THE SYMBOLS

Low value symbols are represented by the high end of a deck of cards, from nine through to Ace. If the right number of winning combinations land on a single spin, these symbols can offer between x0.05 and x0.6 the player’s stake. 

Meanwhile, sports bottles, basketball kits, tactics boards, sneakers, trophies and rings depict the high value symbols, providing wins between x0.1 and x3 the player’s wager. 

Bonus text scatters are available on reels two, three and four, depicting a running basketball player. Landing three scatters on the same spin will award 15 free spins. 

Special basketball player symbols can appear on the reels, leaving behind stopwatch symbols in their cell after they drop into play. On every tenth spin, each cell marked with a stopwatch will transform into a wild symbol. 

Wild symbols are represented by basketball nets depicting wild text, substituting for all symbols in the game other than the scatter. These symbols can only appear on every tenth spin, as a result of the basketball player symbol dropping into play. 

THE DETAILS

Throughout the game, a stopwatch sits beside the reel set, counting down from 10 to inform players when the enhanced wild spin will occur. 

On the tenth spin, each cell marked with a mini stopwatch will transform into a wild symbol to increase the win potential significantly. 

However, in the free spins feature, wild symbols will appear on every spin, with either five, seven or 10 wilds appearing scattered across each free turn. 

Players can buy access to the free spins feature for the price of x27 for five guaranteed wilds on every spin, x50 for seven guaranteed wilds on every spin or x95 for 10 guaranteed wilds on every spin. 

Additionally, after every successful spin, players can choose to gamble their winnings further by selecting the ‘double up’ option. This allows players to guess whether a coin will randomly land on heads or tails, doubling their winnings if they’re correct. 

WHAT THEY SAY

Fernando Van Velzen, Head of Account Management at Betsoft Gaming: “We’re incredibly excited about the launch of Take the Shot. The game embodies the spirit of competition and celebration that makes sports so captivating. We believe players will be on the edge of their seats as they aim for big wins, just like in a real basketball championship.”
