Unlike
traditional slot machines
that depict a parallel set
of rotating reels, Video Slot
machines often display a grid
of symbols arranged in rows
and columns. During a spin,
the symbols appear to rotate
within each cell or column
and then are randomly distributed
throughout the cells when
the spinning stops.
We speak of Video Slot machines
as having, say, 5 "reels",
even though you may not be
able to see them. That's because
these machines still use a
fair spin of 5 unweighted,
rotating reels to randomly
distribute symbols among the
cells. This means there is
a distinct reel behind each
column in the grid, and where
it stops determines which
symbols appear in the cells
of that column.
Video Slots typically offer
more pay lines than regular
slots, and the lines may angle
up and down through the cells
as they move across the grid.
Because their interfaces
are electronic rather than
mechanical, Video Slots can
also offer interesting side
bets, bonus rounds and amazing
graphics that provide much
more fun and excitement.
To provide maximum enjoyment,
each Video Slot machine is
configured differently in
terms of lines, payouts and
betting options. Some have
progressive jackpots, others
offer more flexibility in
terms of number of lines or
control over how many credits
are bet on each line. We provide
the specific configuration
for each machine in the Machine
Details section.
