Hot Tuna: a fishing trip where the meter does the work

Hot Tuna is a seaside fishing slot under a red gate, where schools of tuna carry cash values and a smiling fisherman only shows up in the free spins. At BolehSpin you open it from the Pragmatic Play lobby in your phone browser, with no app or separate game ID, on one BolehSpin account.

Ten lines and a two-symbol top pay

The rules pages print 10 paylines, paid left to right on adjacent reels from the leftmost reel, with only the highest win per line. The red squid on a hook is the one symbol that also pays for two in a row. Sushi rolls, a tackle box, a seahorse and the school of tuna follow, and the letters A to 10 all share the same pays.

The Scatter, a tuna in a round badge, lands on all reels. Three, four or five of them give 10, 15 or 20 free spins. If the base game shows just two, one of two random events can follow: a respin in which the Scatter reels shift down a position and the rest spin again, or an extra Scatter placed in a random position.

Tuna that wait for the fisherman

Every spin, the school-of-tuna Money symbols take a random value of 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x or 2500x base bet. The rules page says these values are won during free spins.

In the round, the fisherman Wild lands on any reel, replaces every symbol except Scatter, Money and Hot Tuna, adds 1 free spin and collects all the Money values on screen.

The 7-step meter and Hot Tuna

A Money symbol that lands without a Wild goes into a meter at the side. The page says to collect 6 Money symbols for each of its 7 steps to retrigger the round: 10 more free spins, and a Hot Tuna symbol can hit at random on every free spin. Each fill adds 10 more spins and one more Hot Tuna. After the first retrigger Hot Tuna symbols can be collected in the meter too, and anything beyond the final step carries over.

Hot Tuna appears only in free spins. When it hits, a x10 multiplier applies to the total Money values collected, and several Hot Tunas in one collection add their multipliers. At the end of a free spin with no Wild or Money showing, Wild, Money and Hot Tuna symbols can appear at random; Hot Tuna only after a retrigger.

Ante Bet, Buy Free Spins and the cap

Normal play uses a 5x bet multiplier. The Ante Bet uses 10x and switches Buy Free Spins off. Buy Free Spins costs 100x the current base bet, and 3, 4 or 5 Scatters can hit at random on the triggering spin. We do not recommend either. The maximum win is 2,500x bet; a round that reaches it ends and remaining spins are forfeited. No return percentage is printed.

Fishing with a limit

The paytable shows RM amounts at a total bet of RM2.00, and bets run from RM0.05 to RM1,000.00. Set a budget and stop when it is spent.
