How to choose a slot game

A growing number of people want to play online slot games.

Unfortunately, many of them don’t know how and where to start. If
you are one of them - don’t worry. This article will cover this topic
from the very beginning. It will give you essential advice on choosing
the best slot game and making an educated decision. Plus, you will
learn what scatter and wild symbols are.

WHAT IS RTP?
One of the best ways to choose a slot game is through RTP. What
does this RTP mean? RTP or Return to Player is an important term
used to describe the percentage of money the slot machine will pay
back to its players over the long period of time. For instance, if the
RTP of a slot machine is 85%, that would mean that for every 100$,
the machine will pay back 85$ to its players. And that will happen, as
we already said – over the long period of time. In the short term we
can experience a lot of different outcomes. Almost everything is
possible. The other side of RTP is House Advantage. This is a term
which describes the percentage of money the machine will keep for
itself. So if RTP is 85%, a house advantage will be 15%.

Even though RTP is something that primarly works over the long
period of time, it can be a good guide when choosing a slot game. It’s
always a good decision to choose a game with higher RTP when you
want to reduce a risk or prolong the game. If you decide to choose a
slot game based on its RTP, here’s a detailed list (link) that will help
you make that decision. Mega Joker, Jackpot 6000 or 1429
Uncharted Seas are some of the games with the highest RTP on this
list in 2019.

SCATTER SYMBOLS
The next thing you need to understand is a Scatter Symbol. Players
tend to agree that it is one of their favourite features in online slot
games. In order to be effective, a Scatter Symbol can appear
anywhere on the reels. As a result, it gives us bonuses, free spins and
mini-games. Every slot game usually has its own unique graphic for
this type of symbol. Scatter Symbol can be found in almost every 5-
reel slot machine. Unfortunately, this is not the case for every 3-reel
slot machines.

WILD SYMBOL
A wild symbol is a symbol whose function is to transform itself into
whatever is needed in order to make payouts. Imagine a situation in
which you got apple-banana-apple-apple-apple. This looks like a loss,
right? In some situation this wouldn’t be the case. If this “banana”
has a function of a wild symbol, that means that it can be
transformed into whichever element we need in order to win the
money. In this particular case, the banana will count as an apple and
we will take the money. Every game has its own specific wild symbol:
it can be a lion, apple, god or something else. There are thousands of
slot games and it totally depends on a specific theme of a game.
If you want to play a real game and invest some real money, you
need to be careful. Nowadays, a lot of companies are not licensed
and regulated. This practically means that, if you invested your
money and made gains, you probably wouldn’t be able to withdraw
the profits. We made this list of licensed websites (link) for people
who are new in this field and are not sure which website to choose.
