Marlin Masters OG sends players out to sea to learn the art of fishing. Hacksaw Gaming sets the game on a 5×3 grid with 9 paylines and adds its Lootlines mechanic, where Marlin cash values can pay along the lines. The max win is 7,500x the bet.
Gameplay
Marlin symbols carry cash values of up to 1,000x the bet. When three or more Marlins land in a winning payline combination, they form a Lootline, and the payout is based on the values of the Marlins in it. Fisherman symbols collect every Marlin on the grid and pay their total as a cash prize. A Fisherman can also land with a multiplier of up to x20, which is applied to the collected total before it is paid.
Bonus rounds
Three FS symbols trigger Reel It In!, with 10 free spins, a Marlin Progress Bar and upgrade levels. Four FS symbols trigger Off the Hook!, with 15 free spins and a stronger version of the Marlin Progress Bar. Five FS symbols unlock the Hidden Epic Bonus, Plenty of Fish in the Sea. It awards 10 free spins where every Marlin is worth at least 5x the bet, and one Marlin and one Fisherman are guaranteed to land on every spin.

The default RTP is 96.25%, with 94.23% and 92.27% versions also available. Hacksaw rates the volatility 3 out of 5 (Medium), and the hit frequency is 29.2%. The max win is 7,500x the bet, and bets range from 0.10 to 100.
