### 3/5 — Needs work

*2026-07-25, version 2.1.61*

Game keeps freezing in the middle of spins causing coins to be lost. Score is slow to calculate. When free spins are awarded, you have to count the spins instead of them being displayed. I’m waiting to see if my coin purchase for five days of coins actually works.

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2026-07-16, version 2.1.61*

If I wasn’t a Boyd Rewards Member I wouldn’t even bother with this app. It’s great they have some of my favorite casino games on the app but the bonuses suck and don’t happen often. And I would love to know how I can log in to the app everyday and I get the same 625 credits in the rocket wheel bonus and that’s the lowest amount on this wheel! And really 300 free credit coins doesn’t do anything for any game you want to play. Some days the game will pay you out and then after that you lose all your coins and have to build up your bank again. And I been playing this game for years and I don’t think you earn tier credits at all. Not worth your time.

### 4/5 — Fun Games

*2026-03-17, version 2.1.61*

I'm enjoying the app so far, but I'm wondering if I truly earn Boyd's rewards after purchase. How long does the Boyd points upload process take? Thank you

### 3/5 — Well that was fun.

*2025-09-19, version 2.1.43*

I had they enjoyed this app until the most recent update and they took away all of my favorite games. There has been an influx of slingo games which are practically impossible to earn on and all of the Konami games are also practically impossible to earn on except when you first try them. I think that is an enticement to keep playing but I avoid them as much as possible. It’s a game. Let people win more than occasionally, it does not cost you anything. I’ll probably play until my credits are gone, but it is not nearly as enjoyable anymore.

### 2/5 — I like this app but

*2024-11-16, version 2.1.29*

This type of casino game is cool because it actually has some of the nice games on the real online casinos but there’s one problem there’s not enough coins/ playing time!! I want to play more but the free coins you get every day might last a couple spins which is not long at all!

### 1/5 — Stardust has turned to JUNK slots

*2024-07-10*

July 2024 update:  all these new games that have been added… for what!?

More delete and reinstall due to company’s inability to maintain gaming site.  Constantly crashing now.  Having to make bigger bets.

So many things wrong with the UPDATED version!!!!!

_______________________________________________________

I’ve been playing Stardust for years on my iPad or computer, but for the last year - the slots and support team are nothing but a waste of what used to be a fun time and getting a decent response. The wheels, on pretty much all the games, stick or are sluggish to the point of doom. The Whale game is a joke in that the fourth column hardly ever fills in all the way. Free coins that are offered are not delivered to account when time to collect. All of this I have written to Support team about and get the same garbage about needing to delete and reinstall game. I have done this so many times that it’s ridiculous! It has ZERO positive results. Stardust was once one of the best free slots to play, but now - forget it! I mean, it may work if I want to constantly BUY coins, but then I could go to a casino and do that for real and probably have better luck!

**Developer response:** Deleted and re-downloaded???  Livenlearn, something doesn't sound right... Let's get this fixed. Please email us at stardustsocialcasinoapp@boydgaming.com (include your Stardust user ID) and we'll have a senior support agent reach out to you.

### 1/5 — Rewards

*2024-06-16, version 2.0.77*

What’s rewards?? Is this a joke..

### 3/5 — Games not loading

*2024-06-09, version 2.0.77*

Just loaded the app a couple of days ago. Everything was going pretty good then yesterday many of the games say error and won’t load. Hard to stay interested when wins are small and games are not loading.

### 1/5 — Bad Game Change

*2024-05-19, version 2.0.77*

I played the original Starbucks daily ,often was leader of the week.This new version is not good, too many and non-paying.
I have deleted the app,  it is a waste of time and not fun.

### 1/5 — No wins

*2024-05-13, version 2.0.77*

I had a lot of coins and not get a bonus is extremely hard to get a bonus. You were run out of coins. There’s other games that I played different apps and don’t take that long to get a bonus or expand your coins. This is very disappointing because it’s also linked to my casino card.

### 4/5 — The Boyd Points

*2024-04-01, version 2.0.66*

What happen to the Boyd Points that we used to received when you finished in Top Ten. That is one of the main reason I played hard to make the it there!  I keep getting error when playing the Jack or Better Video Poker and reinstalling the App on my Iphone.

### 2/5 — Miss the old version

*2024-03-20, version 2.0.66*

Haven’t played much since the update. Miss the sporadic emails with coin offers. Not much game play on minimal free coins and I rather save my cash to play on my visits to IP. Contemplating deleting the app altogether

### 1/5 — Not available in my region?

*2024-02-27, version 2.0.66*

You have absolutely zero reason to know my location if I want to use this app. First step after downloading it was to enable location services. Why? I did not enable location services, got a message that said the app was not available in my region, so I deleted it.

### 1/5 — Help

*2024-02-24, version 2.0.66*

What with the changes, I loved the games that were available before these new ones are like so many others boring and no fun

### 1/5 — Account issues

*2024-02-23, version 2.0.66*

I literally cannot even log into the casino. It says that I’m not even an existing person that my information like my birthday and my card then I’m looking right at my card number I know my birthday and I know my last name and is telling me that they cannot find me so I can’t log into the account.

### 2/5 — Bugs not worked out and Winner, winner and Psst notifications do generate coins for user

*2024-02-16, version 2.0.66*

In addition, the Winner, winner and Psst notifications do not generate coins for user. I no longer get these notifications on my IPad and those received on my IPhone do not provide additional coins. The humor is that the counter spins, but the count is unchanged. 
The updated version does not have any of the previous version games. These are not additional games but all different games. Get notifications of coins and launch, but app does not show that. You have to close the game and often restart your device to get the launch or coins. Launch still showing day 1 or day 2, so that is not accurate. In trying to open some games, I get a black screen. So disappointed.

