Start with the exact game title, not how long the last player lost or whether the machine feels due. Some games keep bonus progress or jackpot meters between players. The game's rules tell you what that progress means.
Check the complete title, including any subtitle. Similar-looking sister games can work differently. Open the matching guide before applying a rule from another machine.
Look for relevant meters, collections or bonus progress on the game screen, upper display or shared jackpot sign. Read the help screen when the meaning is unclear. A decorative collection or large jackpot amount is not proof of a qualifying play.
Check which denomination and bet the displayed progress belongs to. Do not assume the same reading or qualifying rule applies across every setting.
For a supported machine, take a clear photo with your phone. Run the Slots uses AI to give PLAY / DON'T PLAY, then tells you which number or condition to check. Confirm the title and reading on the actual machine before relying on the result. If the photo is unclear or the game is not a match, take another photo or consult the correct guide.
