Fishin' Frenzy Even Bigger Catch Slot Demo & Review – Play for Free

Blueprint Gaming has made it big in the Canadian iGaming market, particularly in Ontario, where they hold a full AGCO license. Their excellent reputation probably has a lot to do with their Jackpot Royale system, where a portion of every stake across a network of games (including Fishin’ Frenzy Even Bigger Catch) contributes to three shared progressive pots. 

This sequel takes it back to the iconic fisherman. You just cast your line, find the biggest fish, and hope the fisherman shows up to net them. It’s peaceful in the base game, but frantic once the schools of cash fish start dropping during the free spins.

Sticking to the traditional 5x3 grid layout here, Even Bigger Fish features 10 fixed paylines that are always active. This simplicity is actually its strength because it's easy to track wins – left to right on consecutive reels, beginning with the far left reel.

The RTP is 95% (below average), and it's classified as a medium-high volatility game. In simple terms, you’re going to face some dry spells, but those odd wins are usually on the bigger side. So, quality over quantity, so to speak.

The betting range is extreme on both ends, with a starting stake of $0.10 all the way up to $100 per spin. Some Canadian bookmaker sites cap the maximum bet at $20 or so, though, depending on local regulations.

What makes this sequel “even bigger”? The 10,000x max win (a sweet upgrade from the OG’s 5,000x cap). To walk away with a payout that big, you need to get into the free spins round and collect 4 fishermen to upgrade fish values. Then, you need to land a golden fisherman with a 10x multiplier on a screen full of high-value fish. 

Attention high rollers: the max payout cap from a single game is $250,000.

• Boat Scatter: You need three to five boats anywhere on the grid in one spin to trigger 10, 15, or 20 free games (more boats equals more spins).
• Fish Symbols: The fish are just regular symbols in the base game, but they carry cash values ranging from 2x to 50x in the bonus round.
• Fisherman Wild (only in bonus round): These substitute for all the other symbols to help you form more wins. They also collect all the values on each fish symbol that lands on the same spin.
• Golden Fisherman (only in bonus round): These guys also collect fish values, but they come with a golden multiplier. You need to play the bonus game to reveal what that is before it applies to the total payout for the spin.

Three to five boat scatters trigger up to 20 free games, where the fisherman wild is active on all reels and collects the value of every fish symbol that lands at the same time. These values can range anywhere from 2x to 50x your stake. 

The Free Games Bonus

You can retrigger an extra 5 free spins if you’re lucky enough to collect 4 fishermen during the active bonus. Thereon, the lowest-value fish symbols are removed and upgraded to the next size for the rest of your spins.

Where the major potential comes in: The extra free spins! If you complete the collection trail of 12 fishermen, every fish that lands is worth the maximum value.

The golden fisherman functions exactly like the normal one (wild / collector), but with a twist:

The Golden Fisherman & Multipliers

1. You enter a pick-a-fish mini-game as soon as you land a golden fisherman.
2. The fish you pick will reveal a multiplier between 2x and 10x.  
3. This multiplier is then applied to the total cash value of all the fish you collected.
   For example, if you land $50 worth of fish with a golden fisherman and pick a x10 multiplier, you walk away with $500 from a single spin.
