Slot games have been a huge part of the casino industry for many years, and since the inception of the online casino industry in the 1990s, slot games have undergone a number of transformations.
From an increase in the number of reels and paylines, the variety of themes and concepts, to the sheer number of online slots that are available, video slots are the one of the fastest growing parts of an industry that is, in itself, growing at an incredible pace.
The abundance of video slots available in the online casino market is obviously excellent news for fans of this particular game type, but the amount of choice can also be somewhat overwhelming.
That’s why we’re here to bring you information on all new slot game releases and old favourites in the slot world, so you can pick the right slot for you.
When it comes to video slots, there’s a few things to consider.
Paylines
When the first slots were created, they were three-reel machines that offered one payline. Land three matching symbols across the centre of the reels and you win the amount stated in the pay table.
However, these days paylines have evolved almost beyond recognition, and many slots offer 40 plus paylines.
There are two types of payline system with video slots; fixed paylines and variable paylines. Fixed payline slots have a set amount of paylines which never changes. However, with variable paylines, you can select the number of paylines you want in play, with the price per bet increasing the more you select.
If you are a hobby player who isn’t looking to take too much of a risk, then variable payline slots are the choice for you. If you are this type of player, it is advisable to never have more than five paylines in play, because that’s when things can start to get expensive.
Features
A vital part of any video slot is the features on offer. Features usually come in the shape of mini-games which give you the chance to pick up big wins.
The most common features are wild features, which include Expanding Wilds, Shifting Wilds, and Sticky Wilds, and free spins features.
A Free Spins feature gives you a set amount of free spins and often there are increased wilds or multipliers at play during these features as well. If you land a good collection of winning combinations during a free spins feature, it can be very profitable.
A variety of video slots also offer features that fall outside of these categories. These could be pick and click games, bonus wheels, or an exclusive feature that is designed specifically to match the theme of that slot, such as the main feature in the Fairytale Legends slots from NetEnt.
What is RTP?
You’ll often see a RTP% number next to a slot game. RTP is Return to Player and all slots have an RTP calculated to display alongside the game. The RTP is the amount of times a slot game pays out over a number of spins. It is usually calculated over millions of spins and the average RTP for more newer slots of 96% and for older slots, anything under 94 – 95% is considered low.
If a slot has an RTP of 97%, that means for every £100 you stake, you would on average, receive £97 back in winnings. The higher the RTP, the better odds you have of winning, hence why many player search for slot games purely based on the RTP.
There is obviously a lot to consider when picking a slot, including theme, developer, and minimum and maximum bet limits, but paylines and features are a good place to start, as they allow you to pick a slot that matches your playing preferences.
