How a round works

Big Bass Bonanza Megaways from Pragmatic Play and Reel Kingdom takes the Big Bass fishing theme and puts it on a Megaways engine, the system licensed from Big Time Gaming. There are six reels, and each one shows between two and seven symbols on a spin. The number of ways to win is the product of the symbols on each reel, up to 46,656.

Wins pay on adjacent reels from the left. After every win, the winning symbols are removed and new symbols tumble in, which the line-based Big Bass games don’t do.

Features

  • Megaways: up to 46,656 ways, changing every spin.
  • Tumbling wins: winning symbols clear and refill.
  • Money fish: fish carry cash values.
  • Free spins: scatters start the round; the fisherman wild collects every fish value on screen.
  • Level-ups: collecting fishermen retriggers spins and raises the collection multiplier.
  • Cash collector and additive symbols: extra ways for fish values to be gathered and boosted.

The top win is 4000x the stake.

RTP and volatility

The RTP in our data is 95.66%. Pragmatic Play supplies lower versions too, so check the paytable.

High volatility in a Megaways game feels different from a ten-line slot. Small wins come often because there are so many ways; the big results still depend on free spins with fishermen and high-value fish together. The tumbles can stretch a free spin into several collections.

Honest tips

  • More ways isn’t more value. Megaways spreads wins differently; the RTP is what matters.
  • Spins with seven symbols on many reels feel lucky, but they’re just random.
  • Budget for the bonus. Free spins drive the game, as in every Big Bass title.
  • Try the demo to see whether you prefer the Megaways pace to the classic layout.
