Payline
In slots, where sign from each reel must be in a line. Slots can have more than 15 reels but usually they have only one.
A "payline" refers to a specific line or pattern on a slot machine or video slot game that determines the winning combinations of symbols. When players spin the reels, if the symbols align along an active payline, they can win a payout based on the game's rules and the specific symbols that have landed on that line. Paylines can take various forms, including straight lines, zigzags, or more complex shapes, and the number of active paylines can vary from one game to another. Players often have the option to choose how many paylines to activate, which can affect their potential winnings and the cost of each spin.
