Fishin’ Frenzy Christmas

A Deep Dive into Fishin' Frenzy Christmas: Slot Overview

Imagine the classic picture of a snowy Christmas. Fishing rods and containers filled with fish remnants probably don't come to mind. Yet, this didn't deter the creators from introducing Fishin' Frenzy Christmas , a slot that combines the festive with fishing. While the title leaves little to the imagination, the familiarity often suggests it's inspired by an older version. However, contrary to being a mere replica, Fishin' Frenzy Christmas introduces its own Blueprint Gaming with a unique holiday fishing feature. Fishin\" Frenzy The Big Splash Engage in the experience of Fishin' Frenzy Christmas by setting sail on what feels like the Arctic Sea. To enhance the frosty theme, more icy visuals and Christmas adornments are displayed. For those desiring a warm and cozy Christmas by the fireside, this might not fit the bill. Instead, Fishin' Frenzy Christmas brings a sense of solitude, perfect for those seeking a quiet escape during the holiday.

There are ten standard paying symbols, ranging from 10 to Ace, along with fish (the cash symbols), rings, rods, and pelicans. Matching five royal symbols offers a reward of 5 to 10 times the bet , while high-tier matches pay between 20 to 200 times the bet . Fisherman icons act as wilds, substituting regular symbols, and are exclusive to free spins. Wild symbols equate to pelican payouts if they form their own winning line. RTP value of 95% .

During any spin, each visible fish is accumulated into the fishing net above the reels . Once the net activates, players select a fish , triggering one of several outcomes:

Festive Fishing

Cash Collect - gathers all the visible fish.

• Free spins - 10, 15, 20 spins.
• Cash Streak - initiates a streak spin on fish symbols before collecting all visible fish.
• Extra Fish - adds more fish on the screen, ensuring a fish reel victory.
• Catching 3, 4, or 5 boat scatters during the base game awards 10, 15, or 20 free spins , respectively. Before commencement of these spins, players engage with the Pick A Fish feature . Choosing a fish unveils free spin enhancements:

Free Spins

A Cash Tag can be attached to one of the high-value symbols.

• +Fish – more fish appear on the reels.
• +Fisherman – additional Fisherman symbols populate the reels.
• +Collect – cash values are gathered multiple times.
• Re-Spin – spins are granted for all non-Cash and non-Fisherman symbols until no better win materializes.
• +Games – more free spins are added.
• Within the free spins, the Fisherman symbol is a reel presence. It captures the values of fish and any premium symbols with attached Cash Tags upon appearing simultaneously. Fisherman symbols are also stored upon landing. Collecting 2, 6, or 10 Fisherman icons results in another selection opportunity from the Pick A Fish feature. When 4, 8, or 12 Fisherman icons are amassed, +10 free spins are reactivated, paired with a multiplier of x2, x3, or x10 based on the total collected. This multiplier is applied to the gathered Cash symbol values. Any extra spins play out after the current round concludes.

Fishin' Frenzy Christmas slot - highlighting free spins

Given the enduring appeal of both the Fishin' Frenzy series and holiday-themed slots, it's surprising it took so long for Fishin' Frenzy Christmas to be made available. Now that it's here, it behaves as anticipated, offering few surprises but a couple of fresh elements to explore. Built on the foundation of Fishin' Frenzy The Big Splash, it now includes the Festive Fishing addition alongside minimal festive decoration.

In essence, unless one harbors a strong passion for both fishing and Christmas slots, Fishin' Frenzy Christmas is easy to skip. Some might even roll their eyes at the emergence of yet another fishing-themed slot. While the festive additions offer a mild thrill, they don't introduce groundbreaking elements. Still, the new feature prevents it from being a direct copy of Fishin' Frenzy The Big Splash. Propriety-wise, this slot echoes much of Blueprint Gaming's offerings, with a winning potential up to 2,500x.

Ultimately, this addition to the Fishin' Frenzy lineup presents itself as a mediocre and somewhat unnecessary iteration, apt to leave many players indifferent, as inferred from its name alone.

For all intents and purposes, Fishin’ Frenzy Christmas is essentially a basic reimagining with an added selection feature.
