Big Bass Bonanza Slot

The iconic Big Bass Bonanza slot game by Pragmatic Play has developed a sterling reputation amongst slot gamers over the years, and for good reason! This fishing-based title, released in 2020, has quickly become a fan favourite amongst gamers at BoyleSports Games thanks to the simple grid layout and entertaining bonuses.

Big Bass Bonanza Game Background

Gameplay of Big Bass Bonanza takes place on a 5-reel, 3-row playgrid with 10 fixed paylines spanning across its segments, which is fairly standard for online slots. Each of the symbols in play is presented between streams of bubbles and very few feature backgrounds, so the deep sea setting is visible throughout play.

The background in Big Bass Bonanza displays an interesting ocean scene with coral formations and seaweed visible close to the playgrid where the water is clear enough to see through. Above the playgrid, the gentle waves lap across the screen behind the bright game title designed to stand out against the mostly blue background. The soundtrack of the game only reasserts the theme at hand, with a collection of sound effects accompanying play when spinning the reels.

Big Bass Bonanza Slot Symbols

The play symbols here are in keeping with the fishing theme of play, similar to other titles such as Fishin Frenzy The Big Catch. All of these feature colourful designs, something that also applies to the playing card symbols that have vibrant textures painted across them.

Higher Value Symbols

• Rod

• Float

Players can also make use of the hooked fish scatter symbol and the fisherman wild in the Big Bass Bonanza should they land, with these being the two main bonus symbols included in this title. The medium valued fish symbols could also be considered one of these as these could land with random values fixed to them during base and bonus gameplay. These have also been carried over to subsequent instalments in the series such as the Bigger Bass Bonanza slot.

Big Bass Bonanza Bonus Features

The fisherman symbol in Big Bass Bonanza plays as the wild during base game spins; it can step in for any of the base game symbols mentioned above thanks to its substituting capabilities. During the free spins bonus, this fisherman has a second ability acting as the collector, but we’ll explain that in the free spins description.

The main bonus feature in Big Bass Bonanza is a free spins game triggered by landing 3, 4 or 5 of the hooked fish scatter symbols in a single spin. Should 2 of these land on the grid, the remaining reels will come to a halt more slowly, building the tension in play. If triggered, this could result in 10, 15 or 20 free spins to play through with the same stake as the triggering spin used throughout. 

During the free spins round in this Big Bass Bonanza slot, medium-value fish symbols can land with values attached to them that could vary from 2x to 2,000x. If landed in the same spin as a fisherman wild/collector, these attached values could potentially be collected! If there are more than one wild in a spin, this could occur more than once too. 

There is also a wild collection metre across the top of the grid that could trigger a further 10 free spins as well as a 2x, 3x or 10x multiplier should 4, 8 or 12 wilds be collected in play. This feature was so popular that it was included in follow up titles like the Big Bass Splash slot and Big Bass Amazon Xtreme, the latter of which actually situates its play within a jungle as opposed to the ocean.

Big Bass Bonanza Mobile Play

As is the case with many online casino games, Big Bass Bonanza is optimised for play with a range of different devices connected to the internet. This is thanks to the HTML5 mechanics that Pragmatic Pay has included that allow all of the same features to be enjoyed with anything from a desktop PC to a tablet or smartphone device! The overall quality of the game can be consistent as a result of this, with no compromises being necessary.
