JILI Fishing Games: How Mega Fishing and Jackpot Fishing Actually Work

Published 2 October 2026

By the Jilino1 Team

Slots get most of the attention, but the second-biggest game category on our platform is fishing — the arcade-style games where you aim a cannon at a screen full of sea creatures and every catch pays a multiple of your shot. We carry 223 of them from 15 different studios, and the play is anything but evenly spread.

JILI makes just 16 of those 223 games, yet they account for 74% of all fishing play on Jilino1. Two titles do most of the work: Mega Fishing and Jackpot Fishing together take just over half of every fishing game played here. This guide explains how a fishing game actually pays, what separates those two, what the rest of JILI's fishing lineup offers, and how to keep a fast game from running away with your balance. You can follow along in the fishing tab once you are signed in to our platform.

Why JILI Owns the Fishing Category Here

The figures in this guide come from our own lobby's play counts as of 2 October 2026. The clearest way to see JILI's grip on fishing is to set it beside KA, the studio with the largest fishing catalogue on our platform:

• KA — 119 fishing games, more than half of the category, and under 1% of fishing play
• JILI — 16 fishing games, and 74% of fishing play
• Mega Fishing and Jackpot Fishing — 2 games, and 51% of fishing play between them

A long catalogue is plainly not what players choose on. What they come back to is a handful of games that have been around long enough to feel familiar — JILI dates Jackpot Fishing to 2019 and Mega Fishing to 2021 — and that keep the screen busy with big targets, bonus wheels and jackpots you can see. Both also rank high in our overall JILI games ranking, which counts every game type: Mega Fishing is the sixth most-played JILI game of any kind on our platform, and Jackpot Fishing is ninth.

How a Fishing Game Pays, and Why It Is Not a Slot

A slot asks you to press spin and wait. A fishing game seats you at a shared table — other players' cannons sit around the same fishing ground — and asks you to keep shooting. The mechanics are simple once they are laid out:

• Every shot is a bet. Your bet level sets what each bullet costs, and you can raise or lower it between shots.
• Every fish carries a prize. Small fish pay small multiples of your bullet; large fish, bosses and special creatures pay far more.
• A hit is not a catch. Whether a shot captures the fish it lands on is decided at random by the game. Aiming decides which fish you spend bullets on, not whether a particular bullet succeeds.
• Special weapons and features change the pace. Torpedoes, railguns and freezes help with the large targets, and bonus wheels are where the big multipliers live.

The third point is the one to hold on to. A fishing game feels like a skill game because you are aiming, but each shot's outcome is still random — no timing or targeting trick changes the maths, exactly as on a slot. If you would rather have a slower rhythm and a single bonus round to wait for, our Golden Empire guide covers a slot that works that way. Otherwise, open the fishing tab on Jilino1 and watch a few rounds at the lowest bet level before you settle on a table.

Mega Fishing: Our Most-Played Fishing Game

Mega Fishing is the fishing game Filipino players pick most often on our platform, with 829,778 plays recorded in our lobby. JILI released it in January 2021 and lists its maximum win at 950x.

Its signature is the Special Octopus Wheel. JILI describes a Mega Octopus that keeps a prize reel spinning; when the wheel appears, its segments are multipliers, and the top one matches that 950x ceiling. The rest of the fishing ground is built from named creatures, each with its own trick:

• Giant Prize Fish — can land with a 5x multiplier on top of its normal prize
• Giant Anglerfish — shoots electricity to open treasure chests
• Giant crocodiles — wake up and hunt the other fish, building a prize as they go
• Torpedo and railgun — special weapons for bringing down the large sea monsters

On screen, the special weapons are buttons down the right edge — torpedo, railgun and freeze — with AUTO and AIM beside your cannon at the bottom. Mega Fishing also has a close sibling: Happy Fishing, released two months later, uses the same Octopus Wheel and the same 950x ceiling, and adds a Gem Turtle with an 8x Super Prize plus a bonus reel that can upgrade into a gold reel.

Jackpot Fishing: The 2019 Original Still in Second Place

Jackpot Fishing is the older game — JILI released it in September 2019 — and it still draws 682,939 plays on our platform, second only to Mega Fishing. Where Mega Fishing caps its top prize at a fixed 950x, JILI lists Jackpot Fishing's maximum win simply as Jackpot: the biggest prize here is a jackpot rather than a multiplier.

JILI's own description is short. Every species on the fishing ground carries its own prize, a target-and-lockdown system lets you single out the fish you want, and high-value species can appear anywhere, with a random extra 5x multiplier possible when you capture one. The features JILI lists are the Jackpot and the Jackpot Wheel, and its game page also shows a Jackpot Dragon crossing the fishing ground.

The jackpot meters sit along the top of the screen the whole time you play. Down the right edge you will find the Target button, Auto Fishing and a freeze.

