What are Gaia Slots?
Gaia Slots is just one of the games available to members who frequent Gold Mountain located at Isle De Gambino. The basic premise is the same as a normal slot machine: Pull the lever and hope for three of a kind. The more rare the combination, the more you can win.
Slots can be played as a single player game or a multiplayer game with as many as five other players. If you chose to play a multiplayer game, you can exchange real-time messages with your fellow slot-players.
How do you play Slots?
First of, you’ll need to buy some game tokens from Gold Mountain. The exchange rate is one token per Gaia gold. When you chose to play, you’ll be asked if you would like to play alone or join a multiplayer game.
If you pick single player, you’ll be taken to the slots screen right away. If you chose multiplayer, you’ll be shown a list of game rooms available. You can also create your own game room and have as many as five other players join in.
The screen for slots is broken down like this:
- Player’s name. Your name will appear here
- The number of tickets you’ve won. Every time you hit Cash Tickets?your current winnings will be converted to tickets.
- Tokens — the number of tokens you’ve got left.
- Current Winnings — Winnings are a type of intermediate currency. You can turn winnings into tickets or you can use them as if they were tokens to keep playing slots.
- Values Table - This table shows you how many winnings you can earn by matching three items of a kind. The X1, X2 and X3 show you much you can earn if you play more than one token at a time. The more tokens you play, the greater the risk, but greater the potential rewards. Partial payouts are made if you match two of a kind, but only if they’re adjacent to each other.
- Slot display — This is where you see the results of your spin.
The buttons are pretty much self-explanatory. You can use your mouse to tug on the handle of the slot machine instead of clicking on the Spin button
Can I use Gaia gold to play Slots?

- Can be used in lieu of tokens by selecting Play Winnings or
- …Converted to tickets by hitting the Cash Out button.
Why do I only see one token/ticket in my inventory? What does the little number next to it mean?
The tokens and tickets that you obtain from Gold Mountain are what are called Quantified Items. Only one item is shown and the small number indicates the quantity of this particular item that you have in your inventory.
Can I block someone who’s being a nuisance while on a multiplayer slots game?
Your first option should be to ask her/him to desist. If they continue to annoy you, you can simply click on their avatar and select Ignore- a message in the chat window will alert you that the user is now in Ignore Mode.
If you wish to remove a player from Ignore Mode simply click on the player’s avatar and then select Stop Ignore.
A word about Ignore: Ignore affects YOU. It prevents you from seeing any messages sent by the offending player. Other players can still see conversations carried on by that member.
Can I report a player for a violation of the TOS while playing slots?
If you feel that a player is violating the terms of service agreement, asking that player to desist is the best course of action. If the player continues to misbehave you can report that user by clicking on the user’s avatar and selecting “Report Abuse”.
Please remember that differences of opinion do not necessarily constitute a violation of ToS, so do not use this button unless you’re certain that the person is breaching rules.
When in doubt, ask.
