Bigger Payouts with Bigger Bass Bonanza Slot

Get on the fishing ship with OJO and get your strongest reel. The bigger the fish, the better!

Pragmatic Play is back yet again with another Bass Bonanza game. If you’ve been active in the iGaming industry for quite some time now, you must’ve heard about the Big Bass Bonanza or the Christmas Big Bass Bonanza Megaways slots.

This time, OJO is obsessed with the Bigger Bass Bonanza slot. As long as he’s here to explain all the features, symbols, and bonus features to you, why not take the time to hear him out.

Bigger Bass Bonanza Slot

You can think of the Bigger Bass Bonanza slot as the big brother of the original game. A lot of the features and elements have been carried over into this game. This title has an extra reel to give you more winning combinations!

So, the Bigger Bass Bonanza slot is a 5-reel 4-row video slot with 12 paylines. The number of paylines might seem a little low to a lot of you. But it’s quite standard for Pragmatic Play slots. The provider doesn’t offer too many paylines unless it’s a Megaways title.

When playing this game in Canada with OJO, you can place bets between C$0.12 and C$240. If the minimum bet of C$0.12 seems a little out of place, think about the 12 paylines and C$0.01 for each of them. Now it makes sense, right? You can win up to C$250,000 from this underwater online slot.

The Bigger Bass Bonanza has some fundamental differences from the other titles. The extra row is a good place to start. You get a few additional symbols with good payouts. Even the existing symbols from the previous games have been beautified a little.

Adjusting the Autoplay feature, however, remains the same as the other Pragmatic Play titles. You can change your coins per line value, coin value, and total bet value using the “+” and “-” buttons.

Theme & Sound Design

As OJO already told you, it’s an underwater online slot. So was the original Big Bass Bonanza. Even the underwater scenario has an element of beauty to it. There are palm coconut trees under the water for crying out loud!

Above the waterline, you can see a distant city and its vibrant nightlife. It feels like you’ve come all this way from the city to spin the reels of Bigger Bass Bonanza slot under the water. Very few environments are as peaceful as this, right?

In classic “Big Bass” style, all of the reels on the game have bubbles rising up. If you look closely at the surface of the water, you’ll notice movement. The natural movement of a water body.

Of course, these features don’t do anything for you in terms of gameplay or payouts. But OJO thinks it’s the subtle things that make the biggest difference. Maybe it’s one of the reasons behind the immense success of the Bigger Bass Bonanza slot.

The audio is not too different from other Pragmatic Play games, especially the ones from this series.

Symbols

To trigger the paytable of the game, you have to click on the “i” available on the game interface. Some of the symbols are from the previous game and some are new creations. The ships, the octopus, the BIGGER BASS, and the well-groomed fisherman wild are notable differences.

The ship is the highest paying symbol in the game. The payouts are directly shown in coins. So, your final winning will depend on your selected coin value. 5 ships on all 5 reels can win you an amazing C$240. The fishing reel is the second highest paying symbol and it pays exactly half of the ship.

The octopus and the suitcase pay the same. They can give you C$60 if you land 5 of each on a payline.

There are 5 royals in the Bigger Bass Bonanza slot. A, K, Q, J, and 10. All of them have the same payout ratio. You win C$12 if you land 5 of each on an active payline.

The money symbols are not individually calculated when they land in batches of 5. The winning amount will be the accumulation of all amounts. However, if you land 4 or 3 of them, you get either a C$6 or a C$1.20 payout.

Last but not least, you have the fisherman wild and the bass scatter. The wild can land on any reel during the free spins round.

Bonus Features

Bigger Bass Bonanza slot follows the same bonus mechanics as other Pragmatic Play online slots. You land 3 scatters and the bonus round is triggered. For 3 scatters, the reward is 10 free spins. For 4 scatters, it’s 15 free spins. And finally, if you have 5 scatters anywhere on the reels, you get 20 free spins.

The wild symbol in the game works exactly as you’d expect it to. It can catch all Money symbols as long as they co-exist. Moreover, the wild gets stacked with every free spin. The moment you rack up 4 wilds, the free spins round is retriggered with a 2x multiplier.

Do it again and you get a 3x multiplier. The 3rd time is the charm because you get a massive 10x multiplier if you retrigger the bonus round once again.
