Alaskan Fishing
If you ever watch the National Geographic Channel, you undoubtedly know how great the state of Alaska is. Everything there is bigger, colder, and meaner than almost anywhere in the world. Alaska is a state of wilderness, and even activities such as fishing are made dangerous, requiring participants to carry handguns to fend off the bears that run rampant.
Microgaming’s Alaskan Fishing pokie is an example of the fun and excitement of fishing in the dangerous waters of Alaska, and it strives to accurately portray all aspects of this sport. Does it do a good job?
Graphics and Animations
Alaskan Fishing is a fun looking, 5 reel video pokie that features hand drawn 2D graphics that showcases salmon, bears, eagles, fishing reels, and more. The graphic all feel very appropriate for this style of pokie.

Animations are equally nice, as the game features movement from the bears, eagles, and the fisherman who is trying to reel in the record holding salmon. The game’s movements are all very fluid, and I did not experience any instances of sluggishness or lag while playing Alaskan Fishing.
Gameplay
Playing Alaskan Fishing, I became enamored with the 243 Ways to Win paylines, Full Reel Wilds, Free Spins, and Pick’em Bonus Games. I was so awestruck to this game that I ended up spending several hours spinning the reels, and I came out quite far ahead.
The Full Reel Wilds are nice, as they allowed me to string together huge wins where I would otherwise be stuck taking a loss. Additionally, the Pick’em Bonus was also very good to me, as I was able to secure some very good wins. The least productive of these features for me was the Free Spins, which didn’t get a lot of money into my bankroll for me (this seems to always happen to me. I guess I am a Wild and Pick’em guy).
