Special Symbols and Features
Wild
WILD symbols remain on the board after contributing to a winning cluster. When two or more adjacent WILD symbols merge, they form a single WILD symbol with a multiplier based on the number of merged symbols and their individual multipliers. The total WILD multiplier is the sum of the merged WILDS’ multipliers, with a maximum of 20x. The multipliers apply to wins from clusters containing the corresponding WILD symbols.
Super Symbols
All high-paying symbols have Super Symbol variations of 2×2, 3×3, and 4×4 sizes. Multiple Super Symbols may appear, representing any high-paying symbol type.
Free Spins
Collect three FREE SPINS symbols to trigger 12 free spins. Each additional FREE SPINS symbol adds +3 spins. A maximum of 6 FREE SPINS symbols can land in a spin, granting a potential total of 21 initial free spins. During the FREE SPINS round, merging WILDS increase a GLOBAL MULTIPLIER, reaching a maximum of 20x. The GLOBAL MULTIPLIER applies to any winning cluster.
Every FREE SPINS symbol obtained during the FREE SPINS round awards +1 Bonus Spin.
How to Play Shah Mat
Total Stake
The Total Stake represents the cumulative amount wagered per line. You can adjust it anytime using the + or – buttons.
Spin the Reels
On desktop, click the Spin button or press the spacebar to initiate a spin. Speed up each reel spin by pressing the spacebar again or clicking on the reels. Hold down the spacebar or the Spin button for TURBO SPIN. Press the TURBO (fast_forward) button to accelerate the game!
Autoplay
Press the AUTO button to activate automatic play at the selected stake. Use the Total Spins Dropdown menu to choose the desired number of spins.
Additional Autoplay settings
Choose a loss limit: Autoplay stops when the loss limit is reached, with the final spin occurring just before that point. Ensure the Autoplay loss limit is higher than your stake. Access MORE AUTOPLAY SETTINGS to expand the autoplay dialog and select additional criteria, such as stopping if a single win exceeds a specified amount or stopping during the Bonus Feature.
Jackpot Game
Trigger one of the offered jackpot tiers by landing three or more jackpot symbols on the reels or through a game feature. Spin the jackpot wheel to determine the tier you’ll win. The size of the wheel segments does not indicate the odds of winning each jackpot tier. The chances of winning a jackpot increase with the size of the played stake. The jackpot is randomly triggered and can be won in any of the linked jackpot games. To win the jackpot, no decision other than spinning the reels is required. During free spins, the stake value cannot be changed. Connectivity issues may cause delays in jackpot messages or updates but do not affect actual jackpot wins. Two players cannot win the same jackpot simultaneously. If two jackpot wins occur close to one another, they will be assigned in their respective order. The displayed jackpot value may differ from the actual value due to connectivity issues. The jackpot may be temporarily deactivated, pausing all contributions. Upon reactivation, the jackpot amount will be the same as before deactivation. The rules for Jackpot discontinuation and Jackpot fund allocation are determined by each Operator’s discretion.
Progressive Jackpot
The progressive jackpot accumulates from all stakes placed on games offering this jackpot, sometimes across multiple websites. A portion of each total bet contributes to a shared pot. This contribution is divided between progressively increasing the jackpot amounts and a seed fund, guaranteeing a minimum amount for qualifying players after a jackpot is won. After winning, a new progressive jackpot becomes available, and the cycle repeats. The progressive jackpot can be triggered and won by a single user’s spin. It has no maximum limit and its odds increase with the jackpot size. When another player wins the jackpot, a notification appears in the jackpot panel. The won amount is immediately transferred to the user’s wallet, even if won during a bonus spin.
Time Jackpot
The time jackpot is a progressive jackpot guaranteed to pay out before a specified date and time. The prize pool grows with each spin’s stake contribution on a jackpot game, and as the advertised guaranteed payout time approaches, the odds of winning increase. The odds reach 100% at the guaranteed latest payout time. After winning, a new time jackpot becomes available with a fresh deadline for the next guaranteed payout. The time jackpot can be triggered and won by a single user’s spin. It has no maximum limit but must be won before the specified date and time. When another player wins the jackpot, a notification appears in the jackpot panel. The won amount is immediately transferred to the user’s wallet, even if won during a bonus spin.
Dynamic Jackpot Allocation
Only the first €2 of a stake is eligible to win the time jackpot. Stakes exceeding €2 contribute directly to the progressive jackpot.
Hourly (time)
Current starting value: €50. Next minimum starting value: €50.
Super Jackpot (progressive)
Current starting value: €100. Next minimum starting value: €100.
General Game Types
If unsure of the game type, consult the pays menu in the game’s paytable.
The values associated with each symbol, displayed on the slot scene or the dedicated Symbol Wins pages of the Pays menu, represent stake multipliers, not credits.
The prize value from a single payline equals the total stake divided by the number of paylines, multiplied by the symbol multiplier specified in the paytable. If multiple wins occur on different paylines, the total win values are added. On the same payline, only the largest win is paid. Each payline can pay only once per spin.
Example: Total stake is 2. Total paylines are 20. Symbol multiplier for a length of 5 is 300. The win for one payline with this symbol and length would be calculated as follows: 2 / 20 * 300 = 30.
The prize value from a single payline in a Multiline game equals the stake multiplied by the symbol multiplier specified in the paytable. If multiple wins occur on different paylines, the total win values are added. On the same payline, only the largest win is paid.
Example: Stake is 2. Symbol multiplier for a length of 5 is 20. The win for one payline with this symbol and length would be calculated as follows: 2 * 20 = 40.
The prize value from a single way or cluster in a Ways or Winning Clusters game equals the stake multiplied by the symbol multiplier specified in the paytable. If multiple wins occur on different ways or clusters, the total win values are added.
Example: Total stake = 2. Symbol win multiplier = 2. Win = 2×2 = 4.
During the Free Spins bonus rounds, the game uses a different set of reel strips.
If there is a Scatter Symbol in the game, all wins will be paid in addition to any other symbol wins occurring on the same spin.
