Play Online Slots Like a Pro – The Basics Hello roomies, we hope you are having a lovely time with us at BingoHall. Today we wanted to continue our initiative from last week and give you some more tips on how to play online slots. We know that most of our games seem pretty self-explanatory and are very simple to play, but the principles behind how they work are not so easily noticeable. Because of this, some players might go into the game with the wrong expectations, and that could ruin anyone’s fun.

Luckily for you, you’ve got us to worry about you all the time. We like to think that all of us here at BingoHall, staff and players alike, are a family, and you always help out your family, at least when you can. But when it comes to teaching you how to play online slots, all we can say is: YES WE CAN!


Understanding paylines and payouts Paylines: You must have surely noticed that many of our slot games provide you with lots and lots of paylines. Our selection of modern slot games can let you choose to play with ANY number of lines, between 1 and 20, or even 25 in some cases. But wait! You don’t know what paylines actually are? That’s not a problem! As you start up a new game, you are going to have to select the number of paylines to play with. As you increase the number, you will notice that lines keep popping up across the reels. Some are straight while some almost zigzag across the board. The more you increase the number, the more lines will appear. The meaning of these lines is extremely important, as they will determine if a winning combination will count or not. You will only get paid if you get a winning combo across an activated payline.

Maximum Paylines on Mad Orchestra Online Slots game


If you play online slots with only 5 paylines and a winning combination will be prompted across a different pattern, you won’t get paid. Thus, paylines increase your chances to win more and more cash. However, they also require a vote of confidence and an investment from you. For example, if you choose to bet $1, that sum will multiply for each payline you activate. So if you have a $1 bet and 5 paylines activated, each spin will cost you $5. If you have 8 paylines, you’ll pay $8, etc. Payout: The payout is the term we use for the money you receive when you strike a winning combination. Each combo can yield a specific amount of money. For example, if you get the harp symbol 5 times across a payline in the Mad Orchestra game, you will receive 200 units. But if you get the violinist 5 times, you get 1000 units. The term also refers to how much of the investment returns to the players over an extended period of time. Those who play online slots are slightly more fortunate than the fans of land-based machines, as the online game’s overall payout is about 3% higher. Understanding progressive jackpots Progressive jackpots can get a little bit confusing. That’s because games that have it give the player the ability to win a lot more money, but only if they respect the rules. In the simplest of terms, a game with a progressive jackpot will take a part of all the money spent on losing spins and add them to a massive jackpot. This jackpot can actually reach millions of dollars. But to be able to win the progressive jackpot, the player has to bet the maximum denomination available for that game.


Thus, if you can bet $0.25, $0.50, $1 or $2, you have to go for $2 if you want to claim the progressive jackpot as you play online slots. What is the bonus round?

Forest Treasure Online Slots Game Bonus Round Just about every modern online slots game we have comes with a bonus symbol. Getting this symbol on 3 reels will take you to a special bonus round. Now, there are two very specific categories for bonus rounds as well. For example, the Tales of Egypt bonus round designates a second wild symbol and grants you free spins. That means that you will get quite a few free spins in which you can hit two wild symbols. That dramatically increases your chances to strike a winning combo.


On the other hand, there are games like Forest Treasure or Sugar Rush that have bonus rounds that are nothing like the game of slots. When you unlock the bonus round in Forest Treasure you will be taken on a magical journey, at the end of which you have to find the pot of gold. It is a 4-step journey and every choice you make during each step determines how much you will win at the end. Meanwhile, Sugar Rush will ask you to build a delicious tower, made of sweets. How you build it will determine the amount you can win. The auto play function As you play online slots on BingoHall, you will notice that many of our games come with an auto play function. To enable it you have to select your bet, the number of paylines you want and the number of automated spins you want the game to make. Then you just have to hit “Start”, sit back and enjoy some snacks or have your coffee without having to worry about clicking on “Spin” all the time. This is THE most comfortable way to play online slots. Knowledge is power The best online slots players know that knowledge is power. If you know the game, you will know what to do in each situation. Slots are indeed games of pure chance, but it is always good to learn more about the things we like. May the force be with you as you play online slots and don’t forget to visit BingoHall’s blog for more information!
