Pick this slot if you like fishing and ocean themes. Big Bass Splash runs on a 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines. Wins pay from the leftmost reel to the right, and a line pays when 2 matching symbols land in a row. The symbols include a red off-road truck and a dragonfly. Every spin checks all 10 paylines.
Choose it if you want the bonus to revolve around collecting money. In Free Spins, the Fisherman WILD collects the money values on fish symbols, from 2x to 5000x the total bet. Every fourth WILD collected adds 10 Free Spins and lifts the multiplier to x2, x3 and finally x10. Level 4 is the top level, and retriggers stop there.

Big Bass Splash reels
You will have picked a bet, read how wins form and set a limit before spinning.
Choose a bet between A$0.10 and A$250 before you spin. The examples on this page use A$0.20 and A$0.40, and each spin takes the amount you have set.
Land matching symbols on one of the 10 fixed paylines, starting from the leftmost reel. Wins pay left to right, and at least 2 matching symbols must land to pay.
Watch for exactly two Scatters, which starts a teaser. Scatter reels either drop one position while the rest respin, or a hook lifts a reel to reveal another Scatter.
Watch the Fisherman Wilds appear on every reel once the Free Spins round opens. They collect the random MONEY values shown on the fish symbols.
Set your spending limit before the first spin, because no one can know how long a session will run. Stop when the limit is reached, whatever the reels show.
Bonus guide
Read before your first spin, or when a bonus round starts and you need the rules.
Watch the fish from the start. WILD (Fisherman) appears on all reels and collects the random MONEY values (2x-5000x total bet) shown on fish symbols. Every 4th WILD collected retriggers +10 Free Spins and raises the multiplier: x2 at level 2, x3 at level 3, x10 at level 4.
Base gameFish money multipliers
Spin the 5 reels x 3 rows with 10 fixed paylines. Wins pay left to right from the leftmost reel. When exactly 2 SCATTER land, a near-miss teaser can follow: a random respin-down, or a hook that pulls a reel up to reveal another SCATTER.
Placing a betWins and teasers
Decide before the first spin: the purchase costs 100 times the bet, which is A$40 at A$0.40.

Read the return to player as money over time, not as a result of one session. For every A$100 staked, the table shows the average payback. The version run here appears in the game rules.

Before you press spin
The worry that you cannot picture the symbols or the win screen before the first spin.
Decide how much you can afford to lose before you spin, because the free spins round can come early or late in any session. How often it arrives is not known in advance. The result of one session is random whatever the RTP is, so a short session can finish well above or well below the RTP figure. Plan for that spread.
Open the game rules before you stake anything. The RTP version we run is shown only there, so that is where to confirm it. Do not rely on a single RTP figure, because the series has other versions with their own RTP values.
Treat the top prize as a ceiling, not a target, when you pick a bet. The maximum win of Big Bass Splash is x5,000 of the bet, and it is a ceiling reached very rarely. Because it is a multiple of the bet, a higher stake raises the money at that ceiling.
You must be 18+ to play. Help is available from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, and you can register with BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Decide how much you can lose before the first spin, and keep that amount separate from money you need for bills.
Choose your stopping point before you start, and keep it after a win as well as a loss.
Set deposit and loss limits in your account before you play, so a bad session stops at a sum you chose.
If the game stops being fun, take a break or self-exclude through BetStop, and do not wait for the next bonus to decide.
Big Bass Splash questions
The answers that settle RTP, bets, top wins, bonus cost and volatility before you spin.
Big Bass Splash returns 96.71% of the amount staked over time. That figure is a long-run average across many rounds, not a promise for one session. The RTP table lists the other versions of the series with their own figures, so check the version you pick.
Bets on Big Bass Splash run from A$0.10 to A$250 per spin, the highest bet allowed in this market. The paytable uses A$0.20 as its example bet, and A$0.40 is the top example bet on this page. Choose a bet your budget covers for many rounds.
The maximum win is 5,000 times the bet. At the top example bet of A$0.40 that is A$2,000, and at the highest bet allowed, A$250, it is A$1,250,000. Nobody can know in advance whether a session reaches it.
The Free Spins round can be bought for 100 times the bet. At the example top bet of A$0.40 that costs A$40. The cost scales with the bet, so check the buy price before you confirm.
This slot runs high volatility. High volatility means results swing widely, so long stretches with small wins or none are part of the game. Nobody can predict when a bonus will come.
