Fishing Time
The ice-fishing flagship: multipliers up to 750× on fish, Mega Catch wheel escalation, and binary rounds.
What Fishing Time is
Fishing Time is an arcade-style catch game from BGaming, set on a frozen lake. Instead of spinning reels, you cast into a hole in the ice and the fish that come up carry multipliers printed on them: 25× and 50× on the small ones, 100× and 150× in the middle, 750× on the big fish that swims past far below. A wheel next to the raft handles the Big Catch, Huge Catch and Mega Catch tiers. A round is short and blunt — you either hook something with a number on it or you do not, and there is no paytable to study.
Where to start, depending on what you came for
This is a small site on purpose. Rather than a thousand thin game cards, it covers one game in unusual depth and then places it inside the catalogue it belongs to. Pick the entry point that matches your question.

Elvis Frog in Vegas
BGaming's signature 25-line character slot featuring 3×3 Blazing Reels, Coin Respins, and three jackpot tiers.
Aztec Magic Bonanza
6×5 Pay Anywhere cascading grid with refilling reels and Free Spins multiplier bombs up to 100×.
Wild Cash x9990
High-ceiling fruit slot featuring a pop-up 3-reel multiplier machine that awards up to 9,990× bonus payouts.
The games we cover, and what we could verify
Every RTP below is marked listed, which means the studio or the casino prints that figure and we are passing it on rather than measuring it ourselves. Where we could not check something at all, the page says unknown instead of guessing. Operators can and do configure alternative RTP builds, so the panel inside your own lobby always wins over any table on any guide site.
| Game | Format | RTP claim | Status | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fishing Time | Catch / arcade | ~96% | Listed | Short rounds, visible multipliers |
| Plinko | Ball drop | ~99% | Listed | Beginners testing risk levels |
| Space XY | Crash | ~97% | Listed | Players who want an exit button |
| Elvis Frog in Vegas | Reel slot | ~96% | Listed | Theme-led sessions with free spins |
| Aztec Magic Bonanza | Tumbling grid | ~96% | Listed | Feature hunters chasing multipliers |
| Wild Cash x9990 | Compact reel slot | ~96% | Listed | Bigger stakes, thinner hit rate |
None of those percentages are wrong as far as we know. They are simply numbers that get repeated from site to site, and a casino can license a different version of the same game with a different figure. The one set of numbers on this site you can check for yourself is the multipliers on the fish in Fishing Time; they are printed on the screens shown on the review page.
How to use this guide
The site has four layers, and each one answers a different kind of question. If you are deep in one and the answer is not there, you are probably in the wrong layer.
- The game layer — one page per title, with the specs strip, the feature walk-through and the bankroll notes. Start at Fishing Time.
- The format layer — instant and crash games and fishing-themed games, for when you like the shape of a game more than the specific title.
- The number layer — RTP and volatility explained plus how the random number generator works, including what provably fair does and does not prove.
- The practical layer — playing the demo, what to check in a lobby, finding the game at 1win, and limits and help if a session stops being fun.
What to check in Malaysia
Two things shape how a Malaysian reader should use this site. The first is legal: gambling here is restricted under the Common Gaming Houses Act 1953 and the Betting Act 1953, and Syariah law applies separately to Muslim citizens. Nothing on this domain is an invitation to break either. We describe games; we do not host them, take deposits or run promotions.
The second is practical. Ringgit stakes make the maths tangible in a way that a euro screenshot does not. If a game's minimum bet is RM1 and you sit down with RM50, you have fifty rounds before the session is over on a flat stake — fewer if you raise it, and the wheel-driven escalations in Fishing Time do not care how long you have been playing. Setting the session budget before you open the game, rather than during it, is the single habit that separates an evening of entertainment from a problem. Our lobby checklist covers the deposit-side questions worth asking, and the responsible gambling page lists the help lines available locally.
Try the demo before using real money
Fifteen minutes of free play tells you whether the catch rhythm suits you — and costs nothing to find out.
How we check the details
There is no review score on this site, no five-star badge and no claim that an editor logged forty hours on any game. Those signals are easy to fabricate and impossible for you to check, so we leave them out and offer something verifiable instead: a status label on every number, screenshots we actually have, and a plain statement whenever the answer is that nobody outside the studio knows. When a page recommends a game for a particular type of player, the reasoning is written out so you can disagree with it.
Pages are commercially funded — some outbound links to casinos earn the site a fee. That is disclosed once here and explained in full on the about page, and it does not buy a game a better write-up, because there are no scores to inflate in the first place.
One habit that makes a difference
If you read nothing else here, take this: decide the stake by arithmetic before you open a game, not by feel once it is running. Session budget divided by the number of rounds the game needs to behave normally — thirty on a gentle format, several hundred on a harsh one. It sounds mechanical, and that is exactly the point, because a rule set in advance survives the moment when the balance is falling and every instinct says to raise the bet. Every game page on this site works that calculation in ringgit for the title it covers, and the reasoning behind the round counts is on the RTP and volatility page.
Common questions before you start
Is Fishing Time a slot or an instant win game?
It sits between the two. There are no spinning reels; you drop a line and the fish you hook carry the multipliers, which is closer to an arcade or instant-win format than to a five-reel slot. Casino lobbies file it under whichever menu suits them, so search both if you cannot find it.
What is the RTP of Fishing Time?
BGaming titles in this family are typically listed around 96%, but we have not measured it and lobby figures differ by operator. Open the info panel inside the game you are about to play and read the figure printed there — it is the only version that applies to your session.
Can I play the game for free?
Usually yes. BGaming supplies demo builds of most of its catalogue, so a play-money version is common. It teaches you the flow at zero cost, but a demo run tells you nothing reliable about how a real-money session will go. Details on the demo page.
Does this site take bets?
No. There is no account, no wallet and no game client here. Fishing Time MY is a guide; play happens on third-party casino sites that we link to and do not operate.
Why are there only six game reviews?
Because six pages we can defend are worth more than sixty stitched together from press releases. Titles get added when there is something specific to say about them, not to inflate a catalogue count.
Is online gambling legal in Malaysia?
It is heavily restricted. The Common Gaming Houses Act 1953 and the Betting Act 1953 both apply, and Syariah law applies separately to Muslim citizens. This site is informational and does not offer gambling; check your own position before depositing anywhere.
