Usage area

This kind of symbol is quite common in modern slot machines. It is available in offline slots and models designed for online casinos.

Description

Sticky symbols – pictures that remain on the screen during the next spins.

In other words, these icons "stick" in their cells.

This feature can be a permanent feature of the character, or it can be provided to some pictures in certain situations. Give some examples:

  • In free spins, the Joker can turn into Sticky Wild. If the symbol appears in any position, it stays there until the end of the free spins. 
  • In some bonus rounds, icons from paid combinations "stick", after which the respins begin. If the chain is supplemented with the same symbols, they also remain in place, and repeated spins continue. 
  • Sometimes sticky jokers remain on the playing field but are shifted on the cells in different directions.
  • It is not uncommon for slots in which Wild symbols can be both sticky and expanding. They stretch vertically, filling the entire screen. In this form, they stay until the end of the round. 

Other variations of sticky symbols in slot machines are also possible. Read about them in the reviews at Casinoz.
