Fishin’ Frenzy Demo

Our Demo Session

Nine free games into our second Fishin’ Frenzy round, the counter sat on £13.80 and the feature looked like a dud. Then two fishermen landed next to each other on the first two reels, each one hooking the same three fish, and the round closed on £67.80 at £1.20 a spin. We played three rounds of free games in the demo above, all on the UK build. Everything here comes from those sessions and the game’s own rules screens.

The other two rounds paid £57 and £49.80. Neither was dramatic, but neither was a washout, and all three opened with the minimum three boats for ten games.

Outside the feature, it’s a plain, brisk game. Base spins had stopped within about three and a half seconds of pressing the button, and a full set of ten free games ran from the opening board to the closing one in about a minute.

In the base game, the fish carry faded grey price tags that are barely readable. Once the free games start, the tags turn cream and easy to read, and the sky behind the logo shifts to sunset pink.

Fishin’ Frenzy RTP and Max Win

This demo’s rules page shows an RTP of 96.12%. Blueprint Gaming also publishes four lower versions at 90%, 92%, 93%, and 94%, so what you get at a real-money site depends on which one the operator has chosen. The site’s help screen will show which version you are playing.

The biggest payout from a single game is 50,000x the total bet, printed as £250,000 in the rules. The game has no volatility rating, and Blueprint’s listing has no figure either. Our three rounds came in between 41.5x and 56.5x the stake, for whatever a sample that small tells you.

Five reels, three rows and ten fixed lines paying from the left make up the grid. The demo’s stake menu starts at 20p and climbs to £400 a spin. UK rules cap online slot bets at £5 a spin, and at £2 for players aged 18 to 24, which rules out most of that menu. Blueprint dates the game to November 2017, and the paytable credits Reel Time Gaming as licensor.

Fishin’ Frenzy Payout Table

Every prize in the game is quoted as a multiple of the 12p line bet. We’ve converted those to multiples of the full £1.20 stake, with the cash amount alongside.

That ANY matters. Small and large fish count as one symbol, so a line can mix sizes and still pay. One of our early base spins lined up a small fish, a bigger one and another small one on line 2 for £1.20, just as the table says. The boat scatter has no cash prize of its own and is only there to open the free games.

Fishin’ Frenzy Free Spins

Land three, four or five boats anywhere in view, and you get 10, 15 or 20 free games at the stake that triggered them. A wooden board sets out the deal first, then the game waits for you to press spin.

The fisherman only turns up in the free games. He’s wild for line wins, and every fisherman in view collects the value of every fish on screen. Land two at once and each one collects, so the same fish pay twice, which is how our second round jumped. No retriggers or multipliers to chase, so you get only what you start with.

Our first round was more typical. On free game 3, a fisherman on the second reel scooped up five fish in one go, and that catch made up most of the £57 total.

The third round also leaned on one moment. A fisherman on free game 8 arrived with a £30 fish and a £6 one in view for £36, and the round finished on £49.80.

The boats took 31 spins at £1.20 to appear the first time and 24 in a fresh session. After the first round ended, the next set arrived just 16 spins later. Three quick starts in a row is luck, so expect longer waits. Neither version we loaded lets you buy the feature. Blueprint’s page mentions a red-or-black card gamble after wins, but the UK version never offered it.

Other Series Games

Fishin’ Frenzy has spawned a long run of sequels, and bingo lobbies often stack several in one row. Blueprint’s own pages describe the most-searched ones.

• Fishin’ Frenzy The Big Catch tracks your fishermen. Collect four upgrades to turn the smallest fish into the next size and add five spins; enough of them turn every fish into a Big Catch, paying 50x the bet. Blueprint lists 95.32% or 92%.
• Fishin’ Frenzy Even Bigger Catch keeps those upgrades and adds a Golden Fisherman who opens a pick with collect multipliers of up to x10. It tops out at 10,000x and comes in at 93% or 95%.
• Fishin’ Frenzy Megaways swaps the ten lines for Megaways reels with up to 15,625 ways, with the same fisherman free games. Base-game RTPs range from 92% to 96.10%.

Our Big Bass Splash free play also has a fisherman who collects fish values, but it pays out far more. Splash adds a retrigger ladder with multipliers and up to five modifiers drawn ahead of each round, and its fish can be worth 5,000x. Here the biggest fish is 50x and the round never changes once it starts.
