Lions Share Review
Lions Share is a non-progressive slot machine developed by Microgaming as part of its Classic Slot series. The game has three reels, one payline and a three-column paytable. It also integrates some features, such as wild symbols and multipliers, that aren’t common to the series of classic slots in general.
Gameplay
Lions Share has three spinning reels and a centered payline that’s visible at all times. Symbols must touch that line to count, and it’s not unusual for them to be off-center. Like most machines in this series, Lions Share uses coin sizes ranging from $0.25 to $5, and users have the option of betting one to three coins, so possible wagers range from $0.25 to $15. The jackpot on a three-coin bet adds a 2,000-coin bonus, so we recommend that you always bet three coins, which requires at least a 75-cent stake.
Special Features
Lions Share has an “Any 2” feature on the cherry symbols, which means that it pays out with three across or with two cherries in any position. The single, double and triple bar symbols also have an “Any Bar” feature, which means that any combination of three of those symbols results in a payout. The main draw to Lions Share, however, is the lion symbol, which is the jackpot symbol but also a wild symbol with a built-in multiplier. The lion can stand in for any other symbol to form a standard three-symbol combination. If there’s one lion present in a combo, the winnings are doubled, and if there’s two lions present, the winnings are quadrupled.
Graphics and Audio
Lions Share has a polished look to it as well as an effective art style and color palette. As with most Microgaming Classics, the spin action and the reflections on the glass make it look like the real deal. The sound selection is authentic as well and greatly helps with the immersion.

Jackpot
At one, two and three coins staked, Lions Share pays out 2000, 4000 and 8000 coins. The chance to win a $500 jackpot on a $0.25 bet is quite impressive. On a max bet, the jackpot is a whopping $40,000, which makes it quite clear why this is one of the most popular entries in the series.
Overall
The opportunity to win $40K on a pub machine is a big deal, and that makes this machine far more lucrative than most of the other options in the series. For that reasons alone, this is a regular play for us. We recommend at least playing $0.75 per spin, which gives you a shot at a $2,000 jackpot and a $900 win on two lions and a gold coin.

What makes The Lion’s Share different
Make no mistake, many of the jackpots on offer at Sun International casinos are enough to make a grown man ululate, but there’s great news on the slots front. A new game, The Lion’s Share slot machine, is upping the winning stakes. In a nutshell, more punters are set to win more often.
The Lion's Share Slot Machine Slot
Jackpot machines may only pay out on average every 10 days. The Lion’s Share slot machine is different because the average jackpot value is dropped from just over R1 million to just over R100 000, but it will pay out almost every day.
The Lion’s Share was created to share the love, so more people get to win more often. Sun International is the only casino group in South Africa that has Wide Area-linked Progressive Jackpot machines (a jackpot style machine, which is linked across most of our properties). By using this technology, the jackpot increases faster and goes off more often.
How the game works
The Lion’s Share is an African-themed game that has three levels of Progressive Jackpots - with twists along the way. There are three Jackpots, aptly called the King, Queen and Cub. To win big, however, you need to win The Lion’s Share.
How the jackpots are divided up

The Cub Jackpot starts at R2 500 and should pay out about 30 times a day across selected Sun International casinos, and in this case, the winner takes all.

The Queen Jackpot starts at R15 000 and should pay out about five times a day across the group. When this jackpot pays to the lucky winner, everyone that is on the same bank (same group of machines) and is actively playing a machine at the time of the hit will win a Queen Jackpot Bonus payout.
The King Jackpot starts at R75 000 and should pay out almost once a day across the group. In a world first, this game also has a Bonus Pot (see more below). The machine has four betting options: R2.50, R5, R7.50 and R10. The size of your bet determines the percentage you will win if you hit the King Jackpot:
- Bet R2.50 - Win 25% of the King Jackpot - 75% is added to the Bonus Pot.
- Bet R5.00 - Win 50% of the King Jackpot - 50% is added to the Bonus Pot.
- Bet R7.50 - Win 75% of the King Jackpot - 25% is added to the Bonus Pot.
The Bonus Pot starts at a value of R25 000 and will grow and grow until a lucky player wins the King Jackpot, playing a bet of R10. When this happens, the player wins all of the King Jackpot and everything in the Bonus Pot − this is what is called winning ‘The Lion’s Share’.
