When slot machines moved from mechanical machines to electronic machines, the ability to expand on what they have originally happened quickly, and with some great results. By adding another 2 reels to their machines, the manufacturers could offer a greater number of winning combinations as well as offering multiple pay-lines for the first time. This meant that one game of a slot machine didn’t have to be just one game. It could be 2, 3, 5 or more depending on how many pay lines there were on that machine.
This lead to some huge advances, bringing in exciting new games, bigger bonus structures and so much more fun and excitement to the slots. 5-reel slots are defiantly one of the most fun games in a casino today thanks to all of these amazing improvements.
