What is Pick and Click?

Pick and click is a bonus round in which the player selects from a set of concealed objects and each selection reveals what was behind it. It is one of the oldest interactive slot features and appears under many names — pick me, pick a prize, choose your bonus — with the same structure underneath. The important thing to understand is that the choice is almost never a real one. The outcome of the round is determined when it starts, and which object you touch decides only the order in which the result is shown. Some games make this obvious by revealing the values behind the options you did not pick once the round ends, which is a form of honesty worth noticing: it shows there was a fixed set of prizes rather than a reward for choosing well. What the round awards varies. The common forms are a straight coin or multiplier prize, an entry into one of several free-spins modes with different characteristics, or a collect-until-you-hit structure where you keep picking until a stopper appears. Where a game offers several free-spins modes through a pick round, the modes usually trade frequency against size, so the one you are given shapes the whole feature rather than merely decorating it.
