Fishin’ Reels: Slot Overview

​

Since its debut in 2014, elements of Reel Time Gaming's iconic Fishin’ Frenzy have manifested in various forms across the gaming landscape. Not only did it undergo a mandatory Megaways transformation, but its bonus game collection system has remained a popular choice among both developers and players. Pragmatic Play, enamored with the concept, has introduced what can be considered Fishin' Frenzy 2.0 – aptly named Fishin' Reels, which retains the beloved gameplay of the original while introducing an additional bonus game.

​

In Fishin' Reels, transparent reels provide a clear view of the underwater scene, where fish gracefully swim, bubbles ascend, and shadows dance on the ocean floor. The water's clarity and the warm sunlight create a tropical sea paradise, reminiscent of an ideal snorkeling spot or a place to catch a few Hogfish for a beachside barbecue. While the base game soundtrack may become monotonous, triggering free spins unleashes the banjo player, injecting wild energy into the music. Although not groundbreaking, Fishin' Reels represents a notable graphical improvement, making it the preferred choice for those seeking a vibrant and cute gaming experience rather than the old-school aesthetics of the original.

​

From a statistical perspective, Fishin' Reels is quite promising. The default RTP is relatively high, standing at 96.5%, a characteristic often associated with Pragmatic Play slots. The game boasts high volatility, earning a 5 out of 5 rating. Players can engage with bets ranging from 10 p/c to $/€100 per spin, utilizing 10 paylines to form winning combinations of three or more matching symbols. Symbols are vibrant and bold, featuring card suit icons, flippers, snorkeling gear, starfish, lobsters, frogs, and a playful fish. The wild symbol, appearing on reels 2, 3, or 4, substitutes for all symbols except bonus, fisherman, or fish money symbols.
