Big Bass Bonanza Hold & Spinner

There are two stand-out slot series in the fishing genre, and Pragmatic Play’s Big Bass Bonanza is one of them. As we’ve seen with the other hit angling-themed slot series Fishin’ Frenzy, Big Bass Bonanza has been reworked many times, and each instalment, like Big Bass Splash, has always proven to be a hit, so we expect more of the same from Big Bass Bonanza Hold & Spinner.

The way Pragmatic Play approach things where the slot series is concerned is that they’ve made themselves adept at combining the old with the new. So, yes, there are ten paylines across five reels as standard, as seen in the other Big Bass Bonanza releases, but there are new elements, such as Hold & Spinner.

It's a way of keeping what is good about the series and sticking with what works while also providing enough new components to keep fans of the Big Bass Bonanza collection interested. And, having a potential top prize of 10,000x, when you consider the betting range is 0.10 to 250.00, isn't a bad idea either.

As you will expect from a fishing-themed slot, the gameplay takes place underwater with the banksides visible in the backdrop. In many ways, it’s the perfect setting for Big Bass Bonanza Hold & Spinner, as it’s allowed Pragmatic Play to get to work in producing some fantastic artwork. Everything you see is bright and colourful, which is reason alone to spin the reels of this slot.

The symbols that appear on the reels are made up of royals and icons relating to the theme. The royals are well-designed and appear in a bubble font, with 10, J, Q, K and A included. The fishing-related icons are the ones to keep an eye out for as they pay more, and they include everything from dragonflies and tackleboxes to fish symbols with cash values attached.

There are a couple of bonus rounds in Big Bass Bonanza Hold & Spinner, and we will start by telling you about the free spins feature. 3, 4 or 5 scatters will return 10, 15 or 20 free rounds to play through, and more importantly, during the feature, the total sum of cash values attached to fish will be collected when a wild lands.

What’s also worth noting is that a meter collects the wilds, and for every four added, the multipliers in play will increase. They first increase by 2x, then 3x and max out at 10x. Free spins will also be added to the running total every time four wilds are collected in the meter too.

The Hold & Spinner feature is all about the money icons that appear on the reels with multiplier values attached. Three money icons in view will trigger the Hold & Spinner feature, where players will have four respins handed to them. Only blank spaces and money symbols will be present during the respins, so there’s the potential to win big.

Big Bass Bonanza Hold & Spinner is another Big Bass Bonanza release that everyone will want to spin the reels of. Again, there’s that continuity and all the good stuff you expect from the series, and then there’s the Hold & Spinner feature that adds something new to the party. Being able to buy the feature is a bonus too.
