How do slot machines work?

Like we mentioned, you don’t need any prior gambling knowledge to play slots machines. And to get started, you don’t need to bet a lot either. That's what makes these games so appealing to novices and experienced gamblers alike.

Classic slots that you would find in your local casino would require you to pull a lever which would activate a series of reels to move on the screen. The idea around online slots remains similar, except now instead of pulling a lever you simply click a button on the screen in front of you. The original games had reels that physically spun, but results in an online slot machine have always been determined by Random Number Generation software. This is true of most land-based machines today too, and RNG’s are used to create fair and unbiased results.

The eye-catching symbols move as the online slot machine reels are spun, and the resulting configurations are checked when they come to rest. What you win in the end will be determined by the number of paylines, and now in more popular video slot games, by the Ways to Win feature. With the more traditional paylines, you get a prize whenever the icons land in pre-specified patterns.

For Ways to Win, the individual symbols that are in the right positions, or are simply adjacent to each other, are multiplied together. That means the more of them that land at a time, the bigger your payout. Your ultimate win is determined by the bet that you place. You get to use the controls to set your coin size, how many coins you are wagering and, in many cases, how many paylines you want to activate.

This is the one main casino game where luck has a lot to do with it. Once you click on the Bet icon, when the reels stop spinning is anybody’s guess. But that is part of the excitement of the game – the unknowing, the suspense, the thrill!

Slot games to play

If that started to whet your appetite a bit for some “slotty” slots action, then look no further, because below are just some of the games that casino fans have been raving about:

  • Avalon II
  • Thunderstruck II
  • Immortal Romance
  • Ladies Nite
  • Tomb Raider™
  • Terminator II
  • Jurassic Park™

There are loads of slots to play, all in different categories:

Reel slots are based on the classic machines of the past, with simpler symbols and fewer special features. An arcade online slot machine will usually involve an extra element of gaming, similar to what might be played in land-based arcades. Video slots are the most immersive, with detailed graphics, storylines and special features that unfold as you play.

Slots tips and hints

  • After you hit the big jackpot, cash out and take your cash – you don’t want to play it all back if your original goal was to come and win.
  • BUT, if you are just looking for a good time, regardless of win/loss status, play slower, keep your bets low and enjoy longer hours of entertainment.
  • Some more advanced games within the video slots collection have a number of bonus feature games included in the game. As you unlock each bonus game, you will be given information on how to take part in the bonus rounds. Use this information to better your chances of winning the bonus.

Separating the slots facts from fiction

  • Fiction: The simpler the game, the better the odds
  • Fact: Video slots, with their flashy bonus games simply add an extra element of fun to your time playing.
  • Fiction: The casino has the power to flip a switch of sorts if too many people are winning to make winning less frequent
  • Fact: Online casino slots are have Random Number Generators (RNG). What this means is that the reels are spun not by a casino staffer in the virtual background stopping it where they would want it to stop. It is an automated system that is based purely on luck. So there is no need to worry about not having the same chances of winning if there have been multiple winners before you on a certain machine. Your chances are exactly the same as theirs were.
