Nolimit City’s Catfish Hunters takes players to the banks of the Mississippi for a release built around fish collection, escalating multipliers and layered bonus upgrades. While the presentation leans into exaggerated riverbank characters and southern humour, the mechanics underneath follow a more familiar Nolimit structure: high volatility, aggressive scaling and multiple ways to accelerate the action.
The game uses a 5×3 layout with up to 243 ways to win and is rated 10 out of 10 for volatility. The maximum payout is set at 20,000x the base bet. The standard RTP version sits at 96.03%, with 94.03% and 92.06% variants also available. Free Spins are expected on average once every 200 spins, and a 100x win lands roughly once in 880 spins.
At the centre of the design is the Fish and Electrical Frame mechanic. Fish symbols carry fixed values between 0.25x and 100x but only pay when an Electrical Frame lands on their position. Each successful Fish win doubles a global Fish multiplier, which can build as high as x1024. Because Fish wins are evaluated sequentially, the multiplier can grow within a single spin, creating the potential for rapid escalation if multiple Fish connect.
xWays returns here as a shaping tool, expanding symbols across reels and occasionally revealing Fish or Wilds. If more than one xWays lands, they reveal the same symbol, which can shift the direction of a spin quickly. Impostor Wilds add further unpredictability, transforming into one of five Wild types. Depending on which version appears, they can boost the global Fish multiplier, add Electrical Frames to the grid or convert regular symbols into Fish, feeding back into the core collection mechanic.
The Free Spins structure is tiered. Three Bonus symbols trigger Dark Water Spins, four trigger Deep Water Spins and five activate Overcharged Spins. Each level increases starting spins and the number of guaranteed upgrades. The global Fish multiplier carries into the bonus round but halves at the start of each new spin, maintaining tension between sustained growth and reset pressure.
As expected from Nolimit City, feature buys and boosters are extensive. Players can purchase direct entry into bonus rounds or begin spins with elevated starting multipliers such as x8, x128 or x1024. Additional options can guarantee Impostor Wilds or skew Fish values toward higher tiers. An Extra Spin feature may also appear after certain rounds, allowing continuation with retained frames and multiplier levels.
Catfish Hunters looks positioned as a high-risk, multiplier-driven release aimed at players who enjoy chasing escalating sequences rather than steady base game returns. With layered upgrades, aggressive buy options and a 20,000x ceiling, it fits comfortably within Nolimit City’s established profile while introducing a fish-collection system that can build momentum quickly when the grid aligns.
