Crabs are aquatic sea creatures, not itch ones, and are one of the types of creatures that appear in online pokies from time to time. Perhaps not as often as famous animals like dogs or dolphins, but often enough to carve out a niche in the world of gambling. It's not very often that they appear in big, monster slots, and NetEnt's Crab Trap slot is unlikely to break that trend. It's full of charm, fairly simple, has medium variation, has a crab collecting feature and ends with a modest maximum win. If this sounds appetizing, then let's try catching a different group of seafood for a change.

Since crabs are usually caught in the sea, it makes sense that the base game of Crab Trap takes place next to it, with a huge fish suspended from a beam next to the structure that houses the 6-reel game board. Each reel occupies 4 rows, and winnings are calculated using a scatter payout system rather than paylines or payout methods. As befits similar pokies where the main role is played by a fish or a crab, Crab Trap is presented in a positive, cheerful way, with bright graphics and a cheerful soundtrack.

The mathematical model behind Crab Trap has medium volatility and a default return for the player of 96.07%. And we invite you to try playing the Crab Trap demo right now. This is convenient, since on our website you can also find a truly reliable online casino, where this machine is available to play for real money.

How to play Crab Trap slot

Let's look at the gameplay of Crab Trap in more detail. The Blue Boat symbol appears on all reels in the base game and during free spins. Each blue boat adds a trap frame to its position and 1 to 5 trap frames to random positions that do not already have trap frames. The Red Boat symbol appears on reel 4 in the base game and on reel 3 in free spins. It can appear in the base game if at least 5 trap frames appear on the reels, and gives the right to a return move. Respin can also be awarded if a blue boat and trap frames appear on all reels. If the blue and red boats fall out at the same time, trap frames are added, after which the Respin is triggered. During re-spins, winning combinations from scatters do not appear, but only winnings from crab symbols are awarded.

Single Crab symbols can land anywhere on the reels, 2x2 Giant Crab symbols can land on reels 1-2 and 4-5, and 3x3 Giant Crab symbols can land on reels 1-3 and 4-6. Symbols depicting a huge crab can be located in the field of view completely or partially. Single crabs are worth 1, 2, 5 or 10 times the bet, 2x2 colossal crabs are worth x10, x20, x50 or x100, and 3x3 colossal crabs are worth x100, x200, x500 or x1000 of the starting bet.

If the crab symbol lands on a trap position during a respin or during the spins that triggered the respin, it is fixed. If this happens during a respin, another respin is awarded. Colossal crabs are held in place even if the frames of the traps do not completely cover them. Respins end when no new crabs appear in the position with the trap frame. After that, all crab symbols in positions with trap frames will award winnings according to their value. If the colossal crabs are not completely framed, they are broken into individual crabs, which range in value from 1 to 10 times the stake. Partially visible colossal crabs turn into 2, 3 or 6 single crab symbols. All trap frames with crabs caught in them are removed from the reels. Trap frames without crabs remain on the net.

Free spins

Landing 3, 4, 5 or 6+ scatter symbols in the base game will award 5, 7, 10 or 15 free spins respectively. Scatter symbols are collected in the free spins round, and for every 3 scatter symbols collected, the player is awarded +1 additional free spin. All traps that appear during the launch of spins are transferred to free spins. Re-spins are triggered before free spins if they are activated on the same spin. During free spins, Respin is awarded when a red boat appears, and traps are not removed after Respin. Re-spins begin before the next free spin. At the end of the free spins, all trap frames disappear from the reels, and when you return to the base game, 4 trap frames are added to the grid.

Free spins purchase feature

Players can purchase 6 free spins for 50x their bet. When purchasing free spins, the RTP remains unchanged and all traps from the main game are retained. Ten new traps are randomly added to the reels, and at the end of the free spins, the saved traps are returned to the reels.
