Big Bass Bonanza

Big Bass Bonanza is a Pragmatic Play fishing-themed slot released in 2020. Within a short period, this game floated to the top of the charts and paved the way for an incredible number of sequels and variations, many of which you can play at our online casino. 

While fishing was a less popular theme when the slot was released, it has become mainstream and many other software providers have emulated the simple gameplay and intriguing bonus round of Big Bass Bonanza. 

The developer has kept this title intentionally simple, and while images are crisp and visually appealing, there are no 3D animations or similar distractions. What’s more, the game offers a friendly and upbeat-sounding soundtrack that plays throughout the game. This soundtrack is complemented by several aquatic-sounding slot machine sound bites that increase the game’s realism. 

Getting the fish to bite 

Just like fishing, there are just a couple of steps that you need to complete to start playing Big Bass Bonanza. Set your wager by clicking either the ‘-’ or ‘+’ buttons located on either side of the spin button. This will open the betting box where you can set your wager according to the coins per line, the coin value, or the total bet. 

With your wager set, you can either spin a single round of Big Bass Bonanza. 

Once the reels are in motion, you can sit back and see what’ll bite. The game has 10 standard symbols and an equal number of paylines. When matching symbols land on the same payline, you’ll receive an instant payout. For most symbols, you’ll need three or more to win a prize, but for the floating symbol, the minimum number is two. 

Big Bass Bonanza Features 

Apart from its simple gameplay, the success of Big Bass Bonanza is down to its bonus round. Just like in other popular online slots UK, landing three or more scatter symbols triggers this bonus with between 10 and 20 free spins. 

During free spins, a fisherman wild symbol appears and substitutes for any standard symbol to complete or grow a winning combination. Moreover, fish symbols, which in the base game offered standard payouts, are each assigned a random money value with multipliers of up to 2,000x of your base wager. 

Whenever a fisherman symbol lands on the same spin as one or more fish symbols, you’ll win the prizes shown on the fish. If two fisherman symbols land on the same spin, they will each collect and pay out the money values, thus doubling the total payouts. 

This bonus is played on special reels and when a free spin ends with no wins and a wild is present on the grid, fish symbols can appear in random positions.  

Every fourth wild that lands during Big Bass Bonanza free spins retriggers the bonus. Moreover, all fish symbols will have their prize money doubled. If you collect a further four wilds, you’ll activate yet another set of 10 free spins and all fish symbols will have their prize money tripled. 

Any retriggered free spins and multipliers are played after the current set has ended. Moreover, once the Big Bass Bonanza bonus has been retriggered for the third time, it cannot be retriggered any more. The bonus will also end if the 2,100x max win limit has been reached and paid out.
