Slot game symbols that may surprise you
New slots are being released with new features that are getting more sophisticated and improved, allowing some of you, dear gambling enthusiasts, to improve your gambling experience. Slots are becoming more and more advanced and receive new symbols, the purpose of which is not understood by all players. This article will talk about new types of symbols that you need to know about to understand what is happening on the screen when you press the "spin" button. Let's find out more! We start with Wild symbols as they are one of the most important. Such symbols can replace any other symbol in the slot just like the Joker card. As soon as such symbols land on the playing field, they substitute for any other symbol, with the exception of Scatter and Bonus symbols. There are also special types of Wilds which include Expanding Wilds and Sticky Wilds. Expanding Wilds expand across the reel when they land, helping you create more pay combinations by turning any neighboring symbol next to them into a Wild symbol. They can usually spawn anywhere on the playing field. After landing, they expand up and down, side to side, or even diagonally. Sticky Wilds stick to their positions and usually give you 1 more spin while Stacked Wilds stack on top of each other. As you may have noticed, all of these Wild symbols have one thing in common - they appear randomly, replacing regular symbols to help you achieve better results. There are also Soaring, Random, Floating, Transferring, Walking, Shifting and other types of Wild symbols. They can work in different ways, so just look at the paytable of the slot you are about to spin and you will understand how they work. Now it's time to talk about Scatter symbols. They are unique as their main purpose is to trigger the free spins feature or the Bonus Game every time you get the required number of them on an active payline. Usually, a certain number of Scatters must land in 1 spin to unlock the bonus feature. For example, if you land 3, 4 or 5 Scatters at the same time, you will trigger 5, 10 or 15 free spins respectively. Each slot machine works differently and you will find all the information about Scatters (and other symbols) by clicking on the paytable. By the way, Scatters can also trigger payouts on their own. Naturally, not all slots with these symbols offer such an opportunity, so be sure to check the paytable again so as not to be disappointed later. Bonus symbols were named so because they are used to activate various bonus rounds. They are similar to Scatter symbols because you often need to land at least 3 of them on the reels at the same time before they trigger the bonus round. They should normally land on consecutive reels and only on an active payline. Finally, we have reached the Multiplier symbols. Multipliers do exactly what their name suggests - they multiply your prizes. They can land on the playing field as special symbols with an additional icon indicating the value of their multiplier. Multipliers can also be Wild or appear during the free spins feature triggered by Scatters. Many thanks to the site Gamblefaq for the information provided.Non-Standard Slot Machine Symbols
