Bold Graphics and Lucrative Gameplay
Like the rest of the games part of Yggdrasil’s YG Masters portfolio created by the talented team at Jelly, the new fishing-themed slot has fantastic graphics on display. The amazing details and colorful elements truly make the theme pop up. The game’s innovative fishing mechanic can be activated by a pair of wild fishermen symbols landing on the first two reels. Next, the fisherman starts capturing all fish found on the third reel. They can move across all five reels on the grid and each various multiplier value attached to each fish symbol. The fifth reel, which is the highest paying reel, can reach up to 100x.
Provided three bonus symbols reach the third, fourth or fifth reel, players get to enter free spins mode. The free spins can also be triggered whenever wild symbols pop on the first and second reel, and a scatter symbol reaches the third reel. While still in Free Spins mode, the last three reels can be seen expanding up high with up to six symbols, carrying the potential winning potential of the game to new levels.
Both Jelly and Yggdrasil Are Pleased With the New Game
Jelly’s marketing lead Victoria Newbolt spoke about the increased popularity of “fishing style” slot games which are going “from strength to strength,” further explaining why the new game made perfect sense to them. The new creation allowed them to reintroduce their unique style to this fishing-aficionado audience.
Yggdrasil’s head of product and programs Stuart McCarthy spoke about the new game introducing a “new concept” to their already impressive portfolio that is currently live with operators in 24 different licensed jurisdictions worldwide.
September has been a busy month for Yggdrasil, with the launch of the Voodoo Hex slot together with Peter & Sons and the global launch of the provider’s games with GGPoker worth mentioning.
