Of course. Here is a detailed breakdown of the **”Bonus Slot”** feature commonly found in Lottomatica’s online slot games, along with important context.
### What is a “Bonus Slot” (Feature Round)?
In the context of Lottomatica’s slots (and online slots in general), a **”Bonus Slot”** is not a single game, but a special feature or round *within* a slot game. It’s triggered by landing specific symbols (usually Scatter symbols) on the reels.
The goal of this feature is to offer players a different, often more interactive or rewarding gameplay experience separate from the base game.

### Common Types of Bonus Slot Features in Lottomatica Games:
Lottomatica offers games from many top providers (NetEnt, Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, etc.), so the features vary. Here are the most common types:
1. **Free Spins:** The most common bonus. You are awarded a set number of free spins. Often, special features like multipliers, expanding wilds, or sticky symbols are active during this round.
2. **Pick-and-Click Games:** A new screen appears with a selection of items (chests, symbols, cards). You click to reveal instant cash prizes, multipliers, or the number of free spins you’ve won.
3. **Wheel of Fortune (Bonus Wheel):** You spin a wheel divided into segments containing different prizes (cash, free spins, multipliers, or entry to another bonus round).
4. **Interactive Bonus Games:** These are mini-games related to the slot’s theme. For example:
* In a heist-themed slot, you might choose doors to open for prizes.
* In an adventure slot, you might navigate a map to find treasures.
5. **”Bonus Buy” Feature:** In many modern slots, Lottomatica offers the option to **purchase direct entry** into the bonus round for a multiple of your bet (e.g., 100x the bet). This is clearly labeled and subject to regulations.
