Plenty O’ Fish (Blueprint) Slot Demo & Review

When I first saw the name of the game I’ll be reviewing today, I thought that a certain well known online dating platform had decided to expand into the slot scene. Fortunately, that turned out not to be the case, and we’ll be aiming to reel in a net full of winnings rather than jumping in at the desperate end of the dating pool in this Blueprint Gaming slots release. It’s called Plenty O’ Fish, and it’s a high volatility, six-reel game with an RTP of 94% and a handsome potential maximum win of 50,000x.

We have another leprechaun inspired slot on our hands, only this time, the rainbow’s end takes us below the water’s surface. This aquatic background scene is teeming with pondlife, and the fishing theme continues on the games 6×4 grid, where wins are achieved by matching symbols across any of the 4,096 available payways or by landing fish cash values in conjunction with the leprechaun character. Above the reels, a chest can be seen, which can randomly award game modifiers, and on either side of that are jackpot values reaching as high as 2,500x, which can be collected in the same manner as cash symbols. Landing three or more scatter symbols will trigger the bonus feature, where up to 25 free spins are on offer, and modifiers will activate with more frequency.

The aspect of this slot that I’ve found most interesting so far is the way that upgrades awarded from the chest in the base game are held and stacked, awaiting the activation of the cash collect feature, but will transfer across to the bonus game if it is triggered beforehand, and vice versa. This is great to see, as it ensures they never go to waste. Check it out for yourself on the Plenty O’ Fish demo slot, which is free to play below.

This is not the first time that the world of leprechauns and fishing have collided to produce a slot title, and the two themes complement each other rather well; the local pond is a well-known hangout spot of the little green fella, after all. Provider Gameburger Studios has a couple of enjoyable games featuring an Irish angler doing his thing in Fishin Pots of Gold slot and its sequel, Fishin Bigger Pots of Gold. Once you’re done taking those for a spin, feel free to browse our vast catalogue of free Irish slots and associated reviews, where you’ll be sure to find one that suits you. Next up, we’ll be ditching the waders and rod before donning our diving gear and jumping headfirst into the deep end of Plenty O’ Fish in order to explore its features in greater detail.

Matching a winning combination of six will award the top payout value for each symbol on the paytable. The Pot of Gold sits at the top, returning 5x the total stake for each lot of six. The Fishing Reel and Tackle Box come next, weighing in at 2.5x, whilst the Lure and Old Boot follow those and are each worth 2x. The non premium symbols featured are the often-utilised royals, with the Ace and King both paying 1.5x, the Queen and Jack sharing returns of 1.2x, and finally, the Ten, awarding 1x bet for a six of a kind win.

Whether it’s a wiggly worm or shimmering lure, choosing the right type of bait is as essential when fishing as a stake selection is when playing slots. On Plenty O’ Fish, the options begin at a low of €0.10 and rise to a maximum of €10.00. This top end is not as high as often seen in other games, but an extensive range of bets is available between the extremes on offer, which should ensure that all those other than high rollers are appropriately catered for here.


Plenty O’ Fish Slot Base Game

Regarding the game mechanics, we have a 6×4 gaming grid with 4,096 payways to work with. Winning combinations are formed by matching corresponding symbols across consecutive reels, from left to right, commencing on the leftmost reel. Interestingly, all five premium symbols will provide a small return for matching just two symbols, whilst the non-premiums require the usual three. The wild symbol appears on reels 2-6 and will substitute for any pay table symbol.


Cash Collect

Cash value symbols can land in any grid position on any spin, whilst the cash collect fisherman, depicted as a leprechaun, can only appear on reels 1 and 6. If the fisherman lands in conjunction with one or more cash values, he will collect them, and their total accumulated value will be paid as a win. It is also possible for cash value symbols to display one of four jackpot amounts, the Mini (15x), Minor (25x), Major (250x), and the Mega (2,500x), and any of these that land will be collected by the fisherman in the same fashion.


Plenty O’ Fish Bonus

A treasure chest can be seen displayed above the main reels. Any gold coin symbol that lands on the grid during any spin will be placed into this chest and may randomly trigger it to award one of five different modifiers. Three of these modifier types are held in place at the bottom of the reels, to be used once the next cash collect feature is activated, whilst the final two awards an instant prize. If the bonus game is triggered beforehand, any unused modifiers will be carried over to the bonus to be used there. The modifiers available are as follows:

  • Boost: The value of all cash value symbols present is boosted when collected by a fisherman.
  • Re-spin: Any cash values present when the fisherman lands will stick in place whilst the reels spin again, offering the chance for further cash values to land.
  • Gold Collect: The fisherman will collect any cash values present multiple times.
  • Jackpot: Instantly activates the jackpot wheel feature, where one of the four jackpot values will randomly be awarded.
  • Bonus: Instantly triggers the free spins bonus.

The free spins bonus can be won directly from the treasure chest or by landing three or more scatters on any single spin. Any unused modifiers from the base game are transferred across to the bonus game. The number of scatters involved in the trigger will dictate the number of starting spins, as detailed below:

  • 3 scatters: 10 free spins.
  • 4 scatters: 15 free spins.
  • 5 scatters: 20 free spins.
  • 6 scatters: 25 free spins

Free Spins

During this feature, any gold coin that lands is guaranteed to activate the treasure chest, awarding a modifier, and any modifiers that remain unused at the end of the bonus are carried across to the base game. In this feature, the available modifiers stay the same, except the instant bonus modifier, which has been replaced by the spins modifier, which will award up to five additional free spins.


Pros

  • Max win of 50,000x.
  • Modifiers move between base and bonus games.
  • Payways rather than fixed win lines.

Cons

  • Low RTP.
  • Low max stake.
  • No bonus buy.

Plenty O' Fish Slot Review Final Thoughts

It’s another leprechaun themed game, which is fine but not exactly exciting. However, this particular Irish inspired effort does have a lot going for it, with the huge potential maximum win of 50,000x, its 4,096 payways, the collection feature and associated modifiers, and the potential to win instant jackpot amounts. I also liked how collected modifiers move between the base and bonus games; that’s a nice touch. The major downsides are the low RTP of 94% and the small top stake option of just €10.00, but putting those things to one side, this is a very solid slot mixing the popular Irish and fishing slots genres.
