Twice in my 100 demo spins the game counted five gold coins on the reels, flashed "One more", and dropped a sixth that opened the cave. Those two bonus rounds paid 2,352.00 and 600.00 at 12.00 a spin, and the demo balance finished 2,926.20 up. PG Soft released this Arabian Nights slot in November 2025. Its base game runs on 243 ways, but most of its value comes from coins and the red jars that collect them.

Five reels of three rows pay from the left for three or more alike on adjacent reels. The wild, a scarred bandit in a gold turban, appears on reels two to five and does not replace coins or collectors. Each paytable point is worth 0.60 at the default 12.00.
| Symbol | 3 / 4 / 5 per way | Five at 12.00 |
|---|---|---|
| Alibaba | 25 / 75 / 300 | 180.00 |
| Woman in a blue veil | 15 / 50 / 150 | 90.00 |
| Donkey | 10 / 35 / 100 | 60.00 |
| Merchant's scales | 8 / 25 / 75 | 45.00 |
| Dagger, axe | 5 / 15 / 50 | 30.00 |
| A, K | 3 / 8 / 30 | 18.00 |
| Q, J | 2 / 5 / 20 | 12.00 |
On spin 36 two Alibabas on reel one and one on each of the other four reels made two ways of five, 600 points or 360.00.
Spin 72 did the same with merchant's scales: six ways of five, 270.00.
Coins and the red jar
Gold coins and red jar collectors can land on any reel in the base game. A coin without a jar pays nothing. When at least one jar is on the screen, every coin turns over to show a value from 1x to 10x the bet, and each jar collects the lot.
On spin 54 two coins of 60.00 sat on reels one and two, a jar landed on reel five, and the spin paid 120.00, ten stakes. Spin 63 collected 72.00 plus 1.20 for queens, and spin 67 mixed a 24.00 collection with 36.00 for axes.
The bonus, step by step
The bonus is a hold-and-win round built from the same two symbols:
- Six or more coins in one spin start the Bonus Feature with three bonus spins. With four or five, the game may add the missing coins itself.
- Empty cells can only show a jar or a blank; coins and four jackpot gems (Mini 20x, Minor 50x, Major 500x and Grand 5,000x the bet) appear when a jar turns over.
- Coins and gems stay put. The empty cells spin, and every jar that lands collects the value of everything on the grid.
- After paying, each jar turns into a coin or a gem, and the counter goes back to three.
- Three spins without a jar end the round.
Spin 56: 2,352.00
Five coins landed on reels one, two and four, and the "One more" animation added a sixth on reel five. The first jar arrived at the top of reel three and collected six coins for 180.00.
That jar turned into a green Mini gem worth 240.00, and from then on every collection counted it. The second jar took 360.00, including the gem.
| Collection | Paid | Round total |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 180.00 | 180.00 |
| 2 | 360.00 | 540.00 |
| 3 | 600.00 | 1,140.00 |
| 4 | 588.00 | 1,728.00 |
| 5 | 624.00 | 2,352.00 |
The coins also show new values each time a jar collects, so the fourth collection paid a little less than the third. By the end the grid was almost full: coins on most cells and several green gems, but no Minor, Major or Grand. Five collections came to 2,352.00, 196 stakes.
The second round, on spin 83, began the same way: five coins, one added by the game, and this time 600.00 when the counter ran out.
Session numbers
Thirty-two spins paid, 4,126.20 in all on 1,200.00 staked, and the balance ended on 102,926.20. The two bonus rounds made 2,952.00 of that. Five base-game spins worth 60.00 or more (36, 72, 54, 63 and 67) brought 883.20, leaving 291.00 for twenty-five small wins. Long dry runs were common: nothing paid from spin 10 to 17, from 24 to 32 or from 37 to 44.

Shark Bounty works on the same principle of prizes that need a partner, though there a shark multiplies the hunters instead of a jar collecting coins.
