Slot Summary

In 2013, Jack Hammer 2 returned NetEnt's comic detective as the lead in a sequel subtitled Fishy Business. The game extends that identity through Respin Locking Win, which holds each winning symbol while the remaining positions spin again, and through Free Spins that double line wins. Its 97.07% RTP and low volatility place the emphasis on repeated locked results rather than a single outsized prize claim.

How It Plays

The base loop changes whenever a line win lands. Those winning symbols stay in place, the remaining positions spin again, and newly added winners also lock.

This sequence stops only when the respin fails to extend the combination. The accumulated locked result is then paid before the game returns to an ordinary spin.

Theme & Atmosphere

Comics and Detective themes define the presentation, with Jack cast against a Mafia threat in a Mystery story carrying the Fishy Business subtitle.

Action & Adventure cues keep the story moving between regular play and Free Spins, while the Cartoon treatment prevents the crime plot from becoming visually severe.

Features & Win Potential

Respin Locking Win turns each completed payline into a possible chain of locked symbols. A Wild Symbol can support those combinations before the remaining positions respin.

The 97% RTP and Low volatility profile distinguish the mathematical setup, favoring the locked-respin cycle as the game's recurring feature rather than a rare jackpot event.

Free Spins Wild Symbol 5 Reels Low volatility RTP range 97% RTP Respin Locking Win

Bonus & Free Spins

Landing at least 5 Free Spin symbols opens the round. Wins keep the triggering bet level, while every payline award during Free Spins is doubled.

Additional Free Spins are awarded when at least 5 Free Spin symbols appear again, allowing the doubled-win rule to remain active for longer.

How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (Low). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (97.07%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (1,000×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
