Ugliest Catch slot review
We're heading into the murky, slimy depths of a lake plagued by years of illegal toxic dumping, in search of none other than the Ugliest Catch. Throw in a couple of beers, and you've got the most unpleasantly thrilling fishing trip the world of slots has ever seen. Nolimit City reels in some luck alongside a repulsively charming catch and his equally colourful owner.
Ugliest Catch runs on a 5×5 grid with a Ways mechanic, extreme volatility (Extreme), and an RTP of 96.11%. Hit frequency sits at 22.99%, the odds of triggering free spins are 1 in 252, and the win ceiling reaches ×50,000 the stake, one of the highest figures among the studio's slots covered so far.
What actually holds this game together?
💡 The studio's signature mechanics
The icons on the game's page indicate the presence of two trademarked Nolimit City xMechanics: xBet and Ways. The game runs on a Ways mechanic instead of fixed paylines, typical for many of the studio's releases.
Extreme volatility — what does it actually feel like?
With a hit frequency of 22.99%, this slot lands fairly regularly, and the odds of triggering free spins are 1 in 252. The chance of reaching the maximum win, however, is 1 in 20 million spins, notably more accessible than many of the studio's other extreme-volatility releases, especially given the substantial ×50,000 ceiling.
⚠️ A hard win cap
The maximum payout is capped at ×50,000 the stake: as soon as the round's total win reaches or exceeds that amount, the round ends immediately and exactly ×50,000 is awarded.
What players love
- One of the highest win ceilings among the studio's slots covered — ×50,000
- Relatively accessible odds of the maximum win — 1 in 20 million
- A Ways mechanic instead of the usual fixed paylines
- A comically repulsive-yet-charming fishing theme
Worth keeping in mind

Ugliest Catch — questions and answers
1
How many ways to win does the fully unlocked grid in Ugliest Catch offer?
The base 243 Ways grid expands to its maximum as locked cells are unlocked through Scatter symbols. The more cells are unlocked, the greater the potential for combinations.
2
What does the golden Fisherman Wild collect in Ugliest Catch?
It adds together all multipliers from Fish Trophy and Big Berta symbols on the screen at once. The final value is multiplied by the bet and immediately added to the payout.
3
How big is the difference in value between Fish Trophy and Big Berta?
Fish Trophy pays from x2 to x5000, while Big Berta starts at x100 and goes up to the same x5000. Big Berta is noticeably less likely to award small values.
4
How does the Troll Level increase during Ugliest Catch free spins?
Every 4th collected Fisherman Wild raises the level to x2, x3, or x10 and adds +2 spins. The level is available only in bonus modes, not in the base game.
5
How many cells are unlocked at the different Ugliest Catch bonus levels?
Lunker Spins starts with 6 unlocked cells, Hawg Spins with 8, while Honey Hole Spins immediately unlocks all 10. The potential increases along with the number of open positions.
6
Can free spins be extended during Lunker or Hawg Spins?
Yes, an additional Scatter during the round unlocks 2 more cells and adds 1 extra spin. Honey Hole Spins cannot be extended this way because all cells are unlocked from the start.
7
What happens when the 50000x win cap is reached?
The round ends immediately under the feature called Kiss My GO-TO-HELL, and the maximum amount is paid out regardless of how many bonus spins were still remaining.
