Big Bass Bonanza – Reel Action Bonus Features

There are 10 win lines in this slot. Only left-to-right combinations consisting of a minimum of 2-3 identical pictures placed on adjacent reels are counted.

Scatter

This special symbol hits all the reels. A minimum of 3 Scatters that landed at once, paving the way to Free Spins. Yet, the more Scatters, the more Free Spins one will get:

Free Spins (FS)

Money Symbols

During the FS round, all Fish symbols turn into Money symbols, carrying random cash prizes (x2 - x2,000) collectible by Wilds exclusively within the bonus game. 

Wild

The Fisherman symbol lands on the playfield only during Free Spins, appearing on all reels. If several Wilds are on the play grid, each collects Money Symbols' cash prizes, bringing separate rewards.

Wild-collecting trail

During the bonus FS game, additional Free Spins are eligible. Every 4th Fisherman symbol gathered by the special meter above the playfield awards 10 extra FS. There are only 3 times Free Spin retriggering is permitted. So, the biggest number of extra FS is 30.

Moreover, advancing along the meter trail on each milestone stage enhances the winning potential of the bonus FS game, thanks to awarding a higher win multiplier, maximally reaching up to x10 (x2, x3, x10). Also, be aware that when the Wild is on the grid, but there are no Fish symbols, Money symbols may emerge in random places of the playfield.

Buy Free Spins

This gambling title provides an opportunity to purchase FS round triggering for x100. The number of Scatters will be random—3, 4, or 5.

Ante Bet

Also, one can elevate the odds of Free Spins activation by enabling the ’Ante bet' option, which will cost a player 50% over the current bet.

Our Experience Playing Big Bass Bonanza – Reel Action

To familiarize ourselves with this slot more closely, we played it for real money during the 300-spin gaming session. The chosen stake level was €1, as we initially deposited only €200, hoping wins would be enough to complete all the planned spins.

Fortunately, we were lucky enough to activate Free Spins during the 1st hundred spins. Yet, our catch wasn't that impressive, however, totaling only €32. The size of 14 base game prizes varied from €0.5 to €2.5. After the 100th spin, the game balance was €144.5.

The 2nd hundred spins presented us with a couple of bonus FS games that brought together precisely €438.5. Also, there were 16 regular wins in the main game. These ranged from €0.5 to €5. When the 200th spin ended, we had €505.5.

Luckily, the 3rd hundred spins didn't let us go without a final bonus FS game that earned another €30.5. Also, we got the biggest quantity of ordinary wins throughout the playing session—27. When, finally, the game was over, we had as much as €507.5. Therefore, our net profit amounted to €307.5.

Here are all the statistics in one table:

Predictably, in the ‘Big Bass’ sequel, the biggest accent is made on the bonus FS mode, supplying instant prizes up to x2,000, win multipliers up to x10, and up to 30 extra FS. On the contrary, the main game, lacking any profitable feature, cannot boast huge wins, bringing rare and relatively small prizes, the biggest of which was only 20 in our case. Fortunately, a lucrative bonus FS game is triggered with enviable regularity.

Big Bass Bonanza – Reel Action Verdict

So, it's a high-quality game boasting all the main features inherited from the ‘Big Bass’ predecessors, meaning instant prizes, win multipliers, and extra FS during the bonus FS game. What is also important is that the bonus FS game triggers frequently enough. As for drawbacks, the game's RTP figure ranges from 96.5% to 94.5%, the maximum win is mediocre, and the base game cash prizes are too small and rare.