Jackpot Fishing 2

JILI released a sequel, Jackpot Fishing 2, in January 2026, and it reached our lobby that March. JILI lists a 4,800x maximum win, says any fish can trigger its Bonus Game — where wins build through Lock & Respin — and adds a Caishen boss. It is still new here, with 8,990 plays so far, so it has not had the long run the two older games have.

Mega Fishing vs Jackpot Fishing vs Their Sequels

Play counts are our lobby's figures as of 2 October 2026. JILI does not publish an RTP for any of these four on its game pages, and we are not going to fill that gap with a number we cannot trace back to JILI. If RTP matters to your choice, open the game's info screen in the lobby and read it there.

The Rest of JILI's Fishing Lineup

JILI's other twelve fishing games run the same basic loop with a different theme and centrepiece. Here they are in order of play on our platform, with the maximum win and release date JILI gives for each:

• All-Star Fishing — up to 1,200x; All-Stars, a Naga Boss and a Bonus Wheel (December 2021)
• Crazy Hunter — up to 2,000x; an Ice Dragon, Golden Pigs and a Gold Treasure Hold (December 2023)
• Ocean King Jackpot — the top prize is a jackpot (December 2023)
• Bombing Fish, listed in our lobby as Bombing Fishing — up to 1,200x; a Bounty Game (December 2023)
• Dinosaur Tycoon — up to 1,500x; a Flying Dragon Wheel (January 2020)
• Boom Legend — up to 1,400x; a Jackpot Crocodile, a Furious Octopus and a Cerberus Wheel (April 2021)
• Fortune King Jackpot — a God of Wealth bonus and a Super Dragon Tiger Cannon; JILI's page quotes both 2,800x and 3,400x, so check the game itself (2024)
• Dinosaur Tycoon II — the top prize is a jackpot; a 3D remake with a Capsule Toy feature (March 2023)
• Royal Fishing — JILI's entry-level fishing game; no overall maximum is published, but its Money Dragon King boss can trigger a multiplier wheel worth up to 350x (2019)
• Dragon Fortune — up to 800x; a Crystal Bonus and a Prize Multiplier (June 2020)
• Fortune Zombie — up to 2,500x; zombie shooting with boss battles (2025)
• Circus Jackpot — up to 4,800x across three modes: a Jester hat worth up to 4,400x, a Tiger King worth 4,800x and a Wild Hog worth up to 2,500x (2025)

Notice that the most-played games are not the ones with the biggest ceilings. Circus Jackpot and Jackpot Fishing 2 both list 4,800x — five times Mega Fishing's 950x — and they are the two least-played JILI fishing games here, partly because both are recent arrivals. A higher number on the info screen describes the rarest possible outcome, not a typical session, so it is not by itself a reason to switch games.

Check the Provider Label Before You Play

A few games from other studios in our lobby carry names close to JILI's fishing titles. Ocean king 2 is a fishing game from MT, not a sequel to JILI's Ocean King Jackpot. The two games called Happy Fish, from BNG and from SBP, are slots, and Fish Hunting: Happy Fish 5 is a fishing game from JOKER — neither is JILI's Happy Fishing. Dragon Fortune from KM is a slot that shares only its name with JILI's fishing game. None of the figures on this page apply to them, so read the provider label on the game tile, or filter the fishing tab by JILI, before you play.

Which JILI Fishing Game Should You Play?

You want a clear ceiling and plenty happening on screen

Start with Mega Fishing. Its 950x maximum is fixed and stated, the Octopus Wheel shows you exactly what it can pay, and the named creatures keep something happening all the time. It is also the game most Filipino players on our platform settle on, so it is a natural first table — open Mega Fishing on Jilino1 and look at the wheel's segments before you raise your bet.

You want a jackpot to chase

Jackpot Fishing is the long-standing choice, with its meters on screen the whole time. Ocean King Jackpot and Dinosaur Tycoon II also put a jackpot at the top of their prize ladders if you want the same idea with a different look.

You want the newest games and the highest ceilings

Jackpot Fishing 2 and Circus Jackpot both list 4,800x. Jackpot Fishing 2 lets any fish start its Bonus Game, while Circus Jackpot splits its play into three modes. Both are recent, so expect fewer players at the tables than on the older games.

You have never played a fishing game

JILI itself bills Royal Fishing as its entry-level fishing game, and Happy Fishing keeps Mega Fishing's wheel in a lighter package. Either is a gentle way to learn how bet levels and special weapons work before you move to the busier tables.

A fishing game has no spin button to slow you down: you can fire as fast as you tap, and every bullet is a bet. Decide your budget and the bet level you will stay at before you sit down, and be careful with AUTO, which keeps your cannon firing until you switch it off. If a session starts to feel like chasing, step away — our responsible gaming page has the tools and helplines.
