Trophy Fish

Red Tiger's Trophy Fish drops into the crowded fishing-slot genre with bubbled reels, blue water, a seaside backdrop, a fisherman and a shoal of fish. The visuals are tidy without being unusual; the interest lies in the collect mechanic and the size of the top prize.

The grid is 5x3 with 20 paylines, and combinations pay from the leftmost reel. Royals from 10 to A are the low pays, giving 2.5 to 3x for five of a kind, while the premium group is fishing tackle and a boat, hook and net among them, paying 5 to 50x for five. RTP is 95%, volatility is high, stakes run from 0.10 to 4 per spin, and the maximum win reaches 20,752x.

The Fisherman Wild is the pivot of everything. He can appear on just one cell, the exact centre of the grid, substitutes for all paying symbols, and while he is in view he catches every fish on the reels and awards their values.

Fish symbols land anywhere except that central spot. Each one locks in place for 2 spins, and any new fish that lands resets the counter on every locked fish back to 2. They stay until the Fisherman collects them. Three kinds carry money. Cash Fish show bet multipliers of 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x or 10x. Trophy Fish are the big symbols in four colours: blue at 50x, green at 100x, red at 250x and purple at 1,000x. Golden Fish share the cash values and also raise a prize multiplier shown above the reels, applied to all cash prizes caught: one, two, three or four Golden Fish give x3, x5, x10 or x20, and up to four can be in view together.

A separate Free Spins Fish awards 8 free spins when caught. In the round, the Fisherman is fixed in the centre for the whole feature and collects whatever fish land. Each further Free Spins Fish caught adds another 8 spins. The Golden Fish multiplier is retained throughout the bonus and applies to fish prizes caught, again with up to four Golden Fish counting toward it.
