Play Shark Abyss for Free

Casual players will appreciate a low 0.1 credit entry point, while higher rollers can jump right in with stakes of up to 160 credits. Symbols land on five reels, and six rows, with 50 lines crossing this grid from the left. It’s a game that tends to pay higher prizes, but with more losing spins than winners, so set your bet at a level where the game can take a few bites out of your bankroll. The return to players of 96.20% is right around where I expect from high volatility games such as this.

I usually read through the payable of games new to me, then play the free version on VegasSlotsOnline. Spinning the reels of the Shark Abyss slot, I soon found out that even though there’s no mention of this on the payable, every win triggers cascades, as the winning symbols vanish and new ones drop into replace them.  It was a nice surprise that often saw several winning combinations from a single paid spin.

The shark is your friend here. He’s a 2x2 wild symbol who can act as others and if he lands on lower value symbols, a Pressure Pays feature triggers. The wild crushes the shells, taking their places, then applying a 2x multiplier to all adjacent positions. It can drop down multiple rows as long as low paying shells are underneath, applying more multipliers which boost any wins from the feature. I managed a couple of big wins this way, but in my experience, the wild shark is a rare species, and Pressure Pays didn’t trigger very often.

The fearsome giant squid in any three places grabs 10 free spins from the Shark Abyss online slot. There’s a nice animation as the backdrop changes from shallower waters to the depth of the ocean, where symbols gain a luminous green color. The other big difference between the free spins and base games is that any multipliers from Pressure Pays remain in place, building in value any time the shark crushes shells. You also get an extra five, eight, and 12 free games if three, four, or five bonus symbols land at once.
