6 Wild Sharks (Relax Gaming) – Review & Demo Play

6 Wild Sharks - Game Overview

I've spent plenty of time with 6 Wild Sharks, a 4ThePlayer release on the Relax platform. It's a 6x4 ways slot with 4,096 ways, driven by high volatility and a slick Wild Choice idea. You pick between Classic and Advanced modes, with shark wilds living in marked Wild Zones. It's all about locked wild placement and timing, tied to a strong 96.50% RTP and a max win of 10,368x. The package feels focused, punchy, and rewards measured risk.

Theme and Design in 6 Wild Sharks

I rate the atmosphere. The reels sit semi-submerged in deep blue water, with the two Wild Zones framed in yellow and black like bollards. A tense, suspenseful score swells at key moments and nails the horror-tinged vibe without getting in the way. Visuals aren't flashy, yet the mix of surfers, divers, manta rays and octopuses does the job. It all fits the theme the studio aimed for, nodding to Jaws while keeping the focus on gameplay rhythm.

Symbols and Paytable in 6 Wild Sharks

The paytable splits cleanly. Lows are A-10 royals, styled to suit the water theme, paying roughly 1.2x to 2x for a six-of-a-kind. Premiums are the sea life and cast, with shoals of fish, manta rays, octopuses, a scuba diver, and the surfer girl at the top. Land six premiums to bank from about 2.5x up to 30x. Payouts are simple and transparent, so you know what you're chasing when sticky sharks start shaping the ways across the grid.

The shark is the wild, but it only appears in the Wild Zones on reels 1, 2, 5 and 6, and it carries no standalone value. It subs for regulars and is the key to lining up the best screens. The scatter is the sea buoy on reels three and four, and that symbol pair is what triggers free spins. No other gimmicks muddy the picture here, which I like, as it keeps the maths legible and the strategy crisp.

6 Wild Sharks - Technical Info

Under the hood it's a 6x4 reel set with 4,096 ways. Stakes run from 0.10 to 50 a spin, covering casual sessions and sharper shot-taking. RTP is a tidy 96.50% and, per the studio, the hit rate sits around 26.3%, so about a win every four spins on average. The bonus shows up roughly once in 130 spins in the long run. Those headline numbers stack well in this category and match what I've seen live.

Volatility is very high, so sessions can feel swingy, yet the ceiling is worth chasing. The top win is 10,368x the bet, delivered when sharks glue the edges and the right premiums stream through the middle. Mode choice does not change the RTP; it changes how you stake and where the risk sits. That suits my approach, as I can tailor front-loaded frequency or back-loaded punch without giving up long-term value across the configuration.

Bonus Features in 6 Wild Sharks

On loading, I pick Classic or Advanced. Classic plays like a standard ways slot. Advanced unlocks Wild Choice, letting me place up to six locked wilds anywhere in the two Wild Zones that cover reels 1-2 and 5-6. Each shark adds extra cost, and the price climbs as more are fixed. Front-reel locks tend to create wins more often; rear-reel locks swing harder when the fronts line up. You can adjust the setup before any paid spin.

Free Spins trigger when sea buoy scatters land together on reels three and four. In Classic mode you start with 15 spins, then trade spins for locked wilds if you want, all the way down to a wild-heavy single spin with six sharks. In Advanced you get 10 spins and carry over any base-game locks, with no new paid placement. In both cases, any fresh shark landing in a Wild Zone will lock for the duration at no extra cost.

Two scatters during the round add three more spins, with no cap. I've found the most engaging approach is to mix it up. A couple of front-reel locks for momentum, then rotate into a back-reel setup when the balance looks healthy. The feature breathes because you can shape it on the fly, and that agency matters in a ways game. When surfer girls flood the centre with sticky sharks either side, the payout potential feels very real.

The 200 Spins 6 Wild Sharks

I ran a 200-spin session to get a feel for pace. I set a €2 total bet and used autospins for the first 100. It played like a very high variance slot should, with plenty of dead spins and a scatter of small line hits. I also tried a couple of pre-paid wilds in Advanced. A buoy trigger dropped 10 free spins and the round landed an epic big win of about €1,350. Results vary, yet the flow made sense.

6 Wild Sharks - Verdict

6 Wild Sharks does what the title promises. The Wild Choice mechanic lets me place sharks where they matter, and that interaction keeps me engaged far longer than a set-and-forget grind. Filling the grid is pricey, so I prefer a measured spread, a bit up front and a couple on the back, then adjust as the balance moves. The figures hold up, with RTP and hit rate pairing well to support the swingier profile.

I like that overall RTP stays the same whichever mode I choose, so the decision is about style, not hidden maths. The top end at 10,368x is fair, and reachable when sticky edges meet premium runs. It isn't the flashiest looker, yet the feature set feels fresh, and session control is the hook. When a studio puts agency in my hands without breaking the numbers, I'm in. Here, they've nailed it.
