How Big Bass It's a Whopper Jackpot Bonanza Works
Big Bass It's a Whopper Jackpot Bonanza from Pragmatic Play's Reel Kingdom platform brings the popular fishing slot series to a new level with four progressive jackpots. The game uses a 5-reel, 3-row grid with 10 fixed paylines paying left to right.
The Four Progressive Jackpots
This version adds MINOR, MAJOR, MEGA, and GRAND progressive jackpots that can trigger randomly at the end of any base game spin. The jackpot bonus game reveals one of the four jackpots by opening items until three matching names appear. Your chance to win increases with higher bet amounts, though any jackpot can hit at the minimum £0.10 stake.
FREE SPINS Feature Mechanics
The core feature triggers with 3+ SCATTER symbols (jumping bass fish). You receive 10, 15, or 20 free spins depending on whether you land 3, 4, or 5 scatters. During free spins, the fisherman WILD symbol appears on all reels and collects every MONEY symbol value visible on screen when it lands.
The game tracks all WILD symbols that appear during the feature. Every 4th WILD collected retriggers the feature with 10 additional spins and applies a multiplier to MONEY collections: 2x on the first retrigger, 3x on the second, and a massive 10x on the third retrigger. After three retriggers, the feature cannot retrigger again.
MONEY Symbol Values
All fish-themed symbols (group of fish, tackle box, fishing rod, dragonfly, and bobber) act as MONEY symbols. At every spin, these symbols display random values ranging from 2x to 5000x your total bet. The possible values are: 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, 200x, 500x, 1666x, 2500x, or 5000x. These values only pay out during the FREE SPINS feature when a WILD lands to collect them.
WHOPPER Symbol Collection
The WHOPPER symbol (a special fish) appears during free spins and gets collected separately. Collect 3 WHOPPER symbols to earn 10 additional free spins awarded at the end of your current round. This provides an extra path to extending the feature beyond the standard WILD retriggers.
Base Game Symbols and Payouts
At a £250 bet, the fishing bobber is the top symbol paying £50,000 for five of a kind. The dragonfly pays £25,000, while the fishing rod and tackle box each pay £12,500 for a full line. Card symbols (A, K, Q, J, 10) make up the lower-paying symbols with the Ace and King paying £2,500 for five.
ANTE BET Option
Players can activate the ANTE BET which increases the bet per line to 15x the base stake. This significantly increases the frequency of SCATTER symbols appearing, giving you more chances to trigger the FREE SPINS feature. The RTP remains at 92% whether playing with or without ANTE BET active.
Maximum Win Cap
The base game and free spins feature have a maximum win cap of 5000x your total bet. If you reach this amount during a free spins round, the feature immediately ends, you receive your win, and any remaining spins are forfeited. This cap does not apply to jackpot wins, which are paid in addition to any feature wins.
High Volatility Gameplay
With a maximum 5 out of 5 volatility rating, Big Bass It's a Whopper Jackpot Bonanza offers infrequent but potentially massive wins. The combination of high-value MONEY symbols, multiplier retriggers, WHOPPER bonuses, and four progressive jackpots creates significant win potential despite the 92% RTP.
Bet Range and Accessibility
Stakes range from £0.10 to £375 per spin, accommodating both casual players and high rollers. The minimum bet of £0.10 qualifies you for all four progressive jackpots. The game features a bright underwater lake theme with a forest treeline above, animated bubbles, and detailed fishing equipment symbols rendered in vivid colours.
