Game Outline

The game is played on 6 reels and 5 rows. A winning combination is formed when at least 5 connecting and matching symbols land anywhere on the grid, horizontally or vertically. After the win, the winning symbols are removed from the screen and new symbols replace them, which can create multiple wins during a single spin. The game also features a Wild symbol, which substitutes for other symbols to form winning combinations.

Who is this game for?

Le Fisherman lets players enjoy a relaxing holiday atmosphere, complete with laid-back music and a scenic mountain lake backdrop. The game's Golden Tiles and special symbols add action to the gameplay while increasing the potential for winning combinations. Thanks to its medium volatility, wins can occur fairly regularly, although you may also encounter longer losing streaks. Payouts can range from smaller wins to more substantial ones.

Game Elements

One of the game's standout features is its Golden Squares. Winning combinations leave behind Golden Squares, and when a Rainbow symbol lands on the grid, it triggers special bonus features on them.

Golden Squares

Whenever a Rainbow symbol lands on the reels, it activates all Golden Squares, revealing one of the following coin values or special symbols. If an Epic Rainbow symbol appears, it activates a special symbol on every position on the grid, regardless of whether the square is golden or not.

Coins and their Bet Multipliers:

• Bronze: 0.2x, 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x
• Silver: 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x
• Gold: 25x, 50x, 100x
• Diamond: 150x, 250x, 500x

Special symbols:

• Green Clover: Applies a multiplier of x2, x3, x4, x5, x10, or x20 to adjacent Coins or Bucket symbols.
• Golden Clover: Applies a multiplier of x2, x3, x4, x5, x10, or x20 to all Coins and Bucket symbols on the grid.
• Bucket: Collects all Coins and Bucket symbols within the adjacent 3x3 area and stores their total value. If a Golden Square is collected, it reveals a new special symbol after the Bucket has collected the symbol on that tile.
• Global Bucket: Functions like the Bucket symbol but collects Coins and Bucket symbols from the entire grid instead of just a 3x3 area. If it collects a Golden Square, that tile reveals a new special symbol after the collection is complete.

The special symbols are activated in the following order: Clovers, Buckets, and Global Buckets. Once all Coins and Bucket symbols have been activated, their total value is multiplied by the bet and added to winnings.

On Thin Ice Bonus Game

The bonus is triggered when 3 FS Scatter symbols land on the grid, awarding 10 free spins.

During the free spins, the Big Catch Bar appears above the reels. The bar increases by one lifebuoy for each Scatter symbol collected and levels up every time 5 Scatters have been collected. Each new bar level awards 5 additional free spins.

Depending on the bar level, any Rainbow symbol that appears is transformed into the following bonus symbol:

Level 1: Green Clover

Level 2: Global Bucket

Level 3: Golden Clover

Level 4: Every free spin guarantees either a Rainbow or Epic Rainbow symbol. Rainbow symbols are upgraded into Golden Clover symbols.

Slippery When Wet Bonus Game

The Slippery When Wet bonus is triggered when 4 Scatter symbols land on the grid.

In addition to 10 free spins, all mechanics from the On Thin Ice bonus remain active. Furthermore, Golden Squares stay on the grid throughout the entire bonus.

If an Epic Rainbow symbol appears, only the Golden Squares that were already present before its activation remain on the reels.

Hidden Epic Bonus Game

The Hidden Epic Bonus is triggered when 5 Scatter symbols land on the grid. The player receives 10 free spins, while all mechanics from the Slippery When Wet bonus remain in effect. In addition, the Big Catch Bar starts directly at Level 4 and stays at that level for the entire bonus game.
