Evolution has unveiled Ice Fishing, the latest additions to its live game show portfolio.
The title featured a 53-page segment that can award an instant cash prize of trigger one of three themed bonus rounds- Lil’ Blues, Big Oranges and Huge Reds.
Each of the three bonus games offers its own gameplay style and have a multiplier potential of up to x100, x200 and x500 respectively.
Todd Haushalter, Evolution’s Chief Product Officer, commented: “There are little surprises and bursts of excitement woven into the entertainment experience, and we think players will enjoy uncovering them. We’re genuinely excited about this format, as it opens the door to a new style of rapid game show with strong potential.”
Multiplier boosts can also land during the main game and carry through to the bonus round, boosting the potential maximum win to x5000 the player’s bet.
During the bonus games, the host drops a fishing reel and hauls up fish that each carry an associated multiplier, revealing the player’s catch gradually.
Haushalter revealed that the game was inspired by its audience’s rising preference for TikTok-style shorts over long-form videos.
“We’ve wanted to create a speed game show for a long time, as we’re seeing a growing audience that craves faster, more instantly gratifying formats. Ice Fishing is our take on that idea. It’s fast, fun, and packed with dramatic gameplay,” he added.
