Big Bass Bonanza — basic Information

Scatter, Wild, and other symbols in Big Bass Bonanza

The main strategy in the slot is to win ‘fishy’ prizes using the ‘wild’ fisherman symbols and increasing the multiplier for winnings up to x2100 of your existing bet. But let’s look deeper into ‘special’ symbols in the game.

Scatter

This is how the scatter looks in the Big Bass Bonanza game:

This special symbol appears on all reels. What scatters gives you? A roll of 3, 4, or 5 scatters anywhere on the screen will result in:

• 3 scatters = 10 free spins
• 4 scatters = 15 free spins
• 5 scatters = 20 free spins

Only after getting a roll of 3-5 scatters you will be able to get the Wild symbol and take a chance to win x2100 of your bet. Here you can see a roll of 4 scatters:

According to my own observation of the demo Big Bass Bonanza play — the chance of getting 3 or more scatters is once per 100-200 spins. Please, be sure that you don’t take it as any advice or ‘statistic’ information. This is just a personal observation based on ~500 spins.

Wild symbol

You can call yourself lucky if you see this symbol in the game:

The Wild symbol appears on all reels, but only during the free spin round. This means, that you need to play until a roll of 3 or more scatters will appear, and only then you will take a chance to get a wild symbol. The Wild symbol in Big Bass Bonanza substitutes all symbols except Scatter.

Wild symbols are cumulative during the free spin round. When you accumulate 4 Wild symbols you get an additional 10 free spins plus x2 to your winnings during the session. Here is an example of accumulating 4 Wild symbols:

Other symbols you should know

The first figure means the number of symbols and the second — is your win. For example, if you will bet £1 and get 3 treasure chests, you will win £2.

Big Bass Bonanza volatility and max win

As a rule, the higher the max win, the lower the volatility of the game. These concepts are inversely proportional. As you can see in the chart below, among the top 5 most popular slots in the UK, Big Bass Bonanza has an average max win, and hence average volatility. Although, the provider itself and most reviews claim that the game has high volatility:

Big Bass Bonanza review summary

At first glance, the game may seem rather trivial. Nevertheless, the product cannot reach the top 4 in popularity in the UK without something that appeals to users.

In my opinion, there are three key reasons for the game’s popularity:

1. The exciting bonus game, where the winnings “bite” like fish on a hook
2. Simplicity and ease of play
3. Familiar to many gamblers theme of fishing.

After all, there is something similar between catching a big score in fishing and slots?
