1Reels and the middle line
Classic Slots has 3 reels, each showing 3 positions. Between the symbols are blank spaces: a blank pays nothing, just like an old-school machine.
Only the middle row pays, like an old single-line slot. The top and bottom rows show the neighbouring spaces on each reel, but they don’t pay. Your whole bet goes on the middle line.
2What pays
- Three of a kind: three matching symbols on the middle line. 777 pays the most, then BAR, the bell, and the fruits.
- Any 7 / BAR: the three middle spaces are all 7s or BARs, but not all the same — still pays.
- Cherries: a cherry on the left of the middle line pays; two cherries on the first two reels pay more. Cherries count from the left, so you don’t need three.
Every paying combination is worth more than your bet, so on this machine any win really is a win. There are no wilds and no free spins. Every spin is exactly what you see.
When the first two reels have already stopped on a 7 or a BAR in the middle, the third reel slows down. That’s decided by the two reels that have already stopped, and it’s just as slow whether it ends up winning or not; the symbols sliding past are the real neighbouring spaces on that reel.
3Paytable
This table shows wins as a multiple of your bet. For example, with a bet of 100, 777 on the middle line pays 100 × 500.
| Combination | One line |
|---|---|
 Seven | 500×50,000 |
 BAR | 96×9,600 |
 Bell | 38×3,800 |
 Plum | 24×2,400 |
 Orange | 17×1,700 |
 Lemon | 13×1,300 |
 Cherry | 11×1,100 |
| Any 7 / BAR | 16×1,600 |
| Cherry ×2 | 5×500 |
| Cherry ×1 | 2×200 |
Multiples of the total bet; the small number is the payout for a 100-coin bet.
4The lever
Click the lever on the right, or drag it all the way down and let go. It also moves when you press “Spin” or the space bar. The lever and the Spin button do exactly the same thing.
5The numbers
- Each reel has 29 positions, so there are only 24,389 possible stops. The return to player is therefore an exact figure: 96.65%, not a simulation.
- Three 7s turn up about once every 24,400 spins.
- Low volatility: small wins are frequent and big swings are rare.
The return to player is a long-run average over a very large number of spins. It doesn’t mean you’ll get that share back over any one session.
