Innovative German software provider’s latest release sees players to dive into a world of underwater adventure where massive multipliers are waiting to be caught

Load your tackle box, bait your hook and get ready to reel in the catch of the day in Fishin’ The Biggest from Apparat Gaming, the in-demand German software provider’s latest splash hit slot that sees players trawl the sea for free spins and massively multiplied prizes.

Played over five reels, three rows and ten fixed paylines, Fishin’ The Biggest is a highly-volatile title with an outdoor angling theme. Boasting a maximum RTP of 96.23%, the game sees players cast their net in search of maximum wins of 4,500x the bet and can be played from as little as €0.10 per spin.

If they really want to start making waves, players simply need to land three or more scatter symbols in any position to enter the free spins bonus round or use the optional Buy Feature button to access the feature directly. Either way, they’ll be granted ten, 15 or 20 free games depending on the number of triggering scatters and all fish symbols will then be added to a special collection bar above the reels that can unlock greater rewards as the free spins round progresses.

For every 40 fish they collect, players will receive an extra ten free spins and an increasing prize multiplier; and the fact that fish contribute whether they make a win or not is sure to make every angler’s heart beat faster. Of course, the more starting free spins players receive, the better their chances of extending the feature will be, so the first goal is to reel in as many scatters as possible.

There’s a maximum of 50 free spins in total up for grabs and a massive top multiplier of up to 10x also on the line; and the fisherman who hauls in the catch is needed to fully exploit the ocean’s bounty. Only when he appears do players receive the combined win value of all fish on the reels, and if there are none, he’ll cast out his net and catch new fish so that a win is always guaranteed.

“This month, Apparat Gaming is inviting players to harvest the bounties of the ocean in Fishin’ The Biggest, our exciting new angling-themed slot where reeling in denizens of the deep can earn them free spins, monster multipliers and incredible prizes,” the co-founder and Chief Product Officer for Apparat Gaming, Martin Frindt, said. “Available now to all operators who host Apparat Gaming slots, we’re sure the game will make a big splash with both clients and customers alike.”
