Scatter Slot Machine Symbols
Slot machine scatter symbols are both annoying and amazing at the same time.
The great thing about them is, that they generate slot machine wins very often because they don't need to appear on a payline in order to trigger a win. The annoying thing about them is that they often seam to block the paylines when you were "close" to complete a high payout combination.
Most slot machines with scatter symbols have a payout rule that grants a scatter bonus when 2 or more scatter symbols appear anywhere on the game reels.
The scatter bonus prizes are often calculated based on the total slot machine wager.
Example:
2 x Scatter symbols anywhere on the slot machine = 200% of your wager
3 x Scatter symbols anywhere on thes lot machine = 500% of your wager
