How To Play Eric’s Big Catch Mobile Slot
It’s time to go fishing Viking style in the Eric’s Big Catch slot from StakeLogic, where you’ll find up to 4,000x bet wins waiting to be caught.
The Eric’s Big Catch mobile slot is a standard 5×3 reel game with medium to high volatility and 20 paylines. It features Money Symbols, Free Spisn with Walking Wilds and Multipliers, a good 95.99% RTP and the opportunity to activate a SuperStake.
Open up this essentially Viking-Themed Fishing slot, and you’ll find spears, fishing rods, lobster pots and hooks as the high-paying symbols mixed in with lower-paying A – 10 symbols and a few fishy symbols.
At first glance, you might mistake it for the Big Bass Bonanza slot from Reel Kingdom, with the Fish Symbols coming with money values and the general look and feel.
However, this video slot hides a few other features that make it its own game, inspired by the previous fishing slots.
Walking Wilds, Multipliers & Money Symbols
Like many of the Reel Kingdom slots, StakeLogic has chosen to put most of the action into the free spins bonus feature.
There are no Wilds in the base game, and the Money Symbols don’t payout in the base game either, which gives you fewer chances of creating some good base game wins. However, the free spins do tend to trigger often, and that’s good as it’s where you’ll get the biggest wins of the game.
Eric The Wild is now active, and when he lands not only collects all the Money Symbols currently on screen but also can add up to 10x multiplier randomly to his net.
He’ll also walk to the left, giving you a respin and collecting more money symbols as he goes increasing your odds of some big wins.
And by big wins, we mean we’ve experienced over 540x our bet thanks to the Walking Wilds and his Multipliers.
To SuperStake or not SuperStake
For double your current bet, you can turn on the Super Stake which apparently will increase your odds of creating bigger win combinations by how much is undefined.
Is it worth it? Maybe, but remember, when you trigger the free spins bonus, you’ll be playing your spins at the bet level without the Super Stake turned on, so you won’t get as big a win as you might think.
However, with Eric’s Big Catch slot having a capped 4,000x maximum win, it might pay out often, but it’s not as big as the likes of the Big Bass Amazon Xtreme slot it’s competing against.
