Lobstermania 2 is IGT’s 2014 follow-up to their popular Maine lobster fishing slot, expanding the original with 40 paylines, an animated Lucky Larry lobster wild, and a buoy bonus feature that adds a Hold and Spin mechanic to the Free Spins structure. The result is a more fully featured game that keeps the light-hearted coastal charm of its predecessor.

The game plays on 40 paylines with bets from $0.40 to $200 per spin. The adventure theme centres on lobster fishing off the Maine coast: Lucky Larry the lobster anchors the paytable as the central wild symbol, with fishing boats, buoys, and coastal imagery filling the rest of the reel set. The animated Larry wild snapping into position is one of the game’s most distinctive visual moments.

The Lucky Larry lobster wild substitutes for regular symbols across the 40 paylines, and Free Spins are triggered by scatter landings. The buoy bonus adds a Hold and Spin element: bonus buoys lock in place and award additional prizes or spins during the Hold and Spin phase. The combination of Free Spins with buoy locking creates a two-part bonus structure where the Hold and Spin element can extend session value beyond a standard free-games round.

Lobstermania 2 carries a 96.21% RTP and is medium volatility. The 40-payline structure keeps base-game hits regular, and the dual-bonus structure — Free Spins plus Hold and Spin — gives the game two distinct reward pathways. The maximum win caps at 500x your stake.

Lobstermania 2 suits players who enjoy the approachable IGT style with a bonus structure that offers variety. The buoy Hold and Spin mechanic adds a layer of interaction that makes the feature rounds more engaging than pure spin-count bonuses.
