Fish Table Games Guide: How to Play & Where to Start

How Fish Table Games Work

Fish table games are arcade-style shooters. You control a cannon at the edge of the screen and fire at fish, sea creatures and bosses swimming past. Every shot uses Gold Coins, and every target you capture pays out based on its value — small fish are easy to catch and pay a little, while bosses take many hits and pay much more.

Key Features to Know

• Rooms: each room sets the Gold Coin value of a shot, so you can pick your pace.
• Boss creatures: dragons, krakens and other big targets with the largest rewards.
• Special weapons: bombs, lasers and chain lightning that hit several targets at once.
• Multiplayer tables: you share the screen with other players in real time.

Fish Table Tips

1. Start low. Learn how each target moves in a lower-value room before moving up.
2. Pick your targets. Aim at fish you can capture reliably instead of spraying shots.
3. Watch the bosses. A boss that has already taken lots of hits may be close to being captured.
4. Use special weapons on crowds. They're most effective when targets are bunched together.
5. Set a budget. Decide how many Gold Coins you'll use before each session.
