Razor Shark

Razor Shark keeps its base game simple, a 5x3 grid with fish, coral and shark symbols paying across a modest set of lines. The real focus is a hold-and-win bonus that can trigger three different ways, each locking coin symbols in place and awarding a limited number of respins to fill the rest.

New coins landing during the respins reset the counter, so the feature can stretch out considerably when several land close together. Coin values vary, and some carry higher multiples of the total bet, which is where the game's largest results tend to come from.

Push Gaming built this one at high volatility, and the payout return is set at 96.1%.

A solid choice for players who specifically enjoy hold-and-win bonus rounds. Diamond Strike and Wolf Gold run a similar structure with different themes.

The three separate bonus triggers each require a different coin count, so the respin feature can technically start smaller or larger depending on which one fires. Push Gaming's shark artwork here later influenced the studio's other ocean-themed releases.

Because the three bonus triggers work independently, it's entirely possible to see one fire multiple times in a session while the others stay dormant for a long stretch. That variance adds to the game's high-volatility reputation.
