Online Slots Guide
Online slots constitute more than half the casino games on the Internet. They also offer the most variety. Online slots can be classified broadly into three groups. These are classic or three reel slots, video or five-reel slots and progressive jackpot slots. The progressive jackpot slots are the most exciting because the jackpot amount keeps on increasing and when hit often pays out in millions of dollars. The online slots feature a variety of popular themes like rich lifestyle, ocean adventure and ancient civilizations. The symbols on the reels, the visual and audio effects and the background graphics all enhance the theme to provide a consolidated experience.
When players access the game the slot layout appears on the monitor. The player's balance is also depicted usually at the bottom of the screen. The player's bet consists of three choices. Most of the slots are multi line slots and players have to choose the number of lines they want to play. This is done by clicking the number next to the reels of the highest line they want to play. Then they have to select the coin denomination. This is done by clicking on the '+' and '-' buttons next to the coin denomination. The third choice consists of selecting the number of coins wagered. The player is required to click the 'Bet' button a number of times corresponding to the number of coins he wants to wager. In progressive jackpot games, in order to be eligible for the jackpot the player has to wager the maximum number of coins of the highest denomination on the maximum number of lines. This can be achieved by clicking the 'Bet Max' button. The player's wager is the product of the number of lines, the coin denomination and the number of coins. This amount is deducted from the player's balance.
After placing the bets the player clicks the 'Spin' button to set the reels in motion. Once the reels stop the computer checks each active payline with the payout table and makes the payout for all lines in which the player has won. The payouts are multiplied by the line bet. There are some wins known as scatter wins. In these wins the designated symbols need not be in an active payline but anywhere on the reels. The payouts for scatter wins are multiplied by the total bet. Some combinations trigger bonus games that give players additional opportunities of winning. The player's balance gets credited by the amount he has won. The player can then play the same wager by clicking the rebet button, or place a new bet using the process described earlier or exit from the game.
