Under the bonus: how a spin is settled
Each spin's result is drawn by random number software the instant you press the button. The reels that follow are animation. Because each draw stands alone, there is no pattern to find: a bonus that has not landed for a long while is not any closer, and a bonus that just landed can land again on the next spin. What you can study is the rulebook. The paytable tells you what each symbol pays, what starts the feature and what the feature can do. At betworld96, reading it is the first step in every guide we write.
Bonus feature families at a glance
Most pokies pay modest amounts in the base game and save the bigger moments for a feature. These are the families you will meet in the betworld96 lobby, with one game for each that is not covered in our other guides.
| Feature family | What happens | See it in |
|---|---|---|
| Hold and Win respins | Prize symbols lock in place and the rest of the board respins | Queen of the Sun (Booongo): sticky wild free spins, mystery symbols and a 5,000x Grand jackpot |
| Free spins with multipliers | A set of spins where wins are multiplied or wilds behave differently | Dragon Emperor (Aristocrat): 243 ways with a free spins feature, RTP 95.19% |
| Tumbling grids | Winning symbols vanish and new ones fall in, often with multipliers | Lucky Penny (3 Oaks): pays anywhere on 6×5, penny multipliers up to x1,000 that combine |
| Collect features | A collector symbol gathers the values shown on other symbols | Fish Tales: Double Catch (Booming Games): Cash Collection and Big Net, 10,000x top win |
| Megaways | Reel heights change each spin, so the number of ways does too | Great Rhino Megaways (Pragmatic Play): over 200,000 ways, 20,000x top win |
| Classic line games | Few lines and a small, simple feature | Burning Classics (Booming Games): up to 20 lines, free spins and an optional gamble |
| Fishing games | You shoot moving targets instead of spinning reels | Fishing Treasure (FastSpin): 3 levels, dual cannons, boss fish up to x1,688 |
The online pokies guide goes through every family in depth with several games each and a comparison table.
Three numbers worth knowing before you choose
RTP is the percentage of all money staked that a game is built to pay back across a huge number of spins. Lucky Penny's figure is not published, so you would check its information panel; Great Rhino Megaways lists 96.50%. RTP describes the game across all players over the long run, not your next hour.
Volatility tells you where the return tends to come from. On a high volatility pokie, much of it sits in the bonus feature, which can take many spins to arrive. On a low or medium volatility pokie, more of it comes back through regular base-game wins. Feature-heavy games are usually the high volatility ones.
Top win is the largest amount one round can pay, as a multiple of your stake. Great Rhino Megaways lists 20,000x. It is a ceiling that very few rounds come near, not a typical result.
Jackpot prizes are not the top win
Many Hold and Win games show a row of fixed jackpots, often called Mini, Minor, Major and Grand. Each one is a set prize, as a multiple of your bet, that you can land inside the respin round. Queen of the Sun's Grand is 5,000x your bet. The game's top win is a separate figure: the most a whole round can pay once every prize and line win is added together. When you compare games, compare top win with top win and jackpot with jackpot.
Watch the feature for free first
Log in to betworld96 and open any pokie in demo mode, and you can keep spinning on practice credits until the feature lands. That one round tells you more than any description: what started it, how long it lasted and what it paid against the stake. Demo uses the same game rules as real money; only the credits are different. The free pokies guide shows how to start.
Studios grouped by the features they build
When you find a feature you enjoy, the studio that made it usually has more games built the same way. Of the 41 studios in the betworld96 lobby, these 11 have their own guide here:
- Respins and jackpot boards: Booongo (BNG), 3 Oaks and Booming Games.
- Multiplier grids and big ways counts: Pragmatic Play, JILI, AdvantPlay and FastSpin.
- Land-based classics with free games: Aristocrat and IGT.
- Story-driven bonus rounds: Betsoft.
- Quick-spin line games and fishing: VPower.
The studios page compares all 11 side by side.
Your first betworld96 session in five steps
- Pick a feature family. Skim the online pokies guide and choose the kind of bonus you would enjoy watching: respins, free spins, tumbles or collects.
- Watch it in demo. Open one game from that family with practice credits and play until the feature lands. Note roughly how many spins it took.
- Set your budget and stake. Choose a stake that gives you several times that many spins, using the arithmetic in the real money guide.
- Deposit and play. AU$10 or more, then keep the stake where you set it.
- Cash out. Once you are AU$30 or more ahead, a withdrawal to PayID, Skrill, Neteller or Payz lands within 5 minutes.
Money in and money out
You can start with AU$10. When it is time to collect, betworld96 pays winnings of AU$30 or more by PayID, Skrill, Neteller or Payz within 5 minutes, with no fee. Bitcoin, Visa/Mastercard, eZeeWallet, Apple Pay and Google Pay take deposits only, so pair one of them with a payout method before you play. Bitcoin top-ups take 10 to 30 minutes and carry the network fee; the rest land instantly.
For the detail, read the banking guide, the e-wallet guide or withdrawal times. Current offers, such as the 20% Sunday bonus, are listed on the promotions page.
Pokies on your phone
betworld96 runs in your mobile browser, so the full lobby, search and provider filter are there without an app. Bonus rounds with tall boards are easier to follow with the phone turned sideways, while 6×5 tumbling grids sit comfortably in portrait. To find a game fast, type its full name into the search box, or pick the studio in the provider filter to see everything that maker supplies.
Set your limit before the feature hunt
Feature-led pokies can tempt you to keep going "until the bonus lands". Decide your spend and your stopping time before you start, and keep to both whether the feature appears or not. If you would like a break, a deposit limit or someone to talk to, the responsible gambling page lists the options and free support.
