FIELD GUIDE

A closer look: try another mode with room to pause.

Read the active mode's table

Start by identifying what the number describes. Each cabinet includes a paytable underneath its Spin controls. The values apply to that named mode and this release of the game. Classic has a three-match column; five-reel games list awards for three, four and five matching positions from the left. The same definitions apply on a phone and a desktop browser. Review the relevant page before using another mode.

Recognize paying symbols

Keep the scope of the explanation in view. Cherries, lemons, bells, BAR and sevens appear in the classic set. Five-reel games also contain diamonds and Wilds. The symbol artwork makes the categories recognizable, but the actual payout depends on the mode's table and the path being scored. Read the active cabinet’s rule panel when applying this explanation.

Separate symbol weight from payout

A precise definition makes the screen easier to read. A high displayed multiplier is not the probability of landing that symbol. Symbols are drawn using the weights assigned to the mode, and different symbols can have different chances. The largest award in a paytable can therefore occur much less often than smaller ones. Read the active cabinet’s rule panel when applying this explanation. Review the relevant page before using another mode.

Use the wager per line

The distinction matters when comparing games. Ordinary line multipliers are applied to the line wager. On a 20-line game, a total wager of 100 credits creates a five-credit line wager. A 10× line award then pays 50 credits, before any mode-specific multiplier explicitly shown by the rules. The examples describe virtual-credit play within this release. Keep the current domain in view when checking saved information.

Pay only the best match per line

Keep the scope of the explanation in view. Wild substitutions can make several interpretations of one path possible. The engine compares their credit amounts and awards the highest once. It does not pay both a three-symbol and a longer version of the same match on that one line. Read the active cabinet’s rule panel when applying this explanation. Keep the current domain in view when checking saved information.

Identify Scatter separately

Keep the scope of the explanation in view. Scatter symbols trigger the free-spin, collection or pick feature when their mode requires at least three anywhere on the grid. They do not appear in a normal line paytable and have no direct Scatter-only award in these games. Wild cannot replace them. The examples describe virtual-credit play within this release. The visible interface identifies the feature currently in use.

Distinguish feature multipliers

Use this point when reading a result. Collection values and pick-tile values multiply the triggering total wager rather than a single line wager. Their displays describe that basis explicitly. Wild Slots instead doubles qualifying ordinary line awards, with the paytable showing the values before that doubling. A mode’s own paytable remains the reference for its awards.

Keep the rules accessible

This is part of understanding the current release. You can open and close the table without spending credits or changing the saved result. The numbered payline diagrams sit alongside it. Read these references before comparing amounts from different modes, since matching artwork does not imply matching mathematics. The same definitions apply on a phone and a desktop browser. Additional context is available in the site’s related guides.
