Fishin’ Frenzy might be one of the biggest slot series ever if not the most, but Blueprint doesn’t seem to stop expanding the range with new releases. You know, there’s always room for improvement, as even after presenting us theBig CatchandBig Catch Megawaysslots, the studio still has managed to come up with something even bigger, as the name of its new Fishin’ Frenzy Even Bigger Catch slot implies.
Don’t expect a whole new experience though as it’s still the good ol’ Fishin’ Frenzy with the fish collecting free spins being the main attraction. The looks here are not far off the original, except for the graphics have been improved, getting a little sharper. Everything else has stayed true to the past, and we bet you wouldn’t tell a difference when comparing this one with any other game in the franchise, of course, if there wasn’t the name written above the reels.
Traditionally, Fishin’ Frenzy Even Bigger Catch plays out across a5x3 reel setupwith10 fixed win lines. Thevolatilityis in themedium-to-highrange, and theRTPis slightly below average at95%. However, keep in mind there’s another version supplied with a93%value, so be sure to read the game’s rules carefully before depositing. Bets range from £0.1 to £20 per spin, and the maximum you can win is10,000x the bet, whichever comes first.
The reels are made up of the same symbols that we typically come across in Fishin’ Frenzy games. They are A-10 card ranks, which are lows, followed by tackle boxes, lifebuoy rings, fishing rods, and seagulls. All symbols pay from 3-of-a-kind and more, except for the trusty seagulls who need only two. Five-symbol winning combinations of lower symbols pay from5x to 10x your stake, while 5-of-a-kind premium symbol wins are worth from50x to 200x your stake.
In addition to the regulars, there’s a bunch offish symbolsincluded, which pay in mixes,up to 20x your stakefor line wins. Their main function though is to carryrandom bet multipliersranging from2x to 50x, which can be collected during the features, covered below.
Always, the gameplay here revolves around theFree Spinsfeature, and there are no extras to enliven the base game. To trigger the bonus, you need to landat least 3 Scatter symbolsanywhere simultaneously in view, and depending on the number of triggering symbols, you can get the following number of free games:
In the free games, newWild symbolscome into play. They substitute for any other regular symbols in winning combos, but most importantly theycollect all fish valuesin view whenever they appear.
That’s where the Fishin’ Frenzy Even Bigger Catch slot brings its little twist, adding a newGold Wildsymbol to the fold. Unlike the regular one, Gold Wildmultiplies all collected fish prizes. Whenever it lands on the grid along with any cash symbols, players are presented with apick of 3 fishto determine the multiplier value, which can be anything from2x to 10x.
Fisherman Wilds are also collected when they appear, andeach 4 collected Wildsupgrade the lowest fish symbol to the next size. Additionally,+5 free spinsare awarded.
Finally, players can also skip the less exciting part and jump straight into the action. Blueprint decided to add aBuy Featurehere, and for the cost of180x the base bet, players can activate the free spins immediately.
Although we’ve already seen quite a few Fishin’ Frenzy games, they can still provide a delightful gaming experience. While they essentially share the same concept, the slight adjustments and new features really do add a new layer of entertainment to the gameplay, which is why the series retains its huge popularity to this day. Well, it won’t capture the hearts of those who didn’t appreciate previous releases, but players into the Fishin’ Frenzy thing would definitely enjoy what the Even Bigger Catch version offers.
