Bigger Bass Bonanza Slot Review

Bigger Bass Bonanza slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Bigger Bass Bonanza slot is played on 5 reels and 4 rows with 12 fixed paylines. You may notice that this is one of the main differences to the original with the extra row. A winning combination lands when 3 or more identical symbols appear from left to right. This begins from reel 1.

Bets start from 12p up to £240 per spin, so the game can be enjoyed by those who prefer low or high stakes. You can also choose up to 1000 autospins if you don’t want to manually hit the spin button every time. Quick spin and turbo spin options are available if you want to speed it up even more.

The Bigger Bass Bonanza RTP is 96.71%, which is well above average for this type of slot. It’s also on the high side in terms of volatility. The maximum win per spin is 4,000 x your stake. The best chance of this is from the free spins feature, where there is a 4000 x fish up for grabs.

It’s worth noting that if you’ve reached 2000 x, for example, and then land the 4000 x fish in the free spins feature, 4000 x is still the maximum the game will payout.

Theme – catch of the day

The fishing theme carries on in this sequel, but with the original seemingly focused on deep-sea fishing, this one is closer to the shore as the graphics show the coastline and bright buildings in the background. It’s really easy on the eye and the cartoony element makes it fun to play.

The colourful blue reels are separated by bubbles and feature A to 10 royals as well as higher valued symbols such as a fishing rod and a boat. The boat is the most valuable symbol in the game with 5 on the reels returning 200 x your bet.

The wild in the game only appears during the free spins feature, and it substitutes for all symbols except scatter. The scatter symbol is a fish that can appear on all reels during the base game and the bonus round.

Bigger Bass Bonanza Bonus Features

The only thing that really lets this otherwise great slot down is the number of bonus features. There is one bonus feature, which is all about free spins and accumulating wins to potentially give you more free spins as the bonus round continues.

If you’ve played the original by Pragmatic Play, then this will be familiar. It’s essentially the same but with the added benefit of higher value money symbols and an extra row. Let’s explain the feature in more detail…

Free Spins feature

When 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols appear on any of the reels, players are awarded 10, 15, or 20 free spins respectively.

During the Bigger Bass Bonanza free spins feature, larger wins will be accumulated when wild symbols land at the same time as the money symbols. The angler from the wild collects the values of the fishes in view, which are all assigned a random monetary value up to 4000 x your bet.

Additionally, you’ll see a free spins display above the reels. This is where you have the chance to land even more free spins. Every 4^th wild that lands will give you 10 extra free spins along with a multiplier of 2, 3, or 10x depending on how many wilds have landed in total.

So, for example, if the angler collects £2,000 worth of fish and the free spins multiplier is currently at 3 x as 8 wilds have already appeared, your total win will actually be £6,000. You can get an extra 10 free spins up to three times. It cannot be retriggered any further.

Bigger Bass Bonanza Review Summary – A fun and simple slot

I enjoyed playing this slot despite the simplicity of it all. The graphics are sharp and there’s a fun element to the gameplay. If you’re into your fishing then it is certainly a slot you should consider.

The super high volatility means that you may be waiting longer for a win than a less volatile slot. But the rewards are potentially greater, especially during the bonus feature. Although the max win of 4000 x is rare, there is plenty of high-value fish on offer when you land 10 or more free spins.

If you want to cast your net wider and try some other fishing themed slots, consider the likes of Lucky Larry’s Lobstermania 2 by IGT and Blueprint Gaming’s Fishin’ Frenzy. Both are enjoyable alternatives.
