What to check in a paytable before playing: symbols, lines, bonuses, RTP.
The paytable is a slot's passport: it lists symbol values, the number of lines or ways to win, bonus rules, special symbols and usually the RTP itself. Before playing, check how the bonus triggers, whether there are multipliers and what the max win is — this sets realistic expectations. A slot with high-value bonus symbols and multipliers is usually more volatile. The paytable opens from the game menu in one click.
