Operation M.Y.O.W. is a 3-reel game where players choose from five different pay tables and each pay table is displayed on the machine. It may be played in denominations of $.05, $.25, $.50, $1, and $5.

The theme of this slot machine is feline (cat) with an Asian flair with pay table symbols including Coi, Dragons, Flowers, etc. In addition, cat icons represent the five lucky colors.

Each pay table has a distinctive name and lucky color. The names are: Lucky (White), Catman (Purple), Kung Fu Kitty (Yellow), Catzilla (Green), and The King (Pink). Players have the ability to scroll through the set of five different pay tables and play on the one that they choose. The player chooses between the different pay tables at anytime by selecting a prominently displayed ‘Next Paytable' button.

Each pay table has different payouts, but the wheels work the same regardless of which one the player has chosen. A player can change, at any time, to a new pay table and each one has its own flavor. The players' choice does not affect the way the wheels stop. Overall, the pay tables have very similar odds to the player.
