The Rodfather Megaways Review

The fishing slot genre has branched into two main templates. You have the original retro-style Fishin' Frenzy template, and the more recent and more modernized Big Bass Bonanza template. Booming Games has chosen the first for The Rodfather Megaways when it comes to features, but the latter when it comes to the visual presentation.

In fact, this release comes with more animations and better visuals than both of the above-mentioned and highly popular releases, and cash fish can be reeled in also in the base game. It’s a direct competitor to Fishin’ Frenzy Megaways, and you get max megaways and mystery symbols modifiers sprinkled in for good measure. The math model is superior as well, with a significantly higher max win and RTP.

The Rodfather Megaways Slot Features

The premium sea creature symbols pay between 1 and 5 x your stake for 6 of a kind wins, and the Wild symbol steps in for pay symbols to help complete wins. The wild holds no value of its own, and all winning symbols are removed via the Cascading mechanic. New and/or existing symbols drop down to fill the gaps, and this process repeats as long as you keep winning.

The Mystery Symbols feature triggers at random times, and this turns a number of random symbols into mystery symbols.

The mystery symbols reveal a randomly chosen matching symbol, and this may lead to a win. The Max Megaways feature also triggers at random times, giving you 7 positions per reel and 200,704 ways to win.

The Fishin’ Time feature triggers whenever you land cash fish symbols together with the fisherman Collect symbol. The cash fish ‘value symbols’ can land on all 6 reels, and they come with values between 1x and 50x your stake. The Collect symbol can appear on reel 6 or the top horizontal reel only, and it collects all cash fish symbols at the end of a cascading sequence.

The Bonus Round triggers when you land 4 scatters in view, and this awards 10 free spins. You get +5 extra spins whenever you land 4 scatters during the bonus round, and the unlimited progressive win multiplier starts at x1.

The multiplier increases by +1 per winning cascade, and it never resets as long as the bonus round lasts.

You get to see a few smaller base game wins here and there, before we trigger the bonus round at 0:46 into the 3-minute highlights video. Nothing much happened until late in the feature, where we finally landed a decent win. You can check it all out for yourself by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

The Rodfather Megaways comes with impressive subsea visuals, and the ocean is teeming with animated life. This is a stark contrast to the static presentation you get in Fishin’ Frenzy Megaways, and Booming Games is clearly aiming for a dethrone. The idea behind this release seems to be; modernize the visuals and just make “everything” better than the obvious competitor, and we don’t mind that strategy at all. In fact, we hope to see more of it.

The reel ‘em cash fish collection can trigger in all stages in this release, instead of only in the bonus round. This is a good selling point for impatient players, and in addition you get mystery symbols and the max megaways modifier. The cash fish values are higher as well, and the same can be said about the very solid 34,200x potential.

All in all, this makes for a great alternative to Fishin’ Frenzy Megaways, and the 96.4 % RTP tops this off as a superior game pound for pound.

Pros

• Cascading wins and up to 200,704 Megaways
• Random Mystery Symbols and Max Megaways
• Cash Fish Collection in all stages of the game
• Unlimited progressive multiplier bonus round
• Win up to 34,200x your stake
• RTP of 96.4 % (no RTP ranges)

Cons
