Fat Fish Festival takes place in an underwater world full of color, bubbles, lights, cartoon fish and floating treasure chests. The background shows a deep blue ocean with animated elements that give the feeling of being in a real underwater fishing festival. The reels are decorated with aquatic elements, and symbols range from fishing tools, colored fish, even characters related to the theme.
The background music is cheerful and festive, accompanied by sound effects that imitate splashes, bells and sounds of jumping fish. Each special feature activation is animated with smooth transitions and visual effects that reinforce the feeling of participating in a unique event.
The golden fish symbol works as a wild (wild), meaning it can substitute for any other regular game symbol (except the fisherman’s symbol and fish symbols with cash prizes). Thanks to this, it can help you complete winning combinations that would not otherwise be formed. In addition to its substitution function, this symbol also offers prizes on its own: if you manage to line up 3, 4 or 5 wilds on a payline, you can win 1x, 2x or 10x your total bet respectively.
The fisherman acts as the scatter symbol and has a central role in activating special features. This symbol can appear on any reel, and when it does, try to open one of the five bonus chests that are floating over the reels. Each chest unlocks a separate special feature within the so-called Electric Bonus. In addition, if a single spin appears five fishermen in any position, the game automatically awards the maximum win of 6,000x the total bet, without the need to activate any additional feature. It is an exciting and direct way to reach the jackpot
This is the star feature of Fat Fish Festival. The Electric Bonus is triggered when one or more bonus chests are opened by the fisherman symbol. Each reel has an associated chest, and each offers a different type of bonus:
Reel chest 1: Awards 10 free spins with an initial multiplier of 2x, which can progressively increase up to 5x as the feature progresses.
Reel Chest 2: Awards 10 free spins, where each fish symbol collected during the feature receives a fixed bonus value.
Reel 3 Chest (Golden Chest): It is the most valuable and offers 19 free spins with all modifiers active at the same time, including symbol upgrades, multipliers and fixed values. There is also a possibility to upgrade the values of the modifiers before the round starts, which can trigger the payout potential.
Reel Chest 4: Awards 10 free spins where low value symbols turn into medium or high value symbols, increasing the chances of big combinations.
Reel 5 Chest: Offers 10 free spins with respins: when a fish symbol or modifier appears, it is locked in place and an auto-respin feature is activated which can significantly extend the duration of the round and increase the winnings.
