Game Overview
Provider Wazdan Games is back with another uniquely styled slot game that is all about the main bonus game and little else. That said, Mighty Fish™: Blue Marlin is different to many of the developer’s recent releases by way of a base game that does let you pick up some wins along the way. Interested to learn more? Then let me take you through what this 5-reel, 3-row, and 0-payline (yes, you read that right), variable variance and 96.18% video slot has to offer.
While you can pick up a win here and there during the base game thanks to Cash Out frames that can collect Cash and Jackpot symbols, the main reason to spin is to trigger a free spins bonus with collector symbols that collect up values and payout at the end. The more collectors that land, and the more cash symbols and, even better, Mini, Minor, Major, or Mega jackpots collected, the more you’ll win.
Sometimes, it’s best just to try a slot for yourself to see if it’s something you’d enjoy. However, rather than wagering your real cash doing so, why not just play the below Mighty Fish™: Blue Marlin slot demo instead?
Mighty Fish™ Blue Marlin Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
You have to credit Wazdan for wanting to create slot games that are nothing like anything else you’ll find in the industry – but sometimes, if you stray too far from what people are used to, your work will split opinions. I know people who love Wazdan titles like 25 Coins™, 9 Coins™ 1000 Edition, and 9 Burning Stars™ for the different gameplay offered, while others hate them with a passion.
While I’d typically go through a slots paytable with a fine tooth comb in this section, as there are no regular symbols on the Mighty Fish™: Blue Marlin slot, that’s clearly not going to be possible. There are bonus symbols, however, so instead, let’s take a look at what they are and how they work.
- Cash Symbols: These will have a cash prize value of between 1x and 10x the stake.
- Jackpot Symbols: There are four fixed jackpot symbols that can land on the reels – the Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega which are worth 20x, 50x, 100x, and 200x, respectively.
- Collector Symbols: These Blue Marlin symbols can only land on the horizontal reel above the main reels. They will have a countdown value of between 1 and 10, which determines how many spins they’ll remain in place. On each spin, they will collect the values of all Cash and Jackpot symbols that land on the reel below them.
The betting range when playing the Mighty Fish™: Blue Marlin slot demo is €0.20 to €10,000.00, but the top end of that range will probably be lower at the online casino you’re playing at.
Mighty Fish™ Blue Marlin Slot Base Game
You’ll only win the values of the above symbols one of two ways – via two different Cash Out features during the base game or once the free spins feature is triggered.
Cashout Features
On any spin, the Cash Out or Trawler Cash Out frames can appear in random positions on the reels, and when they do, they will have a countdown value of up to 15 spins, which reduces by one with every spin. Once the timer runs out on a Cash Out symbol, any Cash or Jackpot symbol within the frame is paid out, while the same happens to any symbols on the reel directly above a Trawler Cash Out frame.
Volatility Levels
Wazdan has brought back the ability to choose the variance you want to spin at. Using the Volatility Levels (represented by Chilli’s), you can select between low, medium, or high volatility spins.
Gamble
After any win, you can opt to gamble what you’ve won in an attempt to double it up to 7 times. It’s a 50/50 game that requires you to choose between green and red. If you guess correctly, you double your winnings, and should you guess wrong, all your previous winnings go down the pan.
Mighty Fish™ Blue Marlin Slot Bonus Features
While the two Cash Out frames will bring you a few wins from time to time, as you might know with many similar Wazdan titles, it is the bonus game that will provide your best chance of securing payouts. You’ll trigger the free spins bonus game once three or more scatter symbols land anywhere in view on the same spin.
Free Spins Feature
Once triggered, you’ll receive 10, 20, or 30 free spins depending on whether there were 3, 4, or 5 triggering scatter symbols, respectively. How much you win during this bonus game is down to how many Collector symbols land on the horizontal reel above the main reels and how much they collect for the duration of the free spins bonus. When they appear on the horizontal reel, they will have a countdown value, which represents how many spins they will collect, as well as the values of symbols that land on the reel below them. At the end of the feature, you win the values collected by all Collector symbols.
There are also other symbols that can land on the reels that will affect the Collector Symbols:
- Multiplier Symbols: Will multiply the value of the Collector symbol above by 2x to 10x.
- Countdown Booster Symbols: Will increase the countdown time of the Collector symbol above by 3.
- Collect to Infinity™ Symbols: Will change the countdown time of the symbol above to infinite – meaning it will continue to collect cash and jackpot values on every spin until the end of the bonus.
Once you run out of free spins, you receive the combined values of the Collector symbols on the horizontal reel.
Chance Level
To the left of the reels, you’ll notice a Chance Level meter, which, as standard, is switched off. You can choose to pay 2x, 4x, or 6x your stake to spin with 2x, 4x, or 6x the chance of triggering the free spins bonus game.
Bonus Buy
If you’d rather skip the base game altogether, you can choose one of the following buy bonus features, which cost a multiplier of your current stake:
- 10 Free Spins with 1 Marlin Collector Symbol: 50x
- 10 Free Spins with 2 Marlin Collectors: 100x
- 20 Free Spins with 2 Marlin Collectors: 200x
- 20 Free Spins with 2 Marlin Collectors (one infinite): 400x
- 30 Free Spins with 2 Infinite Marlin Collectors: 800x
Pros
- Well presented, even if the theme has been done a million times before.
- The Free spins bonus offers plenty of winning potential.
Cons
- I’m not sure we needed another Egyptian-themed slot - but I guess they sell!
Mighty Fish™ Blue Marlin Slot Review Final Thoughts
I’ve said this before in other reviews, but these Wazdan titles that offer barely anything in the way of a base game, or in some cases no base game at all, are very marmite - by that, I mean you either love it or hate it. Which side of the fence do you fall? If you're undecided, make sure you give the demo a go.
