What is Pool Shark?

According to Multiples.VC, the average enterprise multiple (EV/EBITDA) of top US-listed gaming companies is currently 10x. Data from New York University last updated in January pegged the overall market average at 23.9x and 19.7x among EBITDA-positive firms, suggesting the sector is undervalued relative to other industries. In a report released Monday, Fitch Ratings said most North American gaming companies hold “Stable” outlooks with “adequate rating headroom” despite consumer headwinds.

Macquarie’s Beynon agrees with that sentiment, pointing to the relative stability of gaming companies through tough economic stretches such as the Covid-19 pandemic. Bankruptcies in the sector have been low relative to the broader market, he notes, and both land-based and digital companies have reason for optimism moving forward.

“It’s certainly not lost on us that this sector has underperformed for several years in a row just because it doesn’t have either the growth of say, tech companies, or the perceived free cash flow-insulated businesses, which we believe it does…We’ve thought there’s been value in the sector for a few years, particularly this year,” he told iGB.

That modular approach is the reason the release stands out in a crowded segment. Rather than funneling players into one static bonus, Play’n GO gives Triple Beasts of Fortune multiple entry points that can stack. This changes how volatility and payout potential accumulate across a session.

The design is organized around color-coded Crystal Scatters, each tied to a distinct feature path. Every color is paired with a matching skull display and feature path: green for Upgrade, blue for Expand and red for Multiplier, and each feature awards seven spins as standard.

Each path alters a different part of the math model. Upgrade Free Spins turns Bison symbols into Thunder Bison that pay twice the standard value, while Expand Free Spins opens the grid to five reels by six rows and 7,776 payways. The third path introduces multiplier wilds to the middle reels.
