Slot machine details and review Ocean Catch Bonus Buy
Ocean Catch Bonus Buy is a slot machine that you will be able to play at Evoplay casinos. Itβs a fishing-themed slot, so the Ocean category is once again well represented through this new release, and it also comes with the collection mechanics youβd expect in this category. The setup is fairly large, 5×4 reels being used to deliver 12 active paylines.
Every slot machine must be developed by a company that invented, designed and put it into operation. Many players eventually find that they only enjoy playing on machines from specific software provider, so they narrow down their selection by preferred brand.
A high volatility slot. Wins are rare, but can be really big. The game has more pronounced fluctuations and can often go without hitting anything for a long time, suitable for players who like adrenaline, higher risk and work with a larger budget. More about volatility here.
Slot theme and symbols
You can get a lot of fishing-themed slots right now, so itβs not something that will make a new release stand out. Ocean Catch Bonus Buy doesnβt quite manage to deliver the sort of graphics that would make this 5-reel online slot get some players who love a good design. It has the same symbols as everyone else, with either Royals for the low-value positions, or images showing various equipment pieces that a fisherman may wear.
Ocean Catch Bonus Buy theme and symbols
While you should expect considerable risk from a high volatility title, you can check out a slot machine demo first if youβre not sure about it. You will find that the rewards may be big enough to make up for the higher risk level, as a 10,000x top jackpot isnβt always available in these fishing-style games. Iβm OK with the 96% RTP as well, since long-term it will pay as well as most of its competitors.

WILD symbol
One of the major symbols that you can get in Ocean Catch is the wild symbol, which is useful in a couple of ways. The substitution ability is one of them, and itβs the one that you get most often. If you land five Fisherman Wilds on a payline, a 200x prize will be paid, which is the same as the top symbol. It also acts as a collector, but more on that below. It can land both during paid and free spins.
Fish & Collect
As you will notice, the fish symbols will appear with prizes attached. While they can also form regular combinations, if you want the extra prizes, you will need a Fisherman symbol around, as it is the collector. The fish symbols can pay 1x to 7x during paid spins.
Dynamite feature
This is a random modifier, which can trigger at any point as you play this game, provided that there is at least one Fisherman Wild present. The game will pick 3 to 6 of the regular symbols and will transform them into Fish symbols, which are guaranteed to be collected by the Fisherman Wild.
Bonus symbol
The game has scatter symbols as well, the ones with the Fishing Boat, marked with the Bonus logo. These can appear on all reels.
Free Spins
If you can get a minimum of three bonus symbols somewhere on the reels, you will be rewarded with a free spins feature. You get your pick of a location, and this will decide what kind of volatility will be available (Bay for low volatility, Lagoon for medium, or Ocean for high volatility). Go with a higher volatility if you want fish of higher value around. You play this feature and collect the Fisherman Wilds when they appear, to get additional free spins and higher multipliers for wilds. Here, the ultimate target is the Gold Fish, which has a prize of up to 100x.
Tackle Box
Another special symbol that you can get during free spins, the Tackle Box, will appear only on the 5th reel. It comes with either additional free spins (2 to 8 rounds) or with a multiplier that improves the values of the current multiplier wilds by as much as 20x.
Double Chance
The odds of triggering the main feature will double if you activate the Double Chance option. It does cost you 50% more to play with it active.
Bonus Buy
You will get the option to trigger the free spins feature, in whatever version you like, and in several numbers. You do have to pay quite a bit for the privilege, though. Regardless of the version that you go for (Bay, Lagoon, or Ocean), you can pay 88x for 10 free spins, 118x for 12 free spins, or 175x for 15 free spins.

Our rating of the game
Ocean Catch Bonus Buy
While visually this isnβt a slot machine that would stand out in the overcrowded fishing category, I like what the mechanics and math look like. Itβs a slot with high volatility, yes, but it also pays up to 10,000x, and it has a 96% RTP. The fish collection mechanic is available during paid spins as well, so the regular side of the game is not as boring as in others, and there are some additional options and modifiers for the main feature as well. Overall, itβs a good slot for anyone who is a fan of the fish collection mechanics that are already available in a lot of other competitors, since itβs a bit different, not just another clone.

How do we rate slot machines?
We evaluate slot machines based on multiple criteria, from which we make our final verdict.
A 10,000x top jackpot is always going to be a good reason to check out a game.
With the RTP at 96%, the long-term odds are about as good as you can expect in a modern slot.
You can get the Fisherman Wild as a collector during paid spins as well, not just during free spins.
A random Dynamite feature can make some spins into something a lot more exciting.
There are free spins for you to trigger, and they come with more options and modifiers than youβd expect.
You can improve the odds by using the Double Chance option and paying extra.
There is the option to buy access to free spins, in whatever version you like, from those offered.
Cons
Itβs a high-volatility slot, which isn't a pro since it signals higher risk even in shorter sessions.
The graphics of the game are among the least appealing ones Iβve seen in modern fishing slots lately.
It has a larger game area with a small number of lines, so forming combinations is a bit harder.
