THE PITCH
This six-reel, 4,096 ways slot removes paylines to make wins visually easier to see and includes the wild choice feature which allows players to choose where to place locked wilds.
THE DETAILS
The game includes two wild zones, marked on reels one, two and five, six. In these zones, shark wilds and locked wilds can only exist in these segments.
Furthermore, the title comes with two modes, classic and advanced, the latter is not enabled in the UK. In the advanced mode, players can add locked wilds into the wild zones on the base game using the wild choice feature.
During this round, locked wilds remain in place for all spins. Players can then tap symbols in the wild zones to create locked wilds. Each one has a set price that is added to the total best cost to spin.
As locked wilds are added or removed, costs for other locked wilds may change with each one being priced differently depending on the position of the symbol and number of locked wilds on other reels.
Reels one and two offer more frequent wins with five and six providing bigger rewards. If free spins are won then all locked wilds carry over into the free spins feature.
During the free spins bonus feature players can trade free spins for locked wilds, by clicking on the reels – the more wilds the fewer spins but the more volatile the experience. The player can add up to 6 Locked Wilds, going down to one super volatile free spin if they choose.
The free spins bonus is triggered by two buoy scatters that land on reels three and four. During the free spins round, any shark wilds that land on the reels will become locked wilds for the remainder of the free spins.
Also, two buoy scatters on reels three and four will retrigger to award three extra free spins. Retriggers can occur multiple times during free spins.
WHAT THEY SAY
Andrew Porter, CEO of 4ThePlayer.com, said: “6 Wild Sharks really puts you in control of the action, allowing you to configure the volatility of the bonus to exactly how you want it, with over 14,500 different configurations.”
