How can I find out how slots even work...

...I have no clue what I would have to do.

Do they all follow the same rules?

Seems to me like just a bunch of blinking lights

Absolutely not!
I have a page introducing online slots here: Beginners guide to online casino slot machines
That page is by no means inclusive, so if you have any further questions, just fire away!

Off-line slots (i.e. real machines in arcades & casinos) are even more complicated as very few, if any, have detail explanations of how to play, what the features actually do, etc...
Even I'm pretty clueless on them - and I've been a fruity addict for over 30 years!

Slots are so easy to play, as there are no strategies and you just do nothing but hit the spin button, that sometimes newbies find it surprising and hard to believe that the game requires nothing more but a bankroll and at least one hand for pushing the button

Slots are easy and really fun! Have fun playing.

Easy to play, after a few spins you find out how the slots you play works.
