Aristocrat Technologies’ popular Jaws Link four-level progressive jackpot
Aristocrat
Technologies’ popular Jaws Link four-level progressive jackpot is now available
for the European market.
Based on the iconic Universal Pictures film
franchise and packed with an array of interactive features and stunning sound
and visual effects, including a striking overhead display, Jaws Link simulates
the thrill of the hunt to keep players immersed in entertainment.
The base game features prize-winning symbols
derived from the “Jaws” film series, including a “floating barrel,” a “Beach
Closed” sign, a fishing boat called the “Orca,” a “bather” and a “snorkel”
interspersed with Aristocrat’s royals, A-K-Q-J-10-9. The “shark” symbol is
wild, and the “tooth” serves as a scatter symbol. Playing the ante bet can
bring about frequently occurring random bonus features: Golden Jaw, Shark
Hunter or Feeding Time, all interactive and themed to
thrill.
Base game symbol- or randomly triggered
features include a daring dice game and a wheel spin that multiplies free
games.
But it’s the exciting Jaws Link feature that
delivers the ultimate rush — a shark-chasing boat trip around a video game
board. Land on the same space as the shark to haul in one of the four
progressive jackpot prizes: Mini, Minor, Major or Grand.
Powered by Aristocrat’s robust Viridian/Gen7 platform, Jaws Link
is housed in an eye-catching ocean-blue cabinet with edge lighting and water
trim toppers
that change color as features are hit. Bell-ringing buoy toppers come alive
with movement, lighting and sound during play. Shark gill grills adorn the
speakers, and the “Bash” button features an embossed shark’s
tooth.
