If you are new to
slots online, we'd like to give you a proper introduction this popular form of casino games.
Single Line Slots - These are the classic form of slots, three reels and one pay-line. They got their start in the early 1900's when they were set up in gambling halls, casinos and even grocery stores as a simple form of entertainment for the ladies who had accompanied their husbands. The payoffs weren’t much, gum, small candies, and later nickels.
Bonus Slots - Bonus Slots came about long after Single Line Slots. Just like the name implies, Bonus Slots offer one or more bonus rounds in addition to the regular slot game. The triggers for the bonus round will vary from game to game, but the idea remains the same, when you trigger the bonus, you're taken to a secondary game to play out the round by choosing from several objects, these will reveal a prize, or in some cases, nothing.
Feature Slots - Feature slots come with components that increase the challenge in a standard slots game, such as Wilds, Scatters, Multipliers or Bonus Rounds.
Multi Line Slots - Multi Line Slots have several pay-lines, and in many cases, more than the standard three reels.
Progressive Slots - These have the biggest payouts of any online slots, as they offer mega-jackpots. Progressive Slots are tied to any and all the online casinos that use the same casino software. When one jackpot is hit at any one casino, the game will reset at all of the participating casinos.