### 1/5 — new games

*2024-02-16, version 2.0.66*

Hate the new games, very generic and cheap looking.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-06-19, version 2.1.61*

Resembles casino but not even remotely there. There are much better options in the marketplace, would not recommend, waste of time.

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2025-08-12, version 2.1.43*

In person is much better. The coins don’t last at all

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-06-14, version 2.1.39*

I thought I would join this social casino to help bump up my casino tier points on my Boyds rewards as it says it does. It does not!! I’ve spent every day on this game and haven’t received one Boyds point. Ive also purchased coins which is so dumb! Why spend money on coins that don’t get you real money?? Go to the real casino app. Also all of their casino games start at like 200 point bets and it never adds up correctly. Your points in the upper left may show you have 3000 points but while you’re playing the game only says you have 1500 and you end up only getting 7 spins. It makes absolutely no sense to me. The app is poorly thought out, confusing and does not do what it says it’s going to do. Do not waste your money and just go straight to the casino.

### 1/5 — T

*2025-04-30, version 2.1.39*

Waste of time constantly freezing tried support but Captcha wanted me to select a dot with nothing beside it so couldn’t contact support

### 1/5 — They scammed me $35

*2025-04-09, version 2.1.39*

They use deceptive practices make you believe it’s a real sweepstakes casino, it’s not I accidentally deposited went through customer service send emails less than 20 min asking for refund and they denied it, their business model is to fool you into deposit, they are thieves

### 1/5 — Horrible when compared to hardrock social app

*2025-02-28, version 2.1.29*

They do not provide you with enough free coins to start and daily free coupons barely covers one spin. I’m not going to to spend money in an app that doesn’t provide enough to start.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time or your $$ playing any of these online games… “payout” is so low it’s absurd!

*2024-12-31*

I don’t typically leave reviews for mobile apps, however with this particular one I feel like I need to.  And that is simply because I would hope that other players  would give me the same “heads up” that I’m about to give to someone else who hopefully takes the time to read this.  I was excited to learn upon utilizing the Boyd’s casino app that as a casino goer myselfI would be earning freebies and discounted merch/services just for playing a free version of many of the same games I love to play in person when visiting the KS Star.  I was quickly disappointed however upon discovering that the actual coin pay out and odds of a winning  spin are practically next to nothing i. comparison the amount/frequency of free coins allotted within the app.  Of course there’s the option to purchase additional coins, but why in Gods name would anyone want to waste their cash on playing a casino game that does not pay out anything, let alone actual real cash money!  What a waste of time… and oh so disappointing. 😫

### 1/5 — Awful, don’t waste your time

*2024-11-03, version 2.1.29*

This is horrible. The ONLY good thing about it is the games are the same as the real casino. But it doesn’t matter because you barely get any coins, even when you spin the wheel at the very beginning you are lucky to get even 1,000 on the wheel. Most of the time it’s $625 or $750. You barely get to play. Maybe about 5 minutes and that’s being extremely generous. Winning is extremely rare and forget bonuses because if you’re lucky enough to get bonus spins you won’t win anything. I had actually hit for 100 bonus spins and I won maybe $5,000. Which in the app is basically Pennie’s. I mean, it’s fake money for crying out loud. This app can’t even let you win fake money? Seriously? I have yet to read a good review about it. All the reviews I have read gets a response from the developer offering free coins. That does absolutely nothing. How about actually do something about the problem. This is NOT the only app that has actual casino games. I’ll stick to those other ones as, they actually pay out.

### 1/5 — Email 2,000 free coins

*2024-08-29, version 2.1.12*

Link in email doesn’t work. Yes, I followed the step by step instructions. No free coins. Daily bonus coins lasts maybe 5-7 spins. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Worse than Boyd Casino play

*2024-08-25, version 2.1.12*

Wow. Daily free coins allow for about seven to ten spins at minimum bet. Tried this app for a week—one bonus with winnings less than my bet. Deleted app.

### 5/5 — Concerned and aware

*2025-02-28, version 2.1.29*

I have a question and I just want to be aware if this is a real casino app or not i just want to make sure because I don’t want to set up a account and real email and if I did that my mom and my dad would find out and I could get into trouble I just want to make sure

### 5/5 — I can’t open the slot

*2024-10-19, version 2.1.29*

I’m trying to open the slot I don’t know why doesn’t open sant you help me?

### 5/5 — Something wrong with the website

*2024-02-23, version 2.0.66*

Why am I having to log out of each game every time I play one hand and then have to log back into it to finish the game?

### 5/5 — Finally slots machine that are not rigged.

*2023-06-09*

I love this game. I live in Houston and love going to Delta Downs but is 2.30 hours away so I can only go once a week and this game is awesome I can contain my gambling addiction (In a good way I’m a responsible gambler) this game is awesome is no rigged like others where you win millions/billions right away and that removes the fun. 

Great job Boyd

**Developer response:** Thanks Erick! More fun lies ahead when you follow the Stardust fan page: https://www.facebook.com/PlayStardust. We post free coin giveaways there!

### 5/5 — Love It

*2021-10-08, version 1.6.7*

I love anything to do with BOYD Gaming.  These games are so much fun.  I like that I can like their page on facebook and get free coins.  I never have any glitches and I always get a good return.
