Fish Eye: Slot Review and Free Play Demo

Fish Eye Review

The Nile overflows between May and August every year due to the monsoon, and this seems to be the setting for this incongruent mix between a fishing and ancient Egypt release. The retro grid is submerged below the surface, with Egyptian artifacts floating around against the Pyramids of Giza backdrop. Reel Kingdom has exhausted their Big Bass Bonanza range to the limit, and it’s refreshing to get such an unusual mix of popular motifs baked into the same game.

Despite the strange mix of fish and Egypt, which you will get used to after a while, this is a highly interesting and solid release that’s well worth checking out. The fish collect system is amped up by multipliers up to x2,000 in the base game, making it potentially far more lucrative than most competitor installments. You get more valuable fish in the bonus round, as well as an eliminator system, and the max win is a solid 10,000x your stake.

Fish Eye Slot Features

The Ante Bet costs 50% more per spin, but it gives you extra scatter symbols added to the reel strips. This increases your bonus round chances, but no specific stats are provided regarding this. The premium symbols pay between 50 and 200 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and there are no wild symbols that can help you out in this game.

The Fish Money symbols come with random cash prize values of 0.1x-0.5x, 1x, 2x, 5x, 10x, 50x, or 100x your stake in the base game. You need at least 4 fish money symbols in view to collect their values, and landing more than 4 activates a fish prize multiplier. You get an x2, x5, x10, x20, x30, x50, x100, x500, x1,000, x1,500, or x2,000 multiplier boost when you land 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 fish money symbols, respectively.

The Bonus Round triggers from 3, 4, or 5 scatters in view, and this awards 10, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively. The fish money symbols come with prize values of 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, 200x, 500x, or 1,000x your stake in the bonus round, and the multiplier system is not active. You also need at least one Collector symbol in view to collect the fish prizes, and Collectors are collected in the meter on the left. Every 4th Collector symbol awards +10 extra spins.

The multiplier trail above the grid has been replaced by a fish money symbol trail, and the Remover symbol removes the lowest fish money symbol each time it hits. In addition, you get +1 extra spin per Remover that lands, and landing 2 Removers at the same time gives you +3 extra spins. You can get random fish symbols if there are collectors present without any fish, and non-UK players can use the Buy Free Spins button to purchase the feature for 100x the stake.

The 200 Spins Fish Eye Slot Experience

Nothing exciting happened for us in the base game, and after a near-miss scatter teaser we decided to buy the bonus round. It triggers at 1:20 into the 2:47-minute highlights video, and we got the minimum of 3 triggering scatters. You can see for yourself how it all played out by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

We have to say that mixing together the popular fishing theme with the equally popular Egypt motif works remarkably well. Fish Eye comes across as a hybrid between Eye of Horus and Big Bass Bonanza, and it will definitely make a splash. Reel Kingdom already dominates the fishing slot genre, so they can afford to be experimental and mix things up. This is something we really appreciate, and it spices up the whole experience in a refreshing way.

The base game looks almost more lucrative than the bonus round, at least on paper, but getting to those massive fish prize multipliers is far from easy. We almost wish you didn’t need the collector symbol in the feature, but all is forgiven when you win +10 extra spins a few times. The 10,000x potential tops this release off as a very strong installment in the fishing slot genre, and we hope to see more incongruent mix-ups like this in the future.
