Modern-day online slots are almost unrecognizable from the slots of yesteryear. If one line and three reels were once enough to keep everyone happy, now it takes more and more features to attract the most demanding slots player.

Now you can find symbols that do much more than form combinations; you can find bonus symbols that launch bonus games and scatter symbols that are like super-upgraded wild symbols. You can also find the most lucrative slots of all — the multiplier slots.

Online multiplier slots feature special multiplying symbols, which complete special winning combinations and then proceed to multiply the winnings for that combo. A multiplier is sort of like a wild symbol in that it can complete a winning combination and multiply its value. Let's say, for instance, you're playing a multiplier slot in which 3 bells in a row pay off 300 coins; if you get 2 bells and a 2X multiplier symbol lined up in a row, that same row will pay you 600 coins.

If you remember your multiplication tables, you can easily figure out how multiplier slots work. If you do the simple math you can see that multiplier slots can yield very sizable payouts, second only to big progressive slots jackpots. The example above mentions a multiplier of 2 times the regular payout, but there are also bigger multipliers — as big as 10X! What these multipliers do is give you added options that non-multiplying slots do not; it's a game within a game within a game.

Because the online slot machine is the most dynamic of all the casino games around, the basic multiplier slots have given way to even better multiplier slots, known as bonus multipliers. Bonus multipliers reward the use of the max bet (the maximum number of coins).

If you hit the jackpot on a bonus multiplier slot machine having played the maximum number of coins, the jackpot itself is multiplied. So, if 3 bells are what you need to win a big payout of, say, 1,000 coins (if you were to play a single coin), if you play with the maximum number of three coins and hit the 3 bells, the bonus multiplier slot will pay you a disproportionately big jackpot of 10,000 coins.

As you can see, the math works out entiely in your favor. For three times the investment, you can win ten times the payout. That is just one example of how bonus multiplier slots multiply your fun and give you more chances than ever to win at slots. And that is why multiplier slots are one of the biggest attraction in the online casino. Try playing multiplier slots, and you could be the next big slots jackpot winner.
