Epic Fish: Marlin Madness is a 3-high, 5-reel game with 10 lines, which features a FISH COLLECTION feature, SHARK ATTACK and three different FREE SPINS, including BLACK MARLIN, NUDGE UP and HOOKED.
Theoretical payout can be found in-game.
WILD symbol substitutes for all symbols except BONUS symbols and it is present on all reels. During the FISH COLLECTION feature, the WILD symbol also acts as a fisherman and catches all the FISH symbols on the screen when they land at the same time, adding their values to the total win.
3 or more BONUS symbols anywhere on the screen will initiate FREE SPINS. 3 BONUS symbols will award 10 FREE SPINS and trigger the BLACK MARLIN feature, 4 BONUS symbols will award 12 FREE SPINS and trigger the NUDGE UP feature and 5 BONUS symbols will award 14 FREE SPINS and trigger the HOOKED feature. The FREE SPINS will play until there are no Free Spins left and can not be retriggered.
The FISH symbol is a regular paying symbol of the paytable that can also be caught by the WILD symbol during the FISH COLLECTION feature. It has 3 different sizes, each linked to a multiplier value among 1x, 3x, 5x, 8x, 10x, 15x and 25x. The size of the fish increases as the multiplier increases.
If a WILD is on the reels, a SHARK ATTACK can happen! The shark will then eat one or more low symbols and replace them with FISH. The FISHERMAN will then collect the FISH.
In the base game, this feature activates randomly.
No line win is evaluated during the respin.
Every WILD symbol that appears on the screen acts as a fisherman and catches all the FISH symbols on the same screen. Every FISH symbol has a value on it. The values on the fish on the screen are added to the total win for that spin.
3 or more BONUS symbols anywhere on the screen will initiate FREE SPINS. 3 BONUS symbols will award 10 FREE SPINS and trigger the BLACK MARLIN feature, 4 BONUS symbols will award 12 FREE SPINS and trigger the NUDGE UP feature and 5 BONUS symbols will award 14 FREE SPINS and trigger the HOOKED feature. The FREE SPINS will play until there are no Free Spins left and can not be retriggered.
Each FREE SPIN MODE includes the features from the previous modes.
During the FREE SPINS, there is a meter on the top of the reel that collects wild symbols.
For every new wild that lands on the reel, the meter increases by 1. Once the 6th or 12th wild are reached, 2 Free Spin is added, and the Free Spin game can upgrade to add more feature(s).
Each time the BLACK MARLIN lands, fully or partial, it increases the Marlin Multiplier. The BLACK MARLIN needs to land fully for the WILD to collect the multiplier. The increases can come in the range of x30-x45-x60-x75-x100-x125-x150-x175-x200-x250-x2500-x5000. Collecting 6 WILDS will trigger the NUDGE UP feature and give you 2 extra free spin. Collecting 12 WILDS will take you to the HOOKED feature and give you 2 extra free spin.
NUDGE UP feature can be triggered with 4 BONUS symbols directly or with 6 collected wilds in the meter during the Free Spins.
If a BLACK MARLIN lands partly or bellow the reels NUDGE UP is activated and will nudge the BLACK MARLIN up one row. Collecting 6 additional WILDS will take you to the HOOKED feature and give you 2 extra free spin.
HOOKED feature can be triggered with 5 BONUS symbols directly or with 12 collected wilds in the meter during the Free Spins.
If the BLACK MARLIN is fully visible but it’s not caught, it remains sticky for one spin. If that happens, the likelihood of catching it increases.
