The Shark Features

The game has a system-wide progressive jackpot that is constant with all the online casinos who are offering this game. This jackpot can be won if a player got five starfish symbols on any payline given that he placed a maximum bet of 45, $0.01 coins. If you’re not lucky enough, two starfish symbols will still pay you 90 coins while three of which will get you 315 and four starfishes wins you 1,350 coins.

Aside from the progressive jackpot, The Shark also features two bonus rounds. The first one is the Shark Bonus Round. This is activated when three or more shark symbols appear in any of the reels. Once this happens, you will play a simple high card, low card game. This bonus game starts with three cards facing down. All a player must do is to guess whether the next card is higher or lower than the previous one.

Getting the right hunch wins you an amount that depends on your betting cost. If you have bet the maximum value, you can earn as much as 2,700 coins for the whole round. However, always take note that the slot machine loses in case of a tie and the ace is the highest-valued card.

The other bonus game is the Treasure Chest bonus game. Just like the Shark bonus game, you must get at least three Treasure Chest symbols to activate this game. Once it is triggered, one of these chests will open and you will win the amount that the chest contains. If you placed a maximum bet, you can win as much as 495 coins.

Other sea creature symbols will give you additional coins as well. After the starfish, the seahorse is the second highest-paying symbol. Two of these will get you 45 coins while a trio adds 180 coins to your bankroll. Four seahorses give you 540 coins while five of which makes you 1,225 coins richer.

Meanwhile, two, three, four and five sand dollar symbols win you 15, 135, 360 and 900 coins respectively. Three or more Octopus gets you 90-450 coins while three or more Rainbow Fish symbols makes you 45-270 coins richer. Also, three or more oyster symbols lets you earn 15-135 coins more.

How The Shark Is Played

Since it is a game from Real Time, The Shark can be played via a downloadable version or a flash version. You may also play this for fun or for real money given that you have a registered bankroll with your preferred online casino. If you do not have one, better register first before proceeding.

Once you have done this, you are now ready to play. Just like other progressive online slot machines, the game starts by placing a bet. The Shark’s fixed coin bet is $0.01 and the maximum coin value bet is 45 coins. This $0.45 maximum bet value makes you eligible for the progressive online jackpot which starts at $1,000 and reverts to that value every time it is won.

If you want to play for fewer paylines or fewer coins, you may set your bet by using the “Select Lines” and “Bet One” buttons. You may also place the maximum bet immediately by clicking the Bet Max button. Once you have done this, click “Spin” and wait until the machine registers random combinations.

You can also make use of Real Time’s skill stop feature that lets you dictate the symbols that will appear by interactively stopping the spin of the reels. Winning values will be automatically added to your bankroll but if you did not get the jackpot, part of your wager will be added to the progressive jackpot.
