How the game works

Base game

Spins occur on a 5×3 grid with 10 paylines. Exactly two Scatters can trigger helper effects that attempt to bring in a third Scatter: a respin-nudge (reels with Scatters step down while others respin) or a hook animation that can pull a Scatter into view. Money symbols (fish) may land but are only collected during Free Spins when a Fisherman Wild is present. Random features can intervene depending on the combination of Fishermen and Money symbols in view.

Free Spins

Landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatters awards 15, 20, or 25 Free Spins respectively. During the bonus, two Fisherman Wilds can appear—Blue and Red. Each collects all Money symbols in view and progresses its own color meter toward retriggers and higher multipliers. When 4, 8, and 12 Fishermen of a given color have been collected, the round awards additional spins and upgrades the color-specific money multiplier.

Collection level Threshold (per color) Extra spins Money multiplier (per color)
Level 14 Fishermen+10×2
Level 28 Fishermen+10×3
Level 312 Fishermen+10×10

Super Free Spins (Double Down Deluxe)

In the purchased Super Free Spins mode, level-ups occur every 3 Fishermen of a color instead of 4, following the same sequence of +10 extra spins and money multipliers (×2, ×3, ×10). Both color meters can progress independently; the feature is considered maxed when both reach their third level.

Internal state model (overview)

Internally, the game tracks state variables such as spin mode (base or free spins), remaining free spins, the number of Blue and Red Fishermen collected, level progression for each color, current money multipliers, and the presence of Money symbols or Fishermen in view. Transitions formalize when helper features may occur (e.g., with two Scatters), when collections and multipliers apply during Free Spins, and how retriggers add spins and upgrade levels. Exact RNG weightings are proprietary and not disclosed.
