Metaphorically speaking, a fat cat is a very wealthy business person; but this online slot game combines both the metaphorical and the literal, so basically it centers around the theme of a very well-fed feline that appears to be bathing in cash. The backdrop is just littered in mounds of gold coins and piles of dollar bills., and on the reels you will get to see the fat cat himself. He’s purple, wears sunglasses and a massive gold chain with a ‘$’ sign. The graphics are nice, but they lack any of the latest bells and whistles you may be used to seeing in modern slots. There isn’t an soundtrack to accompany gameplay either, unless you land a winning combination.
This brings us to the game’s layout, which features the standard 5 reels and 3 rows, and the grid comes with a total of 20 active paylines, and these are fixed so you will not have the opportunity to regulate them. On the bright side, though, stakes start moderately low and enjoy a pretty flexible range. The minimum bet will only set you back a total of 20p per single spin and if you decide to explore the other extreme, the maximum bet will cost you £200 per spin. Keep in mind that there’s also a very attractive jackpot of 6,000 coins.
Special Features
Wild
The Fat Cat symbol is Wild on these reels, and also the highest paying icon. With its help you can potentially pocket the 6,000 coin jackpot we mentioned earlier, but more important is the fact that the Wild can substitute for the other symbols to help form winning sequences. It can also appear in just about any position on the five reels, at any point during gameplay. However, the Wild cannot replace the Scatter symbol.
Fat Cat also boasts two whole special features and one of them is the Bonus Round. To trigger it, you will again need to look out for the Wild symbol. More specifically, you will need to land the Wild on both reels 1 and 5 at the same time. Once this is done, you will have to match any prize in order to win the displayed prize. In addition, you can also reveal multipliers of up to 5x which will multiply your prize by the number shown. If you happen to reveal more than just one multiplier, they will be added together.
Scatter
Last but not least, this slot game also provides a good old Freespins feature. You can trigger it by landing 3, 4 or 5 Scatter symbols simultaneously during a spin which will award you a total of 10 free spins with a multiplier of 3x. The multiplier will apply to all free spins winnings with the exception of those from the Bonus Round. In addition, you can also retrigger the feature and gain an extra 10 free spins on top. To do this, simply land another 3 Scatter symbols minimum at the same time during the bonus round.

Verdict
Fat Cat doesn’t exactly strive to impress or stun with an extravagant theme or stellar graphics, but it has two solid special features that can both deliver very decent wins. Plus, the medium variance of this title will ensure you get to trigger them at regular intervals.
