What is a payline?

A payline is a line connecting a single symbol from each reel. Fat Cat features 20 paylines, indicated by the numbered coloured boxes to the left and right of the reels. By positioning the mouse cursor over a numbered box, the game will display the associated payline. In order to win, you must have a winning combination on a payline and you must have placed a bet on that payline. If you have winning combinations on multiple paylines, you will be paid for each according to the paytable. If you have multiple winning combinations on a single payline, only the combination with the highest payout is awarded.

What is a winning combination?

A winning combination consists of consecutive, identical symbols on a payline, starting from the left-most reel, as summarised in the game's paytable. To view the paytable, simply click the button near the bottom-left of the game screen. Each symbol in the paytable shows the number of consecutive symbols required and their respective payouts. For example, three consecutive Hound symbols will pay £75 for every £1 wagered on a payline, while 5 consecutive Hounds will pay £750 for the same wager.

There are also two special symbols which provide even more ways to win.

Scattered Dollar Sign: Unlike other symbols, this symbol is not required to be on a payline to win. As long as the requisite number of Scattered Dollar Signs appear anywhere on screen, you win! The amount won for Scattered Dollar Signs is multiplied by the Total Bet! For example, if the Scattered Dollar Sign comes to rest on three reels, and your Total Bet was £10, you would win £50.
