Big Bass Bonanza Megaways Slots
Dive into a multi layered adventure with Big Bass Bonanza Megaways, an online video slot game which is both upbeat and fun to play and which was released in November 2021 by innovative developers Pragmatic Play.
This is the third installment in this player popular fishing expedition series and is capable of producing wins of up to 4,000x bet. Punters can look forward to higher multipliers in the Free Spins bonus game and some other impactful random features with dynamite and bazookas.
The most striking theme is the new megaways mechanic which means bigger reels and a motivating 46,656 ways to win. A gaming grid is offered to players with 6 reels and 4 rows with an additional reel sitting across the top.
The deep blue of an ocean can be seen behind the transparent reels with an impressive and illuminating sunset rising above. Vibrant colours over the detailed graphics create a captivating and immersive experience and the music brings in an enjoyable ambiance for players. Gamers can also enjoy some great animations from the bazooka and dynamite which light up the bonus rounds.
Punters make wins by matching at least three symbols on adjacent reels which start from the left. Reels 1 and 6 can have up to six symbols on each, whilst reels 2 through to 5 can have up to 5 symbols each plus one symbol on the additional top reel.
All wins trigger the Tumble feature which works well with the megaways by making it easier to land several winning combinations in a row. The winning symbols will disappear from the reels whenever a win is gained and new symbols will drop in from above to completely fill the reels and this continues until players stop getting wins.
To start gameplay bets will need to be staked and these start in an ample range to suit every kind of player starting a minimum of $0.20 per spin and up to $100.00 for the maximum bet per spin. An optional autoplay button allows punters to activate a number of pre automated spins to game with which is useful for those who seek to maintain a particular gaming budget or simply for those who dislike manual play.
The all important RTP is decent at 96.70% and this slot plays at high volatility. This can be biting for novices as it means slow periods between wins but when they land they can be significant so prudence and a lot of care will be needed to keep afloat. However, those high rollers with heftier pockets will enjoy the thrill of riskier gameplay which balances out with the generous wins.
The wild symbol is illustrated by a fishing net and has the power to substitute for all the other symbols with the exception of the scatter and fisherman symbol. The scatter is the jumping bass fish and players will be meeting the fisherman and protagonist of this slot game in the free spins round.
The other symbols are fishing floats, fishing rods, dragonflies, tackle boxes and money symbols offering premium payouts between 2x and 50x stake. The lower paying symbols are the royal playing cards Ace through to 10.
The fish money symbols take a random value at the start of each spin and while they pay according to their respective bet multipliers in the base game the total values are collected during the free spins.
When the scatter lands in formations of three, four, five and six it awards 10, 15, 20 or 25 free spins and during this round the fish money symbols drop to the bottom of the reels in which the fisherman wild symbol appears to collects all these values in view. Players receive ten extra free spins when they collect four on the meter and also increasing multipliers of 2x, 3x and 10x for the first, second and third re-triggers.
The fisherman also uses dynamite to add more fish money symbols to the reels in random positions or a bazooka to explode all the other symbols from the grid except the fisherman symbol which creates a tumble effect meaning more payouts for players.
