Lobster Bob’s Crazy Crab Shack Slot Review

This next game is called Lobster Bob’s Crazy Crab Shack slot and it comes from a studio you’ve no doubt heard of before, Pragmatic Play.

I did myself an injustice when researching the term “crab shack.” Some Urban Dictionary entries will scar you for life, so here’s some friendly advice: don’t Google the term.

I’d say that we should rather go with the traditional use of the word – namely a restaurant where seafood is served – but the fact that this game has a lobster running the crab shack, and by implication serving up his fellow crustaceans, is disturbing in its own way.

It makes me wonder if our Hawaiian T-shirt-wearing lobster friend isn’t a bit of a psycho. Be that as it may, we’re in it for the money and not to make friends with bottom feeders that don’t actually exist. So, on that note, let’s check out this game’s money-making potential.

Gameplay

This slot takes on the traditional 5x3-reel format with 20 paylines. It rocks an RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

of 96.03%
and offers a high volatility rate.

The figures you’re gagging to find out about are the following: 6,000x for the max multiplier, and an astonishing €360,000 for the max win! The only currencies you can’t use are the Japanese yen and Tether; every other form of crypto or fiat is available.

The Free Spins symbol appears on reels 2, 3, and 4. The Lobster Wild appears on all reels and replaces every symbol that’s not a Free Spins or Crab one.

The Crab symbol is what you want to hit for instant cash prizes:

  • 3 Crabs = 1x your total bet
  • 4 Crabs = 5x your total bet
  • 5 Crabs = 15x your total bet
  • 6 Crabs = 40x your total bet
  • 7 Crabs = 100x your total bet
  • 8 Crabs = 500x your total bet
  • 9 Crabs = 2,000x your total bet

You’ll see the Crab symbols collected in a meter to the left of the grid.

If, during the base game, you hit 2 Free Spin symbols (you need at least 3 to trigger the round), and if the Free Spin symbols can move down 1 position without leaving the grid, a re-spin will be triggered.

Any Crab symbols that land during the re-spin will be collected and you’ll be paid according to the paytable.

Features

FREE SPINS:

Before the Free Spins round starts – after you land 3 or more Free Spin symbols – you’ll see a wheel of fortune mechanic.

It awards a random number of spins which could be 10, 12, 15, 20, 25, or even 30 spins. And you’ll also be awarded a random multiplier of 2x or 3x (there’s only one of the latter) for the subsequent round.

Multipliers apply to all wins you score during Free Spins; including the Crab symbol instant cash prizes.

Free Spins can be re-triggered by landing an additional 3 Free Spin symbols which will again award a random number of spins and either a 2x or 3x multiplier.

BUY BONUS:

Pay 100x your bet and skip the queue to go straight to the Free Spins feature.

Performance

I experienced no issues while playing this game on my various devices, nor when I switched from Safari to Chrome.

Maximum Win

The largest multiplier you can grab is 6,000x If the total win during a Free Spins round hits that mark or more, the round will end immediately and you’ll be awarded that stunning multiplier payout (your remaining Free Spins will be forfeited though).

As for the top prize, that’s a phenomenal €360,000! Betting starts at €0.20 and is capped at €60.

Conclusion

I’m still disturbed by Bob’s lack of remorse at selling and serving up his fellow sea dwellers – not that we get to see that part of the crab shack’s business, fortunately.

Sarcasm aside, Pragmatic has once again created a rock-solid game with some incredible stats and it also looks great.

Theoretically, you should get 66.6 spins for around the same amount of money you’d spend on the Buy Bonus, and I regularly triggered Free Spins within that allotment during testing.

Lobster Bob’s Crazy Crab Shack slot also looks good in landscape mode on a phone, so you can take it wherever you go. It’s a thumbs-up from me.
