A video slot consists of three or five reels, animations and sounds, and various winning symbols such as wilds and scatters.

Features

Certain elements set video slots apart from other casino games.

• Themes

Video slots are based on a theme which provides some entertainment. The vast majority of slots are based on a film. These slots contain images of the film characters as well as sounds and animations inspired by the film. Popular video slots include video Thunderstruck and The Dark Knight Rises.

Progressive slots

Progressive video slots are linked to a jackpot network. Each time players spin a progressive slot, a portion of the betting stake is designated to an increasing jackpot amount.

• Paylines

All slot machines contain paylines. The more paylines a game contains, the more the player is allowed to bet. Unlike the traditional slot machines, online slots have multiple reels, thus multiple paylines. Consequently the player has more chances of winning. The new variation of the payline slot is the "ways-to-win" slot. Such slots do not contain paylines, but instead offer the player 243 opportunities to win a payout.

• Winning features

The main features that enable wins are wild symbols, scatters, multipliers, free spins. The Wild symbol is an icon based on the slot's theme. Wild symbols increase players' chances of forming winning combinations. Scatter symbols are also denoted by an image of the theme, and tend to substitute for the Wild. Scatters are triggered when two or three land on the reels and can be replaced by the wild symbol. Multipliers have a specific value and enhance the player's winnings. Winnings can be multiplied 2 times, 5 times, or 25 times, depending on the value of the multiplier. Multipliers may be applied to the amount of money earned, or to the number of free spins earned. Multipliers are often part of a bonus round and also considerably to winnings there. Free Spins form part of the game's bonus round in which the player receives a certain number of free spins. This feature is useful because the player need not wager to receive the spins. Free spins rounds are typically triggered by scatter symbols.
