Big Bass Xmas Xtreme Slots
Big Bass Xmas Xtreme is a video online slot game which forms part of the popular franchise created by developers Pragmatic Play and released in November 2024. It offers punters another fishing adventure in the frozen tundra of Antarctica and brings a fantastic maximum win potential of 10,000x their bet.
A traditional gaming grid provides 5 reels with 3 rows and 10 fixed paylines. Winning combinations are formed when they land 3 or more matching symbols which pay from left to right on adjacent reels.
A glowing sunset greets players which shows a shallow frozen lake amidst some snow clad hills and Christmas related visuals pile into the bonus round showing a christmas tree, a ski boot and gift boxes.
A generous betting range offers options for every kind of player with the minimum wager per spin starting from $0.10 per spin and up to a maximum of $250.00 per spin. With an Ante Bet option players stake goes up to 50% to gain more scatter symbols on the reels for the free spins bonus feature.
A useful Auto-play button allows for punters to pre set the number of spins to game with which can help tremendously in maintaining a gaming budget. It is also a handy tool for those who dislike manual play.
The RTP (Return to Player Percentage) is 96.07% and this game plays with high volatility. This means that wins will not land with frequency but when they do arrive they can be substantial in size. This will suit enterprising players with deeper pockets although it will be more of a challenge to the risk averse beginner punters who will need to exercise a big dose of prudence and patience along the gameplay as the road can get bumpy.
The wild is represented by our fisherman friend and he can substitute for all the other gaming symbols but not the scatter and money symbols.
Gaming symbols include a fishing lure, a puffin, a fishing rod and a rucksack which award 200x, 100x and 50x respectively for the full five on a winning payline. The royal paying cards provide the lowest payouts of between 5x and 10x for five of a kind combinations.
Bass Fish are the game´s money symbols that can be collected by the fisherman during the free spins and each of these contains a random monetary value between 0.2x the bet and up to 1,000x the bet. During the base game at the end of any spin it is possible for players to be randomly awarded the collected value of all money symbols in view. Activating this feature sees a random multiplier applied between 1x and 50x to the total collected prize value before paying out.
Landing 3 or more scatter symbols triggers the Free Spins awarding players with 10 free spins. Prior to these beginning, a Pick feature starts where players will be awarded enhancements to take through to the Free Spins round.
Landing 4 or 5 scatters during the trigger will begin the Pick feature with 1 or 2 enhancements already revealed. Landing 2 scatters during the base game provides a chance for a third scatter to land with the help of two random features.
Randomly the scatters on the screen move down 1 position without leaving the reel area and a respin is triggered where the scatters move 1 position down and the reels without the scatters respin. A narwal may also randomly appear and transform one symbol into a scatter.
During the Pick feature, objects can be chosen to reveal modifiers. More free spins can be revealed with a value of +1, +2 or +3 to get 1, 2, or 3 additional free spins for the start of the round. A maximum total of 6 free spins can be revealed via these items.
Guaranteed fish is when up to 3 +1 fish items can be revealed to have 1, 2 or 3 guaranteed money symbols hitting the screen at every free spin for the duration of the round.
Up to 3 fisherman wild symbols can be revealed which will be taken through to the free spins and added to the collector meter at the beginning of the round. Removing Lowest Fish reveals up to 2 items that will see the lowest Money symbols removed from play from the Free Spins. Revealing one symbol removes the 2x value and revealing the second removes the 5x value.
During the free spins, the fisherman acts as a collector and collects visible money symbols during that spin which are then added to the collect meter above the reels. Every 4 collected wilds awards a retrigger, giving 10 extra free spins and increasing the money symbol win multiplier.
The feature can be retriggered up to 7 times with the win multiplier increasing from 2x and up to 50x with each respective trigger. Should a fisherman wild land with no money symbols then money symbols may be randomly added. Should money symbols land with no fisherman wilds a hook appears to pull up and reveal a fisherman wild. Should a fisherman wild land with no money symbols visible then a waterfall animation can occur at the end of the free spin which transforms all the symbols apart from the fisherman wilds into something else. At the end of a free spin, a hook may randomly appear, pulling up a reel to reveal fisherman and money symbols.
