Extreme Fishing

Introduction Extreme Fishing Slot

Extreme Fishing is the latest slot which is due for release in the next week from the developers at Lightning Box who are an Australian slot production company who have many excellent free slots in their catalogue such as Re-Spin Racer. Their recent slot Blown Away took on an aquatic theme and this obviously worked as they are back on the water with this latest slot. Players have been waiting for a slot that encompasses the high seas with tough men and women who take on the raging water and whistling winds to pursue their biggest catch ever, and this is exactly what you get in Extreme Fishing. This slot has all the elements that make for a great slot with all the finer details captured. If you are au fait with fishing themes you will remember Fishin’ Frenzy which held the top spot for this theme for many years, however it may just about to be knocked of the top spot with Extreme Fishing as it offers a bonus game, wild and free spins bonus plus a exciting and compelling base game too.

Extreme Fish Game Play and Statistics

Played on a standard slot set up of 5-reels, 3-rows and 25 fixed pay lines this slot awards a win when you land three of the same symbols from left to right. When it comes to placing you bet you can play for just 25p per spin (1p per pay line) and for this there is a return to player which stands at 95.84% but it is worth noting that the variance is high, even so these sound like some decent specifications that will want you to go off on an exciting fishing adventure.

Theme, Design & Symbols

When it comes to playing the slot you can decide how you fish whether this is using your intuition and fishing prowess or simply casting a dragnet the slot will capture all of the matching symbols that grace your 25 pay lines and you will get to have a tremendous amount of fun along the way!
When it comes to the symbols you will not be surprised to see that the majority of these are based upon the creatures of the sea such as starfish, trout, crabs, a strange but rather beautiful fish of the coral plus a portrait of a chief fisherman and the usual high and royal playing card symbols.
Overall, this slot is well made with some video events to make the visuals even more memorable and more fun with every spin. One of the most amazing sights is when you activate a stack of wilds and fortunately the not even the sharks can scare away your catch. The soundtrack is the final piece of the puzzle providing a seaside ambiance with some extra special sound effects.

How to Play Extreme Fish Games Online

Before you spin your reels I would advise you to start by looking at the controls and gaming buttons as Lightning Box Games have their own way of doing things and unless you are au fait with their methods you could be a little confused. On the bar located at the bottom of your screen are the game statistics which include your balance, the last win you have landed and the amount you are betting per spin. To change your bet just choose the amount that you are comfortable playing with using the + or – buttons that are situated in the right-hand corner of your game screen. The bet values on offer start from a minimum of 25p per spin and go up to a maximum of £250 per spin, meaning there is plenty of range to attract all types of player. Choosing to bet the maximum amount will lead to £10 multiplier on each of your rows per win.

There is an auto function which you can select if you want to watch the game play out before you, to do this you need to select the corresponding button and then selecting the amount of spins, make sure that you set the amount you want to bet to ensure you do not miss out on a big win.

Landing the Wins

To create a win in this slot you need to land a minimum of three of the same symbols on a pay line, and as there are 25 pay lines, you can end up landing more than one win. The slot has the opportunity for you to land stack thanks to the wild as it can connect matching symbols over your game board.
The wild comes in the form of Jaws the immense shark and as such this is the most valuable symbol in the slot. Jaws will award you with a win for two or more symbols on a pay line and if you get lucky and land five on a pay line you will pick up a colossal 1,500x your winning bet. The bonus symbol rewards you with 500x your stake for landing five and the angler pays the same for landing five and finally the trout and the bass will pay out 250x your bet for landing five.

Extreme Bonus Features

Extreme Fishing offers some excellent features which can all lead to big wins. The Shark Attack feature is triggered at random where each of the three fish symbols on your reels become wild for the next spin. Next is the free spins bonus which becomes active when you land three, four or five scatter symbols and these will reward you with 10, 20 and 30 free spins, respectively.
The Fishin Bonus feature becomes active when you land five of the swordfish symbols, and you will be awarded with 15 chances to catch the swordfish, and this is one of the most favoured symbols in the slot as it adds to your wins every time the red symbol moves the game arrow down a row. This feature can provide you with some of the biggest win amounts, but you do need to land as many swordfish as you can.

Free Fishing

Personally, I prefer the slots that offer a demo game mode as it means you can really get to grips with the game play, features and the way the slot works before needing to risk any of your own money.

Final Fishy Thoughts

There is no doubt that this slot is a lot of fun to play, the pay table is solid due to the high paying symbols, but it is the bonus features and multiple wilds that create the biggest win. I would rate this slot as a solid 9/10 as it has everything players could want with the win amounts to go with it. I have no qualms recommending this game, so grab your fishing rod and off we go!
