Big Bass Hold & Spinner Megaways

Big Bass Hold and Spinner Megaways™ is a video slot game with a fishing theme, developed by Reel Kingdom in collaboration with Pragmatic Play. The game features a familiar and light-hearted atmosphere, set against a backdrop of calm waters with lush greenery. Players take on the role of an angler, aiming to reel in winning combinations on the reels.

The slot utilizes the Megaways™ mechanic, presenting a dynamic grid layout. The main reels consist of six positions, with an additional top reel positioned above reels two to five. The top reel features three rows, while the rest have four rows. This creates a variable number of ways to win, with a maximum potential of 147,456 Megaways™. Each spin randomly determines how many symbols appear on the top reel, influencing the number of active paylines.

Beyond the standard gameplay, Big Bass Hold and Spinner Megaways™ offers several exciting bonus features:

• Tumbling Wins: Winning combinations trigger the Tumbling Wins mechanic. Symbols involved in the win disappear from the reels, allowing new symbols to cascade down from above. This cascading process continues as long as new winning combinations are formed, offering a chance for multiple wins on a single spin.
• Mystery Symbols: Both the base game and free spins can include mystery symbols. These appear as question marks and transform into random matching symbols when the reels stop spinning, potentially creating additional winning combinations.
• Free Spins: Landing three or more scatter symbols (represented by a large bass fish) triggers the Free Spins bonus round. Players receive 10, 15, 20, or 25 free spins depending on the number of scatters that triggered the feature. During free spins, special fish money symbols appear on the reels. These symbols hold a cash value that is collected by Fisherman wild symbols. Each Fisherman symbol collected increases a multiplier applied to the collected fish money values. Uniquely, this multiplier has no upper limit, so it can potentially grow significantly throughout the free spins round. Additionally, fish money symbols remain on the screen throughout the free spins, offering the chance to collect their value multiple times.
• Hold & Spin Bonus: Landing at least three Coin Money symbols (golden fish) triggers the Hold & Spin bonus. This bonus round takes place on a separate grid cleared of all symbols except blanks. The triggering Coin Money symbols become sticky on the grid and display a random cash value between 1x and 2,000x the player's bet. Players receive three respins initially. With each new non-blank symbol landing on the grid, the respin counter resets to three. The goal is to collect additional Coin Money symbols and potentially Diamond Money symbols (worth between 50x and 2,000x the bet) during the respins. If the total win at the end of the feature falls below 20x the bet, players receive three additional respins for a second chance at a bigger win.

In terms of symbols, the game features a variety of fishing-related symbols with high and low payouts. High-paying symbols include a float, fishing rod, tackle box, and various fish species. Low-paying symbols are represented by classic playing card suits (hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades) from ten to ace. The wild symbol, depicted by a fishing net, can substitute for other symbols (except scatters and bonus symbols) to complete winning combinations.
