PHJOY Fishing Games: How a Shot Is Priced and Which Rewards Count Fish
PHJOY fishing games run on their own Fish tab, and every shot you fire is a separate real-money bet in pesos. You keep spending for as long as you keep firing, so the stake you set per shot decides how far a balance goes. Rewards add a second question, because not every PHJOY reward counts fish play, and one that carries JILI’s name does not.
PHJOY Fishing Games Are Cannon Shooters, Not Fishing-Themed Slots
A fish game gives you a cannon and a screen of moving fish, and you choose which fish takes each shot. A fishing-themed slot only borrows the ocean for artwork and still spins reels.
Fish games and slots differ in what one bet is, what you control and what ends a session, and each difference lands on your budget in a different way.
| Aspect | Fish game | Fishing-themed slot | What it means for your budget |
|---|---|---|---|
| What one bet is | One shot, billed as a separate bet each time you fire | One spin, billed once and settled when the reels stop | A fish session holds as many bets as shots fired |
| What you control | The cannon level and which fish takes each shot | The stake before each spin | In a fish game the level sets the cost of every shot that follows |
| What ends a session | You stop firing; there is no round to finish | Each spin resolves before the next one starts | In a fish game your budget is the only natural stopping point |
The Fish tab holds the PHJOY fishing games, and we ask you to set a spending budget before you play. In a game that charges by the shot, that budget converts directly into a number of shots.
Each Shot Costs the Cannon Level and Pays the Fish Multiplier
Fish titles price each shot at your cannon level, the setting that fixes how many pesos one shot takes from your balance. You can change the level while you play, so your next shot costs whatever level is set when you fire.
For illustration, a ₱500 balance buys 250 shots at a ₱2 level and 50 shots at a ₱10 level, so the higher level uses the same balance up five times faster.
Special weapons and auto modes change the pace at which a balance drains. Some titles price a weapon above the base cannon and hand out others at no extra cost, and an auto mode keeps firing at your current level for as long as the mode runs.
Each fish carries a multiplier, the number your cannon level is multiplied by when you hit that fish. A fish worth fifty times your level returns ₱100 at a ₱2 level, which repays the cost of fifty shots.
Titles sort targets into kinds, and the kind decides how a payout is stated and which rule screen settles the details.
| Target kind | How a game states the payout | What the game rules settle |
|---|---|---|
| Standard fish | A multiplier of your cannon level | The multiplier each fish carries |
| Boss | A range of multipliers, in some titles rising with attacks or captures | The range and what makes it rise |
| Effect fish and crabs | A bonus effect on top of the catch, such as hitting nearby fish | Which fish the effect reaches |
| Jackpot-draw fish | A chance at a jackpot prize draw, in titles that run one | Whether the prize is fixed or progressive |
Pick the level by dividing your budget by it: ₱10 turns ₱500 into 50 shots, and the same fish pays five times more per catch than at ₱2, so a higher level trades more payout per catch for fewer shots to catch anything.
A Random Number Generator Decides Each Result, and RTP Describes the Long Run
Aim and chance split the work on every shot: you choose which fish receives the shot, and a random number generator decides whether the shot lands. JILI’s published rules for one fish title state that the generator sets every result and that visual effects do not influence the outcome.
Across many shots, return to player, or RTP, is the long-run share of wagers a game is set to give back, and a title’s RTP and bet limits are set per casino configuration. Read the figure on the game’s own information screen where one is shown, and set aside any number quoted for another casino.
Providers Behind the Fishing Games at PHJOY and the Titles Each Supplies
The PHJOY fish games come from twenty providers, more than any other lobby tab, since Live has twelve and Slots ten. Two of them, JILI and JDB, get a profile here because each treats fish games as a core line.
Beyond those two, Fa Chai adds Star Hunter, FastSpin brings Bounty Fishing, Ocean Carnival and Fishing Treasure, L365 supplies Ocean King 3, and CQ9, AceWin and KA Gaming sit among the rest.
JILI: Arcade Aiming and Weapon Upgrades
Fishing is a core category in JILI’s catalog, and JILI’s cannon titles pair arcade-style aiming with weapon upgrades, so the creatures you capture decide what you are paid. Among the fishing games at PHJOY, Ocean King Jackpot is the first tile of the Fish tab, and Jackpot Fishing and Jackpot Fishing 2 sit in the top row.
Mega Fishing, Happy Fishing, Circus Jackpot, Dinosaur Tycoon, Dinosaur Tycoon II and Fortune King Jackpot also run in the tab.
JDB: Fish Shooting as a Stated Specialty
JDB calls itself a specialist in fish shooting game development, and JDB titles run in several Asian markets, the Philippines among them. The fishing games at PHJOY include two JDB titles, Cai Shen Fishing and Shade Dragons Fishing.
Between them, JILI and JDB cover the arcade-cannon side and the fish-shooting-specialist side of the fishing games at PHJOY, and the other eighteen providers widen the choice.
Which PHJOY Rewards Count Fish Play and Which Do Not
Rewards add a layer on top of the titles themselves. Only rewards whose terms name a game category appear below, and the table answers one question: does fish play count toward each reward?
| Reward | Counts fish play? | What the terms say |
|---|---|---|
| First Deposit Bonus | Yes | The turnover requirement, the amount you must bet before the bonus becomes withdrawable, counts slot and fish bets only. |
| Register & Download | Yes | Open to new members who have not deposited, and the bonus counts slot and fish bets. |
| Bet on, Win on and Lose on Slot, Fish & Poker | Yes | Each reward covers the Slot, Fish & Poker category, and you claim the reward in the Reward Center the next day. |
| 1 Minute Cashback | Yes | The cashback rate table lists Fish as a separate row, equal to Slot at every bet tier and above Live, Sports and Poker. |
| Spin on JILI & PG Slot | No | The reward counts spins on JILI and PG slots only. |
JILI fish titles therefore count toward Bet on, Win on and Lose on Slot, Fish & Poker but not toward Spin on JILI & PG Slot, because the reward’s name points to two studios while the terms point to slots.
A new member holding Register & Download should keep to slot and fish games, since a bet on poker, sports, live or exclusive games forfeits the bonus and every profit made with the bonus.
FAQ
Three answers below cover what the sections above leave out: other names for the format, how the balance gets funded, and who may play.
Are PHJOY Fish Games the Same as Fish Hunter and Fish Table Games?
They are one format. Fish hunter, fish shooting and fish table are different names for the same cannon-and-fish game, so PHJOY fish hunter games are the titles in the Fish tab.
Can I Fund PHJOY Fishing Games With GCash or Maya?
Yes. PHJOY accepts six deposit methods, GCash, Maya, GCashQR, GCASHPAY2, GrabPay and Online Banking through UnionBank, and each fish shot comes out of the peso balance your deposit funds.
Do I Need to Be 18 to Play Fishing Games at PHJOY?
Yes. PHJOY asks every member to confirm they are 18 years old on both the Register and Login screens, and the same confirmation states that you have read the Terms and Services.
What Fishing Games at PHJOY Cost and Which Rewards Count the Shots
Fishing games at PHJOY charge by the shot, so every session starts with one sum: your budget divided by the cannon level. Rewards add a second sum, because their terms name the categories they count. Before the first shot, read the title’s rules screen for the first sum and the Promotion page for the second.
