In Dazed Games’ Steam game How to Fish, roulette lets you bet an item, and landing green pays 35x that item’s value as a sellable payout item.
How to Fish, the physics fishing game from Dazed Games on Steam, is also a shooter with a full gambling side to it, and roulette is the part that endgame achievement hunters care about. It isn’t a cash-only casino table — you stake an item, and a green result multiplies that item’s value by 35x into something you can sell. That single fact is what ties roulette to two of the game’s trickier achievements.
Betting an item and cashing a green win
| Mechanic | Detail |
|---|---|
| What you bet | An item, typically a cooked fish |
| Green payout | 35x the wagered item’s value |
| Payout form | A sellable item, not cash |
| Achievement tie-in | Unlocks All in; sets up Rich! Millionaire |
Key The way to think about roulette here is item value, not chips. You wager an item, spin, and the outcome that matters is green. Land it and the machine hands back a payout item worth 35x what you bet — not a pile of money, but an object you then take to a vendor and sell. Everything else on the wheel is noise for achievement running; green is the only pocket you’re farming for.
Why roulette clears All in and Rich! Millionaire
The All in achievement asks for exactly one thing: bet on green and win. So the moment a green result lands, that box is checked no matter how small the bet was. The reason players bother with a big bet is the second achievement.
Because the payout scales at 35x and arrives as a sellable item, a large enough wager produces an object worth 100,000 or more — and selling something worth 100,000 is the requirement for Rich! Millionaire. You take the item the wheel paid out, sell it to a vendor, and that sale trips the second achievement. One good green spin feeds both, which is why roulette is the go-to route rather than trying to catch and sell a six-figure fish outright.
The island 5 roulette farming loop
This all happens in the post-game on island 5, the volcano, where the highest-value fish live and lava cooking is on hand to push their value up before you bet.

The values and odds worth knowing
| Target | Number |
|---|---|
| Green payout | 35x |
| Minimum bet value for a 100,000 sale | 2,858 |
| Lava cooking multiplier | 1.5x |
| Green odds | 1 pocket in 37 |
The math is simple once you have the multiplier. To reach a 100,000 sale you divide by 35, which means a bet worth at least 2,858. Since lava cooking adds exactly 1.5x, that works out to a raw fish worth roughly 1,906 before the flames. Aim a little higher — around 3,200 cooked value — so an imperfect catch doesn’t leave you stranded at 99,000 and short of the achievement. Green itself is one pocket in 37, and it’s pure RNG, so there’s no timing or trick to force it.
Only put fish above your target value on green so a single green win unlocks All in and hands you a payout item you can sell for Rich! Millionaire in one go.
Mistakes that waste a green-ready fish
The biggest slip is betting a fish below the threshold while you’re still chasing Rich! Millionaire — a cheap bet still gives you All in on green, but the payout won’t be worth the 100,000 you need, so you burn a rare green result on nothing. Watch the grill too: value climbs to 1.5x and then collapses to zero as the fish goes solid black, so leaving it on the lava too long destroys the exact catch you were trying to inflate. And don’t expect green on a schedule — at one pocket in 37 it might land in five spins or ninety.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you unlock All in and Rich! Millionaire from one roulette win?
Yes. All in triggers the instant green lands, and Rich! Millionaire triggers when you sell the payout item, so a single green win on a bet above the threshold covers both — you just have to actually sell what the wheel pays out to close the second one.
Does roulette have a bet cap?
No cap shows up in the game’s roulette, so one high-value fish is enough. You don’t need to build up a big stack of items to wager — a single cooked catch above your target value does the whole job whenever green finally hits.
What should you do with fish that aren’t valuable enough for the green bet?
Sell them normally to fund more island 5 lures and spins. Cook them to 1.5x first, though — that multiplier also applies to the sale price, not just to a fish you’re betting, so even throwaway catches bring in noticeably more when you offload them.
