Pragmatic Play · 2022
Five reels, three rows and ten paylines: Big Bass Splash is a high volatility fishing slot. This page covers its figures, modes and rules.
A 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines carries the fishing and ocean theme. Wins pay from left to right, starting on the leftmost reel, and only two matching symbols are needed for a payout. Among the symbols are the card values A to 10, a red off-road 4x4 truck, a fishing reel and rod, a dragonfly and a red tackle box.
Every 4th Wild collected in Free Spins adds 10 spins and lifts the Multiplier to x2, x3, then x10 at level 4. Money Collect gathers fish values of 2x to 5000x the total bet. Two Scatter symbols in the base game bring a near-miss teaser: a random respin down or a hook pulling a reel up.

Unsure what changes once the bonus runs? The rules below show each change in plain terms.
The Free Spins mode puts WILD fishermen on all reels. They collect random MONEY values, 2x-5000x the total bet, shown on fish symbols. Every 4th WILD collected adds 10 Free Spins and raises the multiplier: level 2 is x2, level 3 is x3 and level 4 is x10.
Base game roundCollected fish money
Base Game uses 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 fixed paylines. Wins pay left to right from the leftmost reel. When exactly 2 SCATTER land, a respin-down drops the scatter reels one position while the other reels respin, or a hook pulls a reel up to show another SCATTER.

Start playing96.71 is the RTP of this version, a long-run average. How often the bonus round comes is not known in advance, and one session can bring no Free Spins at all or several in a row. The result of one session is random, whatever the RTP.
Five other versions of this series carry their own RTP values. Which RTP version this lobby runs is shown only in the game rules, not in the game itself. Read the game rules before you play, then compare them with the RTP listed on this page.
x5,000 is the maximum win of Big Bass Splash, counted as a multiple of the bet. It is a ceiling reached very rarely, so it is not a figure to expect in a session. The money amount grows with the bet, but the multiple stays the same at every bet size.
Players must be 18+. Get help from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or self-exclude through BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.

When Big Bass Splash stops being fun, take a break or self-exclude through BetStop, rather than chasing losses with bigger bets.
Big Bass Splash basics
The RTP, volatility, paylines and bets of this slot, settled before your first spin.
96.71% is the RTP of Big Bass Splash, measured per A$100 staked. Over very long play, returns trend toward this figure. Any single session can finish well above or below it.
2x to 5000x the total bet is the range of money values on fish symbols. Wild Fishermen collect those values during free spins. Each fourth Wild collected adds 10 Free Spins and moves the collection multiplier up a level: x2, then x3, then x10 at level 4.
x5,000 the bet is the maximum win, which is A$10,000 at the A$2 example top bet. High volatility means wins come less often and can be larger. Nobody can know in advance when a large win will land.
10 fixed paylines cross the 5x3 grid. Wins pay left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. A win needs at least 2 matching symbols to pay.
A$0.10 is the minimum bet and A$250 the highest bet allowed. At that top bet, the maximum win at that bet is A$1,250,000. The A$1 and A$2 examples on this page are only sample stakes, not the limits.
