The Fishin’ Frenzy slot is a game that hopefully will float your boat- this is a game that’s themed around that popular pastime- Fishing!
Blueprint are the guys and gals that came up with the likes of the Napoleon slot and that cheeky lad Ted, so we were expecting big things when we loaded this one up.
Fishin’ Frenzy Slot Facts
Fishin’ Frenzy is a 5 reel and 3 Row game from Blueprint Gaming with 10 pay-lines. This is one of their most popular games with an RTP of 96.12%. It’s a medium to high variance game themed on fishing of course.
The game launched in September 2014, so it´s been around for a bit, but it continues to be popular with players and has spawned a few sequels such as Fishin’ Frenzy Fortune Spins. The maximum jackpot is 5000x your bet, quite a fiery game for such an old slot.
Intro
You don’t have to own a fishing rod to earn a bite from this slot game. The game is based on deep sea fishing, judging by the background of the reels which is the deep ocean: just the spot for a crack at landing a big cash prize.
Blueprint are famous for their feature packed games like the Magic Ian slot and Ted. This fishin’ game is more no frills than bells ‘n whistles. But it can pack a punch with that max jackpot if you get lucky.
Above the reels is the game’s logo and a leaping fish. The background music of play can be a little perky at times but you can always turn it down.
Pros and Cons

A classic no-frills traditional game
-
You cannot re-trigger the free spins in the bonus game.
Fishy Fun
The symbols in the game are straight out of the fishing catalogue of course. Look out for the heron, a fishing reel, a life ring, a tackle box and a blue smiling fish which can appear as a small or bigger symbol.
The Ace through ten of the card deck jazzed up in fishing style fonts are the lower value symbols. There’s more colour on this game than most other games we have seen such as the Swipe and Roll slot, so wear your sunglasses!
Special Symbols
The games’ Wild is a fisherman who’s landed a whopper of a fish and this will substitute for all other symbols apart from the Scatter which is the aft quarter of a boat sailing away with “Scatter” on its bow.
It’s a pretty “no-frills” game: a five reel, 3 row and 10 pay lines slot that can be played across all devices.
“Reel” Fun
Fishin’ Frenzy comes with a single bonus feature. You will need to land 3 or more Scatters to get into the feature.
3, 4 or 5 Scatters will get you 10, 15 and 20 free spins respectively.
If you land a Wild and a fish icon at the same time the fisherman catches the different size fish. The bigger the fish that lands on the reels, the higher its prize value. The only downside of this feature is that is can’t be re-triggered.
Summary
Blueprint’s Fishin’ Frenzy is a winner for fans of traditional slots – a straight forward, no frills game with a decent feature with a generous serving of free spins. There are fancier games out there, but Fishing Frenzy continues to be popular with players.
