Big Bass Bonanza

Fishermen have been telling stories about the one that got away for generations. Big Bass Bonanza™ would rather count the ones that didn't.

Pragmatic Play sends players underwater for a fishing trip where practically everything lives up to the title. The symbols are huge, the fish proudly display their Money values and the fisherman arrives during Free Spins to collect the lot. No glasses required.

Behind all that enthusiasm lies a surprisingly intriguing slot. Big Bass Bonanza™ has 10 paylines and low volatility. This game has a 96.71% RTP, with bets running from just $0.10 to the highest $250. ( find out more about volatility HERE)

This is a successful continuation of a fishing-themed slot series.

Wins form from left to right across adjacent reels, while themaximum possible win is capped at 2,100x the bet. Normal, Quick and Turbo speeds let players decide how quickly the next cast arrives. Of course Autoplay is there if you're staying for longer.

Theme and Symbols

Big Bass Bonanza™ isn't going to make anyone wonder what its theme might be. Fishing rods, bobbers, tackle boxes and dragonflies join colourful card ranks beneath the water, while a cheerful fisherman serves as the Wild during Free Spins. Symbols are huge and clear.
The game runs well with music in the background, which helps to brighten up a long day.

The fisherman is the Wild, substituting for all symbols except the Scatter, although his real work begins once Free Spins start. 

And then there are the fish.

Money fish can carry 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x or 2,000x the total bet during the feature. They're large, bright and rather difficult to overlook. That's useful, because whenever a fisherman Wild appears, he collects the values from every Money symbol currently visible.

For once, the fisherman doesn't need to convince anyone how big the catch was. The numbers are right there on the screen.

Betting Options and Special Features

Three Scatters are enough to get the fishing trip properly underway with 10 Free Spins. Four Scatters increase that to 15, while five award 20 Free Spins. 

Then Big Bass Bonanza™ starts counting fishermen.

Every Wild collected during the feature contributes towards a four-Wild milestone. Reach the fourth Wild and another 10 Free Spins are added, with future Money collections receiving a 2x multiplier. Collect four more and the next batch comes with 3x. Reach the third milestone and another 10 spins arrive alongside a considerably more ambitious 10x multiplier.

The extra spins are played after the current batch finishes, allowing the feature to unfold almost like a fisherman's favourite story.

There was the first catch.Then another.

Conclusion

This online slot knows exactly what kind of game it wants to be. The appearance is enormous, yet the mechanics are basic. Ten paylines keep the base game approachable, oversized symbols make the action easy to read, and the Free Spins feature revolves around one clear relationship: fish carry the Money and the fisherman collects it.

What makes the bonus memorable is how that simple idea grows. Four Wilds can keep the trip alive. Another four improve it again. Keep the fisherman appearing and the collection multiplier can eventually reach 10x.
The Pragmatic Play slot portfolio is continually expanding, offering a wide range of titles for all players.

This game is for players already familiar with the Big Bas Universe. 

Perhaps that's why the title works so well. It gets your attention and tells you what you're chasing.

And should anyone ask how big the fish were? Well...

The fisherman's hands move a little farther apart.
