The object of slot machine games is to obtain a winning symbol combination by spinning the reels. The better your symbol combination, the bigger the payout.

To play the game:

• Insert coins by clicking on chips right of the machine. Each click increases your credit.
  

• Select the lines you want to bet on by clicking on the arrowheads left of the reels. To unselect a line, click the arrowhead again. Click 5 Lines to select all five paylines.
  

• Choose the value of the coins you wish to wager each round, by clicking on a coin left of the machine. Available options are: ¢2, ¢5, or ¢10.
  

• Click Bet One or Bet Max to select the number of coins you wish to wager. Each click on the Bet One button increases your bet by the value of the coin you selected. Pressing Bet Max will increase your bet to the maximum amount possible – that is three coins – and spin the reels automatically. Remember that the total bet (that is, the sum exracted from your credit) is line bet x number of lines selected.
  

• Click Spin (if you did not press Bet Max), or the arm to spin the reels.
  

• If the reels show a winning combination after they stop (along a payline you bet on), you win according to the winning table (see the top panel of the machine). If you win on multiple paylines simultaneously, your winnings are added up.

  About the winning tables:

  The tables show a certain number for every hit amount for every symbol. If you have four symbols in a row starting on the leftmost reel (that is three hits), read the number on the line “Four” or “XXXX” and in the column under that symbol. Multiply your line bet by that number and you get the winning amount. If you have winning combinations on multiple lines, add them all up to get the winning amount. The symbols have to lie consequtively, starting from the leftmost reel, to qualify as hits.
