What are fish and arcade games?
Fish and arcade games are skill-flavoured, fast-paced titles where you aim, tap or time a single action instead of spinning reels. A fish shooter (also called a fish table) charges you per shot and pays per catch. An arcade or instant game resolves one drop, reveal or cash-out decision, such as a Plinko ball or a Mines tile. Both are free casino games in Gold Coin mode and sweepstakes casino games in Sweeps Coin mode.
The two families reward different things. A fish shooter rewards accuracy over an open-ended round with no fixed end. An arcade or instant game rewards a quick decision and finishes in a single action. Which one suits you depends on whether you want a session that builds shot by shot or a round that ends in under ten seconds.
The three groups of fish and arcade games at Betzy
Three groups cover the 141 titles: 23 fish shooters, 29 Plinko and mini games, and 89 instant and casual games. Each group has its own round structure, so each one clears a Sweeps Coin play-through in a different way.
Fish shooters
23 titles, known across the Southern US as fish tables. You fire at fish moving across the screen and each fish carries its own multiplier, so your stake is the cost of a shot rather than a fixed bet. As a worked example, if a shot costs 0.5 credits and you fire 40 shots, the session has cost 20 credits before any catch is counted.
JILI supplies 21 of them under its Shoot & Win series, including Mega Fishing, Ocean King Jackpot, Jackpot Fishooter, Lightning Fishooter, Dragon Shooter and Fortune Zombie. SP Games adds two, Fishermen Gold and Lustrous Ocean. The Fish category filter in the lobby returns one game, a live dealer dice table rather than a shooter, so the shooters are reached through the JILI and SP Games studio filters.
Plinko and mini games
29 titles built around a single mechanic each. CP Games supplies 21 mini games covering Plinko, Mines, Crash, Keno, Lucky Dice, Tower and Stairs. JILI adds 8 arcade titles, four of them Plinko builds (Plinko, Plinko Empire, Mummy Plinko and Plinko of Mine), with Boxing Extravaganza and Go For Champion alongside.
A round is one drop, one reveal or one cash-out decision. That makes these the quickest games in the lobby on which to clear a Sweeps Coin play-through.
Instant and casual games
89 titles, the largest single group on the page. Evoplay supplies 48 Instant games, including Hockey Shootout, the Penalty Shoot-Out series and Football Scratch. BGaming adds 40 casual titles plus Lucky Birds on the crash mechanic. Each one resolves in a single action with no second decision, so these are the shortest sessions of any family in the catalogue.
Fish and arcade games by studio
Five of Betzy's seven studios build for these two families, and they do not overlap: JILI owns the fish shooters, Evoplay and BGaming own the instant and casual range, and CP Games and JILI split the Plinko and mini-game builds. Several of these studios also build for licensed real-money operators, so the titles are the same builds you would meet elsewhere. What differs at a sweeps coins casino is the currency they run on.
Studio | Titles here | Weighted towards |
|---|---|---|
Evoplay | 48 | Instant games: Hockey Shootout, Penalty Shoot-Out, Football Scratch |
BGaming | 41 | Casual titles plus Lucky Birds on the crash mechanic |
JILI | 29 | 21 Shoot & Win fish shooters and 8 arcade titles, four of them Plinko |
CP Games | 21 | Mini games: Plinko, Mines, Crash, Keno, Lucky Dice, Tower |
SP Games | 2 | Fish games: Fishermen Gold and Lustrous Ocean |
How does Sweeps Coin mode work on a fish or arcade game?
Mode is chosen before the round, and the same game runs in both. What counts as a complete round differs by family. On a fish shooter, a complete round is a shooting session that ends when you stop firing or run the stake down, so the play-through clears over that session rather than on a single shot. On an arcade or instant game, the round is the single drop, reveal or cash-out.
In Gold Coin mode either family is entertainment, and Gold Coins never carry a prize outcome. In Sweeps Coin mode each round is a promotional sweepstakes entry, and a Sweeps Coin becomes Redeemable, worth $1.00 USD, once it has been wagered through one complete round. Free Sweeps Coins reach an account through the daily login bonus, promotions, the referral programme and a mail-in request. The full model is set out in how sweepstakes casinos work.
Finding fish and arcade games in the lobby
The category filters do not reach either family, so the studio filter is the working route. Three category results show the gap:
Fish returns one game, and it is a live dealer dice table (Fish Prawn Crab M), not a shooter.
Arcade returns nothing at all.
Crash returns one of the several crash titles the lobby holds.
The cause is that the category row reads studio-supplied tags that were never normalised, so a mechanic such as Plinko or a shooter never maps to a category. Use JILI for the fish shooters and Plinko, CP Games for the mini games, and Evoplay or BGaming for the instant and casual titles. Search by title works across the whole catalogue regardless of tag, and the filters behave the same way in the installed app as in the browser.
