Inside the game

Captured in the studio's own free demo on 11 September 2026. Nothing below is taken from a press release or another site — it is what the game shows when you open it.

The base game — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — The base gameFive reels over four rows, a bamboo-and-vine frame, a turquoise lagoon and a palm tree behind, fishing reels set on the gunwale. The spin on show is already loaded: five Marlins carry their value on a ribbon — €10 at the bottom of reel 1, €2 on reel 2, €40 on reel 4, €4 at the top of reel 5 — and the golden Marlin on reel 3 shows €1K on a red ribbon, where the others are blue. Two FS crates have landed, at the top of reel 3 and on reel 5. Round yellow BUY BONUS button bottom left, DEMO BET at €2.00.

Game rules, page 1 — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Game rules, page 1The panel's first page, opened right at the top of the scroll bar: three paragraphs of scene-setting — Big Bob, his tackle box and his boat, the "Gone Fishing" sign — before the technical line, a 5-reel, 4-row game with paylines and LootLine wins, capped at 10,000 times the bet in every mode. In the middle, the two Marlins side by side, the blue one framed and the golden one not, both marked 500: their values run from 1x to 1000x the bet.

Game rules, page 2 — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Game rules, page 2The page tells the two Fishermen apart, shown side by side in the middle: the normal one in his red frame, green shirt, marked x20 — his top value, the others being x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x10 and x15 — and the golden one, all orange and with no multiplier shown. The text explains the order of collection: a Golden Marlin caught in a LootLine spreads its value to every normal Marlin on the grid, then the Fishermen collect, top to bottom and left to right, the golden one acting after all the others and only one at a time.

Game rules, page 3 — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Game rules, page 3BONUS GAME - DON'T BE KOI, illustrated by its stack of three FS crates: 3 symbols at the same time in the base game, 8 free spins. Below, the Big Haul Bar drawn in full — four Fishermen in a row in their blue cells and, at the end, the golden +8 FS token. A level falls every four Fishermen: each awards 8 more spins and raises the minimum multiplier to x2, then x4, then x10. Golden Marlins are worth at least 3x there.

Game rules, page 4 — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Game rules, page 4BONUS GAME - CATCH ME IF YOU CAN, illustrated by four FS crates stacked two by two: 4 symbols at the same time, 10 free spins. It keeps the DON'T BE KOI mechanics but starts higher — every Fisherman there has at least x2, Golden Marlins at least 5x — and its three levels award 10 spins each while climbing to x4, x10 then x15. The heading HIDDEN EPIC BONUS - HOOKED ON PARADISE appears at the foot of the page.

Game rules, page 5 — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Game rules, page 5HOOKED ON PARADISE and its stack of five FS crates, the game's rarest trigger, for 10 free spins. The two sticky Fishermen are drawn at the foot of the page, caught in a white net — the red-framed normal one and the golden one: they stay on the grid until the bonus ends, the first is already in place at the start, and the golden one also picks up what the others have collected. The values of all sticky Fishermen are paid out only at the end of the bonus.

Game rules, page 6 — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Game rules, page 6The pay table, opened flush with the letters, of which only the bases show at the top of the frame: they all pay alike, 4.00 for five, 1.00 for four, 0.20 for three. The row of fish follows — orange-striped fish and pink fish at 10.00, yellow butterflyfish and blue fish at 15.00 for five — then the Wild, alone and centred, at 20.00 for five. The game then states its theoretical RTP of 96.28%, simulated over 10,000,000,000 rounds.

Ways to win — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Ways to winThe Wild opens the page, alone at the top of the screen — a metal W crossed by an orange hook. Then WAYS TO WIN, which gives the figure plainly: the number of possible lines in this game is 14. They are drawn just below, as green cells on empty grids of five columns and four rows, eight on the first row, six on the second. The BONUS BUY section starts at the foot of the page.

Game rules, page 8 — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Game rules, page 8The five buy RTPs lined up at the top of the page: 96.3% for BONUSHUNT FEATURESPINS, 96.3% for FIN-TASTIC FEATURESPINS, 96.35% for SEA-RIOUSLY EPIC DROP FEATURESPINS — the last two barring FS symbols — 96.28% for DON'T BE KOI and 96.24% for CATCH ME IF YOU CAN. The GENERAL part takes over, with the double chevron of the bet selector in the middle and the bet limits, from €0.10 to €100.00.

Game rules, page 9 — Marlin Masters: The Big Haul — Game rules, page 9The page opens on the bottom of the SPIN button's circular arrow, cut off by the top of the frame, and runs through WIN, MAX WIN, FREE SPINS and AUTOPLAY — the last with its icon in the middle, an arrowed circle around a play triangle, twin of the button sitting to the right of SPIN in the game bar. The maximum win of 10,000 times the bet closes the round as soon as it is reached and forfeits any remaining free spins.
