Format and Betting Options<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Big Bass Bonanza is built around a 5-reel, 3-row format. Big Bass Bonanza can be played from as little as 0.10 credits per spin, and the maximum bet is a whopping 250 credits<\/strong> \u2013 so there\u2019s betting opportunities for players on all<\/em> kinds of budget here! There are also 10 fixed paylines<\/strong> \u2013 fixed, meaning you\u2019re unable to adjust the number of paylines in play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Game Controls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Big Bass Bonanza RTP and Volatility<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Big Bass Bonanza has an above-average RTP of 96.71% <\/strong>– and this is also better than the vast majority of video slots we see from<\/em> Pragmatic Play. However, we warned that the software provider does offer its games in different RTP settings, so you may find Big Bass Bonanza offered at certain online casinos at a lower RTP than the one advertised here.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Medium Volatility Gameplay<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    As far as to the volatility of the game, we\u2019d say that Big Bass Bonanza is medium varianc<\/strong>e. Of course, in the short term, you may find that the slot plays more like a high variance slot \u2013 and, on the other end of the scale, it may play like a low variance machine!<\/p>\n\n\n

    Big Bass Bonanza Bonus Features<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    In line with keeping things simple, Reel Kingdom has opted to include just one bonus round in Big Bass Bonanza<\/strong> \u2013 and those of you familiar with Fishin\u2019 Frenzy and other collection-based slot bonuses may well recognise many of the bonus round\u2019s pillars! Let\u2019s take a look at how the bonus round works, below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Free Spins<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    In order to trigger the Free Spins bonus round in Big Bass Bonanza you\u2019ll need to land 3, 4, or 5 of the scatter symbols <\/strong>anywhere in view. Doing so will award the Free Spins feature, and you will then be awarded the following number of spins:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    • 3 Scatter Symbols:<\/strong> 10 Free Spins<\/li>
    • 4 Scatter Symbols:<\/strong> 15 Free Spins<\/li>
    • 5 Scatter Symbols:<\/strong> 20 Free Spins<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Now, remember those fish symbols that have cash values attached to them? Well, they come into play during the bonus round \u2013 and if, on any spin, the Fisherman symbol lands, he\u2019ll cast out his reel and collect any of the cash values that appear on your screen.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      This means, the more fish symbols that land \u2013 when he does \u2013 the better. He also acts as a wild symbol, and will substitute for all other symbols, helping you to form wins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Now, things get even more interesting when you manage to land two or more of the Fisherman symbols on a single spin. When this happens, each Fisherman collects all of the fish independentl<\/strong>y \u2013 so, if, for example, you landed two Fisherman, and there was one \u00a325 fish on the screen, you\u2019d win \u00a350 for that spin!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Every time the wild symbol lands in view, the wild is collected on a metre above the reels. Every four wilds you collect awards a re-trigger \u2013 award 10 additional free spins <\/strong>\u2013 and a multiplier is also<\/em> applied, which is then multiplied against any of the fish symbols that land in view!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The Big Bass Bonanza Family<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Big Bass Bonanza was released in 2020, and seeing what a huge hit it became so quickly, Pragmatic Play decided to launch sequels very shortly after the launch of the original. These are some of the other games in the Big Bass Bonanza series that you can try:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Bigger Bass Bonanza<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Everything about this slot definitely is bigger than the original, with a top prize of 4000x, a higher RTP and a few more paylines. Aside from that, Bigger Bass Bonanza is really not all that different from the first game in the series. While all of this sounds great, the trade-off is that it is a highly volatile game.<\/strong> So, if you’re a budget-concious player, then you may want to sticky with the original Big Bass Bonanza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Big Bass Bonanza Megaways<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

      Big Bass Bonanza Megaways brings players an enhanced gaming experience with a variable number of ways to win that goes all the way up to 46,696<\/strong>. Like Bigger Bass Bonanza, it also has a top prize of 4000x and is highly volatile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The bonus round in Big Bass Bonanza Megaways is just like the feature that you’ll encounter in its two predecessors. It’s a free spins bonus where the fisherman can reel in fish for instant wins, with multipliers that can be earned by collecting wilds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Which Game is Best?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      If we had to pick a favourite from the Big Bass Bonanza series, we’d have to go with the original. There really isn’t that much differentiating the sequels from the original<\/strong>, as the top prizes aren’t much higher and there aren’t any extra features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      We think the medium variance is a good trade-off for the smaller top prize<\/strong>. 2000x is a bit on the low end, even for a slot with this volatility level, but it’s a decent compromise for being able to land wins more frequently than in the more highly volatile games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