Stakes, play-through and redemption limits
Three states apply to every Sweeps Coin you hold. Unplayed means awarded but not yet wagered through a complete round, and it cannot be redeemed. Redeemable means the requirement has been met. Held means redeemable but under a compliance hold, an AML review or a fraud investigation, and Betzy notifies you by email when that happens.
The per-round stake matters more on a fish shooter than on any other family, because a shooting session accumulates cost shot by shot. Accounts whose lifetime Gold Coin purchases total under $500 may stake a maximum of 100 Sweeps Coins on any individual round, a limit set in the Policies for Withdrawal.
Redemption opens at 50 Sweeps Coins per request and is capped by VIP tier over a rolling 24 hours, from $300 at Bronze to $3,000 at Obsidian across ten tiers, under an absolute ceiling of 10,000 SC in any rolling 24 hours that applies to every tier. Sweeps Coins earned entirely through free routes carry separate caps in the Sweepstakes Redemption Rules: 20 SC baseline, 50 SC at Tier A and 5 SC at Tier B.
Betzy targets processing within 8 hours of submission. A compliance review can take up to 5 business days, and an ACH transfer adds 1 to 3 business days of bank settlement. Redemption is not instant, whatever the pace of the game that earned the Sweeps Coins. Every method and gate is set out on how to redeem Sweeps Coins.
What playing fish and arcade games at Betzy gets you
Four terms of the sweepstakes hold for every fish or arcade round, whichever studio built the game:
An equal free route. Gold Coin purchases are optional and carry no gameplay advantage. Free-entry players have the same chance of winning as players who buy.
A one-round play-through. A single completed round makes a Sweeps Coin Redeemable, with no multiple of your balance to clear.
A fixed prize value. Each Redeemable Sweeps Coin is worth $1.00 USD, and that figure does not move with your rank.
Rakeback on every round. The VIP programme pays 5% at Bronze and rises to 50% at Obsidian across ten tiers.
Safety, eligibility and what we do not claim
Age. 18 or older, and 21 or older where the jurisdiction requires it. One account per person.
States. Betzy's Terms and Conditions state that residents of Washington, Idaho and Nevada have no access, and that Michigan residents may play but may not redeem. Further states may be restricted and the list may be updated at any time as laws change. Checked 15 September 2026; see state availability.
Geo-circumvention. Using a VPN, a proxy or any anonymising technology to get around the restrictions is prohibited. Accounts doing so are suspended and pending redemptions are forfeited.
No published odds. The multiplier table, the return-to-player figure and the cost of a shot are visible inside a game and nowhere before it.
No certification claim. Betzy makes no RNG certification claim of its own platform and names no testing laboratory. Certification belongs to the studios that build the games. Betzy holds no gaming licence, and a promotional sweepstakes does not require one.
Betzy is entertainment. It is not a way to make money and it is not a way to solve a financial problem, and the pace of a fish table or a crash game changes neither of those. The National Problem Gambling Helpline is on 1-800-GAMBLER, by call or text, 24 hours a day, and the player controls are on the Responsible Gameplay page.

Frequently asked questions
How many fish and arcade games does Betzy have?
141: 23 fish shooters and 118 arcade, instant and mini games. By studio that is Evoplay 48, BGaming 41, JILI 29, CP Games 21 and SP Games 2. The category filters return far fewer, because some studio tags are not mapped to them.
What is a fish shooter?
A game that pays per catch rather than per spin. You shoot at fish crossing the screen, each carrying its own multiplier, and your stake is the cost of a shot in an open-ended round. Betzy holds 23, of which JILI builds 21 under its Shoot & Win series and SP Games two.
Does Betzy have Plinko?
Yes. There are five Plinko builds: four from JILI (Plinko, Plinko Empire, Mummy Plinko and Plinko of Mine) and one from CP Games, whose mini-game range also covers Mines, Crash, Keno and Lucky Dice. Reach them through the JILI and CP Games studio filters.
Can I play fish and arcade games for free at Betzy?
Yes, on either currency. Gold Coin play is always available and carries no prize outcome. Sweeps Coins are always obtainable without a purchase, and a round played with them is a sweepstakes entry that can lead to a prize.
Why do the Fish and Arcade filters return nothing?
The lobby's category row reads studio-supplied tags that were never normalised. The Fish filter returns a single live dealer dice table and the Arcade filter returns nothing, so the working route is the studio filter or a title search, both of which reach every game the catalogue holds.
What is the most I can stake on one round?
100 Sweeps Coins per individual game round while your lifetime Gold Coin purchases total under $500. Redemption limits are separate and are set by your VIP tier.
How long does a prize take to arrive?
Betzy targets 8 hours from submission. A compliance review can take up to 5 business days, and an ACH transfer adds 1 to 3 business days of bank settlement. It is not instant.
