How to Play Slots: The Basics
Online Slot Machines are games of chance, and consist of symbols displayed on reels. The objective is to spin the reels so the symbols form a winning combination on a payline. The payout is dependent on the winning combination formed and vary according to the online slot and the bet size.
To start spinning the reels you can either:
- Hit the "Max Bet" button - this will automatically select all paylines and the maximum number of coins per lines.
- Select the number of paylines and the coins per line to determine your total bet amount and press "spin".
Always select your preferred coin size (the amount you want to bet per payline) before playing, as this will give you greater flexibility to manage your budget. Some slot machines can have in excess of 50 paylines (up to 100. See the Cashapillar slot machine) so the bet size can be considerable without due consideration of the bet amount per line.
If you have a winning combination lined up on an enabled payline then the win will be highlighted on the reels and the amount displayed in the bottom right-hand corner (Check out the Payout Table for the particular Online Slot Machine you are playing). Additionally, some spins may result in the triggering of bonus features that could reward you:
- Free spins (and multiplier)
- An immediate payout (as with scatters)
- A bonus game
Once the above has been concluded then that particular spin is over and all coin payouts will be credited to your account. If you did not have a combination that triggers a bonus feature or a win to activate a gamble option, then that particular game is over. You can start a new game by repeating the same bet by clicking "spin", changing the bet amount or pressing "max bet".
How to Play Slots: playing different types of slot machines
From our selection of over 250 online slots, you can play a number of different machines ranging from the classic 3 reels, big jackpot progressive slots, to the complex 5 reel video slots with bonus games. Here are our recommendations on how to play slots the different types:
3 Reel Slots: All the slot action generally happens only on the reels. The limited number of symbols and reels mean the bigger wins may take some time to combine, so patience is needed.
Featured 3 Reel Slot: Couch Potato
 |
Timeless slot engine with lots of winning symbols and a great jackpot. |
5 Reel Slots: These games vary from slot to slot but big winnings can be had from the reels, bonus games and other slot features, so they can seem a lot busier than 3 Reel Slots. These games can unlock enormous jackpots and many have immersive and entertaining themes and, as such, they are some of our online casino's most popular games.
Featured 5 Reel Slot: Hitman
|
|
Sleek, smooth and unbelievably generous, with a plot that means players come back to it time and time again. |
Progressive Slots: These can take both 3 and 5 Reel form, but whereas in other slots the biggest payouts are fixed and come from the reels and bonus features, the main focus of progressives are their limitless jackpots. That's not to say they're not generous on the reels, but remember these games come with the thrill of never knowing when their monumental jackpots will be won.

How to Play Slots: playing slot features
Each online slot machine has its own exciting symbols and many of our online slots include extra coin-winning slot features that underpin wins from the reels. These include:
- Bonus Slots – land the correct combination of Bonus symbols on the reels, and this will launch a off-screen bonus round that could mean big coin payouts.
- Free Spins Feature – hit the Free Spins winning combination, and you will be awarded a number of Free Spins. The number of Free Spins and the Win Multiplier awarded varies with each online slot. Note: some Free Spins can be re-triggered during the Free Spins bonus!
- Wild symbols – an extra symbol on the reels that makes wins more frequent and more rewarding by substituting itself for other symbols to complete a winning combination!
- Scatter symbols - a number of scatter symbols will result in a payout, even if they do not line up alonge a payline.
All our Online Slot Machines have an AutoPlay feature, so you can set the spins rolling, sit back and watch your winnings come in! Join 32Red online casino today and take advantage of our latest welcome bonus.
