Golden Catch: Classic BTG Online Slot Hits United States Market
Hit Megaways slot from Big Time Gaming will leave you reeling this summer
Classic Big Time Gaming (BTG) slot Golden Catch is about to make its United States debut via the Evolution One Stop Shop (OSS). The six-reel Megaways slot will go live in five regulated online gaming markets encompassing Connecticut, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan and West Virginia from July 19.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and he could be in for some epic wins. That’s the premise of Golden Catch, which puts players in charge of a fishing fleet searching for the goodies of the deep from Fish Bonuses to Golden Boats. Let’s just say the reels are spinning in more ways than one.
Legendary Australian game developer BTG revolutionized the industry when it developed the Megaways mechanic, which provides up to 117,649 ways to win on every spin. But Megaways isn’t the only exciting Golden Catch that’ll leave you reeling.
At any time, one or more boats may appear above the reels and drop anchor. As reactions occur and winning symbols are removed, one or more Fish Bonus Prizes will be revealed. Fish Bonus Prizes will be awarded for each boat above the reels and golden boats in the base game multiply Fish Bonus Prizes by ten. Players can also trigger the free spins mode where Boat Multipliers are unlimited.
Can’t wait for the fish to take the bait? Well, you’re off the hook. Use Win Exchange for extra chances at triggering the free spins. Whenever you win between 25 and 100 times the stake, you have the option to exchange the entire win for ten free spins.
Too impatient to wait for a feature? Press the Bonus Buy icon to purchase ten free spins for 100 times stake. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel.
“We think you’re going to fall for Golden Catch hook, line and sinker,” the Chief Executive Officer for BTG, Nik Robinson, said. “With its hugely engaging base game and astounding bonus feature, this slot was a huge hit in Europe and we predict it will become a big favorite in the United States too.”
“BTG has been an absolute game-changer in the online gaming space and Golden Catch has become something of a modern classic since its launch in Europe and other markets in 2022,” the North America Chief Commercial Officer for Evolution, Jeff Millar, said. “Now we’re starting to roll BTG games out to United States markets and it’s great to see how much they resonate with a United States audience. It just goes to show that a good game is universal.”
