Mermaid Fishing is one of the most popular arcade-style fishing games available on nowbet — and for good reason. It combines the thrill of real-time shooting mechanics with the visual spectacle of an underwater fantasy world, giving Filipino players a gaming experience that's genuinely different from your standard slot or table game.
The concept is straightforward: you control a cannon, aim at sea creatures swimming across the screen, and earn coins based on the value of each target you hit. The bigger and rarer the creature, the bigger the reward. Simple to pick up, but with enough depth — pun intended — to keep you coming back for more.
At nowbet, Mermaid Fishing is available around the clock with no download required on desktop. Filipino players from Manila to Cebu and Davao can jump straight into the action using their browser, or download the nowbet mobile app for an even smoother experience on the go.
The game supports Philippine Peso (₱) natively, so there's no confusion about currency conversion. Minimum bets start at just ₱10, making it accessible whether you're a casual player or a high-roller looking for serious multipliers.

Mermaid Fishing uses a coin-based betting system. Before each shot, you set your bet amount — this determines both the cost of firing your cannon and the value of every creature you catch. Higher bets mean higher payouts, but also faster coin consumption if you miss.
Smart players at nowbet typically start in the Beginner room to get a feel for creature movement patterns before moving up to Standard or VIP rooms where the real multipliers live. The Mermaid Jackpot Bonus, for example, is only available in Standard rooms and above.
All winnings are credited directly to your nowbet wallet in Philippine Peso and can be withdrawn instantly via GCash or PayMaya — no waiting around, no complicated processes. Players in Quezon City, Makati, Cebu, and Davao have all reported same-day withdrawals with no issues.
Mermaid Jackpot Bonus available in Standard and VIP rooms only.
Know your targets. Each creature in Mermaid Fishing carries a different multiplier — here's the full breakdown.
| Creature | Rarity | Multiplier | Special Ability | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small Fish | Common | 2x – 5x | None | Fast-moving, low value — good for warming up |
| Starfish | Common | 3x – 8x | None | Slow-moving, easy target for beginners |
| Pufferfish | Common | 5x – 12x | Explodes on death, hits nearby fish | Chain kill potential — aim carefully |
| Octopus | Rare | 10x – 25x | Ink cloud slows cannon briefly | High value but tricky to hit consistently |
| Sea Turtle | Rare | 15x – 30x | Shell absorbs 2 shots before dying | Use upgraded cannon for efficiency |
| Electric Eel | Rare | 20x – 40x | Lightning chain hits 3 nearby fish | Best value in Standard room |
| Shark | Epic | 30x – 80x | Charges across screen — hard to track | Use torpedo shot for best results |
| Giant Crab | Epic | 40x – 100x | Spawns smaller crabs when hit | Bonus coins from spawned crabs |
| Sea Dragon | Epic | 60x – 150x | Triggers mini bonus round on death | VIP room exclusive appearance |
| Mermaid | Legendary | 100x – 500x | Activates Mermaid Jackpot Bonus | The ultimate target — highest payout in the game |
Multipliers are applied to your active bet amount per shot. Actual payouts may vary based on room type and active promotions on nowbet.
Strategies from experienced nowbet players to help you fish smarter, not harder.
Even if you're an experienced player, spend a few minutes in the Beginner room to study creature movement patterns before committing bigger bets in Standard or VIP rooms.
The Pufferfish explosion mechanic can take out multiple nearby fish in one shot. Position your cannon to catch clusters of small fish near a Pufferfish for maximum coin efficiency.
Don't waste torpedo shots and freeze bombs on common fish. Hold them for Boss Creature events and the Sea Dragon — that's where the real multipliers are hiding.
A common mistake is maxing out your bet immediately. Keep your bet at 5–10% of your session budget per shot so you have enough firepower to stay in the game when the Mermaid appears.
Rare and Epic creatures often enter from the screen edges at higher speeds. Keep your peripheral attention on the sides of the screen so you don't miss high-value targets.
Touch controls on the nowbet app give you faster reaction times than a mouse on desktop. Filipino players who switched to mobile report noticeably better hit rates on fast-moving targets.
