Must be 21 years or older to play. Please gamble responsibly.

What Is Star Fishing?

Star Fishing is an arcade-style fishing game developed by JILI Games — the leading game studio in the PAGCOR-licensed Philippine online casino ecosystem. Unlike traditional slot machines, Star Fishing is a skill-influenced game where players control a cannon to shoot at fish swimming across the screen. Each fish has a different point value, and your goal is to catch the highest-value targets while managing your ammunition budget efficiently.

At ph98, Star Fishing is available in a multiplayer format that supports up to four simultaneous players. This competitive element adds a uniquely social dimension — you might be shooting the same boss fish as another player from Cebu while you're playing from Quezon City. The first to land the killing shot collects the reward, which creates genuine tension and excitement that pure slot games simply can't replicate.

The game's visual theme is set in a fantastical underwater world filled with starfish, giant crabs, electric eels, dragon fish, and mythological sea creatures drawn from both East Asian and Philippine maritime folklore. The soundtrack is energetic and arcade-like — reminiscent of the classic fish shooting games found in amusement centers across Manila's SM malls, but reimagined for online play with real PHP winnings.

Star Fishing at ph98 runs at a certified 96.5% RTP, which is notably high for an arcade category game. The game supports bet sizes from ₱1 per shot up to ₱500 per shot, making it accessible to both casual players and high-stakes enthusiasts across the Philippines.

Weapons & Cannon Upgrades

Star Fishing at ph98 gives you multiple cannon types to choose from. Your choice of weapon directly affects how efficiently you catch fish — especially the high-value boss targets.

Standard Cannon

Single-shot, low cost per bullet. Best for small-to-mid fish. Ideal for players starting out or managing their budget carefully. Good hit rate on stationary and slow targets.

Rapid Fire Cannon

Multi-shot burst with slightly lower individual damage. Excellent for catching fast-moving fish schools. Costs more per second but covers a wider spread — useful during fish rush waves.

Torpedo Launcher

Single high-damage projectile that explodes on impact, dealing area damage. The go-to weapon for boss fights and densely packed fish groups. Higher cost per shot but dramatically increases kill probability on the Dragon Fish and Star Boss.

Freeze Cannon

Temporarily slows target fish, making them easier to hit. Especially powerful for catching the Crystal Whale during Star Storm events, which move very quickly and are otherwise hard to land shots on.

Star Cannon (Special)

Unlocked during the Star Storm bonus event. Fires star-shaped projectiles that bounce between nearby targets, potentially catching multiple fish with a single shot. Very high burst potential during the event window.

Phoenix Blaster (Boss Mode)

Activated exclusively in Boss Rush rounds. Maximum damage output with bonus fire damage that deals continuous damage per second. Reserved for the Star Boss and Crystal Whale — saves ammunition compared to rapid-firing standard rounds at bosses.

Login or Register at ph98
Access ph98 via your mobile browser — no app download needed. Sign in to your existing account or register with your mobile number. Complete KYC verification as required under PAGCOR compliance standards by submitting a valid Philippine government ID (PhilSys, UMID, Passport, or Driver's License).

Fund Your Account
Deposit via GCash, PayMaya, BPI, BDO, or Metrobank. Minimum deposit is ₱100. E-wallet deposits reflect instantly so you can start playing within seconds of topping up.

Navigate to the Fishing Games Lobby
In the ph98 casino lobby, look for the Arcade or Fishing Games category. Tap the Star Fishing thumbnail to load the game. It runs directly in your mobile browser — no lag, no installation.

Set Your Cannon Bet Size
Choose your bet per shot — from ₱1 to ₱500. Higher bets amplify your per-fish payout but also increase cost per shot. Most casual ph98 players in Cebu and Davao start at ₱5–₱20 per shot to explore the game mechanics.

Aim, Shoot, and Collect
Tap or click to aim your cannon and fire at fish. Prioritize high-value targets and watch the screen for Boss Rush alerts and Star Storm event notifications — these are your biggest earn opportunities.

Withdraw Winnings via GCash
Once you've built up a balance you're happy with, head to your ph98 wallet and request a withdrawal. GCash and PayMaya payouts typically process in 5–15 minutes. Your winnings arrive in PHP, no conversion needed.

Pro Tips for Filipino Players

Don't waste shots on the cheapest fish when boss targets are on screen — focus firepower where the multipliers are.
In multiplayer mode, coordinate with other players on boss targets. The killing shot wins the prize, so timing matters.
During the Star Storm event, switch to the Star Cannon and target the Crystal Whale immediately — it only stays on screen for a short window.
Set a shot budget per session. It's easy to keep shooting — decide your stop point before you start.
The Freeze Cannon is underrated. Using it on Dragon Fish before switching to Torpedo can significantly improve your catch rate.

Best Times to Play

Fish school density is highest during evening hours (6PM–11PM Philippine Standard Time), when the ph98 platform sees peak traffic. Boss Rush events are more frequent during this window, giving evening players more chances at the 200×–500× Star Boss prize.

Special Events & Bonus Rounds

Star Fishing at ph98 features recurring special events that dramatically increase earning potential. Here's what to look out for:

Boss Rush Round

Triggered randomly during normal play or at set intervals. The entire screen clears of standard fish and a massive Boss creature appears. All active players compete to land the killing shot, which pays out 200×–500× the shooter's active bet. This is the most lucrative single event in Star Fishing.

Star Storm Event

A timed bonus event where the Crystal Whale, Golden Octopus, and other rare high-value sea creatures flood the screen for 30–60 seconds. The Star Cannon is automatically unlocked during this window. Landing catches during Star Storm can generate enormous returns in a short time.

Electric Eel Chain

Catching an Electric Eel triggers a chain effect that electrocutes surrounding fish, potentially catching 3–8 additional fish automatically with no extra shots required. The chain payout is based on your current bet multiplied by each fish's value — a single Eel catch can cascade into a very profitable sequence.

Daily Treasure Chest

Once per day, a glowing Treasure Chest appears on screen. Shooting it rewards a fixed PHP cash prize regardless of the chest's health — unlike standard fish, one shot is all you need. Prize amounts scale with your active bet level at the time the chest is hit.

Why Play Star Fishing at ph98 Specifically?
