Here Online Slots Fan runs through the types of online slot games and provides information on individual slots. Stay informed, win more and have more fun with our guide to online slot games.

Types of Online Slot Games

Broadly speaking, online slot games fit into one of two main categories: either 3 reel of 5 reel machines (we’ve never seen any other number of reeled online slot games as of yet). Reels are cylinders that contain the particular online slot’s symbols. They spin independently and on stopping will display symbols that will determine whether player has won or not.

Slots can further be categorised by paylines. A payline is a metaphysical line that runs across all the reels of a slot machine and connects symbols together should they be identical. They can vary greatly and the number is normally reflective on the number of reels the online slot has. A 3 reel machine, for example, normally has just one payline, whereas 5 reel machines can have anything between 5 and 100 (see Cashapillar).

There are a group of online slots that specialise in huge jackpot wins. These games are known as progressive slots, and their huge jackpots can change lives. Available to play in both 3 and 5 reel formats, these are games all online slot players should play and keep going back to - nothing beats that thrill of never knowing when you could become a millionaire!
