Ready for the biggest catch of your life? In this Crabbin’ Crazy 2 review, we will go over the second instalment of one of iSoftBet’s most loved slot games. We will discuss the game mechanics, the RTP, the audio and visual design, the bonus features, and give our final verdict. Launched in early April 2023, Crabbin’ Crazy 2 aims to be twice as fun, exciting, and enthralling than the first slot. This 5×3 slot with 20 paylines can offer a maximum win of up to 2000x the bet.
Crabbin’ Crazy 2 is a typical 5-reel, 3-row video slot that has 20 fixed paylines. Having at least 3 same symbols along the paylines, from reel 1 to 3, will guarantee you a win. Also, you can set the wager from €0.20 up to €20.00 for every spin. Players can alter the bet amount, coin value, and the number of auto spins based on their preference as well. The auto spins can go as high as 1,000.
The game’s RTP is at 95.93%, however, you must always be aware that RTP varies at each casino. You can always check the game RTP in the game’s info tab at the specific casino. Crabbin’ Crazy 2 is rated as a low to medium variance slot which means that players get more frequent payouts. However, the payouts will not be as huge as those slots that are rated as high volatility. The maximum potential win for this game is 2000x the bet. This is an improvement on the original Crabbin’ Crazy slot game which was only 1,585x bet. The most interesting thing about this game is the different bonus features that the game has. I will discuss them in more detail below.
You can already play this exciting new game at many Ireland online casinos. Here are the Gambling Zone recommended casino slot sites where you can play this slot game.
Crabbin’ Crazy 2’s central theme revolves around fishing your favourite crustacean just like its prequel. The background is also similar to the first part but is brighter than its predecessor. The overall design is very aesthetic and colourful, but nothing particularly special. The background music is a relaxed beat played mostly on steel drums with specific fillers, like drum rolls, popping in depending on what is happening during the game.
The game has 9 symbols in total. There are the usual royal symbols including the ace as the lowest value symbols. There are also higher value fishing related symbols like Shrimp, Crab Claws, or a Fishing Boat. The Captain symbol acts as a wild. There are also the Catch Me Crab symbols which trigger the respins bonus game if you manage to land 5 on the reels.

Any that appear on the reels transform into the same paid symbol
Optimised for mobile, Crabbin’ Crazy 2 was developed with HTML5 technology that makes it work smoothly on any mobile platform. This is perfect for on-the-go players. The same gameplay features are available in the touch version of the game.
As mentioned, Crabbin’ Crazy comes packed with a number of bonus features. Here is a breakdown of each.
Outside of Ireland, players can switch on the game’s ante bet anytime. This increases the cost of each spin by 25%, and increases the RTP to 96.01%. Once activated, the chance of getting to the bonus round will always be higher. When you trigger the Crabbin’ Bonanza re-spin, you will get an additional re-spin, taking it to four rather than the usual 3.
The game’s mystery crate symbol can appear randomly on the reels. The mystery crate feature transforms into any paying symbol that can help you form a payline.
The taxi crab feature is randomly activated by a non-winning spin. After the reels stop spinning a massive crab driving a taxi will drive across the reels and transform them into a winning spin. It can land you either a big win or trigger a bonus round.
If you land five of the catch-me crabs on the base game, this will take you to this respins bonus round. Players will get three re-spins, four if you activate the Crabbin’ Licence. As the reels spin you have the chance to either land a type of crab, the fisherman, or a blank cell. If a crab symbol appears that will stick to the grid and the respins will reset again to three or four re-spins. Each crab is worth a specific multiplier amount based on your stake. If a fisherman appears, he will collect all the crabs along with their prizes. The round continues if you still have re-spins but only the fisherman remains. If you continue landing crabs and/or fisherman, you will continue getting respins. If you land a Super Crab this will double up all winnings.
If the fisherman pops up in front of the reels randomly, three buckets will drop from above and you will need to choose one random bonus. The options will include the following:
There are loads of fishing-themed slots out there, but Crabbin’ Crazy 2 is worth a try. The visuals and soundtrack is nothing special and the base game does not have anything beyond the norm. It has an RTP of 95.93% and low to medium volatility, so you can expect to have a number of low payouts. However, the crazy amounts of bonus features makes the game standout compared to its competitors. The only drawback is that a lot of the bonuses are only triggered randomly. I did find myself spinning a lot just so I could try them out, and the constant small wins meant that my bankroll did not suffer so much. I give this game a solid 7.0 and I think it will appeal to players who are not necessarily looking for big wins but want to sink a good amount of time into a game.
