Sharky rules before the first stake
To understand Sharky, first confirm how payouts are evaluated, because neither the title nor the artwork reveals the real payout model, after which a comparison with Faust Buy Bonus can use actual rules instead of appearance.
According to the card, Sharky has a Medium volatility profile, which is useful when choosing stake size and session budget, because volatility does not say when a large win should occur.
The Novomatic line-up includes Sharky, but games from one studio do not automatically use the same mathematics, especially if Faust Buy Bonus is being considered as the nearest alternative.
What the Sharky rules say about bonuses
Confirm the additional modes in Sharky before the first stake, so you know what starts the feature and what changes after activation, since Aztec Eclipse Hold & Win may use a different bonus structure.
The upper payout shown for Sharky is up to 5 000×, and a high ceiling alone does not make a large result more likely, while keeping the pre-set stake limit unchanged.

Sharky: stake, budget and time
Control of a Sharky session starts with a fixed budget, because neither RTP nor previous spins guarantees that losses will be recovered, regardless of the advertised maximum up to 5 000×.
What the Sharky figures mean
Reduced to the key parameters, Sharky is RTP up to 96%, volatility Medium and Max Win up to 5 000×, but the final comparison should use the figures in the running build, before moving on to differences in mechanics.
For context, Sharky is compared with Faust Buy Bonus and Aztec Eclipse Hold & Win, and this helps compare releases without making claims about future outcomes, without treating the table as a replacement for active-version rules.
