Marlin Catch Review
The world of online slots never ceases to surprise us. Marlin Catch is thus a somewhat ironic title, although you get to see plenty of the spear-snouted specimen swim by on either side of the semi-transparent 5x3 grid.
The maritime symbols are simple and cartoonish, and without any fish catching feature there isn’t all that much going on in the base game except regular payouts up to 2,000x your stake. The Bonus Round is the big highlight in other words, and it comes with an innovative sticky wild multiplier streak upgrade system. In addition, the Fisherman Collector is collected, which gives you extra spins and upgrades the global win multiplier according to the Collector trail.
Marlin Catch Slot Features
The 4 premium symbols pay between 10 and 200 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and the bubbly ‘W’ Wild symbol pays the same as the top-tier Lifebuoy symbol. The wild also steps in for all regular pay symbols to help complete winning combos, and symbols, including wilds, tend to land stacked.
You need 3, 4 or 5 Marlin Scatters anywhere in view to trigger the Bonus Round, and this awards 10, 15 or 20 free spins, respectively. Wild symbols are sticky for minimum 1 spin during the feature, and wilds get upgraded with a +1 multiplier if at least one new wild lands on the next spin. The wild multipliers can increase up to x7 this way, and each non-wild spin subtracts 1 multiplier value until the wilds becomes non-sticky if there are no more “multiplier lives” left.
In addition to the above, you can also land the Fisherman Collector symbol in the bonus round, and it’s collected in the Collector Bar you’ll see above the reels. You get extra free spins and upgrade the global win multiplier for every 3 Collector symbol that is collected, and the trail works as follows:
- 3 collected Collectors award +10 free spins and a x2 multiplier.
- 6 collected Collectors award +8 free spins and a x3 multiplier.
- 9 collected Collectors award +6 free spins and a x5 multiplier.
- 12 collected Collectors award +4 free spins and a x10 multiplier.
If you manage to collect 12 Collector Symbols, no more Collectors will land, but the global win multiplier you’ve achieved stays active for the remainder of the feature.
Finally, non-UK players, and anyone eligible, may take advantage of the Bonus Buy feature. You can then purchase 10, 15 or 20 free spins directly, and this will cost you 100, 500 or 1,000 x your stake, respectively. There is also a mystery option that costs 375x your stake.
The 200 Spins Marlin Catch Slot Experience
We grinded along in the base game for a while, but nothing too exciting happened. You can therefore safely skip to the 2-minute mark, if you wish, as this is when the 20 free spins bonus round we purchased starts. You can see for yourself how it all played out by hitting the play button below, and the 200 spins highlights video lasts for 5 minutes and 42 seconds in total.
Review Summary
Once you get over the fact that this is a fishing slot with a Collector symbol that actually doesn’t reel in any cash fish, there is a pretty solid game underneath. The seabed backdrop is nicely done, with animated Marlins swimming by on either side, but we wouldn’t have minded some kind of feature to spice up the rather barebones base game. You get stacked symbols and wilds though, and 2,000x is possible from a single base game spin.
The Fisherman Collector landed quite frequently in the bonus round, and it didn’t seem too hard to advance along the trail. This provides a solid dose of extra spins, which may take you even further along the trail, and the global win multiplier adds to the harder-to-get sticky multiplier wilds. The 25,000x potential is very solid, not least for this genre, and overall this is an unusual, yet highly entertaining, fishing slot with no real fishing going on.
