Slingo Shark Week

About Slingo Shark Week

Slingo Shark Week is a Slingo game from Gaming Realms (Slingo Originals), made in partnership with Discovery Channel and based on its annual Shark Week programming. The standard Slingo format applies: a reel strip under a 5x5 number grid, where completed lines move you up a ladder of prizes.

What sets it apart is the ladder itself, which holds six feature games, from a shark-themed mini slot to a full-house money bag pick. Real shark footage from the TV show plays in the bonus intros. At Midnite, stakes start from £0.20 per game, with 10 spins to start each game.

How to Play Slingo Shark Week

Set your stake and spin. When a reel number matches one in the column above, it gets marked. Wilds mark a number in their column, Super Wilds mark any number on the grid, Free Spin symbols add a spin, and Blockers simply take up space. Five marked numbers in a row, column or diagonal make a Slingo.

Each Slingo moves you up the ladder, and the higher rungs lead into the feature games, which play out at the end of the game. Once your 10 starting spins are gone, you can buy extra spins at the price shown, or collect. The full ladder and feature values are listed in the in-game help.
