Big Bass Bonanza, a Pragmatic Play partner Reel Kingdom game released near the end of 2020, struck a chord with a group of internet fishermen, became a remarkably successful game, and took the online casino industry by storm. It was surprising that it didn’t add much to what slots like Fishin’ Frenzy already had to offer. It did, however, include a far more intricate bonus game that could award multipliers of up to x10 to help enhance scatter wins. Nevertheless, big Bass Bonanza drew enough participants to warrant a sequel. Bigger Bass Bonanza is the result of this, which sensibly hasn’t modified the core gameplay much but has added a few elements to make it a larger game.

There are a few instantly visible changes. In Bigger Bass Bonanza, an extra row has been added, resulting in a 5-reel, 4-row game panel with 12 fixed pay lines. The background image has been modified as well. Players now appear to be casting off closer to a shoreline filled with palm trees and neon-lit structures rather than deep-sea fishing. Finally, the funkier, electro 80s style soundtrack, which replaces the affable plinking of the original, suggests somewhere hip.

Gameplay
The game aims to land three or more scatter symbols to start the free spin feature round, which is similar to Fishing Frenzy but incorporates a unique re-trigger strategy. When the free spin round is launched, you’ll be awarded ten free spins, with each landing of a fisherman’s wild symbol adding up the fish values. The fishermen are then gathered at the top of the screen. Every fourth wild symbol re-triggers an additional ten spins with an increasing multiplier.
The first re-trigger will increase the multiplier to 2x, the second to 3x, and the third and final re-trigger will offer a 10x multiplier along with ten free spins! If the fisherman lands with no fish, a random dynamite function can trigger, transforming up to three symbols into fish and collecting the values.
This high-volatility slot has an excellent RTP of 96.71 percent and a range of small, medium, and high-paying winnings. Still, most people play it for the prize catch. When playing the Big Bass Bonanza online slot, all you have to do is line up three to five matching symbols to win. You can get many little and medium winnings, and the high-paying float symbols can help you win big.
Symbols
The low-paying playing card symbols 10-A, which can pay up to 10x your bet amount, are the first 13 symbols in the Big Bass Bonanza slot machine. The fish come next, with a maximum payout of 20x your wager, followed by the dragonfly and the tackle box, with a maximum payout of 50x your bet. Finally, the first rod can pay up to 100 times your wager, while the float, the most valued symbol, can produce up to 200 times your gamble.

Summary
Thankfully, Pragmatic Play has included a minor new feature in the form of the wild collecting bonus, which we think will appeal to players, especially those tired of the traditional Fishin’ Frenzy structure yet appreciate the gameplay. Big Bass Bonanza by Pragmatic Play is a sincere attempt to be a top online slot game. Sure, they haven’t gone too far out of the box in terms of creativity, but the game looks good, the graphics are well-done, and the software provider has put up a solid effort.
