Basic knowledge!
Knowing the features of a “Wild Symbol” belongs to the absolute basic knowledge when you play slot machines online.

(It can also be good to keep an eye on this feature if you intend to try your luck at the classic casino games or if you intend to play poker.)

No matter what kind of slots you choose to play, you’ll most likely find a wild symbol in the game. A Wild Symbol is the same as a Joker in a deck of cards. The Wild Symbol replaces other symbols to make winning combos.

Let us clarify with an example.

Say you need three “Cherry symbols” in a row to win $ 500. Then you might as well get two cherry symbols + 1 Wild Symbol, because the Wild replaces all Cherry symbols.

The only symbols that usually can not be combined with Wilds when you play the slots online is known as scatters. There is also a type of Wilds replacing symbols over more lines. These are called stacked Wild.

Free Spins
“Free Spin” basically means you get to play the slots for free: thus you’ll be able to spin the wheels one or more times not needing to place any bets with your own money.

Scatter
A Scatter is a symbol that might pop up anywhere on the slot lines and when triggered it usually “scatters” all over the board – like a Wild Symbol on steroids.

Multiplier
When the multiplier is activated it basically means you’ll “multiply” all your winnings. Usually you’ll get your payouts multiplied between 2-6 times in each spinn.
