Our Recommended Casinos for Big Bass Bonanza
What Is Big Bass Bonanza?
Big Bass Bonanza is a fishing-themed slot from Pragmatic Play, released in December 2020.
It uses five reels and 10 paylines. Its main event is a free spins round where wilds collect the values of money symbols.
Stakes start at €0.10 and go up to €250, so very small budgets are well catered for.
Triggering the Free Spins
Scatters open the bonus round. Three scatters award 10 free spins, four award 15 and five award 20.
Money Symbols and Wild Collectors
During free spins, money symbols can land with values of up to 2,000x.
When a wild lands, it collects all visible money symbols. Each spin in the round is about the two appearing together.
Retriggers and Rising Multipliers
Wilds are also counted through the round. Every fourth wild retriggers the feature with 10 more free spins and a higher multiplier.
Retrigger | Wilds collected | Extra free spins | Multiplier |
|---|---|---|---|
First | 4 | 10 | 2x |
Second | 8 | 10 | 3x |
Third | 12 | 10 | 10x |
The jump from 3x to 10x on the third retrigger makes a long round far more valuable than a short one.
