or more matching symbols anywhere on the 5x4 grid form a win and pay out. The gem and card symbols show their payouts in the table when you land them on adjacent reels from left to right.
What the base game delivers
Most of your spins land normal symbol combinations. When a COLLECT symbol appears during a base game spin, it triggers the Rocket Feature and takes you into a bonus round without ending your spin.
Three scatters trigger Free Spins
Land three or more SCATTER symbols anywhere to start Free Spins. You get 10 spins for three scatters, plus 2 extra spins for each additional scatter symbol you land.
Limits protect your session
Before you start, you can set loss limits, session time limits or other controls through Myempire Casino's responsible gambling tools. These help you manage your session from the first spin.

Rocket Feature and Free Spins explained

Collect symbols unlock rewards. Any COLLECT symbol on the base reels triggers this round. A grid of face-down asteroid tiles appears; rockets reveal money values from 0.5x to 12.5x bet or BONUS values from 12.5x to 5000x bet. Some reveals are bombs that award adjacent prizes and chain to other bombs.

When scatters land. Land 3 or more SCATTER symbols anywhere to start 10 spins; each extra scatter adds 2 more. You play on a 5x1 reel strip below a 5x7 asteroid grid with the top row already revealed. COLLECT symbols fire rockets to reveal money or BONUS values. Clearing all asteroids applies a random 1x to 10x multiplier to your round win.

Buy your way to the bonus. You can buy this feature before a spin. Super Free Spins work like Free Spins but with enhanced mechanics. The exact rules apply as described in the Free Spins feature, with modifications that make bonus wins larger.

Before and after the bonus. Spin the 5 reels across 4 rows and win on 1024 ways. Symbols pay left to right on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost reel when you match 3 or more of the same symbol. Gems, fuel cells, scanners and letter symbols all land here.

RTP explained

Standard play versus bought bonuses: the RTP difference

RTP is the average return over a very large number of spins across all outcomes. When you buy a bonus or play the standard game, each version has its own RTP figure that applies only to that condition.

Return per NZ$100NZ$96.52

Know what you cannot know in advance

When does the bonus round show up? When the Rocket Feature arrives is random. No pattern tells you it is coming, and some sessions have none. Play expecting long stretches of base game only.

Your session outcome is always random. Your session result is chance, not certainty. The RTP of 96.52% is what happens across thousands of spins, not what your next hour will deliver.

Maximum win is a rare exception. The maximum win of NZ$1,800,000 is a theoretical ceiling. Reaching it is extraordinarily rare and no session is likely to come close.

Set a session limit. Decide what you can afford to lose on this slot before your first spin and stick to it. Your budget is the only amount you should bring to the game.

When will you quit? Choose a stopping point in advance, whether you win or lose. Winning big does not mean you should keep playing Launch to Riches longer.

What limits protect you? Use Myempire's deposit limits and loss limits to control what you spend. These tools work across your whole account and stay active until you change them.

Fun versus dependence. If Launch to Riches stops being entertainment and starts feeling like something you need to do, pause your play or self-exclude. Gambling Helpline New Zealand and The Problem Gambling Foundation are there if you need support.
