Golden Whale on Sky777: How the Whale Wild Pays

The golden whale is both the top symbol and the wild, and it doubles any win it helps complete. Here is how the lines and bets work.

The golden whale runs this game. It is the highest-paying symbol on the paytable and the wild, and five of them on a line pay 10,000.

As a wild, the whale substitutes for every other symbol on a payline except one: the scatter, which it cannot replace.

When the whale helps complete a win, that win is doubled. You don't have to do the maths yourself. The paytable lists every payout twice, once with a wild and once without, so you can see exactly what the doubling is worth for each symbol.

Paylines and line selection

By default all lines are in play, but you can cut the number of paylines with the plus and minus buttons at the bottom of the screen. Fewer lines lowers the cost of a spin. It also lowers the number of ways a win can land, so it is a trade-off rather than a trick.

Every active line must carry the same bet, so your total stake is coin value times coins per line times the number of lines. At the top settings that adds up quickly. Work out the total before you press spin, not after.

Trying Golden Whale

Start with a low coin value while you get a feel for how often the whale turns up, then adjust. Slots are chance-based, and a doubled wild win is a nice bonus, not something to count on.
