A closer look: follow the path with a local record.
Two symbols with different jobs
One useful detail is explained below. Wild helps form ordinary line matches. Scatter is counted across the grid to trigger particular features. Their artwork, purpose and availability differ by mode. Neither symbol appears in the classic three-reel game, so the home-page paytable has no substitution or Scatter rule. Read the active cabinet’s rule panel when applying this explanation. The visible interface identifies the feature currently in use.
Wild substitutes for paying symbols
This is part of understanding the current release. In five-reel games, Wild can replace cherries, lemons, bells, BAR, sevens or diamonds in a consecutive run from the first reel. The engine also checks a run of Wilds against the Wild row. Only the highest qualifying award is retained for each line. The examples describe virtual-credit play within this release. The visible interface identifies the feature currently in use.
Wild cannot become Scatter
A visible Wild does not count toward the three-Scatter trigger. This is true even if it sits next to two Scatters or appears on a path crossing them. The separate roles prevent an ordinary line substitution from silently changing feature-trigger probabilities. The examples describe virtual-credit play within this release. Review the relevant page before using another mode.
Wild Slots adds a multiplier
This reference concerns the supplied Slots games. Wild Slots doubles a qualifying line award when its matching run contains a Wild. The same extra multiplier does not apply to Video Slots, Bonus Slots or Practice Mode. Check the cabinet name and its rule panel before assuming a doubled amount. Read the active cabinet’s rule panel when applying this explanation.
Respins can preserve Wilds
Consider this rule alongside the active cabinet. Respin Slots has an independent one-in-40 trigger after a paid spin. If triggered, every visible Wild stays locked for one free respin and other cells are redrawn. Keeping the Wilds changes the second grid's distribution, but the second result still needs qualifying lines to pay. The examples describe virtual-credit play within this release. Keep the current domain in view when checking saved information.
Scatter finds a whole-grid trigger
The distinction matters when comparing games. In Bonus Slots, Hold & Collect and Pick Bonus, at least three Scatters anywhere in the paid grid trigger the corresponding feature. A Scatter has a 2% chance in each independently drawn cell in those modes. The count is not restricted to one Scatter per reel. Review one completed result at a time when comparing these details. The visible interface identifies the feature currently in use.
Do not add an unstated Scatter award
This is part of understanding the current release. These games do not pay a direct Scatter-only credit prize. Ordinary line awards are settled first, and then the triggered feature supplies its own subsequent results. Collection symbols receive values after the collection feature begins; those values follow its separate rules. A mode’s own paytable remains the reference for its awards. Additional context is available in the site’s related guides.
Use the result panel to distinguish them
The result explanation names a Wild when it contributes to a paying match and reports when a feature starts. A feature counter or tile choice then shows the action available. This provides a clearer interpretation than judging a bonus solely from the reel artwork. The same definitions apply on a phone and a desktop browser.
