Monkey King Fishing

Overview

Monkey King Fishing sits in Fa Chai’s arcade portfolio rather than the classic reel-slot catalogue. With no official paylines and only a stated “Bonus Game” feature, it falls into the fishing-style shooter category where players usually pay for each shot and collect target multipliers instead of line wins. The headline numbers we can confirm are a theoretical RTP of 97 % and a maximum stated multiplier of 1,000×.

What I can confirm

• Confirmed RTP: 97 % (single version documented).
• Maximum single-round multiplier: 1,000×.
• No fixed paylines — consistent with fishing mechanics.
• Officially listed feature: Bonus Game (exact trigger and rules not disclosed).

All other information (bet limits, volatility label, release month, etc.) is listed elsewhere but is not validated by the in-game rules.

What this means for a player

• 97 % RTP is on the high side; long-term theoretical loss is 3 % of turnover, provided your casino is running this exact version.
• The 1,000× cap tells you the ceiling on a single round or sequence; it is generous for arcade shooters but not life-changing. Budget accordingly.
• Volatility is unknown. Until you see bankroll swings in practice, assume variance could be severe — arcade fishing titles often have clustered dead periods followed by big hits.
• If the unverified bet range (€0.10 – €100) is accurate, the game is flexible for both micro-stakes testing and high-roller bursts. Confirm inside the cashier before committing.
• A playable demo exists; use it to feel shot pricing and hit frequency without risking cash.

Verify in 60 seconds (rules/paytable)

• Open the help icon and locate “Version Information” — check that RTP is indeed 97 % in your jurisdiction.
• Scroll to the target list: confirm which symbols or fish carry the 1,000× top multiplier and whether it’s limited to bonus play.
• Look for the Bonus Game section: identify the trigger (often special targets or cumulative points) and any entry cost.

My take

On paper, Monkey King Fishing offers an attractive theoretical return and a respectable 1,000× cap, but the absence of published volatility or trigger details means actual bankroll behaviour remains a guess until you try it. I’d start with minimum stakes in demo, watch how often the Bonus Game shows up, and only then decide whether the swing profile suits your appetite. Treat any third-party bet or date information as provisional until you see it in the game UI.

Responsible gambling

This is still a real-money gambling product aimed at adults 18+. Set a fixed session budget, avoid chasing missed shots, and remember that even a 97 % RTP leaves the house edge intact. If play stops being enjoyable, walk away or use the operator’s timeout tools.
