Fisherman
The game features a 5x5 reel grid with several locked positions. Whenever a Scatter symbol lands, it unlocks the positions on its respective reel, activating only those symbols. Fish Trophy and Big Berta symbols come with random multiplier values, which can be obtained during the Kill N’ Grill Wild Fishing feature in any mode.
Each reel has locked Enhancer Cell positions at the top and bottom. When these are triggered open, they may reveal symbols like Fisherman Wild, Big Berta, ×Ways, or regular paying symbols.
In the base game, triggering the feature requires landing a golden Fisherman Wild in the opened enhancer cells. In any Free Spin mode, a Fisherman Wild landing on any open reel position triggers the feature. During the feature, multiplier values from collected Fish Trophy symbols are totaled and then multiplied by the bet, further enhancing symbol payouts if applicable.
Landing 3 Scatters triggers Lunker Spins, unlocking 6 enhancer cells and awarding 8 Free Spins. 4 Scatters trigger Haw Spins, unlocking 8 enhancer cells and awarding 9 Free Spins. 5 Scatters trigger Honey Hole Spins, unlocking 10 enhancer cells and awarding 10 Free Spins. Additionally, landing an extra Scatter during Lunker or Hawg Spins unlocks 2 enhancer cells and grants 1 additional Free Spin.
Troll Levels (2x, 3x, 10x) are exclusive to Free Spin mode. The Troll level increases with every 4th Fishman Wild collected, awarding +2 spins. In addition to the Kill N’ Grill Wild Fishing features in the main game, the collected Fish Trophy values are multiplied by the Troll level during Free Spin modes.
