Dan Marino Hail Mary

DAN MARINO HAIL MARY

How to play

Introduction

  • “Dan Marino Hail Mary” is an instant-type game that features Dan Marino as a quarterback and up to 4 possible stages of play called ‘Downs’ during each staked game.
  • Dan Marino throws a ball which is either caught or dropped by one of 14 different receivers that have a different cash prize or a jackpot associated with them. If you progress to the Downs, on the 1st you can win a cash prize, but if you advance on the following Downs you have the chance to win a progressive jackpot: Minor, Major, and Grand.
  • In addition, in any of the 4 Downs you also have the chance to light up the 3 Bonus Spotlights to trigger the Wheel Bonus Game and win stake multipliers.

How to Bet

  • You have to select your desired stake using the STAKE button. As you update your stake selection, the cash prizes will increase or decrease accordingly.
  • Once you are ready, press the PLAY button to start the game.

Game Round

  • On the main game screen, there are 14 receivers standing on a football field. Each one displays and has an associated cash prize above their head.
  • As you update your stake selection, the cash prizes will increase and decrease accordingly for each receiver.
  • When you click on Play, Dan Marino throws a ball down the field, resulting in one of two potential outcomes:
    • One of the 14 receivers catches the ball, awarding you with the associated prize. You will be informed if you have progressed to the next Down, which is automatically triggered.
    • One of the receivers drops the pass and the game round ends.
  • Additionally, in each Down there are 3 Bonus Spotlights which may light up - in the event all 3 Spotlights are lit, you will be informed that you have triggered the Bonus Round which will play AFTER all Downs have been completed. Once you reach your final Down, the game pays the cash amount accumulated to that point and you enter the Wheel Bonus Round for the chance to win more.

Downs Feature

  • Each time a receiver successfully catches a ball, you will be awarded with the cash prize associated with that receiver and an extra Down. You can potentially play up to 4 Downs, and for each Down, available prizes will increase:
  • 1ST DOWN: In this Down there are only cash prizes available. No jackpots are visible, or can be won, during the first Down.
  • 2ND DOWN: You have the chance to win ONLY the Minor Jackpot, which will be above one of the 14 receivers’ heads.
  • 3RD DOWN: You have the chance to win the Minor and Major Jackpots which will occupy spaces above 2 separate receivers’ heads.
  • 4TH DOWN: You have the chance to win the Minor, Major and Grand Jackpots which will occupy spaces above 3 separate receivers’ heads.
  • As you move through the Downs the cash prizes on the receivers will increase and all awards won to that point are added to the total win counter on screen.
  • If you win a jackpot the prize is added to their total and they progress to the next Down.

Wheel Bonus Feature

  • In any Down you can win the Wheel Bonus Game, including the 1st Down where the receiver drops the ball and no cash prize is awarded. The prices are stake multipliers from 5x to 100x. This bonus game it's separate from the base game.
  • On the screen amongst the receivers, there are 3 Spotlights symbols that light up randomly on any Down. If 0, 1, or 2 Spotlights light up nothing is actioned as the Wheel Bonus is ONLY triggered when all 3 Spotlights are lit up during a Down.
  • If you win the Wheel Bonus Round it will trigger AFTER all cash prizes are paid out when a receiver drops a ball in a Down.
  • The 3 Spotlights symbols remain lit during the available Downs in the game.
  • If the game is only being played over on Down 1st – all 3 Spotlights lit must occur on the 1st Down. In any Down where 3 Spotlight are NOT lit they will reset for the next Down - i.e. Spotlights do NOT remain lit between Downs.
  • If the game is being played on Down 3rd, it is a random decision over awarding 1/2/3 spotlights in each level – but the number cannot exceed 3.
  • Once you are in the Wheel Bonus Round, you have to click on “Click To Spin” to spin the wheel. You only have 1 spin and you always win a prize.
  • All win values are shown as multiples of game stake.

Jackpot Legal Notice

  • Any Jackpot and its corresponding entry cost is defined in your operator’s default currency. If you are playing in any currency other than the default, jackpot values and entry costs visible in-game will be automatically converted into your local currency using a conversion rate as defined by your operator. Unless otherwise noted, all Jackpot values in this document are presented in default currency.
  • Jackpot values displayed in-game are delayed by up to 30 seconds.
  • The payout value of any Jackpot will be the current amount on the Jackpot server. Every effort is made to ensure that the amount displayed in the game is as close to the actual value as possible.
  • Should two or more players appear to win the same Jackpot in close succession, then the first player will win the full amount and the next player will win the reset amount plus any further contributions. The same will apply to any subsequent players.
  • The progressive jackpot is available in “real play” only.

Max Win

  • Any combination of wins in a single game is limited and will not exceed $250,000.00. It may not be possible to reach this limit in a single game from every bet configuration.
  • Note: Progressive jackpot winnings shall not be considered in the max winnings parameter.

Terms and Return to Player

  • The theoretical average return to player (RTP) is 95.07%
  • The need to force wins when a PJP chance is passed but there is no game win in that game means that extra wins must be awarded to get to the game level required to award the PJP. This means RTP varies slightly by stake, as it increases with stake:
    • BASE GAME: 66.67%
    • BONUS GAME: 24.40%
    • PJP: 4.00%
    • GAME TOTAL: 95.07%
  • In the event of a game in real play being interrupted, (i.e. started but not completed due to connectivity issues or accidentally closing the browser, etc.), depending on the previous state of the game, it will either resume from the point of the last draw or display the outcome of the game already in play. Any winnings will be correctly credited to the player account and will be exact according to the result prior to the game being interrupted.
  • In the event of a non-responsive game or problem during a bonus round, the game will repeat the incomplete game and display the result to the player when the game is next launched.
  • In the event of equipment failure or planned/unplanned terminations, progressive jackpot parameters, (including jackpot values and incremental percentages), are fully restored with identical parameters, after the restart.
  • The odds of getting a particular outcome are always the same at the start of every game. The odds do not vary based on prior outcomes, bet size, balance size, numbers picked, time of day, day of the week, etc. For example, if the top award is won on a given play of the game, the chances of winning the top award on the next play are exactly the same. Likewise, prior losses do not change future odds.
  • Malfunction voids all pays and plays.
