Meet Bazza McReel, a Coral Sea legend and the only person you want aboard your boat if you’re down under, chasing the fabled Black Marlin in Epic Fish: Marlin Madness,

Epic Fish: Marlin Madness is a 3-high, 5-reel slot with 10 paylines, packed with features including an engaging blend of collection mechanics and a progressive Free Spins Bonus round that activates different features the further you progress. At the heart of the experience is the Fish Collection feature, where every Wild on screen collects visible Fish symbols, instantly adding their values to the total win.

Randomly triggered in the base game, Shark Attack sees a hungry predator devour low-paying symbols and replace them with Fish, which are then collected by the Fisherman Wild.

The Free Spins journey evolves through three escalating modes, each tracked by a Wild Meter. Collecting 6 and then 12 Wilds not only extends the Free Spins session but also unlocks powerful upgrades, including the Nudge Up and Hooked features. These mechanics increase the chances of landing the elusive Black Marlin, whose multiplier values can weigh in at a hefty 5000x.

For players seeking instant action, the Buy Feature offers direct access to Bonus rounds, while the Extra Bet option enhances the base game by adding an extra row and significantly boosting the chance to trigger Fish Collection.

To ensure maximum market reach, the game will be available in four RTP versions: 96%, 94%, 92%, and 84%.
