Slot symbols explained
Every slot mixes ordinary paying symbols with special ones that change how it pays. The paytable lists both. This page explains the special symbols and links to the slots that use each.

Short answer
Which slot symbols matter most?
Wilds and scatters. A wild completes wins by standing in for other symbols, and a scatter usually triggers the free spins. Premium symbols, typically the themed pictures, pay several times more than the low card ranks from 10 to A.

Payment ticks come from each casino's live payment list; a dash means it is not listed, not that it is missing.
FAQ
What is the highest paying symbol on a slot?
It varies by game; the paytable lists every symbol's value as a multiple of the stake. Wilds sometimes pay the most when they form their own line.
Can a wild replace a scatter?
Usually not. On most slots wilds substitute only for paying symbols. Book of Dead is an exception, because its book is both wild and scatter.
