Fish, prawn, crab, rooster, gourd and coin are the six faces of the dice in a gambling game played across Vietnam, Thailand and southern China, and PG Soft turned them into slot symbols for this May 2022 release. A porcelain bowl above the reels keeps the multiplier, and the 10,000 ways below it pay on most spins; in my demo at 12.00, 139 of 180 spins returned something. Most of those wins were small, though, and the session ended 471.60 down.
Same game, real money
Cafe Casino runs the same Win Win Fish Prawn Crab with the same math and adds a welcome bonus for players from the United States:
300% up to $2,000 + 150 FS 18+ · T&Cs apply · the demo stays free180 spins, 139 wins
My recording ran for 180 spins instead of the usual 100, all of them real according to the balance. They cost 2,160.00 and returned 1,688.40, and the demo finished on 99,528.40.
| Measure | Value |
|---|---|
| Winning spins | 139 of 180 |
| Wins below the 12.00 stake | 99 |
| Longest losing run | 4 spins |
| Best spins | 108.60, 87.00, 72.00, 64.80 |
| Lowest balance | 99,345.40 |
| Balance after spin 100 | 99,556.00 |
So the game paid often and lost slowly: never more than four empty spins in a row, but most wins returned less than the bet, and the seven spins above 36.00 were not enough to cover it.

Dice faces on 10,000 ways
The outer reels carry four symbols and the inner four carry five, which multiplies out to 10,000 ways. Wins pay from the left, then explode and cascade. Three dice marked WILD form the wild, which substitutes for everything except the round Free Spins symbol.
| Symbol | 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 per way |
|---|---|
| Wild die | 10 / 15 / 20 / 40 |
| Rooster | 5 / 10 / 15 / 20 |
| Crab | 5 / 8 / 10 / 15 |
| Coin, gourd | 4 / 5 / 6 / 8 |
| Prawn, fish | 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 |
| A, K | 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 |
| Q, J | 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 |
Each point is 0.60 on my 12.00 bet. Six of a kind on a single way pays at most 12.00 for a rooster, one stake, so the game pays through many ways at once and through the bowl.
The bowl multiplier
The bowl above the reels starts every spin at x1. After each winning round of a cascade it rises by one, so the second round is paid at x2, the third at x3 and so on, with no upper limit in the rules. Spin 177 opened with 6.00 at x1, then a 10.80 second round was doubled to 21.60.
Round three made the difference: 27.00, led by a column of coins, tripled to 81.00.
That took the spin to 108.60, nine stakes and the best result of the session; the bowl moved on to x4, but nothing else paid.
Free spins with lives
The bonus does not count spins. Three, four or five Free Spins symbols give three, four or five lives, and each free spin costs a life. A free spin that wins refills the lives to the full number, so the round lasts as long as the wins keep coming, and the bowl multiplier is never reset during it. No three of them landed together in 180 spins, so this is taken from the rules.
