Game Overview

Deadliest Catch is a grid-based game where players attempt to match numbers and utilize special features to complete “Slingos” (winning lines) and trigger bonus rounds. The objective is to complete as many Slingos as possible and engage with different bonus features for potential prize winnings.

Basic Gameplay Instructions

• Players select their stake and press the “Spin” button to begin the game.
• Each game provides 11 standard spins to match numbers on the grid with those on the reel.
• Matched numbers are marked on the grid.
• Completing three or more Slingos awards cash prizes, with additional rewards for further Slingos.
• The location of numbers is fixed on the grid for each game.

Symbols and Features

• Wilds: Allow marking any number in the corresponding column above.
• Super Wilds: Allow marking any number anywhere on the grid.
• Free Spin Symbol: Adds an additional spin to the current game.
• Bonus Crabs: Are collected and can grant extra turns during feature games.
• Scatter Bonus: Three or more wild and/or super wild symbols trigger a scatter win, multiplying the starting stake (3 scatters = x1, 4 scatters = x3, 5 scatters = x50).

Bonus Features

Crab Hunt Bonus Feature

• Triggered by completing 8 or 12 Slingos.
• Players receive 7 picks to start, plus 1 additional pick per Bonus Crab (up to 19 total picks).
• Players select a captain and a fishing ground to start.
• Each selected square contains between 1 and 20 crabs (1x to 20x starting stake per square).
• After all picks, any missed crabs are revealed.

Night Fishing (Crab Hunt)

• Triggered by 12 Slingos.
• Each square contains higher prize values (min 5x, max 500x starting stake per square).

Crab Fishing Bonus Feature

• Triggered by completing 7 or 10 Slingos.
• Players receive 5 spins to start, plus 1 spin for each Bonus Crab, up to a maximum of 17 spins.
• Players select a ship to begin.
• The ship moves on a map, with each step paying a set amount (min 0.1x, max 2.5x starting stake per step).
• Crab and storm symbols can move on the map; collecting crabs increases winnings, while storms multiply current bonus feature winnings by x2 or x3 (not applied to future winnings).

Night Fishing (Crab Fishing)

• Triggered by 10 Slingos.
• Each step pays higher amounts (min 1x, max 30x starting stake).

Crab Grab Bonus Feature

• Triggered by completing 6 or 9 Slingos.
• Players receive 4 picks to start, plus 1 pick for every Bonus Crab (up to 16 total picks).
• Selecting a “Level Up” symbol advances to a new round with higher prizes, retaining the last pick prize.
• Minimum prize per pick is 0.2x, maximum 5x starting stake. Level Up round: min 1x, max 25x starting stake.

Night Fishing (Crab Grab)

• Higher prizes: min 1x, max 50x per pick. If advanced via Level Up, min 5x, max 100x per pick. Up to 12 Bonus Crab picks.

Win Lines

• There are 12 possible Slingo lines and 11 awards on the pay ladder.
• The last unmarked number on the grid will always ensure at least 2 winning lines.
• Win lines can appear horizontally, vertically, and diagonally.

Ending the Game

• The game displays potential winnings for the next extra spin, along with required numbers.
• Players can choose to “Collect” winnings at the current prize level to end the game.

Extra Spins

• Extra spins are available after each initial game.
• The price of each spin depends on the grid state and the potential prizes, often exceeding the base stake.
• The price for the next spin is displayed on the Spin button.
• Players can set controls to limit the number, price, and cumulative stake/loss of extra spins. The game automatically ends if any set limit is reached.
• The game will automatically complete unfinished games three hours after launch, using random selections for any remaining choices. Winnings will be automatically credited.

Strategy

• The recommended strategy is to use Wilds and Super Wilds on positions that move the player closer to completing a Slingo.
• Preference is given to positions part of the most possible win lines; e.g., the central square, as it is part of a horizontal, vertical, and two diagonal lines.
• If multiple positions are equally optimal, a random choice is made.
• Please note that no strategy can result in a win, as this game is random, using a Random Number Generator.

General Rules

• All symbols can appear on all reels.
• The RTP is shown in-game.
• Malfunction voids all pays and plays.
• In extra spins, some prizes may require the use of Super Wilds.

Player Controls

• Parameters such as the number of extra spins, maximum single game stake, maximum loss, and extra spin price can all be set in the controls menu.
• The game enforces these settings and ends if any set limit is reached.
