Blueprint Gaming mobile slots

Who Blueprint Gaming is

Blueprint Gaming was founded in 2001 and is headquartered in Newark, Nottinghamshire. The German Merkur Group, previously known as the Gauselmann Group, took an equity stake in 2008 and full ownership in 2012. Blueprint’s website says its companies are licensed and regulated in Great Britain by the Gambling Commission under account number 6516; it also holds an Alderney licence, and its Malta entity is licensed by the Malta Gaming Authority.

That makes Blueprint one of the few major slot suppliers with its headquarters in England, and its catalogue reflects a British audience. Fishing, ancient Egypt, classic fruit symbols and well-known TV and film brands appear again and again, and some releases are produced specifically for the UK market.

The Fishin’ Frenzy series on your phone

Fishin’ Frenzy is Blueprint’s signature franchise. The original is a 5x3 game with 10 paylines, a published RTP of 96.12%, medium volatility and a 5,000x maximum. In free spins, a fisherman symbol collects the values shown on fish symbols, a format that has since spread across the industry and which our page on fishing slots in apps compares.

On a phone the series is about as easy to follow as slots get. Large symbols on three rows, ten fixed lines and one feature to understand mean the game reads clearly in portrait, even on a small handset. Blueprint’s website lists spin-offs including Fishin’ Frenzy Lure ’Em In and Fishin’ Frenzy The Big Match as UK-only releases, and there is also a Fishin’ Frenzy Megaways version with up to 15,625 ways and higher volatility.

The many Fishin’ Frenzy variants share the same look but not the same maths. Check each one’s RTP, volatility and maximum win in the rules before you assume it plays like the original.

Jackpot King: Blueprint’s progressive jackpot on mobile

Jackpot King is a progressive jackpot that Blueprint attaches to selected games. Titles carrying the Jackpot King label feed a shared prize pool, and players on those games can reach a separate jackpot round where the progressive and smaller fixed prizes are decided. The exact trigger and prize ladder are set out in each game’s rules.

In an app, Jackpot King versions usually appear as separate tiles from the standard game, often with a crown or Jackpot King badge, and the current jackpot value scrolls above the reels. The jackpot contribution is part of the game’s RTP, so the return from ordinary spins on a jackpot version is lower than on a non-jackpot one. Our page on jackpot slots apps explains this trade-off in detail.

Branded and TV tie-in slots

Blueprint holds licences for a number of entertainment brands. The Goonies, with 20 paylines and a published 96.00% RTP, and Ted Megaways, with up to 117,649 ways and a 50,000x maximum, are two of the best known in UK lobbies, and the studio’s website also lists a Game of Thrones slot.

Branded games often have several bonus features tied to scenes or characters, which can make the paytable long. On a phone, scroll through the rules once before playing so you know which symbols trigger what. A familiar film does not change the house edge; it is still a slot designed to return less than it takes over time.

Blueprint’s Megaways slots, made under licence

Blueprint uses the Megaways mechanic under a licence from Big Time Gaming. Its Megaways versions include Fishin’ Frenzy Megaways, Ted Megaways, Buffalo Rising Megaways and Eye of Horus Megaways. The reels change height every spin, so the number of ways to win shifts constantly.

Blueprint’s Megaways layouts are often smaller than BTG’s own. Fishin’ Frenzy Megaways and Eye of Horus Megaways allow up to 15,625 ways, using six reels of up to five symbols, compared with the 117,649 ways of a full seven-symbol layout. On a phone, fewer symbols per reel means each one is larger and easier to read in portrait.

Blueprint RTP versions and what they cost you

Blueprint supplies many games in several RTP versions, and the gaps can be wide. Our slot facts show The Big Catch at 95.32% with a 92% version also in circulation, and Eye of Horus Megaways at 95.49% with 90%, 92% and 93% versions. The game looks identical whichever one your casino runs.

Put that in pounds. Staking 20p a spin for 500 spins means £100 in total stakes. At 95.5% the long-run average return is £95.50, an expected cost of £4.50. At 90% it is £90, an expected cost of £10. Over a single session either result could be much better or worse, but across months of play the version matters. Our guide to finding a slot’s RTP in an app shows where to look.

1. Open the Blueprint game from the lobby.
2. Tap the menu or question-mark icon.
3. Open the game rules or help pages.
4. Find the line stating the theoretical return to player.
5. Compare it with the top figure for that game before you commit a budget.

UK rules in Blueprint games

As a UK-based studio, Blueprint builds its games for the British rules. There is no autoplay, no turbo or slam-stop, and each spin lasts at least 2.5 seconds. Stakes are capped at £5 per spin for players aged 25 and over and £2 for those aged 18 to 24. Bonus buy features are not offered in Great Britain, and wins smaller than the stake are not celebrated with sounds or animations. Free-play demos are only available once your age has been verified.

How to find Blueprint Gaming slots in a UK app

4. Check whether you have opened the standard version or the Jackpot King version, as they appear as separate tiles.
5. Add your choice to favourites for quicker access.
