5-Reel Multiline Slots
The object of Silver Bullet is to obtain a winning symbol combination by spinning the reels.
To play the game:
- Choose the amount you wish to bet on each payline, by clicking on the + and - buttons on the right.
- Select the number of paylines you want to bet on by clicking on the Bet One button or the line numbers to the left or right of the reels. When you click on line number 3 for example, you also select lines 1 and 2. Each click on the Bet One button selects one more line. Click Bet Max or line number 9 to select all paylines. Remember that your total bet (the amount you spend on the game round) is line bet multiplied by the number of lines selected. Clicking Bet Max will also spin the reels automatically.
- Click Spin (if you did not press Bet Max) 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. Click the Paytable button to see the paytable, if you wish. Close the paytable by clicking the Paytable button again. If you win on multiple paylines simultaneously, your winnings are added up.
Paylines:
Active paylines are represented by lines that appear over the reels. You can activate paylines and see their shape by progressively clicking the Bet One button.
Please note: You only win if a combination occurs on an active payline.
The Scatter symbol is an exception to that rule. Read more about the Scatter symbol below.
About the winning tables:
The tables show a certain number for every hit amount for every symbol. For example, if you have four symbols in a row starting on the leftmost or rightmost reel (that is four hits), read the number on the line "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 consecutively, starting from the leftmost or rightmost reel, to qualify as hits. In case one payline contains two winning combinations (for example: two barrels counted from the left and three bottles counted from the right), you are paid for both combinations. If you have five symbols in a row, you are only paid once.
Please note: There is a difference between the line bet and
the total bet. The line bet shows how much you're betting on a single payline.
The total bet shows how much you're spending in this game round. The payouts
shown in the paytable are multiplied by the line bet, not by the total bet. If
you
get winning combinations on more than one payline, the winnings for each
payline are added up.
The sheriff badge symbol is a wild symbol - meaning it stands for any other symbol, like a joker in card games. Also, the wild symbol doubles any win in the combination it is in, but not cumulatively (that is, two wild symbols still multiply the win by 2 and not by 4).
Scatter symbol:
The Colt revolver symbol is a scatter symbol - when you get 2 to 5 of these symbols on the screen, you are paid according to the table shown on the winnings table (scatter win is calculated by multiplying the number on the respective row of the scatter paytable with your TOTAL bet, not just the line bet). The symbols have to lie consecutively, starting from the leftmost or rightmost reel. They don't have to follow any payline. Scatter wins are added to payline wins (if you don't have any payline wins, you are only paid the scatter win).
Dollar Ball
This is a lotto-type progressive sidegame where you pick 5 numbers out of 49. Then once you start the main game, five numbers will be drawn randomly. The more numbers match your selection, the more you win. If all five numbers match, you win the Jackpot.
Dollar Ball resides in the top right part of the screen. Click Enable to play it. You will see a set of numbers, from 1 to 49. Click on any five of them to select manually (click again to deselect), or click on Random pick to have it done for you automatically. If you want to change the selected numbers, click on any number to start again. Click Activate to hide the numbers and confirm your selection. If you want to cancel the Dollar Ball game, click Disable.
Your numbers will be shown in a row of squares at the top of the screen. Once you start a round of the main game, the drawn numbers will appear just below them in the circles. If any of the numbers match your selection, the squares will change color and your win amount will appear below. It will be added to your balance along with any winnings from the main game round. You don't have to win the main game round to win the sidegame.
Dollar Ball will be played along with every main game round, with the same numbers, until you either change the numbers or disable the sidegame.
The paytable for Dollar Ball can be found in the main game paytable.
Jackpot
One of the possible wins in this game is the progressive Jackpot. A small percentage of each bet, by every person playing this game in each of many online casinos, is added to a common pot. When a player gets the right result, that player wins the entire Jackpot (in some games you can also win part of it).
After a Jackpot has been won, a new pot is started, with the casinos contributing a base amount of money (called a seed). This ensures that even if you get a Jackpot result in a game right after someone else has won the Jackpot, you will still get a large win.
Each game has its own Jackpot, built up by all the casinos that offer the game.
Please note:
- In some games you have to make a specific bet to be eligible for the Jackpot.
- If you get disconnected in the middle of a game round, your game does not change the value of the Jackpot. The state of the game up to that point is remembered by the casino; the next time you log in you can finish your game round with the same odds and without placing a new bet.
- If a Jackpot is being discontinued (a game is closed and removed from the casino client), you will be notified of it by the casino.

|
Seed (how much money the Jackpot starts out with): |
