4ThePlayer and Yggdrasil reel in a winner in 4 Fantastic Fish GigaBlox
This fin-tastic slot, featuring 46,656 ways to win, is the latest iteration in 4ThePlayer’s popular series. It offers players the opportunity to win up to 12,000x the bet through a plethora of features including Money Ways, fishing respins, four giant squid modifiers and the GigaBlox Game Engagement Mechanic (GEM).
Fish symbols have an attached cash value, which is awarded if they form a winning payline. All cash prizes are valued between 0.1x and 50x the player’s bet, with the Money Ways mechanic seeing symbols appearing on the rightmost reels boasting even bigger prizes.
GigaBlox-sized big game fish will also appear on the reels and can pay out if part of a fish symbol win. Big fish are 2×2 in size and pay up to 100x, super fish are 3×3 in size and pay 450x, mega fish are 4×4 in size with a value of 3,000x and ultra fish are 5×5 in size and award 10,000x.
The fishing respins bonus is triggered when three or more respin scatters land. Players collect standard and GigaBlox fish symbols in a classic Hold and Win mechanic, while landing additional scatter symbols will unlock new reels and reset the spin counter.
Four special giant squid features can trigger on any given spin. These can see seaweed symbols reveal all winning symbols, GigaBlox symbols up to 5×5 in size land and icons swapped or shuffled to automatically form a win.
The title is powered by GATI, with Yggdrasil’s state-of-the-art technology enabling partners to employ the preconfigured, regulation-ready, standardised development toolkit to consistently produce cutting-edge content followed by rapid distribution.
Mark McGinley, chief gaming officer at Yggdrasil, said: “4 Fantastic Fish GigaBlox takes the classic fishing genre of games, and elevates it into an exciting, bold take with captivating features and mechanics such as fishing respins and giant squid modifiers.
