Gameplay & Bonus Features

Nolimit City’s Catfish Hunters is a 5-reel, 3-row online slot featuring 243 ways to win, where payouts will be awarded when 3 or more matching symbols connect from left to right. Betting options start at a minimum of €0.10 a spin, reaching a maximum of €100, whilst the slot comes with a below-average RTP of 96.03%.

The game’s core mechanic revolves around fish symbols and electrical frames. At the start of each spin, one or more frames appear in random positions across the grid. If a frame lands on a fish symbol, it instantly awards that fish’s value, and at the same time, all remaining fish values on the reels are doubled.

This creates a growing global multiplier effect, where each successful Fish hit increases the potential of the next one. The multiplier can build rapidly across a spin, reaching up to 1024x, with Fish values ranging from smaller amounts up to much larger prizes.

XWays & Impostor Wilds

Alongside the Fish system, the game introduces XWays symbols, which act as dynamic placeholders. When they land, they transform into another symbol, either expanding into regular symbols or turning into a single Fish or Wild. If multiple XWays appear on the same spin, they will all reveal the same symbol, often helping to form larger wins.

Impostor Wilds add another layer of unpredictability. When they land, they transform into one of several different wild types, each bringing its own effect. Some boost the global Fish multiplier, while others add additional electrical frames or convert symbols on the grid into fish. Depending on which version appears, they can either increase the value of existing fish or help flood the reels with new ones.

Bonus Spins

The bonus is triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols, with stronger versions unlocked by landing four or five. Each version awards a set number of free spins, starting with Dark Water Spins and progressing into Deep Water and Overcharged Spins.

During these features, the global Fish multiplier carries over from the base game but reduces slightly with each new spin, never dropping below 1x. At the same time, the bonus introduces upgrade mechanics that enhance the gameplay. These can include extra spins, improved XWays behaviour that favours fish and wilds, or additional electrical frames placed onto the grid.

Higher-tier bonus rounds simply stack more of these upgrades together, making it easier to build larger multipliers and create more valuable Fish combinations as the feature progresses.

Bonus Buy/Enhanced Bets

The game includes several optional boosts that adjust how the core mechanics play out. Bonus Booster increases the bet to 3x and guarantees a bonus symbol on reel two, improving the chances of triggering free spins.

Grand Catch and Legend Catch are more feature-focused options. Grand Catch (90x bet) guarantees at least one Impostor Wild while limiting Fish values to 10x, 20x, and 100x. Legend Catch (2000x bet) guarantees at least two Impostor Wilds and restricts Fish symbols to the highest 100x values.

There are also multiplier-based boosts. Fishy Spins, Fishier Spins, and Fishiest Spins increase the starting global Fish multiplier to 8x, 128x, and 1024x, respectively, giving spins a much stronger starting point for building wins.

An Extra Spin option may also appear after a round if the cost is equal to or less than the previous win. This spin carries over both the electrical frames and the current global fish multiplier, although bonus symbols cannot land during this additional spin.

Theme & Design

I think there are going to be lots of players out there who will openly say that Catfish Hunters is not some of Nolimit City’s best work, and I’d have to agree that it doesn’t really have a premium feel to it like some of their headline games. However, that’s not to say there isn’t some enjoyment to be had here, and if you’ve liked playing any of their Duck Hunters slots or Ugliest Catch, you’ll see a resemblance in this release with the overall design of the game.
