If you like a fishing game with an ocean theme, Big Bass Splash suits that mood. It is a video slot on a 5x3 grid with 10 fixed paylines. Wins pay from left to right, starting on the leftmost reel, and two matching symbols are enough to pay on a line. The symbols include a red off-road 4x4 truck, a dragonfly and the cards A to 10.
If you want more than the base reels, Big Bass Splash adds Free Spins, Money Collect, Multiplier, Scatter and Wild. In Free Spins, the Fisherman Wild lands on every reel and collects the money values shown on fish. Each fourth Wild collected adds 10 Free Spins and lifts the collection multiplier up to level 4. Two Scatters in the base game bring near-miss teasers.

Learn how wins pay
Useful before your first spin, when you want the order of each round.
Choose a bet from A$0.10 up to A$250 before the first spin. The paytable uses A$0.20, and every payout scales with the bet you pick.
Read the grid as 5 reels by 3 rows with 10 fixed paylines. Wins pay left to right from the leftmost reel, and two matching symbols are enough to pay.
Watch for exactly two Scatter symbols in the base game. They either move the scatter reels one position down at random, or a hook lifts a reel to reveal another Scatter.
Look for the Fisherman WILD once Free Spins begin. It appears on all reels and collects random MONEY values from 2x to 5000x the total bet.
Decide your loss limit before the first spin, because no one can know how a session will go. If play stops feeling fun, call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858.

Grow your fish collection
Useful before your first spin, and again when the reels start showing fish.
Watch the fish, because a WILD Fisherman appears on all reels and collects the random MONEY values, 2x-5000x total bet, shown on fish. Every 4th WILD collected retriggers +10 Free Spins and lifts the collection multiplier through levels 2 to 4: x2, x3, then x10 at the maximum.
Base gameFish money collected
Set your bet and spin 5 reels x 3 rows with 10 fixed paylines, which pay left to right from the leftmost reel. When exactly 2 SCATTER land, a random respin-down moves the scatter reels one position down while the others respin, or a hook reveals another SCATTER.

Big Bass Splash demo
At Casino Kings you can open the demo before you decide how much to stake.
Choose the demo to play with no money, though it pays nothing. The real game needs a Casino Kings account and an age of 18 or older.
Start playingDeciding how long to stay on Big Bass Splash means accepting that the bonus round can come at any spin, and no one can predict when. How often it comes is not known in advance. The result of one session is random whatever the RTP, so a high RTP does not promise a win in any single session.
Picking a version to play comes down to its RTP, and which RTP version is running is shown only in the game rules. Open the rules before your first bet and read the RTP line there.
Deciding how much to bet means knowing the top prize first. The maximum win of Big Bass Splash is a ceiling reached very rarely, so treat the cap as a limit on the game, not a target.
Know what to expect
Read this before your first spin, while choosing a bet and a version.
Big Bass Splash has high volatility. Wins land less often than in low-volatility slots, but they can be larger when they come, so a session can swing hard in either direction. Nobody can know in advance how a given session will go.
You can bet from A$0.10 up to A$250 a spin, which is the highest bet allowed here. The examples on this page use A$0.20 and A$10 to keep the money figures easy to follow.
The RTP of Big Bass Splash is 96.71 percent, meaning A$96.71 is returned per A$100 staked over a very large number of spins. The other versions in the series run from 96.50 to 96.52 percent.
Start at the lowest bet of A$0.10 and watch how the features play out. Money values in the free spins are multiples of the total bet, so they scale with your bet.
The maximum win is 5,000 times the bet. At the top example bet of A$10 that is A$50,000, and at the highest bet allowed here, A$250, it reaches A$1,250,000. No player can predict whether a session will reach it.
The version that differs is Big Bass Splash 1000, with a maximum win of 25,000 times the bet. Those other four versions, including Big Bass Blast and Big Bass Trophy Catch, keep the 5,000 times cap.
Only players aged 18+ can play here. Get help from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, and self-exclude through BetStop.
Decide how much you can lose before you start, and keep that amount separate from money for bills.
Pick your stopping point before you start, and keep to it even when a win arrives. A big win can tempt you to keep going.
Set deposit and loss limits in your account before you play, so the amount you can lose is capped in advance.
If the game stops feeling fun, or you start chasing losses, take a break or self-exclude through BetStop.
