Key Game Features
Bigger Bass Bonanza slot appeared in online casinos in the fall of 2021. It continues the series of popular fishing machines, released by Reel Kingdom in cooperation with Pragmatic Play. The action unfolds on a resort coastline. The fisherman is dressed up in a brightly colored shirt, wearing sunglasses, and neon signs of nightclubs are burning on the shore.
The slot machine's RTP is 96.71%, but is subject to change at specific online casinos. As part of the update, volatility has increased to a high level, now rated at 5 points out of 5, compared to 4/5 in the previous version. The bets have changed to match the paylines, starting at $0.12 and increasing on odd levels to $240 per spin
Big wins are possible when scatters are collected in free spins, and wins on regular lines occur when matching symbols fall from left to right on neighboring reels, starting from the leftmost reel.
Card symbols from 10 to A are used as cheap symbols, while the tackle box, bait, fishing rod and boat are high value symbols.
High payouts range from 50x to 200x the bet for five identical symbols, and a full line of fish scatters brings the maximum winnings. Wild appears during the free spins, substituting for the regular paying symbols and collecting all money images in sight.
In the basic mode wins are awarded for combinations of 2-5 identical symbols. Wild appears only in freespins. Provided up to 20 free spins with the possibility of prolongation. Bonus round is triggered by 3-5 scatters and activates additional options:
- Fishing - images of fish carry random values from x2 to x4000. If simultaneously with them on the field appears a picture of a fisherman, the coefficients are summed up and multiplied by the base bet.
- Levels - the wilds fill the accumulation bar at the top of the reels. Every 4th wild symbol extends the free spins and increases the multiplier.
If at the end of the round only one collect-symbol without fish pictures fell on the field, money signs may appear in random positions. This increases the player's chances of a payout.
The features in Bigger Bass Bonanza are the same as in Big Bass Bonanza, with an extra row and higher value cash symbols. Scatter symbols can appear on all reels and 3, 4 or 5 of these symbols will bring you 10, 15 or 20 free spins.
During the free spins, when wild symbols fall at the same time as money symbols, the fisherman symbol collects all their values. The money symbols land with a randomly assigned money denomination. This game features an elusive fish symbol that pays 4,000x your bet amount.
In addition, wild symbols are collected on the counter displayed above the reels. Every 4th wild symbol collected triggers the retrigger feature, awarding +10 extra free spins and a multiplier for the wild money symbol collected. Players get x2 for the first retrigger, x3 for the second, and x10 for the third. The way it works is that if x2 is active, when the fisherman collects any money symbols, it doubles their value. After three retriggers, the feature cannot be re-run.
