Golden Catch Slot by Big Time Gaming

A Boat drifting above the grid is the thing to watch. Each spin or reaction, one may turn up over reels 2 to 5, and every Boat present pays a Fish Bonus Prize, a random cash sum. What makes it odd is how that sum gets sized: it reads how many symbols are showing on the reel below before anything reacts. A reel packed with 6 or 7 symbols pays up to the stake and no further, 4 or 5 symbols pays up to 3x, but a squat reel showing only 2 or 3 symbols can pay up to 500x. So the short reels are the ones you want a Boat sitting over. Golden Boats do the same job with every Fish Prize multiplied by ten, though only in the base game.

And the Boats move. After each reaction the Boat above reel 2 is taken off and the rest slide one reel to the left, so a single Boat can travel across the board collecting as it drifts. No Boat above the reels, no prize at all. Underneath sits a reacting Megaways board with up to 117,649 ways: winning combinations clear out, fresh symbols drop from above, and it keeps paying while wins keep landing. Full Reel Wilds fill a whole column and cover the paying symbols.

Three or more Scatters open 10 free spins, with 2 more for each Scatter past the third, and the same count retriggers. This is where things escalate. Every new Boat lifts a Boat Multiplier, and during the free spins your Fish Prizes are multiplied by all the Boat Multipliers on display at once, stacking catch on catch. The biggest payouts live in that loop.

Two side doors lead into the bonus too. Win 100x or more and you can trade 100x of it for the 10 spins outright; win between 25x and 100x and you can gamble the whole win on a green-and-red wheel for a shot at them instead. Prefer not to wait? The feature buys in for 100x, with Feature Drop symbols shaving that price down. It all plays out on a coastal English fishing scene split at the waterline, red-roofed houses climbing a green cliff under a ruined abbey above, a sunlit teal sea with drifting fish and a half-sunk wooden wreck below.
