Big Bass Splash

Pull on your waders and head for the water with the Big Bass Splash slot from Pragmatic Play. Fishing games are nothing new for this studio, so they won’t be out of their depth with this themed slot. If you venture into the waters, you’ll find potential prizes of up to x5000 waiting to be netted. 

Big Bass Splash belongs to a series of Big Bass slots which have proven to be very popular with players. Big Bass Bonanza was the original, with a whole host of other similarly themed slots that followed, such as Big Bass Bonanza Megaways, Bigger Bass Bonanza and a Christmas-themed Big Bass Bonanza. There are now five slots in the series; who knows, there might be even more to follow…

Like the other slots in this series, Big Bass Splash isn’t complicated, offering a 5x3 grid with 10 traditional paylines. The min bet is very accessible at 0.10 and increases to 50.00 max bet per spin. A high volatility means you may have your rod in the waters for a while before landing wins, but you’ve got a better chance of catching a whopper. 

Fishing-themed slots are fairly standard, and regular players will know what to expect. You’ll be playing deep below the surface, with shoals of marine life ready for you to get your hooks into. There are also some monster trucks, because why not?!

There’s no sign of anything strange with the low pays, as it’s the usual line-up of playing card royals. The premium symbols add a bit more interest, with a tackle box, a pile of fish, a dragonfly, a fishing rod, and those monster trucks again!

The fisherman appears in every slot in the series, and once again, he’s the wild here. He can land on any of the reels but won’t show his face during the base game; you’ll need to trigger the free spins round to see him pop up. 

The scatter is the fish and hook, and landing three or more will unlock the free spins bonus. If you come close and land two scatters, there’s a chance of getting that all-important third with a reel respin. Some players might also benefit from a feature where a hook is lowered to pull a third scatter onto the board. 

Before the free spins bonus round opens, you’ll receive 0-5 modifiers. These could include modifiers such as more fisherman and money symbols, special new bonus symbols, a higher starting point, or more free spins. 

Unlike many games, the free spins bonus offers plenty of variations on the base round. When the fisherman lands, he'll collect the fish symbols, awarding the value to players. But there's much more on offer here, such as fishing hooks that alter the board, bazookas, a collection meter, and multipliers.

Big Bass Splash isn’t a sequel that’s designed to wring more profit out of the original title; it adds genuine new features and a fun twist on a much-loved slot. You don’t need fishing skills to enter these waters, and you might end up with a catch to be proud of!
