Razor Shark Jackpots Slot (Push Gaming)

The Razor Shark Jackpots slot has 5 reels, 4 rows and 20 fixed paylines. To form a winning combination, 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols need to appear from left to right, starting from reel 1 and across any of the 20 paylines. Only the highest payout per payline will be awarded.

With a minimum bet of 10p a spin, the most you can play for in the UK is £5 per spin or £2 if under 25: click/press the Coins icon to see all bet options. Non-UK players have Autoplay (10 to 1,000 auto spins) and Turbo Mode.

The Razor Shark Jackpots RTP rate is 96.38%. However, there are 94.3% and 92.2% RTP variants to consider. Starting with a £20 balance and playing at 10p a spin, below is the expected number of spins before running out of funds for each RTP version:

• 96.38%: 5,498 spins
• 94.3%: 3,492 spins
• 92.2%: 2,552 spins

In the medium volatility bracket, there is no hit frequency rate information available. When it comes to payout potential, Razor Shark Jackpots oddly offers different max win numbers. It all depends on the RTP version you play with:

• 96.38%: 11,007.7 x bet
• 94.3%: 11,582.6 x bet
• 92.2%: 14,126.1 x bet

Finally, there is a 85.39% RTP version available in Germany which comes with 15,101.1 x bet max win potential!

With a shark theme, the Razor Shark Jackpots slot follows on from Razor Shark (August 2018), Razor Returns (July 2023) and Razor Ways (August 2024), meaning you’ll be descending into shark-infested waters once again.

With similar visuals as its predecessors, Push Gaming has enhanced the graphics with sharper and more colourful imagery. The first thing I noticed was the addition of a Great White Shark above the reels (it made me a little nervous initially). When it comes to the soundtrack, it has an intense soundtrack that adds suspense and excitement to the action.

On the reels, low-value symbols include scuba air tanks, flippers, googles and underwater cameras. The 4 high-value symbols include a blue, green, purple and orange shark: the orange shark is the best paying symbol, awarding 5 x your total bet for 5 in combination.

Then you have the Great White Shark Wild symbol: substituting for all paying symbols, it pays 1, 2.5 or 12.5 x your total bet for 3, 4 or 5 in combination. You’ll also come across Mystery, Scatter, Nudge Up and Instant Prize symbols.

Razor Shark Jackpots Mobile

Razor Shark Jackpots was created using HTML5 technology so is available to play on desktop, mobile and tablet devices. If you’re a smartphone player, it’s compatible with iOS and Android smartphones, in Portrait Mode.

Razor Shark Jackpots comes with plenty of bonus features, including Mystery symbols, nudges, Golden reveals, Instant Prizes, fixed jackpots and free spins with an increasing multiplier.

Nudge & Reveal

Look out for stacks of 4 Mystery symbols: they appear during base game and free spins. When Mystery symbols land, the Nudge & Reveal feature will be triggered. The Mystery symbols open and reveal either paying or Golden Shark symbols.

When they reveal paying symbols, any existing winning combinations are paid. When you spin again, the Mystery symbols nudge down by 1 position with the remaining reels spinning normally. The process repeats itself until they are no more Mystery symbols on the reels.

Token symbols can also be revealed: these are collected towards the Shark Pot above the reels. Once collected, the Token symbol will display the matching paying symbol.

Razor Reveal

When Mystery symbols reveal the Golden Shark symbol, the Razor Reveal feature is activated. Each position containing a Golden Shark symbol spins through different prizes. These include:

• Instant Prize symbols: worth between 1 and 1,000 x your total bet
• Scatter symbols: 3 anywhere on the reels will trigger the Free Spins feature
• Nudge Up symbol: can only land when 3 Scatters have landed and they cause Mystery symbols to nudge up by 1 position at the start of the free spins

The total win value of all Instant Prize symbols will be awarded at the end of the Razor Reveal feature.

Free Spins

The Free Spins feature is triggered by landing 3 or more Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels (during a base game spin or the Razor Reveal feature).

Reels 2 and 4 are filled with Mystery symbols. On every free spin, Mystery symbols nudge down 1 position: this causes the All Wins Multiplier meter to increase by 1. This applies to all wins at the end of every free spin. The free spins continue until no Mystery symbols appear anywhere in view.

The maximum number of Nudge Up symbols are limited so that there is still a Mystery symbol on the reels. Each Nudge Up symbol revealed sees all  Mystery symbols nudge upwards by 1 position. Any new Mystery symbols that land also nudge down by 1, triggering extra free spins. Finally, the last nudge down doesn’t increase the All Wins Multiplier meter.

Jackpot

When Token symbols are collected to the Shark Pot, there is a chance that the Shark Pot triggers the Jackpot feature, randomly. With reels 2 and 4 filled with Golden Shark symbols, they nudge down on each spin. The Jackpot feature continues as long as Golden Shark symbols are present on the reels.

With only Golden Shark symbols and duds appearing, new Golden Shark symbols also nudge down by 1 position. Golden Shark symbols can reveal Instant Prize symbols and Jackpot Tokens.

Jackpots are awarded when enough tokens for each Jackpot Meter have been collected. When a Jackpot has been awarded, the meter resets and can be refilled again. With 5 different jackpots, the table below highlights the number of tokens required to win that jackpot:

Razor Shark Jackpots Slot

Rating: 3.5/5

Razor Shark Jackpots is a watered-down version of previous ‘Razor’ slots with fixed jackpots worth up to 5,000 x bet. Max win potential is the lowest in the series.

Chris Taylor

When I heard that Push Gaming were releasing the Razor Shark Jackpots slot, I was instantly excited. With previous ‘Razor’ slots being so good, my feeling was that Push were adding on progressive jackpots: I was wrong. On a positive note, the graphics and animations are much sharper compared to its predecessors.

The gameplay is similar to its predecessors: the Nudge & Reveal symbol will see Mystery symbols reveal paying or Golden Shark symbols. If you get the latter, you’ll play the Razor Reveal feature: this awards Instant Prize symbols up to 1,000 x bet, Scatters or Nudge Up symbols.

In the Free Spins feature, you play until no more Mystery symbols appears on the reels. I do quite like the All Wins Multiplier meter as this applies to all wins, on each free spin. In the Jackpot feature, you can win Instant Prizes and Jackpot Tokens: can enough of the same Jackpot Token to win the fixed jackpot with the Mega Jackpot the biggest at 5,000 x your total bet.

Now, the part I find strange are the RTP rate/max win potential figures: the highest RTP variant (96.38%) offers 11,007.7 x bet max win potential whilst the 94.3% and 92.2% RTP variants offer 11,582.6 x bet and 14,126.1 x bet, respectively. The 85.39% RTP version (in Germany only) offers 15,101.1 x bet max win potential.

That said, Razor Shark Jackpots offers the lowest max win potential in the ‘Razor’ series: Razor Returns has the highest (100,000 x bet max wins). If you want popular slots with progressive jackpots bolted on, there are plenty to choose from: you have Dream Drop slots from Relax Gaming (such as Dead Man’s Trail Dream Drop and Cluster Tumble Dream Drop) as well as Big Time Gaming’s Bonanza Megapays and IGT’s MegaJackpots Cleopatra.
