Big Bass Bonanza 3 Reeler

The 3×3 grid is definitely something new and we’re here for it! Symbols pay from left to right on adjacent reels over 5 paylines with the following max awards:   

• Bobber – Pays 100x for 5 on a payline   
• Fishing Rod – Pays 30x for 5 on a payline   
• Dragonfly – Pays 10x for 5 on a payline   
• Lure Box– Pays 5x for 5 on a payline   
• Fish – Pays 2x for 5 on a payline   
• A Symbol – Pays 1x for 5 on a payline   
• K Symbol – Pays 0.5x for 5 on a payline   
• Q Symbol – Pays 0.5x for 5 on a payline   
• J Symbol – Pays 0.5x for 5 on a payline   
• 10 Symbol – Pays 0.5x for 5 on a payline     

Scatter Symbol – The iconic Big Bass itself lands on all reels and triggers the Free Spins when three hit at the same time.   

Wild Symbol – As per usual, the Fisherman is the Wild, hits on all reels during the Free Spins and can replace all other symbols except for the Scatter.    

Money Symbol – These are the fish – or Money Fish as we like to call them. This symbol takes a random value from 2x to 5000x the total bet on every spin. They are collected in the Free Spins round by the Wild.  

Free Spins – This feature is triggered when 3 Scatters land on the reels. The base about of Free Spins that you are awarded is 10, but if the Scatters land on the top and middle rows, you’ll get an extra +1 or +2 per Scatter. There’s a bit more to the winning process too – there is a random chance that hooks can appear and pull up Scatters onto the reels to trigger the round!  

As you spin, the Wild symbols activate the Money symbols, depicted as cash-filled fish. These really pile up the winnings, but that’s not all! For every successful haul the fisherman gets, the special meter fills up at the top of the reels. This special meter grants bonuses, each one better than the last as it progressively fills during the Free Spins round. Basically, this means that every 4th Wild collected adds 10 Free Spins and increases the multiplier applied to the Money symbols collection to 2x. Then, 4 more will get you another 10 Free Spins and a x3 multiplier. The ultimate boost is another 10 Free Spins and a whopping x10 multiplier – imagine the payouts!     

Then, just to make sure the winnings keep rolling in, there is a random chance for different events to take place. When there is a Wild Symbol, but no Money Symbols in play, the Fisherman can either use a bazooka to make fish appear or chuck some dynamite into the water to reveal some juicy fish! The inverse is also possible, where randomly, when there are Money Symbols, but not Wild, a hook can appear and pull up Wilds into position.    

Buy Free Spins – If you’d like to jump right into reeling in juicy Money Fish, you can buy the bonus round for 100x total current bet. If you are feeling like some seriously big wins, you can buy the Super Free Spins for 300x the bet where you only need 3 Wilds to progress to the next level, and the final multiplier is 20x!    

Ante Bet – Enabling the Ante Bet activates a 15x bet multiplier, which causes the gameplay to produce more Scatters. The base game multiplier sits at 10x.

You can get started betting at € 0.10, and you can wager up to € 375, which is pretty high for sure. We see a max win set at 5,000x, so you can really go wild on winning streaks! The volatility is a little lower than most games, so you can expect consistent wins. The RTP is 96.50%, across all game modes, so there’s definitely some great consistency there.  

So, if you haven’t skipped ahead and tried the demo already, you have no idea what this awesome slot looks like! Well, let’s change that, shall we? The action takes place underwater, in the deep blue sea. On either side of the transparent grid divided by bubbles, there are great big rock faces. There’s not much else going on, as it’s clear that they opted for a clean look, and it looks great. Apart from the occasional school of fish and some bubbles, all the movement takes place on the grid itself. We see the return of all the iconic symbols such as bobbers, lure boxes, and dragonflies.   

Another underwater adventure awaits, this time on an all-new grid! We were happy to see that fewer reels didn’t mean fewer winnings; in fact, we felt like we were on an absolute winning streak when we tried out the demo! With all the classic gameplay and visuals, this slot is an absolute gem and an awesome addition to the Big Bass series!
