INTRODUCTION

6 WILD Sharks is a 6-reel 4,096 Ways slot created by 4ThePlayer.com. Ways removes paylines making it easier to see where the win is.

A win is formed from consecutive symbols starting from the first reel.

6 WILD SHARKS features WILD CHOICE™ allowing the player to choose where to place locked wilds.

The game also features 4ThePlayer’s unique BIG REEL Portrait Mode™.


HOW TO PLAY

The player chooses their bet amount using the + and – symbols above or below the spin button. All wins are multiplied by the bet. For details on win payouts see the game paytable.

To play the game, the player presses the spin button - the largest button with 4 arrows. If playing on PC and if enabled from the game options menu, the space bar can be used to spin.

When the spin stops winning symbols are highlighted.

Wins pay from left to right except in the BIG REEL Portrait Mode™ where a win pays from top to bottom.


BIG REEL Portrait Mode™

When playing on mobile in portrait, the player has the option of playing classic small reels or BIG REEL Portrait Mode™. This option enlarges the reels, stacks them on top of each other and spins them right to left and pays top to bottom. This maximizes the visual experience on the mobile without changing the game experience.

This mode is only available in portrait mobile play, payouts and game features are unchanged.


WILD ZONES

There are two WILD ZONES, as marked on reels 1,2 and 5,6 as WILD ZONE.

Locked Wilds remain in place for all spins. Tap symbols in the WILD ZONES to create Locked Wilds. Each Locked Wild has a set price that is added to the Total Bet cost to spin.

As Locked WILDs are added or removed costs for other Locked WILDs may change.

Locked Wilds are priced differently depending on the position of the Locked Wild and number of Locked Wilds on other reels.

A minimum of 1 Wild and up to 6 Wilds can be placed. Tap a Locked Wild to remove it.

Place Locked Wilds on reels 1 and 2, for frequent wins, place Locked Wilds on reels 5 and 6 for bigger wins. If Free Spins are won, all Locked Wilds carry over into the Free Spins feature.

HOW TO CALCULATE A WIN WITH 4096 WAYS

If any of the reels contain more than 1 instance of the symbols, the win will be multiplied.

Multiply the number of symbols on each of the reels to get the final payout multiplier.

For example, if the first reel contains 2 symbols, second reel 3 symbols and third reel 2 symbols, the paytable value is multiplied by 2*3*2=12.

Autoplay allows the player to play without pressing spin. To open autoplay, press the autoplay button – the small button with 4 arrows and a play icon in the middle.

The player has the option of choosing the number of spins, loss limit, and single win limit. The spins will automatically stop when the chosen number has completed or the loss limit or single win limit is hit.

When the autoplay is active, the spin button becomes a stop button which displays the number of spins remaining. To stop autoplay spins, press the stop button.
