WHAT ARE GRID SLOTS?

This style of online slot is different to the classic reel slots that most are familiar with. Instead of a reel layout where players create wins across various paylines, Grid Slots are set on a grid, whether that’s 5x5, 7x7 or any other layout. When players hit spin, symbols will fall into place on the grid and clusters of adjacent symbols can form wins and disappear from the grid. Symbols above will then fall into place, possibly creating even more wins.

How to play Grid Slots

For those that have yet to try their hand at a Grid Slot style game – don’t worry – we’ve got you covered. You can take things back to basics to discover what a Grid Slot truly is and how they work. Simply put, though, you’ll hit spin to trigger a new set of symbols to fall onto the grid. But unlike the paylines of many video slots, the goal is to create winning clusters of symbols, both horizontally and vertically on the grid.

The number of symbols needed can vary, of course, but once a win has been triggered, those symbols will disappear, allowing more to fall into place and potentially create new winning combinations. When it comes to bonus features, these can be triggered in a variety of ways, depending on the Grid Slot game you’re playing. Some features might trigger by charging a meter with winning symbols at the side of the screen, whereas some might trigger by clearing the grid entirely such as the Free Spins or Instant Prizes of Rise of Olympus Origins.
