Kitty Glitter is a 5-reel, 30-payline slot with a fixed line-pay format: you set your total bet, spin, and wins form left-to-right on active lines. The Kitty Glitter logo acts as a Wild, and landing three Bonus symbols on reels 2 to 4 opens the Free Spins round, which starts at 15 spins and can grow through retriggers.

  • Lines are fixed at 30 in most online versions — there's no line selection to configure
  • Wilds substitute for regular symbols but not for the Bonus symbol
  • The free spins round changes the game noticeably by adding a diamond-collection mechanic on top of extra spins

Reading the reels and the paytable

Kitty Glitter runs on a standard 5x3 grid with 30 fixed paylines, so every spin evaluates the same set of lines rather than adjustable ways or clusters. Wins are read left-to-right starting from reel one, which is the classic format most reviewers use as a baseline for volatility and pace comparisons within IGT's slot library.

The paytable splits into two tiers. Four cat symbols sit at the top — reviewers generally agree the white cat pays the most, followed by the orange, calico and Siamese cats — while the five card ranks from Ace down to 10 fill out the lower end. Exact cash values differ slightly between the sources checked for this page, so treat the ranking as reliable and the specific payout figures as something to confirm in the paytable of whichever casino you're using.

The Kitty Glitter logo itself works as the Wild. It appears on reels 2 through 5, substitutes for any regular paying symbol, and does not substitute for the Bonus symbol — a bowl of diamonds that only appears on the middle reels and exists solely to trigger the free spins feature.

There's no cascading, no nudge feature, and no respin mechanic layered onto the base game. What you see is a fairly conventional line-pay structure, and the design puts its complexity into the bonus round rather than the base spins.

Because the base game is comparatively plain, the rhythm of a session depends heavily on how often the Bonus symbol shows up. Reviewers describe the base RTP contribution as steady but modest, with the free spins round doing most of the heavy lifting on payout variance.

Terms used on this page

Payline

A fixed pattern across the reels that must show matching symbols, starting from the leftmost reel, for a win to count.

What stands out, and what doesn't

Minus points

  • No bonus buy option, so reaching the free spins depends entirely on natural symbol landings

Common questions about playing Kitty Glitter

Do the paylines in Kitty Glitter ever change per spin?

No. The 30 lines are fixed in most online versions, so every spin evaluates the same set of lines rather than letting you select fewer or more.

Does the Wild symbol substitute for the diamond Bonus symbol?

No. The Kitty Glitter logo Wild substitutes for regular paying symbols on reels 2 through 5 but does not replace the Bonus symbol needed to trigger free spins.

What actually changes once the free spins round starts?

A diamond-collection mechanic activates on top of the extra spins, gradually converting cat symbols into additional Wilds as diamonds land, which is different from a standard extra-spins bonus.

Can the free spins round add more spins mid-feature?

Yes, retriggering is possible during the round, though the exact upper limit isn't consistently documented across sources, so treat any specific total as approximate.

Is there a way to buy into the free spins feature directly?

No, Kitty Glitter has no bonus buy option, so the free spins round can only be reached by landing three Bonus symbols on reels 2 to 4 during play.
