These are followed by fruit symbols, which can include cherries, oranges, watermelons, lemons, and plums. These are still common today, though most games only feature Aces, Kings, Queens, Jacks, and Tens.
The first known symbols to appear on slot machines were playing card suits and numbers. These symbols can significantly increase a player’s chances of winning big money.
While the majority of slots use standard reel symbols, many also have scatters, wilds, sticky or multiplier symbols, and bonus rounds. The symbols used in slot machines vary depending on the machine type.
