A classic slot is one of the most simple forms of gambling. You don’t have to know a lot about the machine. It has three reels, one win line and a button to make the reels spin. The only thing you have to do is press the button and wait until you hit a winning combination. In essence you can say that there’s not a lot of interaction between the player and the machine.

What we see a lot nowadays, at online and land based casino’s, is the multi line slot. In essence it has the same quality as the classic slot machine: not a lot of interaction. The multi line slot is only a bit more complicated: it has bonus games and the win lines aren’t that clear. But still, you only have to press the start button and wait until a winning combi hits one of the win lines.

The UK style online fruit machine is a game with a lot of interaction. These machines suggest that the gambler can influence the results (which isn’t the case of course). Let’s make it clear with the UK fruit machine game options: nudges and the hold feature. Check the good online guide virtualfruitmachines.co.uk for those games.

Nudges: At an UK fruit machine you can win nudges. Nudges are turns of one reel some steps down. If you have one nudge you can turn one reel, one step down. If you have two nudges you can turn one reel, two steps down etc. So if you use the nudges at the right time (suggestion of influence), you can hit a winning combination.

Hold feature: UK fruit machines give the possibility to hold some reels (suggestion of influence). So when you hit for example two sevens and you need the third seven, then you can hold the two sevens and spin one more reel with the hope to hit the third seven.

If you want to play free UK online fruit machines then it’s best to select a Microgaming online casino. Because Microgaming casino’s often have some UK fruit machines in their game assortment. Check out the Win Spinner for example. Good luck!
